What part of Atl are you going to be in? Will you have a rental car? If you do have a rental car plan on coming by the house - approximately 1 hr south of Atl - interstate most of the way and easy (2 miles) drive from I75 to the house. Let me know.

Anyone near those areas want coffee and MB talk can post, PM or e-mail me.

I live in hotlanta area. I'll let you know if my schedule opens up. The wife, car and house keeps me pretty busy on the weekends. I'm sure it would be fun to chat and pick your brain. The master mechanics I know are GM experts and not diesel ones!
