I always love the “only a real truck has an 8 foot bed” crowd.  This 6 1/2 has hauled plenty of 4x8 drywall without missing a beat. 

One thing I like about this movie is whomever did the musical score, and used “Gimmie Some Lovin” by the Spencer Davis Group. A perfect song for Cole’s intro to NASCAR.

The high pressure fuel pump went out my wife’s 2011 Mini Cooper S. I had it towed to the stealership and they told me that the part was $1200 plus labor. But, they said they’d do it for free if I did my other maintenance (all fluids changed and some other stuff) for $800. I said sure, since I thought I was saving some…

Where I live the most effective sign would be “POTHOLES THAT WILL BEND ALL 4 OF YOUR WHEELS-2 MILES AHEAD” 

I had a brand new (21 miles on the odometer) Wrangler as a rental (they had rented out the SUV I had reserved.) I drove it 400 miles, all highway. It was an absolute miserable piece of shit to drive. Even worse than the Dodge Journeys I’ve had in the past (didn’t think that was possible.) I can’t even imagine how…

Tin the leads! That’s how I learned how to solder. These connectors look interesting, but I’ll stick to the old school way. 

My dad had this on his ‘89 Mark VII. The code was “06537.” How on earth I remember this but will probably forget my anniversary is beyond me. 

84.5K for a brown Squarebody Chevy? I know it’s low mileage but wow. 

Everything but the Scotch Guard

It’s a shame because I think the BFG’s are the best looking RWL tire on older vehicles. But, the Cooper Cobra looks good as well and is about 50 bucks a tire cheaper. 

Haven’t gone that abrasive yet. But if all else fails...

That actually crossed my mind. I don’t have 800, but have 1000 which might not be abrasive enough. Thanks for the tip! 

No idea. These tires are a year old and have seen about 200 miles total. But so far I’ve had no luck getting the clean. I’ve given up for now, but will try the suggestions that others have made here! 

One of the first things I tried. I used it a looooong time ago on whitewalls. It worked great. But now, not so much. 

Nope. The lettering on these has been browinsh since I got them, no matter what I use to clean them. Really wish I had bought the Coopers instead. 

They were practically giving them away.

but I read so many complaints on various forums about the white lettering turning brown and bad-looking over a short period of time.

I know the term “LS swap” is used frequently, but I think this heap is a fine candidate for one. CP...er ND on this ride though. 

Sounds like the NRA was in on that action as well.
