I really don't know how you do it i absolutely dread working on vehicles anymore
I used to like working on stuff.
Today i have to take apart most of the frontend of my brother's 2016 Toyota highlander
Just to put a new alternator in.
He claims it's what's wrong with it
It draws the battery dead in no time so he put a new battery in
Same thing.
Parasitic loss somewhere
I've been working 12 hour day's
So he checked everything and ran a code reader no codes.

I'd put a voltmeter on the battery terminals with it running.
If it's 13v or higher, I'd tell him to replace the alternator himself as it's currently working.

Cars aren't so bad. Some stuff is too overcomplicated but it's just nuts and bolts.

i have a new saying
if noone else gives a *f-word why should i

because to any insurance company or any dr you are just a money account to them
once they bleed you for all they can they pass you off to another or pound pills into you until the liver or kidney goes out
It’s sad really. That’s what happened to my mom from her first hip surgery. This go around was much worse for with issues due to the first replacement failing. The doctors this time though have been very careful with meds and trying to manage things much differently. She is doing better each day but surgery was last July and she’s still recovering

Had to go to my old business today because the air compressor threw a belt.
New owners had no idea how to pull the guard, aftercooler and main airline.
Did that kind of crap for 49 years and thought i got out of it.
At least i get free drycleaning out the deal.
Only had to take 1 break during the work but now back at home my blood pressure is only 100/65
Vertical tank with7 1/2 hp 4 cyl air compressor is 7 feet tall so standing on a ladder and pulling wrenches is a strain on us old peoples.

We just learned about blood pressures last night in EMR class. That’s not a terrible number really, unless you continue to get light headed.
