Why does it matter if it got axed? You can still get parts. There are too many people that say you wont be able to get parts for Pontiac cars when they don't know what is going on since they don't own a Pontiac. Several GM employees on GTO forums and G8 forums say you can still get parts for Oldsmobile when people start getting worried about the availability of parts for their Pontiacs. Worried about the value of the car well all cars lose value.

See the problem is not the engine. Its the sh!tty design of the slave cylinder. You are lucky for now that you don't have problems.

I can pull 19-20mpg highway if I drive really nice and that is with 4wd and 31" tires.

I used to offroad quite often. Not sissy **** either and now I just drive streets since I bought my quad to offroad with. I have gone through 3 slaves in 4 years.

well damn. been using a rubbing compound on the billions of scratches the truck accumulated from wheeling
she cleans up real good!!! most of the scratches you cant see anymore. and the deeper ones are only visibile at certain angles now.
like a mirror!
