ok...nothing too serious....but my battery died. Actually, maybe my alternator died - regardless, the battery is charging one way or another. My 'check gauges' light had been flashing, and i couldn't figure out why. Now i know.
I'm leaving work and the truck fumbles and dies on me. Ok, get an employee to give me a jump and let it run for a little. Employee takes off, and i drive about 20 feet when it cuts out on me. Lovely. So i push it off the to side of the rode, and start to walk home. I run into someone shortly after my walk begins, and asked them for a jump start. He says sure....and hops in his Civic Hatchback and drives to the Ty. We hook it up and the Ty fires right up.
For those who didn't watch my recent short videos....the Ty currently has an open 3" downpipe and is quite loud and powerful sounding. Needless to say the civic hatchback owner wasn't quite expecting this from a blazer.
He literally jumps back (he was standing gazing at my turbo when i fired it up) and his eyes get all big. I laugh, and he does too, and just says "ok...i'm going to get back into my measly little honda civic and go home now". I just laughed more and thanked him.
This time i drove the Ty 0" before it died. I managed to roll up the windows, and that killed it. So f it...i start walking home. Its only 2 miles.
1/4 mile or so into my walk, it starts raining. Cool. Maybe i'll call a friend to give me a ride. Nope....cell phone battery dies before i can make a call. Cool.
I love batteries :lol:
