Alabama thread!

LOL, no need. My great aunt cooks lunch for me on Thursdays. The battery light came on when I was about a mile from her house. I let her car charge my batter with jumper cables while we ate and drive home (7 miles) with out a problem. Went straight to the shop and hopped in dads truck. I'm thinking about ordering this alternator from BNR https://www.ebay.com/itm/352570729112 . There is a thread on here somewhere about them, 1 year free replacement and I saw where one guy on here got his caked up with mud and it quit. They replaced it no questions asked.

 

So have you all noticed Disney has blacked out college football from spectrum users? So basically if you have spectrum, no Alabama, Auburn or any other sec football game will be shown. Disney wants more money from spectrum and spectrum won't pay

 

Goodnight everyone, sleep well

 

Later Jeff.

 

Good morning everyone
