  1. Just who has been allowed to vote has been amended numerous times in the history of our country. Currently it is just US Citizens.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voting_rig ... ted_States
  2. You might try doing a POR-15 thing... http://www.por15.com/prodinfo.asp?grp=TS&dept=12 http://www.canada-por15.com/por-15-tank-sealer.htm I used a quart to do my 15.6 gallon tank for my bus. Might need 2 do do both saddle tanks. Good prep is the key to success. If you do it, just buy the quart of "US Tank Sealer", 1 gallon of "Marine Clean) and 1 gallon of "Metal Ready". That "Marine Clean" is the best de-greaser I have ever found and the "Metal Ready" is a nice phosphoric acid for etching metal prior to painting. I use them both all of the time. Cheaper. Might be able to get it at some FLAPS in BC someplace with no shipping. Here are a couple of my buddies using it... http://www.ratwell.com/technical/FuelTa ... ation.html http://www.glenn-ring.com/tech/gas_tank_resto.htm
  3. That is a lot of people. Like really a lot.
  4. I disagree. I think that only citizens should be allowed to vote and our laws have always supported that concept. If you want to vote here, become a naturalized citizen. The shame is that half of the people who COULD vote here, do not take the time to do so.
  5. I don't know which video is worse the Fox "News" (and I use the term loosley) or the Rap Video. Both crap in my opinion. Obama was not my first choice for president, but he is president and I am willing to give him a chance to turn around this country. He has not done anything I disapprove of yet, but it is still early in the game.
  6. As far as I am aware, no non-commerical trucks are imported here. I am sure you have heard of the "Chicken War" where imported trucks are taxed 25%..... http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:15b ... cd=2&gl=us
  7. Actually Fiat owns Iveco trucks. Plenty of them in the US. #8 Fiat has the technology to build small cars that hopefully will allow #12 Chrysler to survive.
  8. Your volt ohm meter will pay off big time as you figure this out. Find out where you no longer get 12 volts on the way to the headlights.
  9. I use these to haul canoes, kayaks and ladders all of the time. I bought mine brand new on craigslist for $300 which was a great deal. http://www.rackoutfitters.com/car-racks ... 59p865.htm
  10. Well you need to order up one of these.... http://www.maxjaxusa.com/
  11. When you say "overheating" are you relying on the temp gauge in the dash to make that determination?
  12. Gasohol and winter will also take a toll on your mileage.
  13. Not to detour this thread too much, but did you find a place that actually makes a good quality pre-made seat upolstry kit? Or are you making yoru own or taking it to a local shop? I would also like to rebuild my seat to add some addtional lumbar support and seat heaters also.
  14. Superwade, Sorry, I thought from reading your post that you were implying that NW and MN were part of the Big 12. I thought I would have to come over there and lay a beating on you. :waving:
  15. TIME OUT!! OK Wade it is time for College Football 101. I want you to write me a book report on 1) the Big 10 Conference and also 2) the Big 12 Conference. Please include a list of memebership in each conference please. On my desk by the end of the day.
  16. I think I would be more concerned with the narrow track of the Comanche and the barely adequate brakes they came with from the factory.
  17. Ship, pipelines, and moving vehicles are differnt things. You would be better served to spray this on in the fall.... http://www.mowpart.com/fluid-film-c-328.html Similar to "waxoil" in protection if you have ever seen it.
  18. You may want to buy a thermostat from the Jeep dealer.
  19. Alabama has nothing to be ashamed of. They just got "out hustled" by Utah. The Tide are a young and very well coached team and will certainly be contenders next year. It is a pleasure just to get invited to the the dance.
  20. Invest in some good ignition wires if yours are el-bunko. My '90 4.0L is all done at about 2500 RPMs powerwise. I think I had it up to 3000 a couple of times entering the highway in front of a semi, but it likes the number 2500. It turns about 2000 at 65 MPH.
  21. Keep what you have. These things have lots of issues but "getting more air via a cone filter" is not one of them.
  22. Would it be possible that the brake booser unit is leaking vacuum? You might be able to seal off the vacuum line that gives it the vacuum supply and see if it runs better.
  23. Have you been over here and read wildman's post? viewtopic.php?f=2&t=13447&hilit=tail+AND+light+ANd+fuse
  24. You may want to inspect the rear wiring harness that is located behind the driver under the truck bed. They tend to be problematic and will short out the rear tail lights circuit which includes the front running lights and the dash lights.
  25. I am thinking about sticking a set of these in there while I am in there anyway.... http://www.sportsimportsltd.com/carbon- ... r-kit.html Anone here tried that?
