At first I thought it was the regulator, but now that the new battery is in it puts out 14.1V when driving even with lots of stuff on, like all the lights and radio and climate control etc....it even stays above 13V with the rear defroster on. So it must be producing plenty of power....very odd. My alternator is not the original, its a rebuild from sometime before I got the car (pre-207k) and it has the old style regulator on it. When it goes I may just replace the whole alternator since the old style regulator costs more....
