Show Notes
Ron “flies without a call screen” and it turns into a perfect shop-week story: storm prep, snowblowers, parts backorders, and why last-minute panic shopping doesn’t help if your car isn’t ready. Ron breaks down the winter checklist nobody talks about—spare tire access, jack tools, paperwork, lights, wiper linkage, and real-world preparedness.
Plus, calls on: slow cabin heat in a 2000 Silverado, tow/haul not working on an ’02 GMC, and a 2016 Nissan Altima CVT slipping—what to test, what to expect, and when to go straight to the dealer/manufacturer.
