Everything goin at once
Man, my truck has had some bad luck this last couple of weeks. First my windshied cracks from pillar to pillar, then I blow my head gaskets and today my spedo got stuck at 95mph and wouldn't come back down for a couple of hours. It dropped about 10mph every hr and now it is stuck at about 10mph. At first it didn't move with changes in speed, now it moves but is 10mph off.........

You wouldn't believe how dangerous that is. My girlfriend is used to a 4 cyl. cavalier and when she got to drive my truck after I had all the stuff listed done, she was doing 65 in a 35(although it really should be faster it's practically a 4-lane highway)!!!! Then she had the gall to say that she didn't realize that she was doing that much. Unbelievable.
