just got a call from the mechanic. the cost for the new radiator will be about $125 us. that’s for installation and everything. i have no idea of car repair costs. other than oil changes. and i certainly have no idea about car repair costs in thailand.
if you know – how much would a new radiator and install cost where you are?
That’s a sweet freaking deal. A brand-new radiator for our Trailblazer (dealership ate it) was $610, including installation. It was going to be $490 for a rebuilt, so I’m glad they sprung for the brand new
yeah, there are somethings that are pretty good here.
And I should say that I’m in Topeka, KS, USA,
.That might help 
i’ve driven through topeka
Get the thing installed NOW before he realizes he could charge you about 5 times that much.
they are on their way now! making a house call.
Wow! That is incredible news. We’d be looking in the $750 range. Yeah for Thailand.
yes, another reason to say yeah for thailand!!
That’s a great deal. Yeah, wheels! It is not great to be stranded – however, you can get around pretty well over there without a car.
almost anytime i’ve dealt with car issues i’ve feared i was gonna be hoodwinked. very happy to not have that concern this time.
Radiators cost about $125 where I’m from.
and how’d you find that out???
