Well, um, I'll tell you what. 62 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: I don't think you know, I was thinking about that 63 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: when we finalized this this week. I don't think anybody 64 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: knew what the heck was going on in the sense 65 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: that people are looking at us going we got a 66 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: radio show in the middle of the TSD big event. 67 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: They just and because some people came and said, are 68 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: you really the card Doctor? No, I must look alike, 69 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: they mistakenly mistook the rest of it for the big event. 70 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: We were the big events. Well, I you know that 71 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 1: goes without saying, especially when Tony walks in. Boy, there's 72 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 1: a big event. So speaking of which, um, how are 73 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: you Tom? You know you're the only board operator? Can 74 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: I call you a board operator? That won't hurt your feelings? 75 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: Right in there? You're the only You're the only board 76 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: operator I know of that has a following that. When 77 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: we talked about you being ill list week, there was 78 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: conversation on Facebook and other forums about what happened the 79 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: big Tony at the Card Doctor, And this week I 80 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: mentioned that you know you're back, and you know, they 81 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: just they love it when you do that Barry White impersonation. Actually, 82 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: I'm starting to think Barry White was emulating you. Um, 83 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Barry kind of passed through the time 84 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,839 Speaker 1: curtain and uh, it's possible. So because nobody, nobody says, 85 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: scan tool like my tony um. A couple of things 86 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: the number one romantic word when spoken by Barry White. 87 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 1: Here we go scan tool, and there it is ladies 88 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: and gentlemen. And that's the way it is here on 89 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: the Car Doctor every Saturday, two to four Eastern time. 90 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: A little a little bit of a rambling moment here, 91 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: just a couple of things I want to talk to 92 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: you about. First of all, I want let me get 93 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 1: this out of the way. IRB. Cooper, IRV Cooper always 94 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: has some and R. Cooper is one of the smartest 95 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: guys I know. He's just always got something to say 96 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: that really gives you a thought. He wrote me an email. Heyron, 97 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: thought for the hour. How come they can't develop an 98 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: ice resistant road surface material so they don't have to 99 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: put down salt every winter and fill potholes every spring. Well, 100 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 1: I think you're missing the point. If they don't have 101 00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: to fill potholes and they don't have salt to corrode 102 00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: the cars, they don't sell cars, and they don't have 103 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 1: anything for the waste taxpayers money on But um point taken, 104 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. Now. I will tell you this that 105 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: you notice that they've started to here in North Jersey, 106 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: they've put down those red strips in the corners when 107 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: you go around corners, and I think that's drainage for 108 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 1: when the from when the road is wet, to help 109 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: provide more traction. But it's an interesting thought. Why can't 110 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: we make better road material to help control the ice 111 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: and the snow? Uh, you know, better, easier, quicker, kinder, 112 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 1: and uh you know that that type of thing. I 113 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: want to talk a little bit about parts. I want 114 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: to talk a little bit about thumb designs because um, 115 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: you know what I I I just got a call 116 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: and like I said, we got to work on a 117 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen Ford transit UH to fifty work fan this week, 118 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: thirty mile service and oil change and you know, things 119 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: like that. And because it's a commercial vehicle, one of 120 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 1: the things that is listed, you know, as a possible 121 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: service would be to change the trans fluid. So we 122 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: looked at it for that and we've decided that the 123 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: trans is probably gonna go to the junk heard with 124 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: this car with the original fluid in it, because there's 125 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: I think to change the trans fluid you have to 126 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: lift the body off the off the the brace or 127 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, I knew I was in trouble when the 128 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: book time to change trans fluid on the transit was 129 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 1: three point four hours. Um, you know to change the 130 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 1: filter at all. And you look at it. There's a 131 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: brace underneath the pan, which is basically the front suspension, 132 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 1: and you have to get that out of the way 133 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: to lower the pan. There's just no way to access anything. 134 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,599 Speaker 1: And as much as I love for It's and I 135 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: I like for it, I think for It makes a 136 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 1: great product. I'm not sure what the engineers were thinking. 137 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: I think they missed it on that one. And I 138 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: don't understand why in this day and age, we still 139 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: don't have a nice, big rear wheel drive van that's 140 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: easy to service and maintain. One of the things I 141 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: never understood about vans in general over the years is 142 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: they're large. There's got to be a better way to 143 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: design and make things serviceable. I never understood. I wonder 144 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: what my idea is. Look at look at a large truck. 145 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 1: Look at the snap bon tool truck. I got this, 146 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: the mactool truck. They show up, They've got a flip nose. 147 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 1: You've got those two rubber bands that you you take 148 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: them off in the nose tilts forward. See you can 149 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: get in there and work on the engine. Why can't 150 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: they make a van like that that you can flip 151 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: it forward and work on the engine and and and 152 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: get to everything, and just make it so that you're 153 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: not you know, listen, it doesn't take a genius to 154 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: figure out that if you put the body on top 155 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: of the engine and you can't get access to it, 156 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: you can't work on it. I mean, hello, duh uh. 157 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 1: You know, you get two a hundred thousand miles, you've 158 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: got to start to do everything. I was in diesel 159 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: class a week and a half, two weeks ago, and 160 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: I was talking to a Ford tech and he's a 161 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 1: he's an a Ford dealer here in the area, and 162 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: we were comparing notes and telling war stories, and he 163 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: was telling me about how backed up they are servicing 164 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: the four diesels, the various diesel families that Ford has 165 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: that are converted into ambulances. You know, they get the 166 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: commercial Chassias and so forth. When when a Ford diesel, 167 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: when anything breaks, he said, you know, and they've got 168 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: to lift the body off the frame. It's it's it's 169 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: a three week process to to to put injectors in 170 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: because it's just hours and hours and hours, all the 171 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: all the electrical connections, all the things that you know, 172 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: you start to think about, look at look at all 173 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: the stuff that are in it that's inside of an ambulance, 174 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: you know, for for life saving, and all those things 175 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: have to be accounted for and disconnected and reconnected and 176 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: and what are you gonna do in that vehicle body 177 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: has a hundred thousand miles on it being in North Jersey, 178 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: and it's three years old or five years old or 179 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: seven years old, and the bolts don't want to come out, 180 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 1: and everything is good and rusty, and you know, how 181 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: are you going to achieve that? And you know, he said, 182 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: there's a backlog now of servicing the four diesels, the 183 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: commercial chassis and the dealership because of that. And it's 184 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: a it's a problem. And I said, you know, I 185 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: don't understand why they don't make a tilt nose. To me, 186 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: it would just be, it would seem to be that 187 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: it would be just just just so easy, you know, 188 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: just just really so easy. I want to pick on 189 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: Toyota for a minute. Had eleven see I'm on nondiscriminatory. 190 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: I had a two thousand eleven Toyota Corolla this week 191 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: that had a bad ignition switched. The lock tumbler got Jim. 192 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: We had to put a lock cylinder and an ignition 193 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: locks cylinder. It's probably about two and a half inches long. 194 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: It's maybe an inch in diameter. You know. It's the 195 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: physical locks cylinder that that goes inside the master switched 196 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: that's inside the column. So it needed a new It 197 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: needed a new lock cylinder assembly, and we got one 198 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: out of Toyota. They were the only ones that made it. 199 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: None the local parts houses had it. Nobody in the 200 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:36,839 Speaker 1: after market makes it, which might be a good thing. 201 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 1: And this little too by one inch piece of steel 202 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: was two d and sixty two dollars. And I looked 203 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: at it and I shook it that no gold dust 204 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: came out of it. I checked. I wanted to be 205 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: sure because I thought maybe we were smuggling bullion or something. Um. 206 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: I thought maybe a little white powder was gonna fall 207 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 1: out of the inside, like you know, what are we doing? 208 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: I didn't get it. Um, you know, and it just 209 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 1: it slowly puts, you know, I look at that and 210 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: it's it just tells me. It's slowly puts. The price 211 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: of order repair out of the reach of so many people. 212 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: And it said, you know, by the time you're done 213 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: you buy the locks cylinder, you've got to send it 214 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: off to the locksmith. Get it, um, you know, get it, 215 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: get it recoded so that you have two of the 216 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: same keys, because Toyota can't do that. UM, see for 217 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: it to their credit and I give, I give credit 218 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 1: where credit is due. You there was a couple of 219 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: years of Ford where you can give them the vent 220 00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: and GM does this too, and you can key code 221 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: everything the same when you order it new, so you 222 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: you know, you get the same lock combination that you 223 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: had when you purchased the vehicle Toyota. So now you 224 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: would have two sets of keys that would one would 225 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 1: open the door in one would turn the ignition. And 226 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: you know what, that would just drive me absolutely crazy, 227 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 1: even though that's the way cars were in the seventies 228 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: on a lot of things. So by the time you 229 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: get done doing the locks cylinder, getting things coded, um, 230 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: you had a dolly and and you know, get the 231 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,079 Speaker 1: car in the shop because you can't get the car 232 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: to start with you n later you've got a lot 233 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: cylinder that the car will start and run and turn 234 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 1: and and do what it's supposed to do. So um, 235 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: you know, you look at the price of cars, and 236 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: I keep thinking I had an answer the other day 237 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,200 Speaker 1: in my head. I said, I wonder if we'll ever 238 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: achieve the point. And I'm being serious here where when 239 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 1: the car dies, will you just leave it on the 240 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 1: side of the road. You won't own it, right, It'll 241 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 1: be it'll be a rental. And you know, I want 242 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: to be the guy that drives that the scrap vehicle. 243 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: I'm thinking they're gonna have like a giant vehicle that's 244 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: gonna roll along, suck the car up, shred it, recycle it, 245 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: and they'll just deliver you another car, plastic molded, injected, 246 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: you know, printed, uh, vehicle that will send you on 247 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 1: your way. So just just some nonsensical ravings from a 248 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 1: lunatic mind, I guess. But that was the week in 249 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 1: order repair. That's what got me. Uh, that's what got 250 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: me through the week. Just a lot of strange things 251 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 1: that I saw that made me scratch my head. Just 252 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: poor design and expensive parts. And you can see that 253 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 1: we are headed for um, We're headed. We're headed for 254 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 1: the abyss. And in terms of ort to repair and 255 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 1: you really got to start thinking about what you're doing 256 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: and how you're gonna do it, because ever so much 257 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: more cars are fast becoming a lifestyle if there aren't 258 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 1: already in um just just just very expensive. But our 259 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: rear wiper arm four and then I'm gonna go, I'm 260 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: gonna pull over, um but a rear wiper arm for 261 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: an oh five Chevy Malibu Max. It's a piece of 262 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: plastic about uh fourteen inches long with a rubber wiper 263 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: blade on it from GM, the only place you can 264 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: get it. Nobody makes it eight nine yeah, I mean, 265 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: you know we buy wiper blades there twelve fifty bucks. 266 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: Y wiper arm six bucks. You know, maybe it's dollars 267 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 1: for the whole thing ninety and you can't you know, 268 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: it seems that when you find the part that nobody 269 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: else can make and it's it's manufacturer only, boy, it's 270 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: sure as expensive, But as soon as somebody in the 271 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: after market figures out how to make it, it sure 272 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: gets cheaper, which makes me think, Thank God for the 273 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 1: after market. Sometimes five zero zero the car doctors coming 274 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: right back. Stay tuned. When you get keep Ron's number 275 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,199 Speaker 1: hand eight five five five zero nine zero zero for 276 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 1: when you really need advice on your car. Here's Rob. 277 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: Welcome back, wanted new car doctor. Let's see, I just 278 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: want to do this. I'm trying to do this email 279 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: for a while. I think I think his name. I 280 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: think it's Tom. That's right, Uh, fix it all high Ron. 281 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 1: It seems a c. Delco makes two grades of new 282 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 1: parts GAM original equipment and professional grade parts. For example, alternator, 283 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: the original equipment one is eighty dollars higher than the 284 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: professional although both are new, there must be a difference 285 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 1: in quality. Assume this might be a point of interest 286 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: on today's program. Tom, you know what Tom it is. 287 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: And actually I experienced this this week as I was 288 00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 1: picking out parts for the suburban, because I'm trying to 289 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: get you. I'm trying to get the best I can. 290 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: And yeah, evidently, and GM is not alone that does this, 291 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: but it's it's probably just a good example of how 292 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 1: it works. So there's General Motors original equipment made by Delco, 293 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: and then there's Delco Professional Grade, which I always think 294 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: of as their retail over the counter. Not a bad 295 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: parts line, certainly not the best that Delco makes, and yes, 296 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: they make a Delco new and then a GM delco 297 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 1: O e OE UH new starter alternator. And I experienced 298 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: that picking out a starter for the suburban. H you know, 299 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: And I think it's a matter of pocketbook. I think 300 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: it's what do you you know, what can you afford? 301 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 1: And what are you ready to deal with? And you know, 302 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 1: warranty I think is you know, I didn't ask about 303 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: the warranty, but I thought it was pretty darn the same. Um. 304 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: But I will tell you this is the guy taking 305 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: the starter in and out. UH. Doing a starter on 306 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: an LS Suburban or Silverado, whatever it is you're working on, 307 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: UH is no easy task, you know, accessing the wiring 308 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: and the nuts and the bolts. So I'd rather put 309 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: the best possible part in because I always just you know, 310 00:14:58,240 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: it's for the eighty dollars. And I think in the 311 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 1: case the starter for the suburban, it was I think 312 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: it was a hundred and three dollars more for the 313 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: starter that was GM O week O we original equipment, 314 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 1: and UM, yeah, I forgot. The first one lasted me 315 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: fifteen years and the next one lasted me ten. Maybe 316 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: I'll get rid of it in twenty five years. Maybe 317 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: I won't be driving it. Who knows. Maybe it won't 318 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: be gasoline for it, but in any event, Uh yeah, 319 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 1: there's a there's definitely a difference in quality, and um, 320 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: you've always got to look at the quality of the part. 321 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: I always find one of the best things to ask 322 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: is if you don't know, ask the guy behind the counter, Hey, 323 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: what's your better line? What what aren't you having problems with? 324 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 1: And certain lines of parts and I should point that 325 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: out to certain lines of parts will work better. You know, 326 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: have clunkers in them, things that just don't work, and uh, 327 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: you know they have some stuff that works really well. 328 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: And that's just the way it is. But buying auto parts, 329 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: I've said it for years, is like picking a salad. 330 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: You've gotta be a chef.

And 402 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 1: I said to myself, Now, if you ignore it, what happens? 403 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: It will fight you. The wheel will fight you. And 404 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:32,879 Speaker 1: if the if the autonomous car is lose um, you know, 405 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: with the road, they lose contact or whatever they have, 406 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: what happens, does it revert back to regular steering? Well, 407 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,359 Speaker 1: and steering is an issue. Listen, let's not even let's 408 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: let's not overthink this. Let's go back to basics. Let's 409 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: say it's a sixty degree day and the sun is 410 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: shining in the in the blue bird of happiness is 411 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: flying around, and you're you're you're driving down a perfectly 412 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: flat straight road at sixty and the right front tire 413 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: blows out right, you have a tire failure. If there's 414 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,360 Speaker 1: no steering wheel on the car because it's self driving, 415 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: all right, Or let's say there is a steering wheel 416 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: on the car, but you're not behind the wheel, you're 417 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: in the back seat. How are you going to get 418 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: that car off the road? How are you going to react? 419 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 1: How are you gonna you know, there's there's there, there's 420 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: a split second of oh before you know, before you 421 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 1: do it, you say it and then you do it. Well, 422 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 1: you know what's going to have to be is and 423 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,400 Speaker 1: my thought is, you know how they have those sensors 424 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: in the car if you, um, if you get your 425 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: license back there after you've been drinking, you have to 426 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: blow into this thing breath all right, all right, So 427 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: that's gonna have to sense whether somebody's sitting there, because 428 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,120 Speaker 1: what happens is they're not sitting there, and that scenario 429 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: comes up that you developed to the curtains everybody. Well, yeah, 430 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: you know, I think self driving cars have a place, Michael. 431 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: You know, I think for those, for those they can't 432 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,719 Speaker 1: get around as easily as the rest of us for 433 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 1: whatever reason. Um, you know, but I'm not going to 434 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 1: drive afourd escape. Give me a Corvette. Well you know it. 435 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: You know, the question becomes, you know what, I put 436 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: my nine year old mom in a car and say 437 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: take her to the doctor. You know, uh, you know, 438 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: only if you know mom wanted to check out that day. 439 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: Maybe it's you know, you know, it's like it depends 440 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,400 Speaker 1: on the mood. Um you know, and you know, let's 441 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:34,719 Speaker 1: face it, I guess as we will get up there 442 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 1: and eight. Sometimes we're all like, okay, it's time to go. Uh. 443 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: You know, it's just it's it's just doesn't have its place, 444 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: and and I don't I don't know that we're ready 445 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: for it. You know, you're driving on the highway again 446 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: at six and that vehicle has a problem. You've got 447 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: to get it off the road. But Ryan, you see 448 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 1: these idiots when the snow comes, it looks like they've 449 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: never drove in it before, just spending out doing all 450 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: kinds of crazy stuff. Maybe a time of this car 451 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: for somebody like that would be great because it would 452 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: just keep them under control. But to that point, you know, 453 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: I wonder, and I'm sure, Mike, I'm sure that somebody's 454 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: gonna try and invent it if they haven't already, you know, 455 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: to make a self driving car drive through a blizzard. 456 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 1: But you know, the driving conditions are not always sixty 457 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: eight degrees sunny, warm blue happiness. You know, it's it's 458 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 1: there are some there are some lousy weather conditions. For 459 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 1: lack of a better way to say it, never say lousy. 460 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: It's a bad word. I was always taught. So there 461 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: are some lousy weather conditions that just create you know, 462 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: human judgment, and you've got to you gotta know what's 463 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: going on. You gotta know what's going on. And I don't. 464 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 1: I don't think we're ready for self driving cars on 465 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: a on a larger scale. Partly, how's that? How's the 466 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: mind Carlo coming? It's getting there.

And 497 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to put him in self driving cars. 498 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: You know, where's the problem here. I think we're gonna 499 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 1: have to create self driving cars to carry the next 500 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: generation four because they're too stupid to do anything else. 501 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: And I hate to be harsh, yeah, you know, I 502 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 1: mean I hate to be harsh like that, but holy call, 503 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 1: if if you're not. If you're not smart enough to 504 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: know the danger of eating soap, you sure as hell 505 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: can't fix a car, and you sure as hell shouldn't 506 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 1: be driving one. Um. But anyway, you know, you always 507 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,199 Speaker 1: make my day. You know what, I'm trying to be 508 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 1: the uh bob Bob Grant is gone. Maybe I'll take 509 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: his job. Five zero zero zero will be back right 510 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: after this straight ahead, everybody. Wow, I where did that 511 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,160 Speaker 1: one come from? He kind of snuck that in there 512 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 1: that you know. I'm really surprised he hasn't played a 513 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: lot of Berry White today. No, no, but you know 514 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: the moments love one of Two Way Street was nice. 515 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: You need to play Barry White. I'm sitting here with him. 516 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 1: Well that's true. I've come to that conclusion. But you know, 517 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: to go back before we go to the next call, 518 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: to go back to the last comments about eating soap. 519 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 1: All right, and I realized this is off the realm 520 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: of order repair. But but in a way it's not 521 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 1: because it's a mark on society. You can't find technicians today, 522 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:57,560 Speaker 1: You can't train technicians fast enough. All right. If we 523 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,360 Speaker 1: have to worry about kids eating soap to the point 524 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 1: that we have to put a law in place to 525 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: keep them from doing it. You know, in nineteen forty four, 526 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 1: a day at the beach for a seventeen year old 527 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 1: was at a place called Normandy, all right. In in 528 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy four, a day at the beach for 529 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 1: my generation was Seaside Heights, New Jersey. All right. You 530 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: know this year, this generation, I don't know if they 531 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,679 Speaker 1: could find the beach, you know much, let's get there, 532 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:25,199 Speaker 1: because none of them want to drive, and they just 533 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: want to go down there in a self driving car. 534 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: They want somebody to do it for them. And I'm 535 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: not you know, I probably shouldn't condemn an entire generation, 536 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 1: but we're at the point where we've got to worry 537 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 1: about this. The kids today eating soap, and we're gonna 538 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: pass a law for it. Something's wrong we need. We 539 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,360 Speaker 1: don't need self driving cars, we need self fixing cars 540 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 1: because nobody's gonna be able to do it. Well. Like 541 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: when we're talking off the air, like I told you 542 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 1: there are forty nine other states not passing this law. 543 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: Tide will just pull out of New York. You know. 544 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 1: It's like it's real simple. That means more people will 545 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 1: be driving, will have more cars to talk about, to 546 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: be more broken cars. That might be the way to go. Um, 547 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 1: where we going here? Let's go over to Norwood, New York? 548 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 1: Is that calm celm It is, sir, and I appreciate 549 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: your time. I'd like to make an unusual request. My 550 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: medical condition prohibits me from writing because my right hand, 551 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:25,400 Speaker 1: my only one, really suffers intermittent, unpredictable shaking, and my 552 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: script is unintelligible every so often. But the letter that 553 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 1: I would like to share with other people whoever is 554 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: listing about unintended acceleration and autonomy is now seven years 555 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: old this month, and it was written to one of 556 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: the two publications Automotive that I buy still have been 557 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: with them for twenty years and more. And this one 558 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: is a niche limited interest for one vehicle only published 559 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: privately in Atlanta, called the t d R, and its 560 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 1: main purpose is information on Dodge Cummins rams, all of them. 561 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 1: I'm on my old one now, which does not die. 562 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: But the issue at the end of ten and through 563 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: was brought to the public's attention strongly by the crash 564 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: of Alexis I Think in California, containing a retired trooper 565 00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: and his entire family out of control, unable to interrupt 566 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: the plunge and rolled and burn, trapping them. Well, at 567 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: the same time, the editor of Turbo Diesel Register, the 568 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: magazine I mentioned, was soliciting info on self driving, an autonomy, 569 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 1: an unintended acceleration. Well, I wrote this, and it is 570 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: a brief letter and every word is to the point 571 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 1: from my own firsthand through my automotive career. I'd like 572 00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: to share it if I may real quickly. We've got 573 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: We've got about a minute and a half or it 574 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: won't make it. But the writer that stimulated my letter, 575 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: he had a Dodge ram age and equipment unknown. The 576 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: owner worked at a municipal airport, and because the guy 577 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: is a pillar of the magazine he got the request 578 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: helped me. So we went out to the airport whatever 579 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 1: state and said try to start it. And this air 580 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,840 Speaker 1: force vent was looking at the rotating radar screen above 581 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 1: the tower, said try to start it right now. It 582 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: did not even crank, so we're fifteen seconds for the 583 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: screen to rotate away and started. It started without trouble 584 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: every time the screen faced away from the hood. Well, 585 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: this triggered my article. Uh, let's see after I got 586 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: in read seventy one issue seventy one. I was asking 587 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: why do OT secretary realer hood category. He denied this 588 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: missed all electronic causes for the recent and largely Toyota 589 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: focused events. Later that day, after brief thought, I had 590 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 1: another If I had an answer, if the global Willams 591 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: made all consumer vehicles runaway proof unquote, a new compact 592 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: car would cost six figures well, yeah, and you would 593 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: also see um. Well, suffice it to say, in the 594 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 1: time we've got left at Yeah, self driving cars are 595 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: gonna be a problem from the perspective you present and 596 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 1: also from what they're going to create in terms of unreliability. Calm. 597 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 1: It's always a pleasure, sir, and uh, I wish we 598 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: could have given you more time. I wish we had 599 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 1: more time to give five zero nine zero. We're back 600 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:51,719 Speaker 1: right after this. Get that welcome back card.

No, I don't think so. Mon. 619 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: I think I'm kind of cast into this.

My fear is 663 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 1: that somehow you're going to see cars get to the 664 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: point where they're so expensive to repair that lesson less 665 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: people can repair them, less and less people can afford them. 666 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: And I don't know, it might not happen in my lifetime, 667 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: but I wonder if there will be a shift. You know, 668 00:34:57,960 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: you you you you look to the future and you 669 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 1: try to see ten twenty thirty years down the road, 670 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: and you know you wonder will there where whether or 671 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: not there will be quality auto parts, and um, so 672 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: you hope for survival of all of this. And uh, 673 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 1: you know I looked to a company like Bosch, like 674 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 1: I did so many times this week for parts for 675 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: the suburban and uh, some of the other vehicles were 676 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:21,840 Speaker 1: working on and um, you know, it's good to have 677 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: them here. It's good to know that somebody's got our 678 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 1: back for the time being. So let's hope that that 679 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: stays for a little long time. Well, um, where are 680 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: two hours ago?
