Re: GM to drop Quadrasteer option and Sliding Roof

 Another I told you so!

"GMC sliding roof slides away

"Envoy XUV didn't come close to sales predictions

"So much for hauling grandfather clocks. General Motors has decided to kill
the GMC Envoy XUV, an SUV with a power-operated sliding roof over the cargo
area. The roof enables the XUV to carry tall cargo, such as a grandfather
clock. That was touted in XUV advertising."

I guess the GM engineers didn't realize that one can lay grandfather clocks
on their backs to move them...moved mine a few times that way over the last
20+ years or so.

however, you can't do that with hot water heaters... FWIW :)­

Cold water heaters, on the other hand...!

(Why would you want to heat hot water? Most of us want to heat *cold*
water so as to *make* it hot.)

Seems to me a cold, water heater couldn't heat anything.

Now, I hear refridgerators don't like to lie on their sides. at least
don't plug 'em in until a few hours go by. it seems the fluid has to
re-position.

you can't fool all of the people , all of the time.

The oil has to drain back out of the compressor cylinders, or you'll smack
and destroy valves when the compressor powers on.
