I can tell you that some folks will not like the slimmed down coverage they will get with Obamacare. I think there are going to be some real surprises for folks. No more gold plated plans for retirees. If the 27% cut on Medicare coverage goes through you will hear a lot of screaming. Nothing will happen till after the 2012 election. I know our Teamster plan was always running close to going under with $1200 per month premium. When the company tried pulling us out of the Teamster plan into a BlueCross plan it was even higher priced for equal coverage. And our coverage was lousy by the time I retired. MC is so much better. For now with Kaiser that is.
I just replaced my Upper and Lower Ball Joints on both sides on my 98 Jimmy 4wd and a couple days later had an incident where after driving, stopped at the store. When I got back in the brake pedal went to the floor and I seemed to only have rear brakes. Thankfully, my trip was all uphill to get home so I wasn't too concerned but once I applied the brakes to turn, I once again had full pedal and the brake light went out. Initially I thought that I may have damaged a brake line during the ball joint change and that it was leaking but no leak and MC is full. I have heard of internal brake line failure but this usually causes the caliper to lock up. In the process of changing the ball joints, I did have to remove the Calipers from the Spindle and had to slightly compress the calipers to remove them but once pumped up they seemed ok until this happened. Could this be a MC or Proportioning Valve problem? I live in WV Mountains so brakes and good ones are important.
ANYTHING on the net is reading matter no matter how poorly informative it is. How does Transmission fluid get dirty at 30,000 miles. It might get burnt if you are having transmission problems but not dirty. “It might be a good thing to get it changed for viscosity purposes, but not dirt.” You must be a chemist, I never knew viscosity changed, thanks! “Even so, 30,000 miles seems way too soon for that.” And a auto engineer as well! “I certainly didn't know timing chains had oil leaks, or "O' rings for that matter.” Pray tell what gizmo is it that keeps most lubricants getting past shafts? “Why did you have your brakes replaced in the first place?” Some people are hard on brakes, but only Einstein would know that. “ Rotors should never have had to be replaced at just 30,000 miles.” Another real internet gem for misinformation. “Did you know they can be resurfaced for just a fraction of the cost to replace them.” Quite true, but do you know what specs they were within? “Also, brake fluid should never have to be changed unless it got corrupted with water, you would feel this in the firmness of the brake pedal.” Good maintenance advises changing brake fluid as it absorbs water from the air into the MC and will rust out the brake lines from within. Water is NOT compressible so will not be felt on the pedal. A soft pedal indicates air in the system. That’s enough about what I mean regards to misinformation on the internet
