Without the “safety features” I would have carried across the sunny patch with no problems, instead I completely lost control of the vehicle and only avoided a crash because the road was empty. Needless to say, all the “safety” BS got turned off right away.

It’s time to be brutally honest about that. It’s a lie we tell ourselves. Worse, it’s a dangerous lie. As the roads get more crowded, the threat level goes up. In my opinion, it’s idiotic to argue against things like lane-departure warning because “the idiots will ignore it”. First, that’s a stupid blanket statement. If you’ve ever driven a car with the seat buzzers, you know that this is a crap argument. It’s bloody hard to ignore. Second, as I mentioned before, we all screw up. Yes, some people will ignore the warnings. But most won’t. And, I predict, the warnings will make people more aware of their own failings. If your car tells you that you need to pay attention, most people will heed that warning if only to reduce the annoyance factor. That will yield a net improvement in overall safety.
Caterpillar Marine has launched its latest generation of azimuth thrusters. The new MTA v3 thruster is based on the design of the v2 and is built in accordance with Caterpillar’s CPS procedure for maximum quality verification, the company said.
In addition, the base warranty for marine engines from 19 to 60 L in a heavy-duty or medium continuous-duty rating has been extended 1000 hours beyond the previous term, while intermittent-duty coverage for the same engine range has extended 1500 additional hours. Cummins continues to offer optional Encompass coverage, which can provide an additional three years/10,000 hours of coverage to the engine.

The water pump leaking is just another problem that the Chevy Silverado 1500 has had. The water pump is a very important part for your car and helps pumps coolant through your engine and back to the radiator to be cooled off. Signs of a leak can be fluid under your car dripping while on or off, overheating and your car smoking from under the hood. If the water pump fails it can also lead to melting nearby plastic components causing a fire or causing your engine to completely fail. According to Cars, Chevy will fix this issue for Silverado owners.
The PPU 330 update includes a shaft generator regulation feature. Without this feature, the process of shifting shaft generators requires a complex process of starting up a diesel generator and synchronising and deloading the first shaft generator, before synchronising to the second. The new feature allows the second shaft generator to start synchronising while the first is still running, saving time and reducing running hours of the diesel generator, consequently reducing fuel consumption and maintenance requirements.
Joel Rode’s Hot Rod Specialties shop in Upland, California, performed the new engine installation along with the FiTech system. With everything bolted in place, we met the ’56 at Westech Performance Group for a final rundown and tune on the chassis dyno. Because of some transmission issues they weren’t able to perform a full power run but, using the Superflow electric dyno, they were able to do some final highway cruise air/fuel ratio tuning by setting a given speed that allows the dyno operator to manipulate various throttle settings while maintaining a given speed. This is something only a load-based dyno like the Superflow can perform.
Although the plaintiff claims the extended warranty didn’t fix the problems, FCA argues Victorino was not affected by an incomplete X62 extended warranty repair because his vehicle never had or even needed the repair, and therefore, he has not suffered the same injury as other Dart owners who claim they have suffered.
(6) Honda CRF450. These forks are decent for light and slow riders and work well on some tracks, but the forks ride low in their stroke, giving up the easy travel to sit on a harsh spot. The rigidity of the frame and stinkbug stance aren’t easy problems to solve. We slapped last year’s 2018 CRF450 Showa forks on our 2019 machine. This helped balance out the chassis and brought the forks up in the stroke so they weren’t riding in the harsh spot as much. Even though the forks are the same internally, Honda used a fork oil that has less stiction.
The retro design of this truck was a hit back in the early 2000s. During this period, vehicles that featured classic designs would automatically succeed. For this reason Chevrolet brought in a retro-styled truck having a sporty feel and retractable hard top. With this design Chevrolet thought the truck would feature as a lifestyle vehicle that most people wanted however, they were more interested in retro vibe and the speed. The performance of this car wasn’t that amazing, but could sprint to 60 mph in six seconds. Despite having relatively slow speed, the truck’s design, big wheel and unique silhouette made it peculiar and people loved it. However, the truck has a price tag of $45,000 making it unaffordable. This isn’t a real truck either – it can’t haul big loads since the cabin and bed is too small and cramped.
