Ah, I remember that show. It was mandatory viewing along with CHips and before them, ADAM-12. If you catch them today the acting was pretty stiff. I expected you were going to make a Tesla fire joke.

So in LA a building that looks to be around 40 years old and the events surrounding it that happened only around 40 years ago are considered to be "historic" and of course have a TV tie-in. Just kidding...you are of course correct and that was a revolutionary change and it makes a ton of sense to do it that way. I did not think you were going to make a Tesla/fire joke, but I admit I am wondering what ever happened to the sounds-like-tranny-or-final-drive ominous noise situation - ? Frequently in your LT posts you guys will relate a situation that seems to us to be pretty critical-sounding and reason to get the car in ASAP...and then we won't hear a thing about it for weeks, or forever. And in the meantime we see other posts with you folks blithely driving the car around, etc. Out there in movie-and-TV-land, there is a concept called "continuity" - whole departments in video production and post-production houses are tasked with ensuring that things that happen in movies and TV programs are edited and staged, lighted, set-dressed, etc. so things happen in the sequence they're supposed to happen so that it all looks and seems natural to viewers. Maybe Edmunds could work on its continuity - ?
