Brandon,

I agree. I like Home Depot much better, but the closest one to me is three times as far. Maybe some day they will build one closer. I find prices are the same, especially since they both keep up with what the other is charging for something, but the personel is better to deal with.

Again, as far as me not going back and paying what I should have in the first place for the insulation. You have to remember, the girl made the mistake, not Lowe's. Now I know they make a ton of money on this stuff, but still, just because the cashier made a mistake doesn't give me the right to say, hey, her mistake, my fortune. To me if you know something is wrong and do nothing to correct it, it is stealing. I would expect anyone to come back to me to do the same thing, but I know it wouldn't happen. My conscience won't let me do it though. To me, this is a big reason prices are so high in the first place. It ends up hurting the honest folk, but I can sleep better knowing I've done the right thing. I'm a big believer in what goes around, comes around.


Gerardo,

yes, I finally got the van running good. I think, but I'm not 100% sure, it was the throttle body. The throttle shaft had a lot of slop in it and I got one from the same junkyard and rebuilt it. Again though, I done so much at one time, it could have been something else.
