Dear Car Friends,

I learned today that car wiring since the 2000's is made from soy oil versus
the common PVC insulation.

The main point is that rodents LOVE the soy oil based wiring insulation!

I just saw the damage done to an Excursion like ours in just two days by
rodents.

Several hundred dollars worth!  It is a very common repair for ALL
vehicles made after 2000.

Watch where you park your vehicle and place traps if storing or not using!

Best wishes and beware,

Merry Christmaz!
Danny
