So the past few days I have been noticing a little more growl in my engine, almost sounds as though the fan were hitting the shroud, but a quick look over showed nothing out of the ordinary, well today the growling is gone, replaced by an intermitent screeching, sounds like it is coming from under the truck somewhere. Really nasty sound, like a metal on metal screech. Anyone have any ideas?? Thanks in advance!!

WHAT? Hold the presses!!!

Mr. Trailblazer doesn't know how to maintain his drivetrain?

What happens if he needs to fix something when in the field "running ghosttown and mine exploration expeditions?"

I've always thought that when one's "been in nastier stuff than you could imagine" it would be helpful to know something about maintenance and repair?

I guess it makes sense that he doesn't know, seeing as how he thought one breaks axles by hitting them on stuff...

LOL

Shit, you talk like you know everything, so it must be true, right?

You did buy a Ford. Just with a green oval, not a blue one. Oh, I forgot. And a Buick.
