I think some of you may be missing the point.

As I read Fred's post....it's not so much that there's an issue about who is held responsible for repairs.

It's about selling a vehicle to a close friend (and in this case a steady customer) and the subsequent possibility of strained relationships afterwards when something goes awry.

Even when everything is in writing......you still have feelings, relationships, and attitudes to deal with.
