Losing the clutch sucks..... especially if that motor trans set up is like my cavialier........ BIG JOB!!!!!!!!

in the transverse mounted engine set up you got to basically pull the whole front end of the car apart.
Book hours to do my clutch (what a mechanic gets paid to do it) is about 9 hours

We thought that you barely going anywhere after hearing the car bouncing off the rev limiter and you dropping the clutch you were having problems

HEY. It was 11:45 and nothing but Stop&Shop was open. I looked for clothes line (that is what we always use, but the line gave out after towing like 6 cars lol) but they only had twine. TWINE. I tell the guy I am towing a car, he shows me twine.

But yeah it was that or nothing so...

AARP? The American Association of Retired Persons? How are they going to help you? Electric scooters don't make a lot of torque.

I think, beyond a tow strap, you need to get a few phone numbers from folks in the club so you can call them instead of the non-driving boyfriend, when you need help.

And tell lame-o BF to go get his drivers license anyway, whether he drives or not. Photo ID is important in many ways.

He can't, he doesn't have 6 points, otherwise he would get it. And I have some numbers, but my phone died. As much as I love you guys I don't have the capacity to memorize your guys numbers lmao

I have to get AARP. My dad is an old fart and since he is paying (and it's cheaper) I have no choice.
