You mean the Ford equivalent to these factory, no-VIN, race cars for the public?

And then there’s drag tire that start off small and grow in circumference with speed, giving the best of both situations - shorter for initial acceleration, taller as speed builds to keep from hitting red line\limiter before going through the traps.

We have a similar situation, except our hazards aren’t civilians, it’s local law enforcement that go past the house so fast, if it wasn’t for the height difference of the lights, you wouldn’t be sure if it was a Charger or RAM that just blew by. What’s more frightening than pulling out the the driveway is this below…

You do know that most illegal weapons don’t come in across the borders but are stolen from peoples’ homes, businesses, police, and gun stores right here in the US? As in guns that are actually legal until stolen from people who can’t care enough to keep a dangerous, deadly device safe? This is according to the ATF,…

THIS!!! YES!!! Thank you! And cutting saturated fat but leaving in the processed grains. :(

Yup, I live a short spell south of Rangley, ME. In my area, Foresters outnumber Outbacks, my guess is the combination of even better utility and price are a factor, and a lot of them are still on the road. Outside of full-sized American 4x4 trucks and XJs in every driveway, Subarus are the vehicle of choice for good…

Autoweek says it is 5.7" or about 3" less than the Outback. Unlike the former VT resident who replied, I’m a lifetime northern Maine and NH resident, I’ve seen Subies take advantage of their ground clearance many times. There’s a reason the tuner look hasn’t taken off in my area... 8-12" frost heaves 6-7 months out of…

Don’t laugh, but one of these...

When I worked for a Cadillac dealer, we called them “Cavillacs.” We also called them many other names. None of them were complementary.

I probably should be ashamed to admit this, but I had 4 gen 1 Cavaliers back in the late 80s\early 90s. Yes, definitely “meh” cars, but as a transportation appliance, they did the job. Not bad cars. Not good cars. Not even fair cars. The were just a means to get from point A to B without dealing with the weather. The…

I believe the GM U-vans (Lumina APV, Transport) sold outside of the US had a Quad4\5-speed option.
Another rabbit hole to go down. You are welcome...

Thanks for the reminder, I should have. Enjoy the rest of your day. 

Likewise. I saw it my younger years working behind the counter (not only auto parts but other retails jobs).
“I need <insert item here>“
“Ok, what is it going in”
“My car.”
“What type of car?”
“Blue? Maybe green.”
“Who makes your car?”
“No one, it was made when I got it. Yup, it’s definitely blue.”
Eh, you’ve been there, you…

Or, stay with me on this one, the customer could have been up front about the situation and worked with the poor guy trying to make a living and feed himself. How hard would it have been to give a little detail... unless the customer was clueless to what he had. In that case, 1) he should have said that and 2)…

Like the others posted, this strikes me as odd. When I remote start my car, the doors lock first. If I unlock the doors, it shuts off in 15 seconds if I don’t put it in gear or step on the brake. I have to ask though, why taxes would go up for officers doing their job during their shift? Since they aren’t out there…

Miser, which surprisingly wasn’t short for “misery.” Damn good truck. Leaning tower of power backed by 4sp OD.

I was thinking a circa-2004 Nokia flip...

Hard to tell, that would assume they keep the same number of approvals per year. I suspect in the current economy the number of applicants and approvals has increase, not decreased. Though, I also suspect the terms of 36 & 48 months are on the low end, not the median. No hard data on that, but having some knowledge of…

Correct, he’s just trying to make it being a shithole legitimate.
