The State of the Union speech is soon.  Bet 'ya Bush says to Ford workers
everything is looking up thanks to his high class leadership.

I believe that this can be reasonably construed as  a life & death struggle
for the manufacturing base of the nation.  I wonder when Detroit will ever
get around to making those responsible, those in the boardrooms, pay as they
are making people on the shop floor pay.

Just curious, I have never used overdrive in town, but have been wondering
if it makes any difference in gas mileage to speak of? Thanks.

I ordered a bunch of brake parts for the car.  The parts never came.  I
can't get in touch with a real person.  Won't respond to emails.
Got ripped off.  Time for a credit card dispute.  Hopefully this will

Lack of fuel economy and pick-up was the principle operational deficiency
of pure turbine power.  Might not this be solved by using a gas turbine

normal.

Autoblog didn't say what the gallons per mile rating of this behemoth was.
Lets see: $2.39 & headed _much_ higher x probably 30 or 40 gallon tank =

I recently replaced the distributor in my Ford F-150 400eng. with a
rebuilt from the local parts store.  I have poor eyesight, and could
not read the timing marks real well, so I timed it "by ear".  The
other day a friend came to visit from out of town.  He's a retired

I'm cross-posting this in  alt.autos.gm  with the hope that GM will
improve its quality of manufacturing and avoid bankruptcy.

helpful to GM.

feedback carburetor (part number E5TE-9510-YA) and EEC-IV electronic

When starting cold, the choke pulldown function fails.  The choke

I was looking at getting a newer used Ford Ranger 4.0L or Mazda B4000
extended cab 2 wheel drive truck.  I have read that the gas mileage is
almost the exact same with the 3.0L and the 4.0L so might as well go with
the bigger one - right?
