AT&NB will do anything to keep me from driving the new convertible! He drove it last week.....and I spent Sunday cleaning it (AND my coupe) so I could drive it this week, especially since the temps were going to be in the 60's!

Monday morning I go happily out the door to get in the vert, turn the key and all I get is 'click click click'......DEAD BATTERY!!!!!

Ron....I actually did call Steve that morning and told him to get me a new battery for Valentine's Day!!!

Hopefully I'll have a new Optima this weekend!

JJ!

Then she kills the battery in the vert………….
STAY AWAY FROM THE 97’
The 1st red top had crack in it…………..only noticeable after starting it
The 2nd was DOA with only 4.5 volts………..

Maybe she was standing right next to him and watching over his shoulder! Somehow we know it was her fault and not Steve's....

Tread lightly Steve. She may change the lettering on your back window.
