Reminds me of a story told by my brother in law. He and a friend went on a fishing trip up north with lots of gear. Two trucks - one to pull the boat and another to pull the camper trailer. On the way back, the alternator died in the Dodge truck. They needed to drive all night to get home for work. They had a little generator and a battery charger as they had an electric trolling motor on the boat and they needed to charge the battery for it. They put the generator in the boat and ran the extension cord up the trailer tongue and into the underhood area - plugged the battery charger into the cord and connected the clips to the battery. Came home a couple of hundred miles like that in the dark. Brian said he turned the headlights off whenever he could to reduce the draw on the battery and would turn them on again if he saw another vehicle coming. A pretty barren road however so not much traffic.
