  • So your plan to fix capitalism is to do nothing?

    How exactly does preventing the working class technicians from working fix capitalism?

    Yes it is you with a poor grasp of what this software is for.

    Ok? I know what techs and service writers use CDK for, I was one for many years. I used CDK and ERA/Reynolds.

    Hint: if it’s not for selling cars then how does it affect poor people the most?

    By preventing techs from working and service writers from writing, they can’t even order parts to fix cars. And it’s not just dealerships that use this software, that’s a pretty ignorant and classist assumption to make about a huge segment of the working class population.

    Despite your insane ramblings you’ve yet to explain how so I’m waiting to hear whatever excuse you pull from your ass.

    Ok.

    Watch out entire industry that’s been operating for more than a century, Dark Arc’s dad is an engineer and he has correctly interpreted the facts you can’t even seem to grasp.

    Quick, now do perpetual motion! Those simpletons have barely even tried.

    Not that this will mean anything to you, but this feels a lot like when someone says “why don’t we just run lean so we save fuel?”.

    Yes, which is why the recommendation is to keep your hand on the handle while pumping or touch a metal part of your car prior to returning to the pump, and don’t get back into a car.

    I have a real life degree in automotive technology and engineering, and you saw a Mythbusters episode.

    We can keep doing this forever if you like, but you’re still very poorly informed on how safety is engineered into your vehicle fuel system and the mechanisms that support it.

    Here is some reading to help you, API recommended fuel procedures (if you’re not familiar with the API just read any gas pump or bottle of oil until you are): https://www.api.org/oil-and-natural-gas/consumer-information/consumer-resources/staying-safe-pump

    Most important, motorists should not get back into their vehicles during refueling. It may be a temptation to get back in the car for any number of reasons. But the average fill-up takes only two minutes, and staying outside the vehicle will greatly minimize the likelihood of any build-up of static electricity that could be discharged at the nozzle.
