RIP Geo

New Years is always a time of change - often out of our control. Such is the case with my beloved car Geo. He will be missed....

Went on the blink last Thursday in the middle of the holiday stretch - how is that for shitty timing? Stumped the mechanic with a clutch pedal assembly that somehow snapped. Trouble was finding a salvage part to fix it since they no longer make them. And then also heavy labor because of involving the entire dash and steering column. I was told it is lucky that we were not driving it at the time as the clutch and brakes would have stopped working completely. So Tyler at Tires Plus advised me to make some bucks off it via Craiglist with someone who can repair it and use it as on off-road vehicle. He is going up north to Mora MN to become a 4WD plowing car on the range. Sad but true.

He has been a very loyal sporting pal for both Waylon and I with many adventures in the Region and will be missed. Anyone who knows a good dealer they trust - send them my way!
