It’s also rapidly approaching the age where all the plastic and rubber parts start failing and it needs an entirely new suspension and basically every engine bay hose, tube, and gasket. The valve cover gasket already went, so it’s definitely begun. I’ve got an E46 in my garage I’ve owned since it was only five years

The Internet says the window sticker on this would have priced it at 55k MSRP when new. Let’s say it’s insanely loaded and that’s actually 70k. 35k would mean half of new. But at 85k miles and 12 years of use, no matter how pampered, you’re getting into the part of its lifecycle where it costs a fair amount of money

A jet airplane normally has a HELL of a good heat source onboard - three turbofan engines producing seriously hot bleed air in this case. They are not all that well insulated, there simply isn’t room or weight allowance for it. 

I mean, it’s cool I guess, but you can buy a brand-new double-wide mobile home for $100,000. And it would have, you know, house things. Like a toilet. And a real shower.

Damn. I hope she recovers enough to enjoy early retirement. If ANYONE deserves it, it’s this woman. 

Great truck.

GIANT TRUCKS 100%, they make it almost terrifying to back out of a parking spot because you need to get about70% of your car in the lane before you can even see anyone coming.  Also narrow parking spots.  I don’t have a huge vehicle, though it is a full sized sedan, but when you have to swing all the way to the

Okay truck, with lots of miles — 269,000 miles is a lot of miles, even for a Toyota — for way too much money. No Dice.

It’s clean, but nowhere near $9500 worth of clean. No Dice.

I owned and operated a car restoration/repair shop, and one of the marques we specialized in was Rolls-Royce. While I usually owned the older versions, and I’m certainly not wealthy, 25 years ago the vast majority of Americans thought that all Rolls-Royce vehicles cost $100,000 and up, even used ones. In all the years

Great Googly-Moogly! Those hotter than red hot engine components that close to a propane canister ?! Nope, nope, nope...

They call Hulcher, R.J. Corman, etc and they will work 24/7 and probably have at least one track back running by now. The really messed up cars will probably be scrapped on site, and they will drag the locos away, fix the track, put the locos back on with a pair of cranes, if they are in decent enough shape to tow,

When I had my antique car restoration shop and began a long-term restoration of an expensive car, I would have the car’s owner set up a specific bank account for us to draw from. We would send an invoice for recent work, and 15 days later deduct the invoice amount from the account. If the account ever fell below a

You call Hulcher, who brings their cranes. They drag everything off to the side while everything that stayed on the rails is taken away from the rear of the train. Company labor repairs the tracks. Locomotives are expensive, so heavy duty flat cars are brought in to take them to the shop for evaluation. Frame damage

You mean one sick day

Those guys only just got sick days.  I don't perceive their safety as being any kind of priority for their employers.

The Chevette body/chassis is weak and dropping in an LS without reinforcing the entire structure will turn the body/chassis into a pretzle.
