I left Myrtle Beach this morning at 6:30, heading for North Charleston with 4 Honda Civics for the dealer there. About 20 miles from my destination,
BOOM!. Oh boy! At first I thought it was a tire. I wish it had been that simple. I'd be home now if that were the case. Instead, I blew the cast aluminum air intake off the turbocharger. The fucker broke off all the way around it's circumference. I limped into the city at a max speed of 45mph.

But, being the team player that I am, I did make the delivery.
Our shop in Walkertown is off for the weekend. The shop manager says he has the part in stock. That's good, because the only two parts dealers on line, that claim to have it, are both in Canada.
Shop boss says we'll see if there is another driver that will have a load that's coming this way...MONDAY.
Meanwhile, I'm stuck at the Sleep Inn in Summerville SC for the duration. Well, the room's clean and cold. The TV is in good working order and there's a Cracker Barrel next door.
