You remember the movie "The Christmas Story" and the kid stuck his tongue on the flag pole and it froze? Well I tried that on my Astro and it really works!

Washed and vacumed it today, after doing a 600 mile roundtrip to my moms and back in upstate NY, over the weekend.

Pushed Green through an intersection and over to the side of the road, popped the hood, wiggled some wires, and got back in hoping that I re-established the ground. Started it back up and drove it home.
