No sweat. It's not about giving credit. I was glad to see that you had gone to my web site.

The "teaching point" was that many folks haven't learned to check out all the various Power Wagon web sites. Many times the answer to their question is just a click or two away. Several of the Power Wagon forums have "Search" capabilities (Thank you Joe, Gordon, Robi...)

Everyone on these Forums is willing to help, and many take the time to answer these same repeated questions. When someone asks a question that has been answered many times, we can't help thinking that we should save our help for "those who help themselves."

Also, there are a few folks who should send us money for our dental bills to cover the damage we incur by biting our teeth and answering some questions instead of simply saying, "The answer is on page 9 of your service manual." Most of the answers I have on my web site are right out of the manuals.

If I want to sell a truck with some real problems that I don't want the buyer to discover, I will always do better selling it to someone who does not know much about it. I would want to sell it to someone who does not have a manual to check it out.

Stacy David, former host of "Trucks" did not seem to be very smart when he got all excited about his 1/2 ton WC Dodge that actually had an IHC cab.
