i belive the date cutoff and deal are to take the load of the busy months of the begining of the season so cheaper if you get it done now and not have to get squeezed in later

That is correct.The cutoff date is the end of March.I should be able to do something after,just can't say right now what the deals will be.I'm expecting our labor charges to go up in April.

Suck ups
Really though - I agree.

All I have found to do for Don is constantly tell others he is THE one to work on their cars!! And to keep changing my mind bringing mine back seems to be a habit too.....

Not saying this to you chief I know you were joking but if I was a suck up I wouldn't tell poeple to go see him I would just pretend so I could get a discount. If your a friend your a friend if not you know all about it at least that's the way I work.
