If she was driving the truck would have been lost somewhere in the mountains and the cars still wouldn't be here!!

You are all wrong....the ******************** would use the Military to delivery them. Let the tax payers foot the bill...

keep the political opinions to the appropriate forum and this isn't it.

When thinking of this, recall that the Speaker of the House, no matter the party, is 2nd in line as a successor to the President and so there are security issues in his or her transportation. As one who has seen first hand and up close the carnage after an assassination attempt on the president ... I don't begrudge that.

Are you nuts? She utilized a C-32 (757) to fly back and fourth to California at a minimum of once a week for four years because she didn't want to fly on a C-20 (Gulfstream III) because she would have to stop for gas. That ******************** has cost the American tax payer millions of dollars in operating cost, personnel and tying up USAF assets. The part about being third in line to the Presidency...the Secret Service has standing orders to shoot Nancy if anything happens to the first two.

Stroked & Blown, great come back!!

+1. I don't come to this forum to read political opinions. I come here to read about how Jake is dealing with all of our blown up engines!

I could care less about Pelosi. I don't have time to worry about things I can't control..She doesn't represent my state (she'd NEVER get elected here!) and she has been de-throned anyway.

Well, ALL THREE of the cars that came in on that truck are certifiably DEAD.. Both of the 996s had intermix. The Boxster also had what appears to be a cracked cylinder, it failed all our tests on cylinder #3.

Are you at liberty to say how many 986/996 failures (ball park) you've seen come to your shop and how many years that comprises?

We've been working with the engines for about 8 years... I have no idea how many failed engines we've seen, undoubtedly more than anyone in the US, as thats what we specialize in. I have some sort of documentation on most every one, so I certainly could add up a number if I wanted to.

Yes, all 3 of the vehicles that came in on that truck are in need of an upgraded engine or my CPO engine.

i take that to mean that total rebuild /replacement is required?
