Hats off to Kragen Auto parts

Well the one on Whitter blvd and Colima anyway.

Was runnign around today getting paint estimates for Epic (which were less than encouraging) and on my way home she belw a radiator hose. Pulled off to the side of the road about 2 driveways down from Kragen. I had to push her. Luckly the old guy there (think his name was Paul) was having lunch and saw me. He ran over to help. we got her into the parking lot. They let me barrow the tools i needed and all the towels i could hope for. They had the hose i blew too. And about an hour in the parking lot and $10 later Epic is back again. They really didnt have to go to all that trouble but they did anyway. So i public thank you to Kragen for thier help. The girl Lisa that works there was pretty cute too.

that's awesome, it's always encouraging for society when there's people that are willing to go that far out of their way to help someone. And hey, I think it's safe to say they've earned a regular customer?

No, i checked all of them. They were fine. Remember, i have been driving her for a good 2 weeks now on a regular basis. Maybe this one was just ready to go now. No biggy.

I'd rather not say what the paint estimates came out to be since they didnt make me all that happy. But its something to work on.

Didnt get her number... i should have. But i was covered in coolant at the moment and didnt think ti was a great time. I knwo her name, i knwo where she works, i''ll get around to it.
