<VV> Re: sick of my Corvair

All:

    Remember the following:

        Reasons why we own POS (by their standards)

        1)   They're more fun to drive
        2)    Cheaper to own and maintain.
                When your post 1990 vehicle dies it takes a $70 /hour 
technician (I use that title loosely)
                            to put your ride back together.
                            When it dies it really dies hard....
                When your Vair dies, it costs you parts, maybe a tow 
bill and your time to put Humpty Dumpty
                            back together, you take PRIDE in your work 
because you know that the POS's at work
                            don't have the skill to repair a vehicle 
much less which end of the screwdriver to hold...
                            That also holds true for most of the 
"technicians" at the dealership....
        3) Any Vair nut worth his salt carries parts and tools. i.e. A 
portable repair shop, because we've been stuck before
                and vowed not to be caught unprepared again...I don't 
carry a spare engine, but once I get my ride home,
                I usually have the parts on hand  to fix almost anything....

        Don't cry...it's not manly...

Just my 2 cents worth....
