Replying to: deltheking (Jun 11, 2009 2:43 pm) My last dealer financed car was a problem - over 10 years ago, and the finance company every year without fail tried to slam me for insurance verification - they couldn't be bothered to make a call to an 800 number to verify coverage which i had had at the time with the same ins company (USAA) for a dozen (now 25) years. That more than anything else made me mad about dealer financing.

Replying to: oldfarmer50 (Jun 22, 2009 8:07 am) Well that is the thing.... the information I am getting is that it is supposed to start July 1st..... But there is way to much involved.... My understanding is that dealers have to be approved for it, or be signed up for it.... What ever it is, this will be interesting to watch and participate in. GP |

Replying to: fezo (Jun 19, 2009 6:59 pm) turns out tv is covered under an extended service plan, so was my mom's car (about a month left). my wife brought the computer to some of the great computer geeks she works with. they think it is fixable and are thinking the heat sink got disconnected from the cpu, so it overheated easily. we hope that is what it is.

Replying to: explorerx4 (Jun 22, 2009 4:27 pm) For your sake I hope it is fixable. However, I never heard of a heat sink that became disconnected. It's not an electrical component that is electrically connected to anything. It's a passive mechanical thingy that absorbs heat from electrical/electronic components so they don't burn themselves up. They are finned something like a like a radiator so they have more surface area for the space they consume. When the right size is used for components that generate heat they are usually quite effective. I think something got lost in the translation but like I said, I hope it is fixable and without great expense or loss of memory (computer memory that is). jmonroe
