I finally don’t need a battery widget!

Loosen the oil filter, then slip a cut off two liter bottle over it to remove it the rest of the way. The filter and all the oil that would have dripped down your arm gets collected by the bottle.

Police pickups have been in use as code enforcement for a long time.

Aerodynamics add variables that are undesirable to the desired measurements.

John Force interviews are epic though.

You must live in a different part of the state. All the roads here are snoozefests aside from Joplin and Brooks. I miss the Sierra Nevada foothills. Most all the roads were fun. I honestly feel like my driving skills peaked while there because since then it’s become progressively disengaged.

The only thing they seem to patrol for is red lights and speed. Every other idiotic and dangerous activity is considered normal.

But all the driving feels like just shuffling around, roads have oddly low speed limits, and banking on turns is frequently backwards. I’ve only found two remotely fun roads in two years.

No, the finest is when cars were ticketed in DC for parking in their driveway without a permit because within 40' of the road centerline is considered government property that must be maintained by the home owner.

It’s sad that this actually needs to be a law. Virginia could be such a great driving state but everyone seems to actively hate cars..

Can we start a petition to change his name to Tony Stark?

Bro should have leveled up his drive skills before going turbo .

I went to a test and tune night at sac raceway, first car out was a fairlane that did that, delayed the rest of the runs for a bit.

My 1991 Gran Prix shuddered on grades. The night before I took it in to have the transmission rebuilt for a cost of $2400 I opened the hood to take one last look. Paused, turned out the lights. I could still see the spark plug wires. Got a $50 set of wires, put them on the next day, shuddering was gone.

Yeah, over square.

One thing to note: the AAAA cells are usually reverse polarity. And this arrangement isn’t always used, sometimes they are flat cells. With lantern batteries sometimes they contain 4 standard D batteries. And sometimes they won’t. I’d post a couple pictures but I can’t get mobile kinja and Google pictures to play nice.

I paid $18k for my truck with carmax warranty after taxes and everything added in. My prior car I paid $7k out the door. The best car I ever owned I paid $22k out the door in 2001 for a brand new custom ordered truck. Drove it happily until the accident in 2014. My classic car was $2400. It’s called “buy what you…

It can’t be an utopia unless you can blindly walk across a street with your face in your phone and not be hit by a bus.

If you believed Alissa on Gizmodo, cars are responsible for 95% of the evil in this world and without them we would live in a fairy tale utopia where we could walk everywhere to get whatever we wanted.
