After being hooked up for at least 6 hours, this battery of my car will not charge. Or maybe it's the charger. I've never been good with cars so I don't have a clue.
Yesterday, I go to start it and nothing comes on. Not even the lights, radio, anything. She's dead. After running to neighbor's house to neighbor's house with no answer, one randomly drives up the driveway. Thank god for latent neighbor sense power, right?
After jumping it, I realize that I have to get gas. Which means I need to stop my car. I take the chance and turn it off and fill up, and then realize that it isn't going to turn on. I walk into the gas station and ask if anyone can give me a jump. The only three people in the shop, works I believe, suddenly contract down syndrome. They stare blankly at me, and an awkward couple of minutes fly by without a word. Finally, another lady finishes up what she was doing and states that she will help me.
After she does, the others finally snap out of their retarded trance. One of them, who suddenly remembered he knows quite a bit about cars, told me that the battery was a cheap piece. This is contrast to what my father told me: it said it was top of the line.
On the way to my destination, I questioned him about the battery. Apparently, it was on sale/clearance. All 3 times I had to be jumped, each person related that the battery was junk.
So today, I sit awaiting a call so that I can jump this sucker back to life and take it to find out what the exact problem is (hint: It's the battery).
I'm buying a ship. Screw this land travel.
