Which is exactly why I am telling this story far and wide.

If Goodson blatantly lies like this, do you think I would trust them to
work on the car ? no way ! What else are they going to lie about ?
Who knows and I don't care to find out.

I can't believe anyone would put up with it, much less go on to buy a
car from them, but P.T. Barnum must be correct again.

If this steers anyone else away from those crooks, my work here is done.
