What a guy spends on his truck or his motor is his business.
The way the builder has handled this case from day one shows obvious integrity and good business sense. Even though you have relocated half way across the country and aren't likely to use him again, he is determined to make things right.
I've seen guys take advantage of people just because they won't have to deal with them again, but this guy seems to be one of the good guys. There are few of those left these days gentlemen.
I would ask you, when everything gets worked out in the end and you are satisfied with the results, to post this guys business and name so that those of us who appreciate a good shop can add him to our list of reputable businesses.
Don't be offended by these guys giving their opinions. Even though sometimes there is a lack of eloquence, most people here are only trying to help you and this is a forum, and forums are always full of opinions. We're lucky here that for the most part, kids don't post here. I've been on other forums and it gets ridiculous when you get in an argument with someone and try to convince them of something and then find out the guy you've been going back and forth with is 12. Kinda redundant if you know what I mean.
Thank you and good luck friend, keep us posted, this is an interesting story.
