Glad everything worked out, hope there wasn't any (or much) damage done to the car!

half way home... 2:30am & I've made it to Binghamton... Should roll into Buffalo at sunrise.

Ended up w/problems w/the front toe in & resorted to locking the steering wheel... the wheels were all over the place w/the wheel unlocked. The front tires will be worthless by the end of the trip but that's the sacrifice...

You guys are saints. Words don't do it justice

Outstanding support team. Thanks Aaron and dad for the wheel, Richie for being the dispatcher and the Non-club for creating this network.

My ass is dragging. 5 hours sleep and I'm back to work since 6:30.

Laurel, NJ for the weekend (cousins wedding). I am glad that yous guys could come through as I would have been busy until tonight. Gotta love this place (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Good luck. But remember, friends don't let friends go to Jersey. Use a bridge/tunnel and take your chances. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

'Teeners: i was a founding member of NEATO and LiMBO, the VW van clubs. For about 15 years they have had a "Transporter Tourist and Traveler Directory", updated in ink-printed about biannually. It sounds like some of you in NJ have a good personal network, (is it something I can sign up for in my area--DC?), but maybe we could use a printable list. The TTT list has options of: call me, tools available, space available, tech expertise, etc. Lots of good stories about members bailing each other out of difficulty. Makes for real peace of mind to have the directory in the glove box when you set off on a run. Can't we do that--maybe 100% electronically--print out the area you want at home and take it along? -Chris H. , DC suburbs

Way to go guys! Glad you made it home Pete. So where did the wheel end up? How many cars did it bounce off of before coming to a stop? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

That sounds sweet. Last night's road service was provided by a 74' Westy. A list does exist on this forum and others have printed it out in the past. I have never used it. I got great support by starting a thread when I drove from NorCal to NJ last February. The support on this sit is unique, much like the VW crowd. Some how assistance is always close by. The membership fee to be a non member of the non club is better than AAA. Lets all pony up!
