Not sure why everyone is just blaming the Audi unless it is car envy of some sort. He lost on the repair bills and was the more aggressive in the end but you can't tell who was in the lane first. In the video you can see the Audi was fully in the lane and the Suzuki still had the right two tires outside in the lane to…

Finding one of these older cars that is not abused by a teen or been wrecked is a great feeling. Getting it at a decent price and learning it is in BETTER than expected shape is priceless! I just bought a 1993 MR2 off the internet several states from me and love it. It only has the 2.2 but was a one owner car that was…

I spent a lot of time trying to find a stock Mk2 MR2 that wasn't priced more than when it was new! Not many out there and people seem to think it is worth more than when they bought it. And no luck on a turbo but I DID find a 1993 2.2 with the manual and everything on it is stock. Not original but stock so it has been…

YUP! I tried to blow up my Pinto as a teen and it wouldn't die. They just got slower with age. I tried running it with no oil after it pissed me off mid oil change, no problems. Thought it sounded neat if you took it down the road at about 60 and would slam it in reverse and still didn't die. BTW, it sounded like a…

Very true. ALS gets a lot of funding when about 6500 people die of it a year. Breast cancer charities also get a ton though it is way behind in issues like heart disease. Suicide costs most lives a year than ALS but is gets 1/10th the funding through charities than ALS. And I know someone with ALS who has lived…

I think the job is already taken! They have a ghost in the interior so it is likely someone that beat you to that idea....

Incorrect. They bought the car with a clean title that had been screwed up by a state official well before they bought it. It was one of the previous owners who got the changed VIN and SUCCESSFULLY managed to "slide one past the inspection folks." No way they should or could be reasonably jailed since they had all…

And did you read the article? Nothing in it about the cars being in a shady area involved. It seems some asshat like you is jealous of the family business and attacking them. You also will see plenty of very expensive equipment in even bad neighborhoods. For example I drove through one of the worst areas of town today…

I had a business and it had very expensive equipment I took good care of and was proud of. So would you cheer people burning it up or running around setting million dollar construction equipment on fire because the owners had pictures taken with their equipment? I think you have a flashy computer, can I burn it…

Some Asshole art the drive in theaters had one last weekend. He decided he needed to start hits car half way through the first movie. After a few minutes suck being blinded by him I walk over and tell him to take his for the brake. Asshat tries to tell me it it's a requirement of the car to have his for on the brake…

Yeah, I know, you ignored the link about the OFFICIAL Technical Service Bulletin about that pump. Yup, I am the clueless one. Please do keep trying. Not like I didn't give you the one for your model year too. You know, your model that 2011 per your statement. So, do you even turn a wrench or do more than use your…

LOL, face it, you are clueless since two seconds of searching found all kinds of issues with the fuel systems. Add in the claim you don't need one and it shows you are clueless since that means dirt goes through the injectors which means they wear out a lot faster and get plugged up so they need changed a lot more…

Or you can do a bit of checking and find the fuel "filter" (a look at one it is more like a strainer you see on a small engine!) is in the tank and when it plugs you get to purchase a whole new fuel pump. That $475.79 plus shipping is cheap maintenance isn't it? That is before the added maintenance costs because the…

Yes the oil changes are more expensive due to the mount of oil but you have a big reduction in other costs for maintenance. You have a lot more reliability in a diesel and that is the maintenance savings due to not having to deal with things like plugs, wires or the entire ignition system in a gas powered truck. A…

You must not work on many vehicles then. Diesels require a lot LESS maintenance instead of more then a gas engine. They also last a lot longer while being pushed harder more often so they have a lot better reliability in general than a gas engine.

Too bad it won't be able to be driven by most people!

YUP! I used to love hearing about things like that or seeing him when he still worked at the White Truck plant and the diesels big enough I was put in the cylinders! I can't remember the year but he was invited to see the Indy 500 with my dad who was a kid. Dad was amazed at the box they were in that was totally empty…

Yes it was a Deusenberg chassis. I know that one for sure.

Hint, only picture we have of my grandfather with hair is on page 11, the second page of the article Triumph of the Diesel....

You might have bumped in to my grandfather then. He designed, helped build and installed the engine in it. I can't remember if it was this one od the 1950s one that the car owner pulled the motor out and put it in his personal car after the race because he liked the engine so much.
