Jay Needed 2X4s and Black Visqueen

We had to go to Bay City again, to buy 2X4s and black visqueen. It took us about one hour to purchase these items and head back towards home. On the highway, our Jeep Compas bogged out, I had to pull off the road. This happened five times, so we finally turned the AC off and our vehicle stopped acting up. When we finally got home, I dropped Jay off at the trailer. Then, I headed to Janis Auto in East Tawas and Mike hooked it to a scanner that diagnoses what's wrong. Apparently, my 4 wheel drive and the four wheel brake system isn't working properly. I made an appointment to get it fixed, early Tuesday morning. If I don't turn the AC on, there won't be a problem driving it around town. Photo: Borrowed from Pixabay

I'm wondering what Visqueen is. Is it stuff to blacken tyres?

Visqueen is black plastic, similar to a garbage bag except very large. We need this plastic to cover the high grass on our lot, to kill it. The neighbor's are complaining that we're not mowing enough.

A bit worrying that the brakes are acting up! Feels like a long time to Tuesday!

He said it was only bad on one back tire. The other brakes are working good.

It was good luck that you were traveling together today. And you do not have a long wait to have it in for service. I hope that you do not have alot of driving between now and then, be careful if you do please.

It will be fine, unless I turn the AC on. Then, it stalls.

Because cars can have problems with AC systems when I got my car long ago back in NYC I got a car without AC and a sunroof you can open to catch the breezes,

We have hideous winter weather. I could never buy a car with a sun roof.

I'm sorry you have to get the Jeep fixed. I'm glad you can still drive it. Have a good day.

I'm glad you can get it fixed. In this heat, not being able to use the AC sucks.

The AC has been a God sent, during this hot spell we're having.

When my relatives any myself used to own a Nissan Altima auto, we had to not use the air conditioning inside the auto on a hot day outside due to the car breaking down sometimes.
