The racers would need need lasers that shoot straight up and the ability to jump, those moon craters can sneak up on you.

If I put E85 in my autonomous car who gets the DUI?

My dad is a farmer. He typically buys a used truck and drives it into the ground, and the less options he can get the better “less stuff to go wrong”. His 91 F250 died sometime around 08 or 09 with just shy of 300k miles on the tired 5.8L. In looking for a new truck I found tons of clean low mile F-250’s with 4wd,…

I like to think $0.10/mile is my budget for a car (excluding fuel/insurance).

Is there a matching Teatro for Nitez?

You don’t want to see what happens when gasoline and spray-tan mix, it’s somewhere between 3 Mile Island and Fukushima. The law is there for our safety.

We’ve got an old Ford skid steer loader that uses the same V4. It is also slow and usually broken.

Tough part about a midnight clutch job is getting the flywheel resurfaced, no machine shops open that late around here.

Couple of tires, a battery charge, dented model A grill shell, and a cow skull on the dash and it’s ready for cruise night.

For someone starting out or on a budget the Harbor Freight one has held up just fine. FOD isn’t a huge concern when trying to knock a rusty brake rotor off your winter beater Corolla.

Yes, the manual impact drivers are great for situations like a stuck phillips head screw in a brake rotor (many import cars have these). I don’t use mine very often, but it’s a lifesaver in the situations where you need it.

I’m just curious what strange link got you from Consumer Reports to Jalopnik?

I imagine the family picture has everyone wearing khaki’s and matching sweaters.

Mopar or no-car for me

The problem with using Anti-seize on wheel lugs is that it acts as a lubricant and makes it easy to over-tighten the lug nuts and damage the wheel studs. Even here in the rustbelt I don’t come across too many stuck lugnuts so I don’t use it on them.

The basics are important, with a good set of wrenches, sockets screwdrivers and pliers there isn’t much you can’t fix.

The battery powered ones are pretty pricey, and for a pneumatic one you’ll need a compressor. Great to have, no doubt but I was wrenching on cars for a few years before I had one.

I’ve got a blue 1971 Trail 70 I use as a pit bike, one of these Grom Scramblers would be awesome.

Around me I expect to see these in the places I normally Cayenne’s, Model S’s etc. So pretty much parked in anywhere in town. The trophy wive’s I expect to drive them they would rather squeeze into the second space in the lot than have to walk 50 feet further to Yoga class.
