So... the TRS company Jet with stripper pole isn't in the benefit package any longer?
Who started that rumor?

We keep trying to fit one but we just don't have room for the pole.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.

Wow. Designed especially for the narrow runways at off-road parks.

This is the company jet. It’s all the budget will allow.

We own an airport at my full time job... The “company jet” is always welcome there.

Stay away from the ‘02-04 Nissan 2.5l. Instead of using an EGR valve, they would use the VVT to hang the exhaust valves open longer on deceleration, pulling in exhaust gas. The cats were know issues, failing at about 70k miles. (At least on the Altima and Sentra.) The cat was built into the exhaust manifold... when the cat failed, the “EGR system” would pull in pieces of the cat and destroy the cylinder walls. You could go from a great engine to smoking like a freight train in 10 miles!

Only if you use a left handed smoke shifter that runs counter clockwise.

To send it or not to send it, that is the question.

No... I just have a deep hatred for the 02 Nissan Altima my wife had and use any excuse to badmouth the piss-poor design that Nissan wouldn’t stand behind!
