My first actual breakdown.

Well the alternator started going out in the daily driver today.
Of course it was on the way to a job and out in the middle of nowhere. I went ahead and did the job, and fortunately my Porsche mechanic was right on the way to my next job. I called him and headed over there. The lights on the dash began to go dim about two blocks from the garage, but it made it!
The test showed it was barely charging.
The repair will be $700 and I'll have it back by tomorrow.
I could whine, but the car has 130,000 miles on it, 3,500 of which I've put on it in the past eight weeks.
I'd say that's a pretty good track record so far.
