Car-mageddon

AAA says I need a new battery and the transmission is hosed. I still think there's an electrical problem. Grrrf. I was disappointed with AAA.

The guy from the shop that rebuilt the transmission says the rebuild is still under warranty as far as he's concerned and will fix it.

Tomorrow it gets towed there.

This sounds like major good news to me. I think a transmission runs around $4K.

Try $2.1k. That's what it said on my receipt from last March.

Good!

Be sure to have SOMEONE check the alternator whilst you're at it.

AAA said the alternator was fine (they checked it).
