I suppoe I 'stirred the pot" by askling the ? I did earlier. I still did not get the answers I expected as to why the under-30 voters back Kerry. This discussion has turned more about the candidates military records than the other issues. In my opinion....they BOTH should leave the military iss...

But I don't know what tranny to put in it, or if it should be auto or manual. I'm also thinking about just taking the whole a/c system out, sinc...

But you can make it right? We saw pics..... How hard was it for you? Yep...I can make it...though the middle line needs a spotter since there is potential to roll..I can drive right up the left line without even a spot now.
