Well, there is a first time for everything. The car started acting funny on the New York throughway south of Buffalo, electricity was going off and on and the car was bucking and the speedometer would go to zero and then go back up, vmaybe the lights were going off and on - anyway we got off the highway, came to a service station, got some gas cause we needed gas and when we tried to start it up again it wouldn't start: battery was almost dead. This was in Angola, NY.
So - call AAA. Tow truck came pretty quickly, but had no room for passengers. Said he would take car to Service Tech in Eden, NY, next town over. We were on our own. While trying to figure that out, a local woman offered to drive us to the Angola Motel , which is where we are now. An angel! Now we'll have to get ourselves to the mechanic in the morning. I suspect the alternator. He is a NAPA dealer so maybe he 'll have parts.
This is a first in all our travels.
