Two interesting developments recently discussed in this thread:

#1 My hesitation to crawl under my jacked up car to install an EBH was strengthened today when I opened the local newspaper. A guy the next town under died yesterday while working on his jacked up Jaguar...crushed by the car and died. While I would take every precaution before climbing under the car I'm not experienced with these things and can do without it...working on hiring a more experienced friend to assist with the operation after I get the EBH delivered.

Story link is below...from the pic in the paper the rear wheels were off...a story I didn't need to see when thinking about trying to install the EBH on my own.

#2 I stopped by my Toyota dealer today to try and pitch them on promoting my Super Commuter Driving Instruction to their customers. The sales guy I had a good relationship with NO LONGER WORKS THERE! Rats, on to plan B!
