Yesterday I was 3500 miles into the 9th day of what was supposed to be a 10 day road trip stopped at a distillery in Lawrenceburg KY and coolant was running out. Open the trunk and see it's bubbling through the reservoir cap.

Closest dealer is in Louisville, so I your the distillery to let it cool down a bit. Then I head out, keeping a watchful eye on the temperature. In the middle of nowhere, it spikes up to max. I immediately pull over and call for help.

Sheriff arrives 15 minutes later, and I wait another 45 for the tow truck. The tow to Louisville cost $270, and the a/c quit 20 miles away. Got to the dealer 15 minutes before they closed.
The finance man gave me a ride to the airport to rent a car. I am driving a Nissan Note

Hope they can get it fix tomorrow and it's "minimal" $.
