man what a day......we were out checking a few houses/neighborhoods and such and the tranny in our 2006 jetta took a crap. "it's the most advanced auto tranny vw ever made"....apparently it's not so great, it felt like the servo which kicks it into the forward gears died, revs but no go.....
hopefully it won't be a big headache as it is currently at a local VW dealer and being fixed under warranty, they also provided us with a 2008 jetta to drive while it's being fixed, i'm just hoping it's ready by thursday so i can drive it before we make the trip back home to make sure it's ok.....worse case we'll have to spend a little extra time here.....but don't want to spend the extra $$$ to do so.
i basically found a dealer using the internet on my cell, called the service manager (because he is the guy who has all the authority in that department), after explaining my situation he said to just get the car to him, it's under warranty....so far so good, they spoke a promising game, they'll get a nice letter if they come through

so today we saw a few houses and spent the afternoon dealing with some really pleasant people in a potentially problematic situation..........the dealer will be calling me with a dignostic either tonite or early tomorrow, so let's all cross some fingers for me

the traffic didn't seem to horrible yet, tomorrow we are heading up to ocala as i have a company who REALLY wants me to come work for them, we'll see if they pay
if i take a job in ocala we'll probably move to either howie in the hills or tavaras......which we're going to check out on the way home from ocala.....
