Well I'll add to the story....
Friday morning I go to town (Woodstock Va) to get gas for the lawn mowers,At local 7-11. get gas 98 Jeep wont start-no spin just clicks-get a jump -still nothing. This is 11AM .So call AAA for a tow to garage that's just down the street. Tow company is on other end of town 5 min away if they catch all the lights(4). So AAA says 1hr wait. Ok call wife to come get me and wait.
Waited the hour,,,no show. Called AAA again...wait another hour. NO .key is in it they can pick it up unattended and we go home.Message on home answering machine says pic up at 1:45, So ok get on with my day.
7AM Sat morning Dog goes off with knock on door Sheriff is standing there, Asks if I drove my jeep last night, No... Jeep was to have been towed to local garage for repair,,well it wasn't.Town cops worried that it had been sitting there all night.Got everything answered to all the LEO,s satisfaction. I was PO,d.
Another call to AAA same runaround,,,will pick up at 9AM Sat morning.
Waited awhile, as I had other chores to do.,drove to town where I expected the 98 to be sitting at the shop. NO. Mechanic was there tending to the car Wash,he is close friends with the tow company drivers, told him what was going on, then drove to the 7-11 to see if the 98 was still there,,it was.Went back to the garage where the mechanic was on phone to his friend. They were in a meeting ,bu would be on the was soon. They had not been notified about the tow until 9am this morning.So I leave to go home (in my 96 XJ).
Go about 1 block and it dies in front of the Hospital,fuel pump..done it before.could not get it off the road,Another sheriffs deputy stoops .I try to get it going by hitting the tank/pump area No Joy. So then town cop shows up must be moved because its in the road,OK. you call for tow ,maybe get faster service,Also tell them Jeep at 7-11 is mine too.We all get a laugh at that. So tow showed up.puts 96 on roll back.cops and I leave, go to garage to wait for wife to pick me up.Other wrecker shows up with the 98. so all is good,Roll back driver does not charge for tow,Said he was at 7-11 three times for fuel yesterday and did not receive call to pick up 98.I believe him.
Wife did not drive her 99XJ to pick me up was afraid .
AAA want me to rate their service.....:flamemad:
