looking for quality BR Trans core

The Raleigh NC Westinghouse plant was the first non-Union plant in the country. Also they paid the same wages that the northern plants got. They were smart, when the union started sniffing around in the 70’s nobody down south wanted any part of it. Why, hell we make as much as you guys and have no due’s. Go back home. The second company that came south was IBM. Everyone wanted a job at Westinghouse or IBM as they paid more then anyone in the state

The unions, most anyways, in the last 20+ years have been their own worse enemies, don't care at all about the members, they're just a side of beef to be used. The only ones now with any power are the public ones because they donate the most to the demonrat party but that party is coming to an end soon. The teachers are just the mostest obnoxious. 30 years ago here the pos teachers onion (onion because it stinks) pushed and got a 40% all at once pay raise for them with the bs that no more kids would dropout and all would graduate with big averages. Made the assholes the highest paid assholes in the country and things got even worse. Today its the worst or 2nd worst school district in the country. Of course the onion president adam urscamski got a nice raise too from it. Imagine a 40% increase in monthly blackmail. Oops, there I go again, monthly dues.

Nothing, but they are one badass kind of car, let me tell you. The Demons are even more respectable.

I'm not a'skeerd to run either, but I know what they are, and have much respect for them,.

No doubt fast but what good is a car made by a company with the worst reputation for quality. Bet most won't make 25k miles before major issues. Fiat sure didn't start making them better, they just started making them like Fiats. Now the new Vette is supposed to be very good quality but than again its not your regular off the assembly line GM.

That wouldn’t bother me. Now I would really have some money in my old age, if I wasn’t such a dumb ass car nut. Now I wouldn‘t mind having a fast dodge, as far as breaking to soon. Ha, I have been known to get a new car when the one I was driving needed a new set of tires. The only car I keep for decades Was the GN.

Kitty always has a bunch of Vettes at her stealership, next time I'm over that way I'm going to take a gander. Friend said his friend ordered one back in April. He has a 2002 and is debating a new one, I'm not living right.
 
Haven't lost a race to anything is this one. Before the light turns green I drive over them and cruise to an easy win. :)

 
I wanted to open a discussion as to what people think is a fair price on removing the ads from your viewing and giving you access to a hidden forum or two. Im open to any other perks people might want that I can supply within reason so dont hesitate to throw something out.

Thanks
I've been a member here since 2001. Used the board on-and-off for about 20 years, met some good people through it, and learned a lot about these cars.

The knowledge contained here is very valuable. I'd pay $100+/yr to keep the lights on.

Stop right now. Every car is at the top of their list. After all its "initial" quality meaning they just drove it off the assembly line which is a miracle it made it that far. :LOL:
Besides, they don't do any testing but rely on people reporting to them plus they get paid for someone to get the ok to use jdp in their commercial.

You're compensating again.

Think about the quality of the build on our Buicks............ NO initial quality, they couldn't even make them stop.

Fucking pieces of shit, not a square corner or straight, lined up body line on a SINGLE one of them. NOT ONE.
80's Union work at it's ZENITH!!!!!!!

YOU stop right now, GM quality is still the WORST. In all aspects. Yet Dodge does 700 plus HP, WITH A WARRANTY, and keeps it affordable!!!!

Just saying. Sorry to piss on your parade. Truth can hurt sometimes.

Still loves my TR, though. I'm silly like that.

Wouldn't buy a GM Daily Driver product if they paid me to do so.
