NQ, sorry about the battery. I had mine die once while clear across the city, on a hot summer day. I got a jump, and then car would stay running as long as I didn't let it idle, then it would stall. At every light, I had to slam it in park (auto trans) and rev the engine. I had to choose not to take the freeway that day... sooooo many lights. Soooooo many angry, honking drivers the many times it stalled....
Then I had to deal with getting it all sorted so I could get across the city again, since it was the first day of a week long class for work. :-/
