I want to thank everyone for their comments and input. I am going to check
out another shop this coming weekend just because we will be in town there
anyway, but I think Daphne's comments below kind of explain what has been in
the back of mind about choosing a dealership and having the selling dealer
also be your dealer for service and warranty work.
Thanks again for taking the time to give your opinions.
