Just wondering how many people are still reading the Automotive echo?
I would like to see this become a good place to talk about cars, repairs EK>MH>>tricks, motorcycles, etc again.
I will be mostly lurking as Automobiels have left this old guy in the EK>TW> dust.
Same here.. I used to swing the meanest wrench in town. Now i look under the EK>hood and don't have a clue.
While not the Meansest wrench in town in my younger uears i was pretty
good. Did everything except automatic transmision work.
In fact I would select my next Used car, the last New car I bought was a
1961 Ford Falcon, from the Consumer Reports WORST used car list.
Nowdays I cannot even change my own oil because of an inner ear problem
but with the Computerized Nightmare engine control systems I don't think
I woudl enjoy working on cars nearly as much.
Got to drive a late model Ford Focus today. Great little car with lots of pe EK>and handles well. Ford is for sure cranking out a good product.
I still follow the market and an impressed with how Ford is doing.
Far better then what I call GM Junk or Chrysler Crap.
Has anyone seen Ford's new service commercials with Dwayne Johnson (WWE The EK>Rock) that guy has the gift of gab. Sure beats getting his body destroyed in EK>the ring.
I caught the "Got Milk" ad. Very good one
