Picking up at JFK......never again. 7 trucks ahead of me and two of them have been here for a couple of hours. And the tolls the past two days are killing me. Smh! Ok I'm done complaining for now.

Lunch at panda express...rice was burned, egg roll was cold and soggy and my orange chicken was 90% breading and 10% chicken. Very disappointed. Next time I'll try the panda instead.

Did you go back and tell them? Companies need feedback. Good or bad.

Well today not starting off very good. Van won't start. Jump start fail, seems power not going to alternator, told battery has enough power should start, possible corroded wire. Getting towed for repair :(

I had similar problem a few yrs ago. My voltage would go up and down but my battery and alternator tested fine. Turned out that the cable going from the alt to the bat was burned out for some reason. Guess it was a common problem with some of the model years. Mines an 08

Yeap there is a fused cable running to the battery on some years that had known issues with corrosion, I had one replaced.
