Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Knowledge is power helps build mutual respect and trust where fear, doubt, and mistrust once dominated. The language is coherent and the visuals are annotated, making these delineated procedures seem relatively intuitive.

New ford transmission uses a brand new expensive transmission fluid. It teaches you how to give the car basic service needs, how the engine and drivetrain work, and even some tips on how to buy a car properly.

Never a mistake to buy these books. My only complaint is that the kindle edition does not always display the images correctly.

Cons

This book appears to be a reprint of something written in the 1980s. The information in this book is laughable. Just be prepared to wade through the author's self-congratulatory and occasionally ill-informed thoughts.
