yes, regret purchasing food that don’t line up with religious superstitions...not sure how this is the Big purchase regrets in your life. lucky you i guess?

Agree 100%. I use a Fenix HL55 every day. The first few weeks at work people gave me crap about being a miner, and all the fun puns that go with that. But one by one they all saw the value and effectiveness of it. I recommend Fenix for both that headlamp and my pocket light, the PD35. Fantastic light, quality, and…

As a Florida Man, i want standard equiped vented seats, not heated. Both my vehicles have heat only...it is nice for those 3 cold weeks of winter we get, but for the rest of the year they stay off. More cars are offering vented, as an option, but I wish the options would be A) zero seat climate control or B) Heated…

That rear-engine mounted serpentine belt looks like a PITA to change.....

I feel ya. Even my somewhat harsh reply was a bit trollish - my 2.5 y/o daughter loves ‘helping’ me with house construction projects or playing with my tools from work. My 1 y/o son seems to go after the more brightly colored pink hand-me-down toys. I am loving and treat them equal to help development and…

If you seriously can’t comprehend the difference between common clothing during an era (or location, like a thawb) and a dress designed and intended to be worn by a little girl while she pretends to be a‘princess’, that is beyond sad; just another social justice warrior looking to chime in a fight. For reference and…

[be careful, you may be lynched for stating the obvious too]

Another voice of reason here my friend, I would do the same. I played with trucks, my sister played with dolls. My boy plays with trucks, my daughter plays with babydolls. I guess we are in the minority now. Crazy messed up world we live in. I see a 4 year old boy with long flowing hair past his shoulders and…

Hate to call BS on a...cool story bro, but somethings just don’t add up. Maybe it is just taking some creative liberties to your story but to recap: Your parking brake handle was hot enough to burn you, but they are wrapped in plastic and presumably fake leather. This told you something was probably overheating. Then…

A lot of people have hinted at it, but I drew a similarity between the interlock system of yesteryear and modern german cars. As a mechanic, I can’t tell you how many times i’ve smacked the A-pillar with my head: if you are unbuckled and open the door (to see how lined up you are with an alignment machine) the car…

haha figures. I [falsely, frustratingly] assumed a 2014 Sequoia would have all sorts of new tech features...but god Toyota is behind on the times on some cars. Sure, 50k got me leather power seats and a big truck, but not even memory seats or pushbutton/keyless entry

fun fact, speed limit there is 35:

Not to PooPoo on the company or the video....but jesus. A 100MPH test in a land yacht on a small residential road, complete with GPS showing the road name for any cop to look into?....risky risky my friend

A solution to both of these could be what I installed in my SUV - a viper remote start. You can keep the truck armed and locked, but have it start up and crank the A/C for stupid hot florida. If someone breaks a window and tries to drive off, unless the key is also in the ignition it would simply turn off the truck…

Indeed. Sometimes these things have a happy ending: This happened near me, just a few months after my wifes vehicle was stolen. I can only hope it was the same punks

In the county I live in, the FHP have a ‘no chase’ policy for this very reason. A few officers i know have gotten warning from their superiors for not shutting down their lights and slowing soon enough. Makes sense

Not to be insulting, but are there any taco-bell employees that can afford a $65k car? Most guys i see there look like they cant afford a 6k car....

Yes, because teen gamer dude only bought CoD because it had realistic looking humvees in it......

I love you David, but here is a mechanics view to ease some fears..or correct misconceptions for the not-so-mechanically savvy:

I see CLUN replied as well, but when i sold my Evo 9 after 2 years and 15k miles, I got back 28k of the 31k purchase price. 15-20% is a gross exaggeration today.
