What year is that? Mine is a 1994, 230,000 miles.
‘05 with 518k
That's over 300,000 miles. I had a Ford box truck that had 323,000 when it backfired, caught on fire and burned. It was that 300 6 cyl.
I maintain that van so trust me when I tell you someone is making a profit off of me.

The big benefit is you don't need to pay someone a profit every month you do it when you feel like it or you do it when you need to.
Last Sunday my truck would not start once we got to the job. Crawled underneath and did the tappy tap tap on the starter and the Shazam....... I'm a freaking mechanic!
When I got home, I hosed the lower vent hole out with some brake clean and electrical cleaner and it's worked fine ever since.
Obviously the hammer fixed does not last forever.
I stopped at O'Reilly's yesterday and had them order a reduction gear starter for my S10. Rebuilt of course, as new ones are either non-existent or 400 bucks.
The starter was at the store as promised so I picked it up and went outside and opened the box.
It's a rebuilt reduction gear starter just as promised.

On the way back home I decided to stop at Napa. Earlier in the week they said they had one in stock.
I like O'Reilly's and I like the personnel there. There are two stores in the area so if one place doesn't have what I need they will call the other shop to see if they have it on the shelf.
So anyway we stopped at Napa tonight because I just wanted to look at their starter.
Boy, speaking of night and Day.
I went back over and got my money back at O'Reilly's and bought the Napa starter.
I am going to send photos to O'Reilly's headquarters to let them know that these two starters are the same price. The oreilleys starter was assembled by a monkey in a plumbing scrapyard.
The Napa one even came out with a motor performance printout. Very impressive.

Fox News should be ashamed of themselves for their right bias and deceptive reporting.

Everyone knows that CNN news is a scam. They have been caught in numerous lies. It is best to not believe any news source.
I remember a headline that CNN had about the breaking up of a huge "human trafficking ring" in Florida. when the locals there said it was just a whorehouse with local, paid, volunteer prostitutes, CNN would not report the truth.

Volunteer prostitutes? Tell me where?
You know that I mean they were not forced into the trade. Prostitution should be legal and would be if not for churches.
Oh, it’s legal alright. The thing is you can’t pay for it directly. You pay for it through dinners, movies, trips… anything but the act itself.
Sean hannity is 100% for the vaccine. He's not for forcing it on people but he got the vaccine and recommends it.
There's a lot of difference between Fox News and the opinion makers like hannity.
One of the funniest conservatives on talk radio is Chris plante. He's on the conservative Westward one network. He and his wife have gotten the vaccine and he is pro vaccine. Lawyers Larson and Oregon conservative radio host is pro vaccine. All of them mentioned it on a regular if not daily basis.
Here's why you can't trust Fox News. They report fake news like this.
https://www.foxbusiness.com/business-leaders/amazons-jeff-bezos-donated-richest-gift-of-2020...oops, my bad. It's the same true story that MSNBC CNN and everybody else reported.

I now understand this is what Trumps best at,(lying)that no one can beat him at.
you’re all sneaky though, last minute you may pull a contender out, maybe Liz? The only credible one, maybe Kinzinger, very likeable.

Biden said that he was smart enough to be president, can't get a much bigger lie than that.
I wouldn't place much faithin any of the top new stations, they are all scams as far as I'm concerned.

Probably just a likeable person suffices as with all bosses I assume. Just too much at stake at this point, like a lockdown. Who’s gonna like an authority figure. My wife says I’m not the boss of her. I hear trade in value is up 30%. We can’t even agree on a light fixture.
