Of course the original bad news was that we dropped an injector and on our way home from purchasing our Eagle. This happened Monday night and we have been waiting patiently at our friend's house in Montgomery, AL since. Found out today that it was running and ready right at closing time. That was the good news.
Bad news was that they called me on the way to pick it up saying it was smoking badly and that it looks like there was more damage than they first thought... Ugh! Also, it blew out part of the exhaust and did not sound good.
Great news... They had it running while we were on the way to pick it up and from the time they called to the time we got there, it completely 100% cleared up. Apparently, it was just loaded up from the blown injector.
So we will remain in Montgomery until Monday because we are not going to drive it home with that big exhaust leak. Don't want to mess up any valves now that it's running again. So here we are still, trying to relax and wait it out. It's been quite a trip so far! Today is day 9 overall.
We must be approaching some kind of record for longest trip time-wise to pick up a bus!

Thanks, Clifford 8). Actually, it wasn't hard.
I think Marc got a great bus, especially for the money.
Enjoy the bus, Marc!
