I appreciate it, thstone!

I'm picking it up tomorrow (Thurs) now. Went by tonight and they ran into a bit of a snag. When they replaced the left rear strut, they found it had been mangled and the bolts were loose. Also, the wheel bearing on that wheel looks like it had been replaced, and it was extremely loose. Torqued to less than a third of what it should be. Not grinding yet, but it was chewing itself up. So, new bearing. He's not charging labor on that one since he was in there already.
Belt, air and cabin filters were original and were all literally crumbling apart.
Weird, it's had some proper maintenance done, yet other common things were ignored or done poorly.
But she's back to 100%, and I'm anxious to see how she drives now.
