Oh yes it is an addiction. I always find as I am searching through the posts that although, I never set out to read about a certain subject, there is so much info and so many good ideas unless you happen to read them all you are just plain missing out.
Incidentally I was wondering if it is somehow possible to move some technical posts to a place on the board where we can look them up when the time comes that we need them. As an example there was a post by GMCPAUL a while ago about recovering seats, it would be really nice to be able to save that somewere on the board.

How 'bout "Mr. Defensive", that character Martin Short used to play on SNL:

This board is not addictive! The good doctor told me it is for therapy. He said that I didn't have to go back to that lonely, quiet, padded little room as long as I watched the board and learned great truck info. Oooopps, gotta go now, here comes the nice nurse with the medicine so I can go lay down.

it always seems that you find something useful that someone posts on this board,kinda like the primeing of the windshield washer fluid hoses to get you're washer fluid working again. there's always somethin' on here you can use.

Naw.......no addiction here, just because my truck cries out when I don't share "board" information with her is absolutely NO indication to the underlying preception relating to addictions previously mentioned.

I started a thread about this on "General Discussion" a week or 2 ago. Must not be as many read that - anyway I'm glad to see it affects many others. If you stop and actually think about it, it is an addiction. I've only been on since last Christmas Day and I check it 4 or 5 times a day and spend a couple hours in the evenings.
