Bessie is dead..

After our wheelin trip yesterday, she died. We look at the battery and ran some tests, ends up it's the alternator. So we have to get that replaced. luckily the one we have in it now is a new one so it should still be under warranty. But as of now, I'm out of commission.

I would have drove out if it didn't die. It wasn't that thick just deep. I had been running the radio and the batt wasn't charged enough so when the alt died the jeep did to. Charged my bat up on my buddies bronco and drove the jeep home/ after letting the water drain out of cab lol. Alt died as soon as i hit the whole.
