I don't think GM is buying off anyone. Ford didn't take the money because they didn't need it, they just didn't want the govt telling them how to spend it. They wanted the money, they just didn't want the stipulations. I want the perfect vehicle as much as the next guy, but there will never be such a thing. GM vehicles have been too good to me for me to buy anything else. Uncle's 88 half ton 4x4 went for 260K until someone rear ended the fertilizer buggy he was pulling. Bent the frame rails up like a banana so insurance company totalled it. I sold my 89 half ton 4x4 to a good friend of mine with 150K on it. He drove it to about 215K then slid off the icy road one morning and hit a utility pole and shifted the frame rails. Both trucks had factory engine and trans. Guy at work drives a 92 Lumina with 200+K on it, all original. My 96 olds is at 150K and going strong. (Knock on wood). Friend of the family is putting a tranny in his Tauraus wagon over his xmas break from Ford. He just finished getting his son's F150 up and running because it needed a new head. Changing a light bulb every now and then is ok with me. I agree with the others on the fact that imports are overrated. Just because something isn't any worse, doesn't make it better. Parts are outrageous, and it is going to need the routine stuff. Brakes, alternators, etc, and that's if you can get them. Most parts stores in my area don't stock alot of that stuff. I suppose if you're closer to a big city, that is not as much as a problem.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
