    History of Automotive Side Windows

    First vehicle I had with power windows is my '81 Corvette I bought in '84 that I still have. My '65 Galaxie had the crank open front vent windows and every ones since were crank ones with no vent windows. Now my Silverado has power everything that I do find quite convenient.

    Dishwashers losing popularity in US Homes???

    Well, If my dishes stay in the dishwasher for up to a week, they will be rinsed off, otherwise the dishwasher will stink. Disposer is not an option on a septic system.

    I am an old fart and load my 31 year old Whirlpool packed full and run it once a week. Washing dishes by hand is not something I want to ever do

    How long is too long to dry in a domestic dryer

    We had an ancient Bendix gas dryer that Broiled the clothes when I was a kid. My mother wanted the timer set for 1 hour and clothes came out way too hot. My Maytag set at Less Dry will usually dry a load fully in 30-45 minutes and the clothes are cooled down.
