I would not give the Doc up no matter what. He is good and does his best to be fair in pricing. Always calls first and explains what is wrong, what he can fix and about what it will cost. I think we will keep him around a little longer. Even suggested if I was going to buy a new machine to check out the Royal. I told him it wasn't in my budget to be kind to me, LOL
