worriedU-Haul has a good rate on just the sort of cargo van that would do the job, but unfortunately, the nearest available such van is in Winnemucca, 130 miles behind us. We might have to spend $700 on a 10-foot U-Haul if we have to leave the Astro here in Elko for longer-term work.
On the bright side, we're not out the money on the hotel reservation in Wendover; they allowed us to change the reservation to a few days from now when -- if we can get the minivan working -- we planned on staying on the way home.
Nothing more I can do now. Must get a few hours of sleep before being up bright and early in order to be at the repair shop first thing in the morning.
