[MetroMPG]

Or is it Machine vs. Nature?


The Metro failed in spectacular fashion on its first trip of the year this weekend: at the mid-way point, the exhaust pipe busted AND the alternate alternator stopped working. (Looks like an encore of the intermittent charging problem from last year).


I limped into my driveway with 7 volts showing on the battery, and bits of rags stuffed in my ears to keep from going deaf. (Either from swearing at the car or the roaring exhaust - not sure which.)


Fun!
