Total with tax $275. For a thermostat!!! Had one go bad in my '48. $12 total. Hmmmm!
My '48 is 70 years old. Wonder if any of these late model wonders will be on the road in 2089.

Or you could have taken it to Autozone where they will read the codes for you for free, and then replaced the thermostat yourself.
