I recently learned from my local dealership that they have just one SVX-certified technician left in their garage. And of course, he's not getting any younger. In addition they told me that my 92 was one of just two SVX's that they still serviced.
That got me to thinking that now is probably the time to look at parting company with my 21+ year old friend who joined my family at the young age of just 36 miles. After all, she's become of legal age, yet hasn't seen all that much of the world having not quite reached that 100K plateau (at least as of this post). Sadly, I think it's time for her to move on and spend her time doing other things with someone who'll continue to care for her.
