From my perspective, I don't think Lee needs to be convinced that Joe needs a bigger radiator - he said so himself. Why go through all the trouble to prove something that everybody already agrees on?

The real question is can Joe and Lee work out a deal between them that solves the problem in a manner they can both get behind. Obviously, we'd all prefer that, but it isn't our car, nor our business (nor our money). That is a one-on-one conversation that doesn't need a public forum to debate it and whatever the $$$ are, is frankly none of our dang business anyway.

Joe and Lee need to have a conversation and hash that out - or not. Once Joe knows if he's getting a new radiator from Lee (or not), then the next steps become clear.

He either gets a new radiator from Lee, or he gets one from somebody else - that's it.

After 388 posts, there isn't more to discuss and ponder, we've all done as much as we can.

I wish them both the best . . .
