I agree. Takes a little more 'skill' to maneuver around...

i plow in 2wd when the conditions are right. i was forced to plow in 2wd during the halloween nor'easter last year, as my pinion yoke on my front axle was bad.

if you know how to drive, and maneuver you truck correctly 2wd is a great concept!

Man, you ain't lyin'!!!

At least when I lived in Vidalia, there was a decent classic rock station in Savannah I could pick up. But in extreme south Georgia the only stations that weren't OLD country were either gospel or rap crap...

Tape player in our 1996 went bad years ago... Still plays, but with a lot of vibrato LOL... The mechanism is going bad causing it to misalign, and the heads are worn out too...

Haha... Even not in Georgia radio stations aren't that good... Here in Iowa I can get classical, rock, rap (WHICH I HATE), Blues (I'm not that blue) and a southern gospel station that used to be good but isn't anymore... Oh and a few contemporary, country, and bluegrass (but bluegrass station is about 80-100 mi away so usually can't get it unless the wind is from the south...). So i just listen to Internet radio through my smartphone... Much better, and usually it's from Ireland too!

There is a fairly good rock station out of Tifton, problem is it's hard to get good reception in Fitz.

I'm guessing that's what's going on with mine. It worked perfectly the last time I used it, which was maybe a day before it quit working. It will accept the tape but change sides, ya know the click click, then it ejects...

Gonna have to spring for a cd player. And I really don't wanna take off my bezel, might go back on in 3 or 4 pieces....

Aw hell, that's the classic "match book fix" deal. Get you a book of matches and wedge in the bottom of the tape until it plays right...

Not quite that way Hammer. At least not with mine... I try moving it up or down but no go still... BTW for everybody else, on the newer years of 2nd gen Dodge trucks, you can take the CD/Tape/AM/FM combo and put it in a truck that only came from the factory with just one or the other. That was what I was told...
