Topic #41335 10 posts Started by celi_gt_racer
My baby turned over 150k on the way home from school this mornin! I present to you the milestone Odometer pic (ignore the crappy painting - it came that way on the car)

Then when i went out to get a bite to eat in town to night - my baby played a little practical joke on me!! I pulled off into the gym parking lot to talk to 1 of my friends that was inside, cut the car off, locked my doors and went inside - came back out within 10 mins....unlocked my door, hopped in, turned the key - preceded to hear CLICK and all my dashlights faded off...... took nearly an hour to get my dad out town w/ sum cables, after trying to push the car off to no avail.... but it started right up on the cables - we're assuming the battery cell went bad frown.gif ... i think she was celebrating her 150k mile anniversary too! w/ a little practical joking

Here she is - safe back in her little hole after a night of crazyness
