Well, I did say "about"! I thought Loves Park was near Rockford. I can't find Loves Park on my Rand McNally Road Atlas. It will still take more than 1 hour each way to the Porsche dealership near Middleton off the outer loop.

Not to split hairs, but it did cost the PO...and in return he did "charge" you for the true cost in some way. No free rides.

I agree with you 110% Dr. Kill. Trust and quality always trumps price. In fact, a poor quality job can be very expensive at-the-end-of-the-day.
