Stepping on toes, being hostile is one thing. A year on a vehicle with no end in sight (& no idea of final cost) is another thing. Them asking how it is going and when will they be done is another. The way he is doing it, should be a huge price break.

Yeah, I'd definitely ask for a discount because of how long it has taken. But not until it is finished!

Believe me it has been in back of my mind about discount over time loss. Here is a kicker, guy and his wife are suppose to go camping in July with my sister and her husband. The guys mother died last month, he told my brother inlaw he might not have the money to go away, the funeral wiped out his savings. Hoping his need for cash will get the job done quickly now.

@Nyboy. Learning lesson for you or some of us skeptical posters. Here is his chance to break one off in you. A moral person wouldn't, friend of family wouldn't, you will see where he fits. For your sake, I hope my fears are unfounded. At this point, nothing you can do, so relax and think the best.

You think you're going to get a discount? Do you have anything in writing? I sure hope you don't get a surprise. I'm afraid I'm not that trusting of an individual.
