    After going all OCD while shopping and comparing prices, there was no way I would vote for crack pipe. The price is definitely out of my budget, but not unfair in my opinion.

    One of the comments from those icky crack-pipers caught my attention, "I can only imagine what sort of new creaks and rattles have cropped up in the years since."

    The day I bought my VX, I was driving from Dallas to OK City when it hit me, "Where are the squeaks and rattles?" There was a big bang when I ran over the really big bumps in the road and I suspected that was the back seat. In anticipation of transporting my new tires home tomorrow, I removed the back seat a little while ago. Yep, the Big Bang was gone. There was still a slight rattle when going over the same big bumps and that was fixed by putting some cheap gasket material between the spare tire cover and the rear hatch.

    ZERO squeaks and rattles in a 9-year-old vehicle with 120k miles so I say "UP YOURS, Crack-pipers!"

    (Wish I could say the same thing about my 2-year-old Ford.)

    I experienced the same thing. I put a subwoofer in the rear door, no rattles, not even the license plate. That blows my mind. My 08 Expy rattled quite a bit. Now, having said that, after wheeling for the last year or so, the rear interior plastic started creaking and squeaking. Part of the reason I removed that stuff.

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.
