    Cooler recommendations please

    Agreed, Pelican is top shelf quality and excellent ice retention. I have two different sizes and they are heavy and overbuilt but perform very well.

    Is the 03-04 Cobra the Beast it was 7-10+ Years Ago?

    The comparison is a bit like a vintage Arnold or Frank Zane vs the mass monsters of today. Yes, the modern body builders and high HP cars pack a lot more muscle and tech. There is a natural progression where at some point however more is not always better. We all like more power to a point...

    Help me pick a service vehicle

    I like the used U-Haul idea. You don't need to tie yourself into huge payments where you end up reducing your hard earned profit to pay for your rig. You're going to probably put a ton of miles on a service vehicle anyway so get something that is already depreciated. And if it needs repair...

    I'm looking at adding some N/A power to a '92 notch. It currently has 3.73 gears, short shifter, and lowered ~2" with good suspension stuff and a strut tower brace up front. I'll eventually go with headers, some kind of high flow cat X/H pipe, and whatever flavor of muffler. I want to...

    The next best NXT

    When Meguiar's NXT came out a couple years ago I thought it was pretty good, but now I guess I'm looking for something a little smoother to the touch and longer lasting. Is this asking too much? Or should I just break down and switch to Zaino and be done with it?

    Convert '92 AOD to T5 or sell and start over?

    I've got a very stock '92 Notch AOD w/ 47k and in nice shape. I really miss rowing my own gears, but this car is in pretty nice shape with low miles. Would it make more sense to convert this car to a T5 or sell it and look for a 5 speed Fox? More than likely I'd like to end up with a...
