I use to think a cell phone and a computer was all I needed. Wrong! Until you use the new Iphone, Ipads, or ITouch you don't know how wonderful it is to have instant anything when you need it. When they say there is an app for that, there is! Ex: My car died in Walmart parking lot. It wouldn't start. I called AAA and it was going to be at least 3 hrs for a truck to come. The Walmart auto guy was so nice, he said the battery was dead. Well in my car the battery is not under the hood. He couldn't find it. It wasn't in the trunk. The manual said it was under the back seat. Well, fine but the guy could not get the back seat up at all, it was locked in place. I quickly used my Google app on my Iphone how to remove the back seat and instantly found a diagram and instruction how to remove it. The walmart guy said I'm sure glad to know this, I don't have the proper tool to remove the seat and I would have damaged the seat. We found on my Iphone how to correctly jump start the car without getting to the battery and I was able to drive it to the dealer. I was home in an hour and I would have still been waiting for AAA and all they would have done was tow it to the dealer that would have been closed by then.
