Could not pay me enough to do either right now.

Have a brand-new vehicle I'm trusting less and less by the day, too. There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that the 'control' the "driver" has over any new vehicle is nothing more than an illusion. The ECU on this thing looks like a damned briefcase. Lol, why? What's it doing? Do I believe the push-button starter is going to kill the engine or the electronic e-brake would actually stop forward movement with the press of yet another button if the thing starts redlining at 90mph on the interstate? No, Sir, I do not.
I know I'm gonna feel stupid for asking. ECU please?

Been to the smoky mountains more times that I could count. Use to see the helicopter ride signs and always wondered who would take those. Scared the piss out of me.

Watching the golf tournament and Nance is making it sound like it is all about Tiger Woods because Woods idolized him. Who gives a ****? Woods has nothing to do with this and Nance needs to stop.

Its a live golf tournament with golf fans listening, have no problem with Nance taking the Tiger/golf angle - plenty of other outlets are covering the story, only so much an announcer can do and its not something you can ignore is the sports world.

Electronic(sometimes engine) Control Unit. It's the computer that runs your car. Could also be ECM, then there is TCM(trans), BCM(body) also.
gotcha . . . had someone explain to me a "safety system" on their new Dodge Ram the other day. Automatically throws the transmission back into park if a door is "ajar". I asked what if you need to back up to connect a trailer or something, drive with door open? He said it will let you do that. But that he left it in drive (on a muddy slope), got out to open a gate, got back in and it wouldn't move. Couldn't figure out what happened. Dealership explained it. Just seemed like a bunch of scenarios could occur, for how that "safety system" could cause some unwanted problems, including creating unsafe conditions.
