While out on the road weeks back I got caught in a real storm coming down from Rochester and through the Poconos. Damn thing followed me as I tried to outdrive it South. We all have storm stories, this was one of those where you can't see the lane markings. Used the guardrail to insure I didn't...

Late recommendation as I was out of town about tracking bushings and bearings--- I know a screwdriver can conduct the sound over by the mastoid bone, but it is not always convenient to get the right position. Buy a stethoscope for the purpose. They are dirt cheap and keep you well out of all...
