Death of a Saturn

Tuesday night I'm heading up a major artery from downtown when I notice my car is losing power. The bucket is 13 years old and has 141,000 miles on it so I knew it wasn't going to be around much longer. My only question was if I could get it home.

Apparently not. As I hit each cross street I felt the energy being sapped out of the mobile. 38th street... 42nd street... 49th ... 52nd and then the car dies. I managed to get it off to a side street and was pushed to the curb my some helpful bystanders. The car remains there (I think) 3 days later.

I went out and bought a new car not wanting to mess with any repairs as I have done enough of that for the past 3 years.

Good to the last drop....
