Car Trouble

A good friend of mine here is moving to the USA to go to school. Today he picked me up from the BLC to go into town so that I can help him search for housing online. We had barely gone 2 minutes down the road when we passed over a man-hole cover. It wasn't a stable one and flipped up crashing onto the bottom of my friend's truck. After that, the truck started making terrible noise, so we slowly and painfully drove to the other side of Sipe Sipe in search of a mechanic. Luckily we found one. We waited for the next 2 hours while he located the broken part, took it off, cut the bent metal in half, reshaped it, fused it back together, and reattached the piece. Grand total...about 10 bucks. Gotta love that.
