Red face The good, the bad, and the ugly

Sorry fellow forum users, I have been out of the loop for the past month. Due to a series of events which lead to my posting yet

Still no photos yet, the reason being while I was home on my leave block my monte broke down before I could take it out for photos... On Christmas freaking Eve!!

(First image)

well thankfully im a little more clever than i give myself credit for, because i was 6k miles into this monte my warranty still covered it.

$2700 repair bill
-$100 (deductible i have to pay)
------
$2600

cost of the warranty... $2400, so at least i got my moneys worth and then some. I anticipated the transmission being the only thing to go out in the car thanks to you guys so thanks again!!

In other news i picked up Sergeant in the Marines January first

(second image)

the next few months will be pretty busy with training up until summer when i deploy so ill try to get that photo shoot done this weekend when i pick up the car!

If anyone would like to stay in touch when i leave just comment or send me a private message! internet access will be very limited on board ship and I would be more then happy writing to anyone of you folks

Sorry to hear about your breakdown, what a time of year for that to happen. Glad to hear you had the warranty though, at least that makes it a bit easier on you, and you did get your warranty costs back.

Congrats on your promotion

Welcome back. Sucks about the break down but sounds like some good planning paid off
