How about crank position sensors that go out every 6 months on my old 2000 that I had. $136.00 each time. No warranty.

How about u-joints that fail 2000 miles past the drive train warranty... Dodge has that planned obsolesce thing down pat...

Dodge trucks, I mean every single one of them. If it's not the crappy paint, it's the fire starting head light switch, to the crap front ends.

Also, the pos Chrysler 4 speed man transmissions they stuck behind the 6.2 Detroit Diesel in the early 80's Chevy trucks.

Insert laptop just before the rear tire of your CTD and then place in drive and smile as you crawl over it. I did this w/a Sony Audio Receiver and wow that was some instant gratification!

I bought a BestBuy $299 laptop 3 years ago, and it's been my star performer as far as electronics go. I did hit my old cellphone with a .308 round... talk about gratification! I hated that handfull of trash! Electronics so bad I would've sworn it was English...

Mind if I back my 27' Wilderness travel trailer over that big fire and then maybe shoot it a couple of times too? Time to put it out of it's (and my), misery.

Ok, I'll throw my self in, I didn't set the charger right. I had it set for 'most' low maintnance batteries....when the charger has a high cappacity setting. But i will throw my alternator on...it took the crap.
