An acquaintance of ours husband passed away last year. He was a diehard Ford guy and his wife is now ready to part ways his toys. They haven't ran in 6-9 months and I told my friend I would help get them running and give her advice on where to sell them and maybe even write up a description of...
As a child of the 80's there was 3 posters that always hung on my bedroom walls. Girls in thongs bent over cars, the Countach, and a 911 Turbo. Well I've had my fair share of girls in thongs, the Countach is still a distant dream but the 911 Turbo has become a reality, a Turbo S in fact.
I...
So in March I am flying into Houston to pick up a car I bought and drive it back to PA.
I want to go along the Gulf and Atlantic coasts on the way back and I'm looking for suggestions for places to stop over night.
You guys are always great for your varied opinions, your "must see's" and your...
I wanted to know if any of you have driven a 2021 Raptor and what you thought. How does it ride compared to a regular F-150. How do you like the new exhaust?
I'm thinking about ordering one to replace my '19 Platinum. I also have a '21 XLT for a work truck and in comparison to my '19 with with...
I told the wife I want to pack up my shit and get lost for 3 or 4 days. I just want to get out of the northeast, and traffic, and everything associated with both.
The vehicle, my 2014 Harley Davidson Ultra Limited.
I'm looking to backroad to nowhere and to see nothing. I plan on scooting out...
My wife and I are going to Myrtle Beach at the end of the month. We are staying at a friends place in Surfside Beach while they aren't there. We've never been down that way before and wanted to ask what some of you that have been there recommend or think is interesting.
Neither one of us are...
I recently bought a 911 and shockingly it has an almost perfect full leather interior. The dashes in these cars are susceptible to drying and having the leather separate especially around the corners.
1.What is the best product and/or technique to maintain the leather,
2. Also what is the best...
I sold my car to an FL resident and the car is still in my garage waiting on shipping.
The person tried registering it and FL DMV told them they need a vin check performed by a cop and notarized. I'm in PA and the nearest cop shop is a half an hour away and I am booked 24/7 for the next few...
I am happy to report I got a new company vehicle this week. My 2015 Transit Connect has been passed on to another employee after 133k mostly trouble free miles.
We had been talking about getting a new truck due to my TC getting up in the miles and my role within the company has evolved to the...
I was inquiring about a used car that is located in the Phoenix area and the dealer said if I pick it up in person I have to pay a 2.75% AZ sales tax. If I have it shipped I don't have to pay it.
I told him I thought he was wrong and to double check his information. He did and insisted I had to...
I've been thinking about moving on from my car and trying something else out. The problem is the car is modded so it's not an easy sell.
It's held relatively good value if it were stock, and I've gotten some respectable offers using the instant offer on KBB. But none of the dealers want a modded...
After having a 600 lb steel beam dropped on me and destroying my back I gave up on riding forever. Well that and the amount of idiots on the road also played a part.
But recently my son has been talking about learning how to ride and it reignited the desire to get back on 2 wheels.
I...
My wife has a sizable 401k through her work. Is there a way to convert it to something safe for a period of time than perhaps convert it back? Are there fees involved in this,etc?
I'd like to pull it now then hold it until say early next year.
It took 20 years to build and I'd hate to lose it...
I know this is usually Sid's thing but I was thinking of a simpler time and remembered the 1994 Mark VIII my dad traded his 1992 SHO on. It was green like 50% of the Mark VIII's were back then. And it was pretty far ahead of its time. IMO it was Lincoln's last really good, uniquely Lincoln car...
I'm looking for a decent battery tender for my Mustang as I don't drive it enough to keep it charged. I have an ancient battery charger I bought 20 years ago at ACE hardware but half the switches don't work and it's not something I want to leave plugged in 24/7.
Also I want a new battery...
I just checked the market and seen it is down 900 points. They say it is due to fears of the Corona virus. What do you guys say, are we all doomed or is it time to buy on the dip. I'm thinking of picking up Apple.
That includes tuners, hand helds, So called off road pipes, etc.

I know many of you are generous people and have charities you like to support. I didn't start this thread to virtue signal but to see what charities you all donate to and why.
At the end of the year I donate a portion of my bonus to my favorite charities and still have about $250 to give...

I don't have paypal or want paypal so cash in person or USPS...
Well in a few days we will be taking off North as far away from people as we can get. The plan is to take the new F150 up from Pennsylvania to Montreal, then to Baie-Comeau, then Route 389 to Labrador City, Happy Valley, Blanc-Sabon, to New Foundland to see where the Vikings landed. Then off to...
I have a few questions in regards to the brake booster & PCV.
1. Can I eliminate this and plug the intake and blower ports and retain my filters?
Question #2. I need to hack up my stock hose to get this aspirator thing to work so I can have power brakes.
I'm reading through VMP's Gen2R...
