I'm not a fan at all of the serpentine belt system. It was the first thing I noticed when I opened the hood of my truck when I was considering buying it and my heart sank! If one of these things breaks, you're absolutely dead!
At least with the old, multi-belt systems there was a chance you could perform an emergency repair with one of those "belt kits" if you didn't have the better alternative, which was some good old US Army commo wire. And, if you were lucky, it might not have even been a critical belt that broke.
Ah, progress - gotta love it!
