Pops sold Ford vehicles for 57 years at the same dealership. Started there in 1950. Salesman of the month every month since the award was introduced there except one. We talked cars, trucks. He told me the only sales he ever lost were to Jeep. This was during the run of the original Bronco. Did...

The so called jack rabbit start is no longer an issue. The problem was carburetors with accelerator pumps and overly rich metering. EFI these days is much more economical with acceleration.

It has been my experience that of the problems described, 4WP is not the only vendor with employee's incompetence. This started decades ago with the "every one gets a trophy" just for showing up and managers chosen from the same stock. The idiot genes are passed on at a far higher rate than the...

Over the years I have commented to the SO about other folks' idea of style. Hopefully, she has been paying attention. If you like it, good on ya. If not, do not prolong the agony. Way too many decisions made based on feelings instead of logic.
