On the NYS Thruway our car's electrical system sh!t the bed. Zipping along at 75 mph and everything shuts down. We got it off to the side of the road and that was all she wrote. I believe it is the alternator.
Anyway got towed off and the guy has to bring us to the Ford Dealer in Newburgh NY. Sunday nite and of course they are closed. So we stayed the night in a motel. This morning the Ford guy said he probably won't look at it today. So I guess we are at thier mercy. They did say that it would be between $85-120 diagnostic fee. Hmmmmm......
We rented a car and got in around noon today. I will have to wait to hear from "Sunshine" Ford in Newburgh before I can go back down and return my rental and retrieve my Expedition. Newburgh is about 140 miles south of here I made up to Bennington in a little over 2 hours.
