I took a trip to PA to see our best neighbor get married last summer. It was the most fantastic wedding I have ever seen. On the way back I had to sit in traffic in the middle of NY City plus while resting in traffic the temperature gauge kept rising plus I didn’t guess what was happening at first so I panicked plus pulled off the next exit I saw plus pulled into McDonald’s parking lot right off the exit. I sat for a moment, unsure of what to do, and was I able to drive home, which was another five minutes away? Did I have to wait it out, for how long? I had no idea, and all I knew is that our car was absolutely sleepy plus needed to rest for at least a few minutes. The odd area was, I could drive our car without the temperature gauge rising as long as I was actually driving – the minute I got stuck in the smallest bit of traffic was when the temperature gauge would start to rise again, and eventually after waiting it out for a short while, I decided to get back on the road plus see what happens; if I had to keep pulling over here plus there, so be it, was our thought process. I ended up making it house plus took our car to the mechanic the next day – turns out, our car was low on engine coolant plus our car was overheating. I had no method plus I had never evaluated it prior to this happening in the several years I had owned the car. The mechanic topped off our coolant plus just told me to keep an eye on it. Thankfully it was nothing more dire because that could’ve been a unquestionably lavish fix.
