Happy to see this one pop back up to the top. I had missed this report back in 2012.

Brake fluid does not taste good by the way.

You develop a taste for it over time . . .

So, the master cylinder repair is still holding some 25,000 miles later.

That's a great idea Kit, maybe magnetic so it could be transferred between vehicles and reflective or safety orange. :salute:

Colin. Belk’s parking lot simply doesn’t deserve you.

Also—I am now, officially, going to tell every nosy cop and security man that sidles over in the midst of a breakdown that Sunshine’s disabled. An IAC phrase. Thought: Maybe, once yer “shop” gets rolling, you should design a compact, roll-out sign that’s pretty and that say “Disabled Bus. Repair in Progress.” Or somethin’ like that. I’d sure as hell buy one. It’d get good use too!

The pleasure of sizing up each unique situation requires the ultimate in ambiguity. Therefore, I prefer to let the hapless observer come to me ablaze with curiosity, indignation, or whatever else they choose to bring to the party.
