I do have AAA and a cell phone. I know it will have it's quirks and stuff.. The mechanic in town is an AMC guy so if I get stuck and don't know what to do w/ somthing he can bail me out most likely... he has 2 AMC Concords, a summer driver and a winter beater, and a '63 Studebaker Larke, and hasn't really owned anything other than AMC's
