What A Night
Well on my way to DQ with a few friends, get there, order, eat, then was told my lights were still on, I go outside and they are really dim, So I new I was gunna need a jump, so my friends roll started me fired right up, then after bout 15 seconds died, and it wouldn't roll start again, so my friend jumps me, I get about 1/8 mile down the road and my truck starts to sputter and dies, pitch black, no lights, so I finally coast to a road I pull in there, my friends pulled up behind me, first thing I thought was bad alternator, cuz the batteries only 3 days old, they jump me again, then She dies about 1/8 mile down the road but im going down hill, So im coasting with no light, no power steering, nothing, get to another road, friends jump me but we let it charge for a while this time, make it all the way into town bout 2 miles, and stop at a stop sign and the cars in front of me wont move, so i rev my truck up and they still wont move, so my truck dies again, friends jump, letting it charge, then the cops show up, asking me what Im doing, I guess the jumper cables going from my friends car to my truck wasn't very obvious, I told him my alternator was shot, he so ok that's fine, I un hooked the cables and was to make it all the way home bout 1/4 mile away, well that's my story of last night lol....so this morning took the alternator out, took it to AutoZone for a test, and FAIL....thank god thats what it was
