Communication style. I've gotten that a lot. I'm just prematurely a stubborn old bastard. Plus, I've done a lot with cars in my few years so I've got the mechanical bits figured out pretty well and generally most people don't have that experience until they're older.

It wasn't thread crapping - it was an honest answer!

 

[Jeff7]

Rebuilt 1997 Hyundai Elantra GLS. I think I bought it sometime in 2000, and it's still working reasonably well, with close to 90,000 miles on it, 55,000 of which are mine.
