    1/3 of green tacomas had exploding alternators, 1/2 of red tacomas had exploding alternators. I like my odds with green. 2/3 green tacomas went through the mud bowl. 0/2 red tacomas went through the mud bowl. 1 green tacoma ate it's alternator for sustance to continue to rape and pillage 3 ft deep holy shit mud. 1 red tacoma got tired and wimped out after splashing through little girly man skid marks. 1 red tacoma was trailered back to camp and then needed 2 parts replaced. 1 green tacoma drove 60 miles back to fayetteville under it's own power (and the borrowed power of some other vehicles).

    Of the green and red representation on the night run one can conclude that the green tacoma conquered the trail with no lift, street tires, and an inexperienced driver. Clearly making the green tacoma superior. Without dimishing the accomplishments of the red tacoma, it should be noted that the red tacoma required no spotting, while the green tacoma had both red and green spotting.

    And finally the transportation to aquire the new red tacoma alternator was provided by none other than a green tacoma.

    Thank you.

    Apparently they found mud in the alternator and they won't fix it under warranty. That's BS cause we pressure washed the shit out of it :p

    Found a guy that does custom high output upgrades. Gonna see how that works. Only problem is truck might be down for upwards of 2 weeks.

    Please post the phone number for your dealership.

    I need to order some factory parts and, as long as your parts department doesn't mind shipping, will throw the business your way as a result of your support this past weekend.

    Many thanks!!
