A number of years ago my family and I were on a long road trip. I noticed a problem with my car--slow acceleration, lurching, etc. I suspected transmission. By the time we got to--I believe it was Charlotte, NC--it was really bad. We checked into a hotel and I began looking in the phone book for transmission shops.
Next morning I took the car in to the shop I had (blindly) selected and told the guy, "I think my transmission is going out." If ever there was a pigeon who volunteered to be plucked, it was me.
The guy took my car for a drive. He then put it on the rack. He drove it again, then back on the rack. He had two mechanics inspecting it. The entire process took about an hour and a half. When the guy came into the waiting area with a serious look on his face, I was ready for the worst. Instead, I was flabbergasted when he said, "Sir, I don't think you have a transmission problem. I think it's a bad fuel pump." He even recommended another shop to take the car to.
I asked how much I owed for the inspection. He said, "No charge." I couldn't believe it.
When I got home I not only wrote a letter of appreciation to the transmission shop, I sent a copy to the newspaper there. I hope they published it.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
