look at it from another angle as well.Other folks have posted that they know auto engineers, and supposedly they do the stupid designs for efficiency or some other horseshit. I firmly believe they do it to discourage people from working on their own vehicles. Make it a PITA so they'll take it to the stealership for work. The mechanics there deal with the PITA, but they are on the clock and the book says it takes X amount of hours to do a job, that would have taken 15 minutes under a shade tree, a jack and a few hand tools. Tell me wrong.
Travis to UAE non-stop over the pole 18+ hours. Did it a few times.
Likely because they all worship Lucas the dark lord of smokeOk, you’re the exception. I have a hard pass for any limey Brit auto engineer though. I haven’t worked on a ton of British cars but from what I’ve seen, those engineer blokes are all related in the worst possible way
Yes they designed it. Do you think they designed it that way to piss off mechanics? Or do you think the designed the way they did because their bosses gave the fuel efficiency / ease of assembly on the production line / production cost / product cycle production timelines / etc. goals?
Get a little tail, and they'll follow you anywhere.Is that the equivalent of holding her purse while she shops? King of Beasts my ass.
looks to me like that is the way a bull handles a woman when she gets to telling him what to do
That bull figured that the quickest way to get rid of him was to flip him over the fence.
Do they make a filter relocation kit?Follow the money.
It was designed that way so that less and less people can fix and maintain their own vehicles. It was designed that way so that people have to take the vehicle back to the dealer for repairs and service.
One small example is the three trucks I have owned in the last 22 years. All Dodge (now Ram) all with a Cummins diesel. The 2001 model was very easy to maintain. Fuel and oil filters were very easy to get to. The 2008 model, the oil filter was very easy to get to, but the fuel filter was a bit of a pain. The 2016 model, I currently have, has three fuel filters, one at the tank, one on the firewall, and one above the frame behind the front driver side tire. The firewall filter requires a ladder beside the fender to get to. The frame filter requires going between the frame and inner fender.
The oil filter takes the cake though. You cannot get to it from beneath. The 4WD front end completely obscures it. You cannot get to it from above. The ail cleaner, A/C lines and alternator almost obscure it. You get to it via the inner fender and frame from the passenger side front wheel. You have to tilt it horizontal to get it out, dumping black engine oil on the front end and on the floor. No other way around it.
For decades, the Ford Powerstroke has certain procedures to correct engine problems that require removal of the entire cab of the truck. That makes those procedures very expensive.

I have never investigated that.Do they make a filter relocation kit?

Reminiscent of a girl I took shooting today. Thicc thighs make excellent ear muffs.I know this is a repost, but my feeble attempt to get back on target. Yeehaw!
Yes. No. Maybe.

The correct search term should be "Louboutin Erotic" or "Louboutin Slut", etc. The correct, amd only allowable brand of "Dem shoess" are Christian Louboutin. They are characterized by their unmistakable red bottoms.
See below for example and reference:

No. Not possibly. Not maybe. I do appreciate the effort [hair flip].View attachment 8084636
This kind of red bottom?
