  July 8, 2002 - Muffler goes
  Being on the road for some service calls, I drove along the concrete blocks on Glenmore Trail eastbound, when I noticed a noisy muffler. At the beginning I thought it was another car.. but pretty soon I realized it was mine.
  The noise was getting worse by the kilometer... and fairly soon became embarrassing. When I was finished with my job, it was too late to call Lone Star Inc. (Calgary)... So I decided to give them a call in the morning.
  Driving home, a neighbour was at our place, ready to leave. When I drove up to park my car, she could not hold herself but asking: "Is this a 12-year old Chevy Truck or a Mercedes?"
  All I could say: "This is NOT a Mercedes - at least not anything like the ones, I was used to"
  As it turns out - it is the catalytic converter, which cracked on the right side and had to be replaced - finally done on July 26, 2002.
