    I'd go down to where the Pilot truck stop is on Laraway and then take Rt53 up to 80. Take 80 to 394 and then 394 to Sauk trail.

    I never had that problem with them. That place is notorious for putting boxes on junk chassis. Then you gotta go to the roadability line and sit and wait because of how long it is. They won't let you get a flip either without first having the mechanic check out the chassis.

    Yup. If its on a bad chassis the mechanic has to give you a "flip ticket" if he's not able to fix the problem. If you try and go to the flip area without going to the mechanic first they will make you go... they are ridiculous
