So you’re saying that our government will soon be regulating credit unions out of existence? That seems to be today’s big business model.

If the Aussies required that modified vehicles carried a book like other countries do, the driver could quickly prove that the mods are legal.

China’s Navy is on a roll.

This may be a silly question, but what is the likelihood that the warranty provider denies the claim saying that the motor had been run dry? Might even claim that you were the one who did it, not the previous owner.

It’s kind of a catch 22; women don’t want to go into the entry level jobs because there’s no way (historically) to advance, so you end up with fewer people who are experienced in the industry to move into upper management.

Minivans don’t have a center console (my wife’s Voyager and Windstar didn’t anyway) and SUVs typically do?
