I'm in the exact same boat.
Dad was hard-headed and dead set in his ways, so some of his purchases were, well,,,,just dumb, weren't good for much and most kicked like a bank mule.
Lucky I had one of my brothers to shed a few on, but I have to give up a couple of mine that he wanted. It was a...
If something goes weird with your car for no apparent reason.....like the cruise control going out for no apparent reason, the check engine light coming on and the anti-skip light doing the same.... Do a You-Tube search on your model/make/ year car, before you run to an Auto Mech.

I was blessed with a couple summers at his home growing up, in my teenage years.
Henry was the next one behind Dad. Air Force Vet that did his time in Germany during the WW2 occupation, came home with a Fraulein beauty, named Frieda. Henry...
Regardless of how monumental the sacrifice our Dad's went out of their way to do in order to do the absolute Best for us.....sometimes my Uncles came through, when I needed to be a young man and not a son.
Allow me to introduce a couple.

Have any of you had this problem?
New, out of box, and too tight to disassemble & reassemble.
I trained with a M14, in the Corps, but I had to become Hercules just to disengage the trigger guard for dis-assembly and now I can't get the trigger housing to re-engage. It's just won't engage...
