Entry 309: The Huebners vs. Randy Reed (The Sequel)

When we last left you, Randy Reed had our car to fix (for the third time) and we were driving a lovely rental. Let's fast forward to today where for the 5th consecutive day we are driving the rental car. Our hopes were off the charts yesterday, but then once again they were shattered. Let us explain: yesterday (Monday) at 4:30 Lance got a call saying that the car was fixed and to return the rental. Lance was super excited and rushed to pick up Julie from downtown to go get the car. Julie rushed and we knew we would have to get the car to Enterprise before 5:30 to even have a shot of getting the car tonight. We made it to Enterprise at 5:15 and just as we were about to leave for Randy Reed, Lance got a call saying to keep the rental because something happened with the car. They didn't explain anything to Lance, just that the car wasn't ready.

Lance left a nice little voice mail for the service manager and the next day received a call. Apparently (who know if it is true or not), they did something with the steering column so that the steering wheel fit on backwards. They are now having a 3rd steering column overnighted to the shop and Lance was promised (again) that he would have the car very soon.

Stay tuned for updates and hopefully the release of the car.
