Besides there are people who can't check their own oil, drove a Honda Civic thier whole life going out and buying duallies and 5vers with zero knowledge or prior experience on how to operate, outfit or maintain anything larger than a......civic. Brings out a lot of tire threads!

We need new information, opinions and experiences from new members as well as those old keyboard warriors.
