    Update. After a week away still no truck.

    Body shop agrees that the door isn’t aceptable and is going to be redone. When I asked about it not driving straight they said it is because it’s elextronic power steering and it is programmed to compensate for the crown of the road. I said so why does it drive straight then the wheel cocks an 1/8 to one side and the truck drives into the opposite lane?

    He said oh.

    Less than 20 min later they said that the stearing and vibration problems were becasie they did’t do the alignment after replacing the one front drive shaft and that it’s all fixed now. (Fastest road test and alignment I have ever heard of)

    Motor and trans issues they basically said insurance won’t even consider it untill it’s actuall broken. (Aprantly funny noises and jumping out of gear isnt broke)

    And they said the interior was all detailed and good to go.

    Untill I pointed out the scratches on the bezels all the missing cup and tray liners and the discolouration. That is still in the leather.

    So they are gonna order more parts and I’m being told hopefully Friday. (For the third separate Friday)

    So now it’s been 2 months without our truck
