If you're going to play fast and loose with the facts, how can we be

You need to learn to read. Perhaps you're just too ****ing stupid to comprehend.

You've earned a place with slammer and noname.

No need to get ****ty, JohnnyMop. *I was just trying to help.

You tend to get your knickers all tied up in a knot every Sunday.

You hanging around on roofs again Swill?
Appears like you've suffered another injury to that soft noggin.

You seem to have larger than life issues with your dwarfisn, Why is that,
Care to comment?

Me myself, I'm jealous of people like you, I constantly have to get on my knees to check the oil window on my Ducati. What a pita!

Be glad you don't have an older Guzzi. Laying on the floor undoing about 18 bolts to change the oil
filter. What a pita!

Same process on a2000 guzzi Jackal only without the benefit of a center stand.

With a center stand is a bitch. Without must be a double bitch.

As a nod to "superior" Japanese engineering and design, you have to
unbolt the skid plate on the front of my truck to change the oil filter.

I think only the "offroad" 4WD models have the skidplate. If I lived in
the Souf', I would have skipped the 4WD altogether. But the two times I
drove in the snow this past winter, it was nice to have the traction and
control.

Just remember in a 4WD, when you lose it, you lose all 4 wheels and
your car becomes a hockey puck.

If you're not going to do any off-roading, why not take off the skid plate?

I got "free" (ha!) oil and filter changes for life or something like
that when I bought the truck.

Free oil and filters for *life*? (yes, I noticed the "something like
that") :-)

I traded both my truck and the Altima that I bought last year in over
the weekend. Really didn't plan on it but you know how it goes.
Visit a dealership, they take your keys to check out your trade (I was
driving the truck) and they won't give them back or let you out until
they've tried every trick in the book to sell you a new car.

They won Saturday. But, I got free maintenance including oil and filter
changes for 3 years, not for life.

WOW...I get mine changed twice a year at about $65.00 per. Of course every second visit (yearly) there are extras like replacing the the cabin filter, tightening bolts in the 4WD trainer, etc.
