Default A praise

You may find this odd, but I have a praise (actually 3)

We took our van to be serviced before we leave for Florida next week. DH took it to the shop. We got a call yesterday that the transmission is "dumping" it's fluid and the van can't even be driven back to the dealer to be fixed. DH and his dad have to trailer it there.

Here's my praises. Yesterday when we found out the van had to be trailered, FIL had just received the new car trailer he had purchased for the motor home. It was delivered yesterday!

I have had no transmission troubles with the van, but am very thankful that it happened now, instead of in the middle of the night when we are driving to Florida.

When DH and I purchased the van, we bit the bullet and purchased an extended warranty from Ford. It was $1,500 and we rolled it into the loan. The transmission is going to be expensive to repair, but it is covered under the Ford warranty, with only a $50.00 deductible.

Isn't it wonderful how God works in your life?

That's wonderful Danielle! I'm thrilled for ya.
P.S. we always buy the extended warranties, even though some people advise against em.....we've more than paid for everyone we've bought in repairs like you mentioned
