If your rear tires are wearing evenly, just keep an eye on it every 6

it should be good for another 15-20 years or so.

In the 70s the NADA book continually showed you could buy a 3-5 year
old 220 or 240D for under $2000. I kept thelling the insurance

Sounds like the old big screwdriver is a way to go. I'll be
interested to hear how you do it. I looked on Dave M's website, but
I didn't find any info or pictures about pullers or technique. Lots
of stuff about sportline
You can carry in DC now too.

Bah Humbug. DC is overrun with vermin of every sort. If
yea, I have flown them many times, one of their main maintenance bases

Ah the joys of flying... Has anyone ever flown American Airlines?
All I know is that they are an alliance partner of our national
