Apparently Shylo has totally missed the point of the whole discussion.

When he makes the statement that he did, which indicates to me that he
hasn't read any of this thread, then makes the uninformed statement about
FWD which started this whole discussion in the first place, no, I can't let
it go.

Why bitch about the thread when he obviously hasn't read anything that
anyone has to say?

It's not that "I'm right", there are other experienced folks out here who
have found the same thing over the years. They have weighed in on this
thread both here and on the V8 list. And to make the blanket statement about
FWD is being rather uninformed, especially followed by "we all know
this"......no, we don't know this because it isn't true.

If FWD was so wonderful, why the move back to RWD and also AWD that
enthusiasts and car mag writers have been wanting for many years? FWD is a
cheap solution for cheap cars, and that's where it should have stayed.

you're right, man. even if nobody else thinks so.
