I just got an 87 F-250 from a friend. The truck has sat for 4 years. What do I need to do to it before (1) attempting to start it and (2) driving it.
The tires are shot, and so is the battery, so those are obviouse things.

I think an airline captain or stewardess is best placed to explain the meaning of this request. Also, why to the lights have to be dimmed for take off, and landing.

Just curious, thanks

Remember all that talk about those sorts of luxury add-ons to the plane? So, is any airline seriously going through with those plans upon entry into service?

It has nothing to do with strength. I've seen some 5 foot nuthin's riding Road Kings. Plus some of the dudes aren't all that buff.

I lost or was stolen a national 15 day railpass before getting to use it at all. It's worth 450 USD but Amtrak refuses to refund anything of that. They won't even issue a new pass as a replacement and tell me that I have to buy another one.

This pass that can only be used by me (there is a name on it and you need to produce photo ID before boarding), so Amtrak is pocketing the money without delivering any service associated with that pass.

Does anyone know a way to get a refund for that, or succeeded in getting something back?

The car has a hard time starting seeming as if the battery is nearly dead. Once it does start, it runs fine but turn it off and try to start again, and it will barely start if at all. Anyone know why this is? Whats going on and what can we do?
