Nah, you would bruise a lot of the meat. The best strike is a front fender to the deer’s head.

I’ve cleaned other peoples deer strikes. I pretty much always call it in. The police already know who I am and I don’t want to give them any more reason to look at me.

You’re complaining about living in a food infested area. I don’t recommend hunting them with a car, but if the strike is on the head and you clean it fast enough there is no problem with the meat.

I never thought about it before, but I have the means to make this happen.

I no longer have it, but

Purolator pretty much invented the oil filter. You probably wont ever see any ads on TV, but they are very well known in most shops. I’ve been a mechanic in California (hated it), a couple places on the east coast, Texas, and the midwest. You can usually find the filter you want if you go to enough stores, but there…

Yea, but how many miles she have on her?

My Gramps was once rear ended by a tractor trailer. He was stopped, waiting to make a turn, and was hit by the truck doing 60 mph. He walked away from it, and the guy with the wrecker said the reason was my Gramps had 2 full size spares, 2 loose tires, and a couple milk crates with various fluids in the trunk of that…

Too Many Cooks does not even get an honorable mention?

So, if Nash stayed in business we would have flying cars?

I think he means using the sliding design instead of a traditional throttle plate.

I’d say trash it. Those quad 4s are ticking time bombs anyway. I’d never trust one with more than 80k miles further than I care to walk.

What he’s doing seems perfectly normal to me. I don’t see anything wrong with it. He does not need an intervention. This is fine. Everything is fine.

I actually have 3, 1 that ran last time I fucked with it a number of years ago, 1 mostly complete, and 1 parts truck. I bought a surplus multi-fuel engine with the intent on having 2 running trucks, but life happens and I have about 6 other major projects.

I’m half tempted to offer him a free ran-when-parked M135. Partly to laugh as he figures out how to move it, partly to get it out of my hair, and partly to make sure it does not end up as scrap. I’m not planning on dying, btw, I just haven’t done anything with it in years, and if something did happen to me, my wife…

I think with a minor culture change, we could weed out the people who do burnouts leaving and event, discourage the people who want to attend just to show off their burnout skills, and attract new people to the Cars and Coffee scene.

Its lower than you might think. Not as low as a passenger car, sure, but there is a lot of weight on the lower half.

The USMC is very small. Makes for a very small budget. When you take out all the big ticket items like aircraft and ammunition there is not a whole lot left. The USMC has bought or received a lot of “hand-me-down” equipment from the Army and the Navy.

I like to think I’m not nasty, but I’m a white person that cant cook. We had a mandatory potluck at work one year. Some team building bullshit. I told them they didn’t want me bringing in food. They insisted.

Honestly, I’d rather have this than what happened to me. I took my camaro to the local dealer for a random misfire. I had to hound them about it every week or so because they never called me back. It was always “ getting looked at” or “next in line”. Eventually, they called me back, saying that they had no idea what…
