1 I bought due to the size. It fits my needs. It is easy to drive, park and care for. It is about the size of trucks in 1988.

As for better dealers being GM only means little. It is more due to larger dealer networks that can get lost in just interest in moving cars only not full service experience.

lets start by putting an age limit on cars being allowed on the road, any car over 17 years for example, introduce it now and give people a two year warning that its going to happen.

The rack and pinion fence extension is a favorite among the team and earned the top ranking there. A dual riving knife system eliminates the need to frustrate yourself with complicated anti-kickback pawls and blade guard placement. Simply swap out the riving knife only for the knife with pre-installed safety attachments and you’re good to go.

Drool-worthy by any measure, the Speedster gets its bones from the company’s 911 GT3. To shed weight, Porsche has taken great care to rid the vehicle of excess baggage like air-conditioning. It is also draped in carbon fiber—the hood, rear deck, double bubbles (aerodynamic humps) and even the fenders are made of the lightweight material. There’s even a hand-operated fabric top, no motorization to weigh he car down.

Cyclocross brakes come in three predominant types: cantilevers, disc brakes, and mini-v’s (technically called mini-linear pull).  The godfather of ‘cross bike binders is the cantilever-style which, despite lacking all-out power, remains popular on the Euro race circuit for their light weight, reliability, and clearance for mud. (If you’re in the canti camp, make sure you’re getting the most out of them.) The newest contender, the hydraulic disc brake, is certainly on its way to dominance, now coming as standard equipment on many new ‘cross bikes.

Because of the great diversity in tool voltages and battery amp-hour ratings, we declined to perform runtime testing for these saws. A lot of runtime is based on watt-hours of the batteries, so all things wouldn’t be able to be considered equal with the testing. With batteries ranging from 72 to 180 watt-hours, some have a lot more fuel in the tank than others. Add to that the fact that mere 3.0 Ah battery packs running older technology saws made it through hundreds of feet of OSB in my saw test several years ago. So with 16 saws in our shootout today, I’d be worn out long before the latest mega-packs would be.

Next in line is the surprising Greenworks Digi Pro. Though the smallest, lightest, and least expensive saw in the test, it proved a decent performer. Not on par with the upper half of the tools tested, it performed well enough to be considered the bargain choice of the category.

With cyclocross wheels, 700c with knobbies, or with a monster cross setup, 650b with 47mm knobbies, the fun really began. The frame stiffness, short chainstays and quick front end made tight courses fun.

The true two-step lockouts aren’t difficult to operate in normal conditions. In odd positions, such as reaching around a tree while limbing, sometimes the mechanical lockouts can be tricky to slide. The electronic switch saws can be run with a single grab once they are powered on, but since the Greenworks Digi Pro times out after one minute, and the Kobalt after only 16 seconds, it can be frustrating the pull the trigger to no effect when you thought the saw was ready.

You order it yourself, fine. You set up a company, w/ T&B Licence, store front, etc. to order in and resell cars, fine. You order in a car to resell (no T&B) and park it on the side of the road with a 4 Sale sign, not fine.

Good question, not sure. On one hand it’s not technically a direct replacement since this is 12s only, yet on the other hand this has more goodies.
