So, my wife is in naples today, which is about 160ish miles south of here, and because of the bad weather, they wanted everyone to drive in one van to the place their going.
Well, the alternator went out on the van on the way down, and they barely made it to the school. My wife calls me and says the guy isn't worried about having the alternator replaced, and is just gonna have AAA come and replace the battery.
So she called me, wanting me to come down and pick her up because the guys an idiot, and they're probably gonna end up stranded halfway between st pete and naples. So I offered to drive down and replaced the alternator...FOR FREE! She calls me back and said they guy chewed her out for calling me and that he has a "handle" on the situation.
We'll see who's laughing last when he's stuck in the middle of BFE on the side of the road with a dead alternator and a dead battery.
The guys obviously an idiot, so I'm willing to bet he's going to be driving back with the radio on and the AC cranked, so that's gonna be draining the battery even more. And Oh yea, they're gonna be driving through Rita's feeder bands, so that means headlights and wipers, yet more things draining the battery. This is all on top of driving through Naples 5 O'clock traffic.
Who wants to start a pool. I'm betting he gets stuck in Sarasota.
