Never give something away if one can sell it.

How many times has this occured? Was the vehicle "jump started"?

You can buy a subscription to AllData for wiring diagrams.

What's the fluid level and condition? What condition is the truck in? Can you justify the expense of putting a transmission in it?

Cool beans. Post up a link to your YouTube video if you would be so kind, I love math.

If a person is concerned about economy they should be allocating funds for fuel instead of a shiny chicom plastic box. If a person can't afford to fill a vehicle with fuel... they can't afford the vehicle.

Using any type of cruise control while driving in fog or on ice is probably the cause of 100+ vehicle pile-ups that always end up on the news.

https://www.caranddriver.com/research/a32813983/adaptive-cruise-control/ What Is Adaptive Cruise Control? "These sensory technologies allow the car to detect and warn the driver about potential forward collisions.

Economics and finance have taken a backseat in public schools to be replaced by AIDs awareness, golf and ESL. An unexpected $400 bill can send them scurrying to the "payroll advance" place.

No question at all... I always have 3 vehicles at my disposal.
