FYI, your new P-car is probably sitting in Germany right now with one of these on the dashboard. European car factories supposedly put one on each car as it rolls off the assembly line to keep the battery charged while it sits, and they are removed at the destination port for return to the factory as cars are being loaded up for transport to the selling dealerships.....

Doesn't do any good if it's floating to the bottom of the ocean.

My car is on a boat en route to Santa Marta, Colombia and then San Diego, California (…and then to my L.A. based dealership).

She's traveling at a brisk 16.7 knots. Get it girl!!!!!!!!

I also need to correct my statement. It should read "sinking" to the bottom of the ocean.

If that happened I would be so
