I think they tried to fit way too much into the commander. For...

You're example sounds like it comes from a '50's era movie. I was thinking the same thing.......I had a picture in my mind of John Candy or Chevy Chase driving a wood grain wagon from the late 70s with a trailer in tow.

you can special order a 450 or 550 with a bunch of different engines, can't you? You might need to provide more information.

I love when you get into an argument with the guys in a tire place about torque. 'It's a hundred pounds'. No it's not, I want them at 75. 'Well, you're going to have to sign this waiver'. No, why don't you look up the specs. Then they grab the TorkStix!!! Around the end of the summer, I took my '96 to a shop that everyone I work with recommended as The Best.

We had the codes for a while and I finally found that the 3/8" rubber hose going from the hard line to the charcoal canister was cracking on both ends. Replaced it, cleared the codes and it has been fine...

Second meeting with management and the artsy-fartsy team--provisional go-ahead is given. 4. Clay models are made. 5. Third meeting with management and the artsy-fartsy team--clay model is approved. 6. Meeting with management and the engineers--"There it is, make the crap fit in it." Simplified version, but true....
