RE: UNFREAKIN BELIEVEABLE !!!
Greasing that u-joint fitting wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the cross member directly below the u-joint! It does seem like a bad design, but I can imagine that if you're designing and building a pickup truck you must deal with lots of compromises and nagging little details.
I'm a engineer on a future weather satellite for NOAA. We just had a users conference in New Orleans; basically a bunch of meteorologists telling us what they think the next-gen weather satellite should do. At the program office we have to deal with things like the weight of the satellite, the budget, the time to design the instruments, the dependability of the technology, etc. The users get their reports with the click of a mouse on their PCs, and most of them probably have no idea what goes into getting all these instruments working in harmony in an orbit 22,000 miles from Earth. The users constantly **** and moan because we're not developing xxx (pick your favorite weather instrument) for the next satellite. If I hear one more meteorologist say, "How come the European weather satellites havexxx on board their satellite, and we don't?" I'm going to choke the bastard!

He's a whiny pompus tool ON the air. I can only imagine what he's like off the air.
