I was taking my daughter on a road trip from new orleans to washington dc for her spring break when our car started acting up. We were going to see the capital and learn about the founders of our great nation. We get to chattanooga, and the car won't go into reverse. I'm in the middle of the parking lot for the gas station and my car will only go forward. This is a problem, but I'm thinking that I don't want to ruin my daughter's week, so maybe I'll just watch it and have it fixed when we get back home. unfortunately, we get back on the road and the car is jerky when it changes gears on some of the hills. I can handle being careful where I park and making sure I don't have to back up for a week or so, but I can't do the whole breaking down on the expressway thing.
