^ Right... when they had a problem they let you know it, usually with an oil trail; you did not have to guess.

And you could figure out what was wrong with your eyes, ears and nose. A couple of screw drivers, a set of six wrenches, a vice grip, a socket set and ratchet and a good set of feeler gauges took care of 90% of the problems. Add in a hammer and a wire stripper and you had 95% coverage.

You are correct Levi. There has also been a little encounter with some black ice....let's just say that a fender that already had a minor crease which was driving Rick nuts, is going to be replaced.
