I understand: basically, there was an additional A/C unit installed, that will bring the on board electrical system to its limit, sure. I think that installing an additional battery would probably solve the problem: I’ve seen that being done with cars that had absurdly powerful sound systems  

 

Selling is always an option: Right now I have a car with a defective A/C compressor (in Switzerland), but I don’t really need A/C, so I said to my mechanic that I won’t be fixing it, at least not before it’s time to sell the car. He said to me: No need to fix it then, just sell it during the winter ;)

Installing another AC unit should not be an issue.  Install the proper power unit and you are good to go!

Purchased six new tires at Les Schwab in Oregon. i asked them to check the cab battery. The mechanic informed me that the battery is in good condition. It is more than 4 years old. Hopefully, they will last another two years. Maybe three if I am lucky.
