How long did he last as an 'oil change' technician for Mr. Goodwrench?


Please...those guys have had some training. Scotty would have to work
his way through a Job Corps 12-year pre-training course just to learn
the skills needed to show up on time and empty the trashcans.

Since you have some back to rec.boats the signal to noise ratio has
changed. There is more noise and less signal. Why don't you stop
stirring the pot, and start enjoying rec.boats as a boating forum?

I guess you have decided it is yours and Yukon's purpose in life is to
insult as many people as possible.

And anybody who has raced knows if you are going off the road, hit the
gas and get that back end between you and the guardrail. I did this
without even thinking about it a few years back when I hit the ice in my
Wrangler... I slid long enough to know I wasn't catching it, so as I
came around I stayed in the throttle to turn the vehicle and we hit rear
end first, nobody was injured. This doesn't work well in four wheel
either so back then I used to stay in 2 wheel until I needed it to pull
out of something. Now with crazy computer controlled traction on my new
Jeep, I let it decide how to act, you just can't drive it fast though,
not what it's made for. If you try to take a fast corner, the computer
brakes wheels and tries to get you back unless you switch it off



The top performing rally cars are FWD and 4WD. Whatever problems you are
having with your vehicles is attributable to your driving skills or lack
of same.

Hey, Dummy, the "engineers" did it to save money. Period.

Yeah, I kinda figured *that* was the lack of thought underpinning your
absurd statement, "Just doesn't make sense to have the steering and
drive on the same axle." Fortunately, Alec Issigonis wouldn't have paid
any attention to you back then, and no automotive engineer would pay
any
attention to you today. But, hey, go ahead...go through life wallowing
in your ignorance.

STFU, you don't know what google is talking about.. I have raced front
wheel drive vehicles.. Come back to me when you actually know what you
are talking about...snerk..



I do know what I am talking about; you do not. Your ignorant statement
is all the proof that is needed.

Please explain why it "Just doesn't make sense to have the steering and
drive on the same axle." Use your own words. Go ahead. Oh, it's
axles, by the way, usually.

For someone who said you were going to let the "Righties" stir up all
the **** in rec.boats, you seem to be doing your best to stay ahead of
them in the insult count.

Is anyone surprised?

I'll go, but then I want your rebuttal in your own words. First when the
driven wheels are on the same axles as the steering, it's more
complicated mechanically. Secondly, you have steering components and
driven components that are under a lot of stress, such as CV joints
which fail very often. Third, if you lose traction like in snow, you can
steer all you want and you go in a straight line.

Could be our Google queen is playing some kind of semantics game.

Remember, all I said was front wheel drive sucks, he made a fight over
it...

What you said:

"Just doesn't make sense to have the steering and
drive on the same axle."

That's not the same as FWD sucks. Or maybe it is in your dysfunctional
brain.

Oh...and FWD doesn't suck.

Oh yeah, I forgot.. Only you can have an opinon... Later asshat! Isn't
that what that moderator at the gun site called you, an "asshat"?
plonk



Apparently your brain is in such bad shape you can't remember what you
posted a few minutes ago.

Harry, why didn't you reply to MY reply about front wheel drive?

Pffftttt... He is busy trying to Google something that suggests FWD
is good for more than golf carts.

I'm not the one who has problems with front wheel drive, hairball...
*you* are. Perhaps it is because I don't DUI.

Probably longer than your buddy Harry lasted on that gun message board.

That's "1 Harry" for you, fella.
