  6. Hoping the Big3 and UAW can work together to avoid a strike [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO INSULTS]

    WIth a Thursday midnight 'deadline' looming I hope the Big3 and UAW together can manage (pardon the double entendre) to avoid a strike. Without commenting on the merits of respective 'positions', IMO there's little doubt that any strike, even 'selective' and / or short-lived, would almost...

  11. My fantasy for a more informative 'Payload Sticker'

    The form and content of the "Tire and Loading Information" sticker (AKA 'payload sticker') found on all North American vehicles is dictated by federal rule (DOT or NHTSA, I don't recall which). IMO it's a piss-poor source of incredibly limited information. IMO the rule should be changed to...

  17. Ford and a Dealer Exceed Expectations (a good-news post)

    No question that 2022 was (another) tough year and Ford failed to meet a lot of folks' expectations.
