A John Deere 4020 tractor. Since it was the biggest and “newest” one we had (also a pair of 4010 in diesel and propane, plus a couple old M&M’s just used for fuel tenders) as well as the only one with a cab and sometimes functional A/C we had to keep it working so a cracked head was patched with JB Weld and roughly…

Like the S class clown face

My dad owned a Buy-Here Pay-Here car lot in central Florida from the early 80s up until around 2011. So sketchy was EVERYWHERE. I could go on and on but one sticks out.

This is fantastic. I used to work in Maytag Engineering testing refrigerators and components. Maytag only exists as a name belonging to Whirlpool now. In the 80's and early 90's we built the Maytag of refrigerators. You could buy one and be comfortable knowing they would last 30 years or more. This GE is the same way.…

Forget winter beater duty ... throw a smaller pulley on that blower, free up the exhaust and toss a stout computer tune on that puppy, then smoke some sleeping Mustang pilots ... bringing up the power windows on the way out.

Pickup trucks are being used as everyday transportation so they should meet the exact same standards for fuel efficiency as other passenger vehicles. The government has created incentives for this arms race by having easier regulations for “light trucks”. Fix the incentives and maybe things will come back into balance.

Over the past 40 or so years, our country has deferred maintenance on the road system because taxes bad, gas must be cheap and freedom. We’ve also systematically cut almost all the strings to our safety nets, deregulated everything we could get away with and what we’ve ended up with is a world where honestly, Trucks…

If you go to actual economists and ask them “X has negative externalities, but some people really need X and some don’t and there’s a big grey area of people who just like X, how can we nudge people away from it without banning X for everyone”, 10 out of 10 economists will tell you to tax it.

If a truck buyer honestly defends their purchase, I think most of us would move on with life. The problem is the truck buyers who are defending their God-given right to do whatever they want with no regard for the society they exist within and impact. This is not about trucks; it is about selfishness.

I just wish appropriately aimed headlights were a thing.

We live in a very reactive society that throws a tantrum over even the slightest of inconveniences. If people charging their cars starts causing frequent rolling blackouts all year round, either the infrastructure (the same one that can’t possibly be updated or improved today because of reasons) will improve very…

Found the dealership owner. Selling cars isn’t essential. Fixing one? Yep, sure. But selling one doesn’t make you a hero. 

Ps. The dealership model is fucking garbage. Get bent you bootlicking shit for brains.

I honestly don’t understand WHY dealerships pull the shady shit that makes customers angry. Before you chime in “because it’s profitable” when you think of it, it’s actually not.

Maserati Biturbo: the car you buy if you want to make a YouTube car restoration series that never ends. Part 167: fixing what we fixed in parts 57, 88, and 123. Next episode: fixing what we fixed three years ago in part 15, last year in part 110, and three weeks ago in part 155.

You don’t have to look any further to see privilege than to see who oops, I didn’t know, and I’ll never do it again works as a defense. The fact that the girl who stole Pelosi’s laptop and intended to give it to Russia was released to her mother’s custody is a joke.   

I disagree that incarceration isn’t the solution. Well, maybe it’s not the “solution” but it’s certainly the consequence of their actions that is established by the law. I have zero, and I mean ZERO problem with idiots like this spending years in prison, being convicted felons, unable to vote or get good jobs. They…

At this point I almost don’t give a shit about their radicalization. I know I should because dangerous and the horrific clusterfuck that is the prison system and all, but honestly; this reminds me of when I would watch shows like Sons of Anarchy and the protagonists would do heinous illegal shit but just throw fits…

I wouldn't trust these morons to talk to a fire hydrant, let alone a bunch of kids.

Nah, fuck these moronic and ironic traitors. If you’re stupid enough to follow a complete fucking moron like Trump you deserve jail time. A very hard example needs to be made of what happened on January 6th otherwise the consequences could be worse. Some of these asshats literally planned to kill leaders of our…

A bunch of white people who think you can get away with felonies by saying sorry are confused as to what constitutes white privilege.
