<VV> The " Fix it on the road" list of tricks

[James Davis]

Cellphone are nice when you have service,  but there are many places 
where there is not service say UT-12, US-264 in eastern NC and US- 41 in 
the UP.  Then there are places where the AAA card has no members in the 
local area and you have to find a non-member tow service.   Just so you 
know.

I carry a fuel pump(mechanical) and an alternator too.  An assortment of nuts and bolts, duct tape (of course)  and a coil of baling type wire.  The CORSA directory, cell phone and AAA card.
