Picked up Francis On Aug 5th at Ralph Schomp in Denver.
Now after 9100 miles and a few states later, some more than once, we are back home.
I wish that the experience of picking up the MINI would have been more special, It felt like the MA could not have cared that we were even there.
Spent a day in Denver then off to the Oregon coast for 3 days.
While in Oragon Francis had a wiring problem, Engine service light came on DSC was inop and the A/C was out also. Rassmusan MINI came through for us, got Francis in the next day, Found Four wires that had been mashed during assembly which caused a short. Rassmusen kept us right on trach with our trip, BIG THANKS. After that it was down the coastal Highway towards Las Vegas for 4 days. From there the Wife flew home and went back to Denver for a couple more days. While in Denver some AHOLE keyed the Boot just under the rear window My next stop was Yale Town MINI in Vancouver, Had a engine block heater installed and a Minor warranty repair done, Had to spend an extra day due to a part not in stock, and I was off for my last leg of my trip. Nothing major just 2000 miles of driving in Canada and Alaska.
Tomorow I'm getting the Keying fixed IE $350 out of my pocket.
Nothing but a Joy the whole way Home.
