Default Too many dieing 94s...

Is it just me or is there a fair amount of 94 L27s that are making their ways into the crapper?!?!

Seems that there are a lot of 94s being parted out in the For Sale forum. Or, maybe it'* just me taking more notice because of all the issues I ran into with my 94 Olds 88.

Were there any significant changes between 93 and 94? 93 is said to be the best year for a 3800...but only one year later we see so many deaths?!?!

the ECC head, and the radio are different starting in 94 and CCR started in 94

93 had the digital EGR, not 94.
