I know a guy who basically did this to a Mercedes G 550. I can’t remember if he limped it to the dealer, or ended up with a tow. In any case, he flew home, they replaced the alternator and some other stuff, he returned and paid a couple weeks later and drove home.

The G Wagon might a more serious off-road vehicle than that jeep.

In any case, alternators don’t like being clogged with mud.

Quite true. The more I read of this story, the more I think they need to total this truck. It’s flood damaged. I believe more than just mud got into the electrical system and has fried much if not all of the electrical components that drive this Gladiator. It’s totaled.
