Can't help but laugh as I just seen it again in this
forum and I have done it myself heaps also.
If you accidently use the SHIFT key when typing 4WD you get $WD.
I think its very relevant as 4WD sometimes often means big $ for accessories, repairs etc ............ ;-)

LOL you've stumbled on the meaning of life Pete. Stuff 42 that was only a temporary fixation.

Onya Gramps ;love your style.
Tell me, (no, don't), were you a diplomat in a former life?
And if so, what are you doing here, among us plebs?

PeteS, at least when you empty the Wife's purse on $WD stuff, it often involves a meaningful trade,(as in something of substance.) Try the same stunt at a Chandlery, and a rather small brown paper bag is all you sneak out with.
(Admittedly, Spectra (?) has a foot in both camps).
We'll suffer it for as long as we're allowed to, I guess. Sigh. Jeff.

I have often felt that this particular typo was a "Freudian slip".
