A month before Christmas, the Queen decided she wanted a DR leaf vacuum, and of course, She also had to buy a new riding lawn mower matched to the vacuum. So the mower is delivered and KT got to try it out just mowing some of the Royal Lawns...then the Royal Leaf Vacuum arrived...a huge box which we had to go get at the shipper. Managed to get them to load it and when KT arrived back at the Castle, He chained off the box to a tree and drove out from under it. After unboxing and a few hours of assembly, oil and gas were added and it runs fine...gets connected to the mower and off the Queen goes! After a couple of hours, Queen rides up the driveway and says it threw the drive belt, so the rider is loaded in the trailer and back to the dealer...no problem, they installed the belt and when we get home the Queen drives it off the trailer and makes it 15 feet down the Royal Driveway and the belt breaks!
So back to the dealer...this is 2 days before Christmas, dealer says must have been cut and my mechanic did not catch it..our fault, if you pay for a new belt, we will install for free! So we wait and wait and wait...he had to order the belt and it was mailed by USPO, right in the middle of the Christmas package clusterflub!
Well, it finally arrived yesterday and they installed it right away, and KT picked it up this morning. Price of belt...$50. Got it home, Queen got it off the trailer and hooked up to the Royal Leaf Vacuum. 3 hours of hard work later, the setup is working fine and the Royal Yard is looking mighty fine! Dealer said next time I order something from those folks, it is being shipped fedex!
KT told him about his Cowboys Ave. sign and all the PO screw ups with its delivery!
