Re: warped brake rotors - ongoing ?
Hi Dave,
I meant I bought one per axle on many vehicles, but it's easily
over a million millions the wife and I have driven since Kragans life
time warranties moved to vista. You remember I brag about my '89
Thunderbird 300,000 and '78 Bronco 350,000 both bought new and never
been apart. Then there is '57 T-Bird I've owned since '62, and my Real
Jeep I built in '78, in my driveway, and the cars I've owned and sold
'72 Ford PU, '78 Mustang, '84 T-bird. I live in Southern California
where we commute, Like Jeff here drives from Corona to San Diego for two
hundred miles a day. And in that time I drove another million miles
pushing a diesel.
God Bless America, Bill O|||||||O
