We got about 8" or so here, I had to head into work last night so that meant clearing the driveway during the day. Kubota made easy work of it, also pulled out about 2 or 3 neighbors whose tires were just spinning in their driveway. Hope all you guys survived the storm and stayed safe, I heard Tennessee and Mississippi got whooped pretty bad with alot of people losing power.
Decided to take the Ferd fteenthousand into work; between the snow rated tires and the heavy chassis, it drove nice even on the shittiest of roads. On the way home the alternator decided to die on me luckily it has two batteries so I made it home around 11 volts LOL. Ordered a new Bosch alternator and I'll rebuild my OEM 6G as a spare. I think the interstate batteries that went stone dead on me cooked the alternator when I started it a few months back. Alternator was original from what I can tell so I have no complaints. I contemplated ordering a higher output Mechman alternator but then I'd have to start upgrading the wiring and all that nonsense and I did not want to go down that rabbit hole, I have no plans to need any large amperage draws on the truck anyhow.
