 Being Retired now, I thought that it was time for a new name to this Blog |
What I Forgot! Two weeks ago today I flew to Atlanta and completed the purchase of our new (to us) van. It is a 2018 Dodge RAM Promaster Camper Van. It has just 25,000 miles on it though! Before I travel, I never sleep well, that Wednesday night was no exception. I couldn't sleep on the flights either (Bloomington-DFW, DFW-Atlanta). When I finally arrived in Atlanta, I was very tired, boarding on feeling exhausted. On arrival at Camping World, I went through a walk-thru of sorts. This meant I was shown everything about the camping portion of the van. Things like the Fresh Water Connection, how to drain the Black & Gray Water Tanks, connecting 'Shore Power' to the van, the amperage service of it, and more. After that, I met one of the men from the Finance Department to sign my life away. There was no financing though, we paid it in full with a Cashier's Check. But there was one important piece of paper that was never presented to me, thus it was never signed. The TITLE for the van. I feel half at fault in forgetting this, plus I was so tired that once I got to my hotel (5 minutes after leaving Camping World), I napped for two and a half hours! Still, I ask myself, how did a person in Finance with Camping World fail to have that available? Everything I signed that day is in a zippered nylon carrier, owners manual, operating instructions, all that and more. The title is not in that in it though. Also, we foolishly had Camping World in Woodstock Georgia order a new running board for us. One that extends to the passenger door. My wife is short (5 feet, 0 inches), and cannot make that step up to get into the passenger seat. I say foolishly because we should have told them we'd buy the van (the new running board was included in our purchase agreement, labor and all) once that running board was replaced. But, we agreed that the Springfield location could install it, so it was to be shipped there. We would coordinate with them to get it done. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid! I called each location about the title and the running board. I never got to speak to anyone about this (everyone was always busy or out that day), so I left message, after message. It wasn't until yesterday that I finally managed tp speak to the Service Manager at Springfield. He has started the ball rolling on both issues Finally! A little, I do mean A LITTLE progress on getting answers. Now, time will tell, like it always does. |
