I really want an 03 HD F150 but live in Northern Illinois. I assume these things are lousy in snow though right? I've heard rumors of a 4 X 4 HD being available. Anyone heard that?

Well I changed my Oil yesterday and today I smelled oil while driving. My dumbass forgot to put the Oil cap back on after I added a liitle Oil. The Hood Liner is soaked and a little of the engine compartment is wet. No real loss of Oil, still half way in between Min and Max but enough to get...

I tend to rest my foot on the clutch pedal when not pushing it in. I dont have a whole lot of knowledge on manual transmissions, just know how to drive them. Is it hard on the clutch in any way? It pushes in maybe a 1/2" to 3/4" real easy. No actaul pressure on the pedal. Thanks Steve

Well my wife is looking at a 2002 MG Mustang GT Vert to go along with my 2003 MG Cobra Vert and was out checking insurance rates. I figured the GT would be a little more but not this much. GT = $607.50, Cobra = $431.60 every six months. Damn kids driving up the rates on these GT's. I'm 31 so...

IF anyone in this god forsaken part of the country is an expert in changing pulleys and chips that could help me than that would be great too. Save me alot...

Happened a little to close to home yesterday. I think this is the perfect forum for this. Print this story out and put it in your car next time you want to go street racing. I know I am going to, because I am guilty of it in the past. Just be happy with what you drive. Look good in it. Sound...

Was behind what said was a SVT Supercrew F150 this morning. Is there such a thing? I never knew SVT built a 4-door Lightning. It had all the body lines of one but had the four full size doors. Very sharp. I have a 03 Cobra but I would really like one of those because I need to carry kids around...

Well just two days after getting the chrome rims on, it's time to put her away for the winter. It's going to be a long 4-5 Months. I will really appreciate her in the spring though. Pulled it in with exactly 3700 miles. I couldnt bare not being able to see her all winter while covered up with a...

I saw a 96-98 Cobra running around in the rain today. It was a nice green with tan interior and I felt sorry for it. So who drives theres in the rain?

Ok I ran on the Dyno tonight and got three pulls of 391, 388, AND 396 H.P. Torque numbers about 10-15 digits lower. The grapgh says SAE Corrected numbers. What does this mean? The guy at the Dyno shop said to take these numbers and divide by 18-20% to get crank numbers. Is this correct? If so...
