I just wondered if it was that way for all of them, or just for the Ford, or for the Ford and some other makes, etc...

I don't like to say that something is one way just because the same something somewhere else is that way... the second I say it, it usually turns around and turns out the other way. (If that made any sense to you.)

I did remember that post, though. I went back and read it before I posted that I'd go out and check on it tomorrow. (Today, now.)
