This Club Rocs
Two weeks ago the alternator in my roc finally kicked after 15 years of
service. Fortunately it happened right in my driveway, so I pushed the car
into the garage. Being that I didn't want to have the car towed (hasn't
been towed in 15 years, and I'm not going to start now) I picked up an
alternator and was going to attempt to put it in myself (not being much of a
mechanic, I was a little intimidated). As it turns out Brian McGarvey was
going to be in town this weekend, so we made plans to to a little tech day
at my place and do the alternator. Brian really jumped in a did me a solid
(read: did all the work), for which I'm grateful. I bought lunch and beer
(my two favorite food groups). The car's charging fine and once again
running great.
I'm about to take him out today and take a nice long (high-speed) drive.
This brings me to my point: As far as I can remember we've never done a
NYC-tri state metro area cruise. Anybody up for it?
