I have had few problems with my Jeep beyond normal wear and tear. I like the steering on mine. In fact, I prefer it to other vehicles I have driven due to the response. I understand that some of the Jeep's that came later had problems with the steering and the front end. A 2006 would fall into that category. Mine has been a pretty reliable vehicle for me so far. I have put a lot of miles on it. The only issue I had with it was at around 50K miles the transmission threw a barring. It was still under extended warranty so it cost me about $100 dollars for a new transmission. The guy that repaired it said it was a fluke that happens across all car models and not something just in Jeeps.
The education bureaucracy in this country is broken. Trying to put putty and duct tape on that broken system will not fix the underlying rot nor will simply throwing more money at it will either. There needs to be a viable alternative spring up in its place. Home schooling and co-ops are the closest thing we have to such an alternative that is directly supported by those that use it thus allowing more local parental control over both what is being taught and the finances involved.
HA! I have spent thousands for transmission and/or transfer case! (for the 2004 transmission and then the 2006 transfer case). Still less than the price of replacing the vehicle . . . and getting a used one for a reasonable price who knows when those would fail? Bottom line, during Covid there were no affordable used ones!
The miles on my 2004, well it could have made it to the moon! But not back again. HA!
I loved my 2004, and wanted one just like it, so the 2006 was perfect! Still is, but it is getting problems ...
The teacher colleges, teacher unions, have made SURE that there IS no local control of schools! It is a travesty. I inherited textbooks from the late 1880s and early 1900s. They taught Lain in public schools, to rural kids!
Cool about the books. I learned Latin in High School with a little bit of Greek to boot. My teacher was fluent in several languages. I am pretty sure no schools offer Latin as a language any more. Most kids now don't even write cursive any longer. If they try to use the cursive they learned at home they get in trouble at school. We don't teach kids shit any more. Just how to be activists.
Exactly - especially our founding documents. I have seen examples in school textbooks that don't even print what the documents even say correctly. They like to omit key items, like God. They use the 3 dots... where God should be and leave the rest out. Absolutely diabolical.

Yes keep the Jeep!

Denying them the classic languages and cursive is to ensure they cannot read the history of civilization!!
