Dear Amazon.com Customer,
As someone who has purchased or rated books by Department of Defense, you might like to know that TM 9-1803A Engine and Engine Accessories, Willys Overland Model MB and Ford Model GPW ¼ Ton 4×4 Technical Manual
is now available. You can order yours for just $15.95.






Similarities tend to break down with books that aren’t ordered too often…
Laugh it up now, sure. But when the engine in your Ford Model GPW ¼ Ton 4×4 breaks down, and you don’t know how to fix it, you’ re going to look quite the fool indeed.
indeed.
A young fellow named Grizzard, one of the members of my squad in basic training, was assigned to “wheeled vehicle mechanic training” at Fort Leonard Wood. I’ll bet Griz spent many hours pouring over that literary gem.
A 1/4 Ton 4X4 Technical Manual sounds . . . formidable.
I’d recommend the abridged version.
I’ve bought several Red Sox-related things from Amazon. Now I get semi-regular emails from them telling me I might like books about the Yankees.
The similarity is apparent to everyone in the world not a Yankee or Red Sox fan.
You might have a point if Amazon was trying to get me to buy, say, a general baseball book. But a person who buys Red Sox merchandise exclusively is NEVER going to want a book or DVD or about the Yankees.
It’s like, I don’t know, trying to advertise an Ann Coulter book to readers of a liberal blog.
Hey, you gotta have something to burn in effigy.
And while reading these comments, I notice a banner on (of course) the right side of the screen telling me, “Ann Coulter – Free! Be among the first to read Ann column every week. Click here!”
I’ll pass, even while enjoying how a post on LG&M about ad generation fails recommends Ann Coulter.
Amazing how a picture on websites emits a “skanky” smell
I’d have thought Amazon’s records would have told them you already bought several copies for yourself and for close friends, and so don’t need to be told about the book.
I WISH I had and old Willys Jeep to repair. Actually almost bought a mid-60′s one recently, but didn’t have the time to devote to it.
