Towing

The picture says it all.  The truck is in the shop.  AS you can see it had to be towed.  It was as my Dad would have said,  "Dead as a door nail."  I thought that the alternator had failed again so I removed it and had it tested at Autozone and it failed so their lifetime guaranty is valid.  However, that didn't help.  After charging the batteries all night there still was nothing when I turned the key.  So the tow.

Bad news >>>  The windshield leaked allowing water to drip unto some electrical box on the firewall.  Toasted it.  Toasted the brand new batteries. 

Bottom Line ::   Major dollars,  waiting a week for parts .

Only good thing:  The truck was parked in front of the house and not in the middle of nowhere, Nevada.
