A couple of months ago, my kid was driving the '98 Jeep and the alternator quit on a Saturday afternoon. It left him set on the side of the road. Triple AAA towed him to a Firestone shop because it was the only one open. I would have rescued him, but he was three hours away from me.

The irony of this was that I had put on a new battery and alternator about a month before this and the new alternator had failed, so nothing that I could have done to foresee this coming. Stay away from Firestone.

To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
