I had a 1950 Chevy that the steering wheel would come off. Of course the car was sort of beat up and I took the steering wheel in at night as the car had no key and started by hot wiring. It got me to work and back in the 60s.

Heh. My first thought/association. BTW, any idea what’s Russian for “Yeehaaw/Hold my vodka and watch this!”?

This should be all over the news if we based on the trashing of Toyota.

But it isn’t.

What do folks expect withthe fabulous union workers out on break smoking dope and drinking booze out of bottles in paper bags?

My husband’s brother was a big union worker for one of the now defunct car companies. He did the same.

"Built with Craftsmanship by UNION LABOR"....can't have non-union people doing it, as they are not "qualified", and ONLY a Union worker is so highly trained, highly compensated, and is ALWAYS awakened in time to do his job or turning 3 screws an hour for his pay, no more, and the Taxpayer makes sure his Pension Fund stays always solvent!

Is this a great country, or what?

The Winnebago story is an urban legend. The Winnebago website actually mentions the tale:

Darn it...all the good stuff turns out to be BS. Well, the LFBC for Obangi is still active!!

When that happens, all you have available is the rudder pedals and differential thrust.
