I went this past Sunday to Denver to pick up my YJ. I had been working all weekend trying to get My full size Cherokee ready to drive in the snow. I needed three items. A starter relay(solenoid), a U-joint for the front left axle, and an Alternator.
I stopped at the Advance Auto in Denver. When we walk in, there is a very short little lady looks like Mexican decent, and another lady(both very young BTW, at least to me)
The little Mexican lady is having some issues, and she calls out for help from a guy in the back.
She calls out,......"Marco!....
I admit, I thought it, but my wife calls back POLO!
I hang my head, and stand and wait my turn.
So we go through all the regular stuff with the red headed lady. year, make, model, engine and so on.
She writes down the numbers for the relay, and the U-joint
now to the best part.
There was only a 63 amp available for the Jeep, so I asked her to look up something else. I knew I could clock it if I needed to. She was dumb founded when I said "Clock it"
So I had her to go get one off the shelf. and I would explain it to her.
I had her to look up several other vehicles, like a full electric Caprice and so on, trying to find a higher amp unit.
As she is scrolling what all is offered, I was reading some of what was showing up.
So, I read aloud,...."self exciting" Without missing a beat, my wife say,....That requires AA batteries don't it"
Once the little red headed lady and my face dimmed a bit from the full on red flush, I choose to get the 63 amp one and get out of there.
Careful where you take your wife!
