I no longer push my car like I use to( Contour SVT). Blowing front bearings a few times. No fun pulling steering knuckle out, having the bearing pushed out and a new one installed. then reinstalling knuckle. What happened to the good old days where you could pull the bearing out and repack. Sorry off on a tangent but just reminiscing.

Improvements in cars, tires, etc is great thing.
Improved comfort, safety and performance with less maintenance, all while getting much better MPG and having a longer service life. Occasionally I drive cars from the 50's and 60's and this just reinforces how much things have improved. |
SS exhaust, Tune up every 100k, not 10 k, steel belts no 4 ply tires, no pumping brakes when sliding, and on and on. Oh seat belts.
