Brought this up months ago. Not only neon, but palladium which Russia is 45% of the worlds source. this problem is not only bad, but is slated to get much worse. Chips will be allocated by the chip makers ….not by automakers. Much more critical systems will get higher priority over the needed chips such as cell phones, medical, and aerospace and defense. Sorry but cars and Xbox‘s aren’t as important…..
most likely soon they will use recycled ECU's from older cars/trucks

The "funny" part about my situation is I put a bright red GASOLINE sticker on the fuel tank so somebody wouldn't accidentally put diesel into this truck because it's the only one out of 8 flatbeds we own that isn't diesel...should've known better

I grew up on a dairy farm, you must have a solid 12g, 30-30 or 45-70 around. The engine sabotage means they come back at a time of their choosing. I would not go that route.

let me clarify, the sound, in the dark, of a shotgun or lever action tends to get peoples attention in my experience. I have been in situations where “good guys” froze at the rack of an 870.
