CALLING ALL GEARHEADS

LATELY ALL THE RAGE IN THE NEWS IS THE USE OF THE FLAT PLANE CRANK. WHAT IS IT AND WHY IS IT? HERE'S THE BEST EXPLANATION I CAN GIVE.

CRANKSHAFTS HAVE THE CONNECTING RODS ON WHAT IS CALLED THE BIG END AND AT THE OTHER END IS THE PISTON. THE CRANK OS ROUND AND DIVIDED, NATURALLY, INTO 360 DEGREES AROUND THE CIRCLE. THIS IS HOW THERE ARE A FEW MOTOR CONFIGURATIONS THAT MIGHT SEEM ODD, LIKE A 3 CYLINDER MOTOR. IF YOU CAN DIVIDE 360 BY A NUMBER EVENLY, VOILA, YOU HAVE A MOTOR. 3 CYLINDERS DIVIDES INTO 360 EVENLY SO EACH CYLINDER IS SPACED 120 DEGREES APART. A 5 CYLINDER IS SPACED 72 DEGREES APART. THE LIST GOES ON. WITH A ROUND CRANK, EVERY FULL TURN ROTATES THE CYLINDERS ONCE, EACH INDIVIDUALLY, SO THAT IN A V8 ENGINE, ONE SPIN OF THE CRANK MAKES FOR 8 MOVES. WHEW! THAT'S A LOT OF ENERGY!

A FLAT PLANE CRANK IS AN ENERGY SAVER! ONE SPIN ONLY MOVES ONE WHOLE BANK (THET IS LEFT OR RIGHT SIDE) ONLY ONCE PER SIDE. ALL 4 PISTONS ON ONE SIDE MOVE UP, THE, 180 DEGREES LATER, THE WHOLE OTHER SIDE GOES UP. THE FIRING ORDER IS A TAD DIFFERENT THAN IN A ROUND CRANK, HOWEVER, WITH ONLY 2 MOTIONS PER SPIN, WAY LESS ENERGY IS NEEDED TO TURN THAT MOTOR. TO GO ALONG WITH THE ENERGY SAVINGS, THE MOTOR CAN NOW SPIN, OR REV, HIGHER AS THERE ARE FARLESS MOTIONS TO BE DONE. FORMULA ONE CARS SPIN, OR REV, AS HIGH AS 18000 RPMS BECAUSE OF THIS FLAT CRANK.

SO THERE IT IS, THE ALMIGHT FLAT PLANE CRANK!

EVER RISING USED TRUCK PRICES

DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU LOOK, REPORTS ALL POINT TO PRICES RISING AT LEAST 30% OVER THE LAST 5 YEARS. SHOULD THIS ALL BE WRITTEN OFF TO THE CHIP SHORTAGE? HARDLY THE ANSWER. LONG BEFORE SUPPLY CHAIN SHORTAGES HAVE TAKEN EFFECT, TRUCKS HAVE BEEN ON THE RISE. THE POPULARITY OF THEM IS MORE THAN EVIDENT BY WAY OF FORD MOTOR DROPPING ALL CARS, SAVE FOR MUSTANGS, TO JUST BUILDING TRUCKS AND SUVS.

IF I WERE TO POINT TO ONE TREND THAT FUELED THIS INCREASE, HERE'S MY 2 CENTS. HERE ON THE LOT, WE KEEP A GOOD SUPPLY OF TRUCKS – 12 TO 15 AT ALL TIMES. WHAT WE NOTICE IS THAT MOST, AND I MEAN MOST, HAVE NEVER SEEN A DAYS WORK IN IT'S LIFE MORE AND MORE THEY COME EQUIPT WITH INFOTAINMENT, ENTERTAINMENT, LANE CHANGE ASSIST, CAMERAS, IN GENERAL ALL THE THINGS THAT WAS ONCE ONLY FOUND ON LUXURY CARS. THIS POINTS OUT TO ME
1) THE FAMILY TRUCK, ESPECIALL IN THE 4 DOOR VERSION, HAS REPLACED THE FAMILY CAR. IT HAS DONE THIS, IN PART, AS BUYERS STILL LONG FOR A SUBSTANTIAL VEHICLE UNDER THEIR BUTT AS OPPOSED TO WHAT IS NOW A SHRUNKEN VERSION OF A MID SIZE OR FULL SIZE AUTOMOBILE.
2) AS YOU SEE MORE TRUCKS BEING USED PRIMARILY AS “GROCERY GETTERS” AND CHILD TRANSPORTERS, YOU WILL SEE THE MANUFACTURERS LOADING THEM UP WITH EVERY OPTION TO MAKE LIFE WONDERFUL IN YOUR NEW TRUCK. TECHNOLOGY COSTS MONEY AND THIS HAS FUELED A DRAMATIC RISE AS WELL.
I DON'T SEE THIS INCREASE SLOWING DOWN IN THE NEAR FUTURE, SO A WORD TO THE WISE – THE BEST TIME TO BUY IS NOW! IT'S NOT GOING TO GET ANY CHEAPER.
