I CAN...but I may not want to...
I just got hit with a surprise expense...looks like the brake booster in my motorhome took a crap. (brakes work, but pedal doesn't come back up by itself)
My preferred shop gave an over-the-phone estimate of $1400-$1600...PLUS I have to have it towed there...which, depending on what my roadside assistance says, could be another $1000-$1200...
BUT, there's a decent shop MUCH closer, owned by a member of the local Elks RV club...his over-the-phone estimate was around $600...but the rig will still have to be towed there...and that will be somewhere around $350-$500. (again, depends on the roadside assistance) If I have the local shop do the work, I'll probably have him change out the master cylinder while he's got it all out of the rig.
I'm NOT happy about the expense...but, whacha gonna do? (keep in mind, I'm retired, on a fixed income, and am NOT one of the ATOT millionaires...) This will have to come out of our summer RV budget...and will mean a few trips closer to home instead of 1-2 longer trips.
