Yes, when US plants closed, much the same occurred. Massive financial hardship for many. Not only former employees either.

those were mainly marketing terms.

GM South Africa could have built them but I don't know if they only do pickups and utes or a crossover SUV. Given the population of Australia still under 40 million, they never sold a lot. Even if 75% of them drove. Holden's best year was 1971 with 191,670 units produced. A lot considering the...

Maytag cheese too still?

I think Maytag did make one car actually. 😄

My sister bought a comforter once from TJ Max that stunk like funk. Someone had obviously slept??? in it returned it. So did she.

Wasn't it Australian parlaiment that ended the subsidies for the entire auto industry? They've all closed. GM, Ford, Toyota, etc. all said it just wasn't going to be profitable anymore. Did the Holden Cruze sell very well? It's been discontinued by Chevrolet too. I still see GTO's, G8's and SS's...

I agree with you Jrap. Products can also be cheapened to save production costs. Otherwise the retail price goes higher, or does anyway. Example is Toro/Briggs and Stratton. Latest engine has a smaller air filter, and Toro touts no oil changes ever. You can tell this engine is lighter than the...

The dial moved the vanes at the bottom in or out for a more vigorous roll-over.

Possibly Dadoes. I guess I should have considered the guy who has the YouTube car reviews for classics. Curious cars. He's in Naples Florida. Watch a few videos and you'll see what I mean. He tends to be biased.

Both 1970. 800 series washer, close enough to a Lady.

Re; Consumers Union reports. I don't trust them. They rate LG refrigerators high on the list too. My neighbor says hers is junk. Flimsy shelves. Going back to 1986 and the Suzuki Samurai test. They were told to do whatever it took to make it roll over. Why, and funded by? Suzuki hoped to sell...

Still a VMW with a junk splutch gearcase.

They're all up there for the fifties and 60s. For the 1970s, to 1980, the garage door Lady Ks. If you also have a one of a thousand Sony KV 3000 R console TV with power remote tambour doors especially from 1980.

The console Chet posted above is similar, but missing the temp. selector dial. I like having one. It's also missing the cancel cycle signal/start button. I suppose a drum light is handy, but don't miss it. Have a well lit laundry area. Our old dryer had a window too. The exterior frame around it...

A 4.5 cubic ft. Samsung front load washer with a steam cycle is $750 plus pedestal optional. Good luck with ours since July 2019. Assembly is done in North Carolina.

Yes, model number WHD4815EW4. Side swing door. Console looks like the original Cabrio line with curves. Timer and a temperature knob and a start knob button.

Prank phone call too. Along with pizza orders, and party invitations. Who remembers the Bell At&T pipeline?

Correct sir. First Opel was absorbed, then PSA merged with FCA. Currently Fiat, Alpha Romeo, Lancia, Dodge charger, Durango, one Chrysler Pacifica, Ram truck, and Jeep. The Alpha Tonale is rebadged a Dodge Hornet. Chrysler aquierd the hornet name when they bought AMC in 1989 with Jeep. It was...

Unfortunately, PSA isn't in the US market. I don't know if they still sell in Canada. I've seen one driving around near the Ford Dearborn engineering/design centers.
