Re: [OM] OT: Cox Wifi Speed

[Jim Nichols]

I have a similar dilemma with a 26yr old Chevy S10 P/U which has only 
73,000 actual miles on it.  A lady up the street sees it sitting, little 
used, and wants to buy it for her teenage son. But this truck was 
originally bought to pull a boat on a trailer, it was built before 
airbags, and has a 4.3 liter V6.  Lots of torque for a heavy-footed, 
easily distracted youngster.  I just put a new battery in it after 7 
years, and will keep it to haul recycling items to the collection 
center, if it ever opens again.
