Do you mean to imply that teams of unionized, sometimes sober, autoworkers taking hundreds of scraps of metal they fit into place manually by eyesight before welding together, with little robotic alignment involvement, that are flexible by nature and include a body-on-frame approach using soft springy rubber pucks as bushings that themselves can vary as to placement in an environment of 1970s-onwards gm quality aspirations had less than standardized body gaps?
Oh, the sarcasm!

Sounds like you’re feeling better ;)

Today is a better day.

Last night was rough, didn't sleep a wink. On average ive been in and out of the cancer center twice a week. Finally got a nap in though, and, had the energy to make up a batch of red king claws and golden king legs for mothers day. The sides I had to leave to others though.

They do say I need to stay positive. That was a positive outlook, wasn't it?

Here's another gem for you. LS engines = bad. EVs = worse. So, there's finally something I'd prefer an LS engine over having. (Or should I report that as a side effect, and that i appear to be losing touch with reality?) :unsure:

Yes I am implying. My gaps are bad even though I have tried to adjust during my off-frame. Doors sound like a bucket of loose parts inside, and I can go on and on. I love my Chevy.
