Not a problem at all, Chad. Glad to help - and you're helping us by putting good mileage on our parts!

The clutch you'll be driving on will hopefully be the future of light-duty diesel truck clutches.

But it's the least I could do for a fellow Honda-Tech'er!

So now it's on again? Sorry man you're too late. I decided to switch to drag racing. I spent all of yesterday drag racing against Tommy Kendall.

What's your car do in the 1320?

This has got to be one of the most unorthodox ploys for sponsorship that I've yet heard of, let alone seen work.

Scott, who thinks Chad's marketing skillz are not to be misunderstimated.

Nah, not at all. Chad might best represent the 90th Percentile driver we clutch manufacturers have to design for.

Just in case he breaks it tho, we have a backup for him:

How did that bumper pass QC? Oh ya, that must be GM's new build quality program called: "Good Enough". It's either that, or some fat *** stood on the bumper

Seriously though, congrats on the loaner, and a huge to allenp and LuK USA.

LOL! Good eye John, I was wondering if anyone would notice. This truck has some miles on it, and someone managed to give it a bit of a "love tap." It was "repaired" by chaining it to a post and backing up about a foot!

Otherwise, in all honesty, it's a good vehicle. I wouldn't send our Chad out west in a chitbox.
