Good Friday morning folks.

The alternator on my El Camino cost me 35 bucks back in 1993. It has a lifetime warranty. I have swapped it 8 or 10 times over the years. It is a real easy swap, but they should last longer. The latest one died after 4 months. I went to a local rebuild shop and he made me a up one wire unit for $75 that will last from parts he had on hand. I am going to take the last dead one back in to Autozone and get it swapped one more time and put in on the shelf. In 5 or 10 years when the current one dies I will have a ready to go replacement. Assuming I remember I have it.

After swapping the alternator I set up my new Apple router. That sucker was expensive but hopefully it will do better than the last two cheap routers.
