Decided to drive the new 74 to Auburn today, didn't make it home died on interstate 80 just passed Sierra college blvd. Smart guy that I am didn't bring any tools or even a flashlight, so I'm standing here waiting for AAA to tow it home.
Hope everyone else is having a better day

Not really sure what happen yet, filled up with gas pulled on the freeway then no power coast to the side. So noisy can't hear the fuel pump and no flashlight so just called AAA..... Wish they'd get here..and ironically I'm looking at the Porsche dealership standing here!
iPhones are great
