So my alternator went out. It didn't upset me much cause the only other thing that's gone bad in 4 years was the opti.
FYI I went on line to GM Parts Direct and The GM Parts house, they both were over $218. Remf. Checked the local Kragan, $148 for an Autolite remf., no stock, 6 days min delivery. Walked into NAPA, got a Delco remf., lifetime warranty, in stock for $128. They also could order a brand new one for $154. |

Thats why I dont buy from GM direct. I always go to either Advance Auto or something simular. I saved so much money that way.

Rockauto is probably cheaper, but you have to wait for shipping.

Yea, I also thought about checking with Jeffvette but I was headed to the racetrack the next day and didn't want to take the pickup. |
