my 2000 ford focus died.  well it's most likely the alternator.

the car wouldn't start, so i got a jump, it ran fine but then the battery light came on, i let it run for a few minutes just in case it was going to die on me again, it didn't so i drove 50 ft our of my work's parking lot only to have it die on me on the road.

my cell is at home so i had to come back to work and arrange a tow

i'm fucking 30 miles from home too.

argh.

Argh.  I'm sorry :(

Honestly, I don't know how people drove before cell phones any more.  i get nervous when I realize I left the building without mine.

If the car died while driving, then yeah, hopefully that's all it is.

Honestly, I don't know how people drove before cell phones any more.  i get nervous when I realize I left the building without mine.

Me too.


I hope the car isn't too difficult/expensive to fix!

Alternators aren't that expensive I don't believe, should cost $150-$200.  Still sux though.  :(

Yeah I know, but was just saying in terms of car repair costs it isn't that bad.  But I understand the lack of monies.
