We filled up and then, when I started the car I had no guages ( all electronic). I pulled into the farthest bay and opened the hood to check fuses and connections.......my mistake.
I wound up, blocking myself from the store front. A old chevy van pulled in, the driver went inside.
The passenger yells at me that he wants a "dollar' for gas, who borrows a dollar for gas.
I told him I had my own problems today and could not spare anything., This guy says "That cadillac has made you a smart ass, we will take what you have."
I slam the fuse box & hood back down and head for the drivers seat, my wife is in the store so I am going to go get her.
Both of my dogs a mean old dalmation / grey hound and a bull dog that loves everyone popped out of the window and stopped this guy.
When I slammed the fuse box down it sparked and reconnected everything, I got my wife in the car and headed down the road..........the one thing I wanted was space.
My point is I can understand why some one would bug out of a gas station.
