Ian was quite helpful, as I was traveling through heading South to Missouri, My alternator went out and I couldn't afford a new alternaso, so Ian charged my battery to keep going for a while and he had no problem helping me out he was kind, Intuitive and it didn't bother him at all to be a helping hand, thank you Ian
