First One Ever

Some years ago, The Fuzz and His Sweetie purchased what was to them, at the time, a Luxury Vehicle.
Well, time moves on and that guy was starting to give just a little bit of trouble.
There was a small problem of the battery draining on occasion when parked overnight.
The Fuzz had determined that the alternator was in fact charging it when running.  So now it was a question of tracking down the culprit.
Gone are the days when car repair was a simple matter of a bit of wire, or perhaps a few whacks with a hammer.
So rather than dealing with on-board computers and the like, it was decided to take a trip to the dealer's own little shop.  
And sure enough, these people were familiar with the situation.
And while it was not possible to determine the cause without extensive testing, they were aware of a good (50%) guess.
And it turned out that at least in this case, it was a good guess.

But this affair did suggest that considering how much out-of-town driving The Fuzz and His Sweetie were planning, it just might be time to think about a replacement vehicle.

They had been impressed with the service at this local dealer in the past, and were a bit fond of the model they had.  And it had given good service.  
So they decided to find a newer one.

Well, one thing led to another and they thought—
"Why not test drive a new one?"

And one thing did lead to another.

It may seem to have been a foolish move, but considering their age, travel habits, and the warranties involved…
The Fuzz and His Sweetie now have their first ever…
Brand new…
2017 model Luxury Vehicle!


And The Fuzz is happy to report that this Brand New Luxury Vehicle survived it's maiden voyage through the mountains to Charlottesville VA and back.
