Now onto Thursday morning. Essentially we are no further ahead. Techs come in and we review where we are. After they had a night to sleep on it they felt the two most likely suspects were an ignition control module and a crank sensor. I figured for the $150 in parts lets just get it done. Baierl was also nice enough to have a porter give me a ride to Pittsburgh tire to pick up two more tires. They also installed the two new tires too (spin balanced). About noon on Thursday we were again cleared for take-off.
But before I proceed any further I just need to reiterate just how great the guys at Baierl Truck were.
1 They pulled the coach in and started working on it with in 15 minutes of us getting there. They were ready sooner than we were.
2 service techs actually listened to what I said was happening and reviewed the possible causes
3 They allowed us to "camp" overnight in their lot. They provided a 20 amp electrical hook up. They offered to run a water line and to leave their BBQ grill outside for us to use.
4 They gave us a ride to Pittsburgh tire to get 2 new tires
5 One of the employees offered the kids ice cream sandwiches when we pulled up (Schwan's) then again before we left
6 Another employee ran out Thursday morning and got us a gift card for Burger King!
7 After we had left we went up the street to Burger King, get a call from Baierl, apparently my wife had left her cell prom in the waiting room. They sent an employee up to Burger King with her cell phone.
8 All the employees were tolerant of our dogs (all 4 of them)
9 Unlike the other shop Baierl did not take advantage of our situation and I felt they were fair with their billing.
I would not hesitate to return to Baierl Truck if I'm ever in the area again.
From Baierl we were 40 miles closer to our destination than we were from home. We made the decision to keep heading for Ephrata Pa and if we break down again to turn around and head for home.
