You still might consider an Optima, Robert. I have one of the yellow ones in the Turq car. Tough battery.
I am going to get the ruby registered next year as a semi-survivor. That is if I can keep it running.

Updated my Signature what do you think.

I feel your pain. I've been fighting the dreaded "throttle plate sticking" issue for about two weeks. Finally have it band-aided for now with lithium grease. I'll R&R over the Winter unless it annoys me before then.

Its not bad keeping them running it took me less than two hours to change out the U-Joints and Half shaft, prep and vaccum seal the additional shaft. It just seems like they always break at the most un-opportune times with every idiot on Fleabay thinking he has struck gold.

I've grown to accept that the car toys will always be prone to tinkering. Either preventive or as needed. It's nice to have the good ole' Cobalt as my reliable daily driver. LOL The toys can set until I feel like tinkering.
