    Well my alternator has given out it seems, so I'm off to advance auto parts to buy another one. $31.88 for a replacement that has a lifetime warranty, sounds pretty good to me. But I was just wondering should I go with a stock alternator or get a better one? I mean I never plan on having a plasma screen or ps2 in my car.......but what do you guys think?

    I would go with the better one, its not that the stock one cant do it it just that they never had some off the stuff we do now compared to the 60's and 70's.
