'Talk about Kia"s  Michal*s gets around town!  It got cover under insurance
for deer hit, but now found an oil leak to fix so it been gone over two
weeks.  The other older one just got oil and filter done, needs 100s of
more repairs done later. More economical than getting a newer one.  The
Ford dealer has one on the lot called to inquire as it had Michaels in for
air check with it equipment, not at the other place.  Need a job to get
another.  Like having two cars.
