Probably best I keep my opinions to myself. But yes, have heard excuses here about bird flu. And maybe it’s true, but hard to believe when the shelves are full, yet only the prices change..

I heard egg production is down 18% and prices went up 138% WTH

Really strange since the amount of backyard chickens coming into play is unprecedented. I have never seen so many people with backyard chickens, people that i would have never imaged owning chickens, have them. Somethings not adding up. Demand for store eggs is way down, which should lower the price.

Who brings a 1988 pickup to the dealer?


More like who knew there was still an 88 in WI that hadn't completely rusted away to nothing.


Rich people.

I don't think he was rich.
At least it didn't appear to be a rich person's truck.

To a certain extent I can agree with you but I also sometimes question the "don't take it to the dealer" mentality. Sure, they can have some shady hack aśs guys, as I well know, but we also have resources to fall back on (the asšholes who built it) when necessary.
And I'm not talking myself up, but I'd wager I know the inside and out of the Gernerals piles of shìt better than Jethro the adjustable wrench down the road because that's 95% of what I work on and go to factory training on.
Same goes for all manufacturers.

You could get lucky and find a shop with a mf'er like @Steve who works there and can dig into anything and make it right, but guys like him who excel at their craft and will do it the right way are few and far between. Unfortunately..

While I agree to a point, a speed density throttle body would require an old timer at this point. You may know it well, but are the tools still available to flash an ecm? Even in my industry, there is a limit even for what we can get parts for. I figure they probably cover all OBD2, but fall short on the OBD1 stuff. I may be wrong.
