So, the other day Dan-O pulled up next to me and tell me I got no lights. No brakelights, no turn signals. After 174,500 miles, something is broken… Nope. Just a couple bulbs, again, just the kind of thing that happens every 140,000 miles. I gotta admit that I’m starting to realize this can’t go on forever.

It’s amazing to me that (a) I’ve never had any trouble with the Dakota, and (b) how slowly parts fade, so much so that as a daily driver you barely notice that 30k has ran out. Either way, I cleaned up the throttle body...
