Sometimes you just have to brag: I haven't written a blog for a bit now and I'm sorry about that...really! And I know that my blog's title is Trouble Free Auto Repair Advice - A Ladies Point of View - we'll I'll tell you sometimes a lady just has to brag; which is why you won't find much for advice today.
