Funny story...

I called information and asked for a cab service in Garden City. The lady gives me 3 #'s so I call the first. I ask for a CAB to pick me up at Garden City and bring me to Levittown. He says ok. I go outside me work building and see a limo. I'm like, I hope that's not my cab!!!! Who else would it be for though at Verizon? I asked the guy if it was my 'cab' and he said yes, we only have town cars or limos. I was like, you could have told me that ON THE PHONE when I said cab! It was $25 to go less than 10 minutes. I took it cause I didn't want to wait any longer for another. Oh well!
P.S. This 'limo' was gross, dirty and had purple tinted windows.

That stinks - but it's pretty funny you got a limo.
As for your car, does it do anything like acting like it might want to start?
Good luck!

Yes, it sounds like it wants to start but doesn't.

that is crazy!
I know this sounds weird, but do you have a full tank of gas in your car? that same thing happen to me last year, only I didn't have a lot of gas in my car and it wouldn't turn over.
It wasn't empty but since I parked on a hill and the cold weather, it wasn't pumping through.
Just a thought.

That's what mine was doing this morning too. I kept the key turned for a little while it sounded like it might start (I'm not sure how bad or not this is for the car, so I didn't want to do it too long) I tried a couple of times then let it sit. I went out a little later and did it again and after a few more tries, finally got it to go. DH reminded me that it happened once before when we were upstate and it was super cold.

ETA - and I think we were low on gas that time too.
