    If you accelerate at a normal rate, it will skip. If you accelerate higher, it might not skip.

    But Sitake isn't. Chesney isn't Cignetti isnt Dooley isn't Steele isn't Butch Davis isn't Coke isn't Fullmer isn't And I am not to worried about a few of those ever coaching again.

    That would be false as Jimmy Sexton is not Kalani Sitake's agent.

    In the half tons they are. GM and Ford developed their own 10 speeds in the 3/4T and up although they started with the half ton designs and they went in different directions on the heavy duty transmissions.

    You hardly feel the shifts in a 10 speed. BTW, when you drove that bronco, it skips gears 2 and 4 unless you were in sport or trailer mode. F-150s do the same.

    Things i hate

    I hate painting too which is why I usually hire people to do it now. My friend and I just built a balcony at my lake Tahoe house. It was harder to paint that walls in a house because of all the nooks and crannies. At least I did some of it on the ground before it went up and painted it all...

    I love 10 speed transmissions. Had it on my 2018 F-150 and have it on my 2024 GMC 2500. Both are the smoothest shifting transmissions I have ever owned and perfect for towing, although they never go above 8th gear while towing. Coupled with adaptive cruise control, you never have to deal with...

    hub dust cap

    Secret to Bearing Buddies it to only pump grease into them if the piston has bottomed out and only add grease to get the piston to slightly move. You can tell if the piston had bottomed out if you can rock it with your fingers. Once the hub is full of grease, you should not need to be adding...

    LOL...want a mulligan on that? Absolutely not true if you specify it as number of accidents per million miles driven.

    1989 OMC Cobra exhaust seal

    You must not be in salt water then. Batwing manifolds were hard to cast properly so they easily got thin spots. You might have gotten lucky and gotten a set that didn't have that thin spot. To me the danger of hydro locking an engine would be enough for me to be proactive and get rid of them ASAP.

    When I worked at GM. I was working at the GM proving grounds. I had to take a week long drivers course before I was allowed to drive on the facility. One of the modified cars we were taught on had a switch where the instructor could turn on and off ABS. It was night and day the difference in...

    And even with those incidents, still safer than a human not using the system. I am guessing you wouldn't get into a Waymo taxi that doesn't have a driver in it! With Tesla FSD engaged, one crash every 6.69 million miles driven. Without it engaged, one crash every 963,000 miles driven. I have...
