Request for help in San Diego..DONE DEAL

Pompano - 7-3-2010 at 08:52 AM

I have a request for anyone in San Diego.

I will be flying in to San Diego Lindburgh Field (SAN) around 9:30 - 10:00 Monday morning, July 5th. Two days from now.

The object of this trip is to retrieve my motorhome from storage in El Cajon..about 20 miles east of the airport.

Normally I would take a shuttle, van, public transport, etc and that would be that..usually a piece of cake...except for this time.

My problem is I have just found out that an idiot..yours truly.. left some lights on in the rig and all 3 batteries are now dead, including the engine starter battery. No electrical is available at the site to recharge the batts, so I am going to need a jump to get it started..and maybe make a short trip to a nearby auto parts store. Pretty sure I have booster cables aboard the motorhome, but not positive.


Sooo...I wonder if any nomads or readers in the San Diego area can do me a favor by picking me up curbside at San Diego airport (Monday morning around 10:00), driving the 20 miles on I-8 to El Cajon, and help me jump-start the motorhome with your vehicle? 460 Ford gas engine. A parts trip may be necessary, too. I would be glad to repay the favor in cash, dinner and drinks, or with a trade of bed, breakfast, beer, etc. at Coyote Bay in Baja next winter?

Sounds like more fun than taking a taxi and calling AAA.

Anybody out there free on Monday morning..July 5th? If so...Post here or U2U for more info.

Thanks, Roger/Pompano

Done Deal.

Another great thing about BajaNomads. Help arrives quickly..that took all of 27 minutes.

Thanks, David. See you on the 5th.

I'll be curbside...bags in hand.

Im in El Cajon Roger. I have a F350 Diesel with a high idle switch if you need a jump.

Thanks, Frank. That's good to know just in case. I'll U2U my cellphone number.

Hey, today's the day..It's our birthday.
Happy 4th of July
