Considering what a pristine beautiful state Wyoming is (in places), it’s too bad its government doesn’t give a shit about the environment. I was for years a member of an environmental enforcement training group with member states which included Alaska (also an oil state), Alberta (oil oil oil) and every other state wes…

Will be worth that some day. I voted NP. One of the few. But I don’t think it would sell for that even on BaT today now that I looked at prices. $27K maybe. Sorry to ruin y’alls shot at 100% ND. 

Turns out Sainz broke two vertebrae when he launched over that dune and did an endo at the bottom. He called in the helo, got in, took off, then made them turn around and finished the stage as I recall. The next day he dropped out, went to hospital and found out the extent of the damage. Amazing what 11hp will do for…

My 1998 Ranger 4x4 bought new was one of my favorite vehicles of all time. But it was the 4L version and was quite fast. The size was just perfect and it went offroad anywhere I wanted to go. I thought so much of it I thought about getting a 2023 Ranger, that was until I drove my neighbor’s Ranger. There was literally…

A 2007 Subaru Impreza: unimpressive; boring; and awful seats. The only thing memorable about it was that it puked its head gaskets at 55K miles. I gave it away. 

When I bought my most recent Jeep Wrangler I went in with cash. But the finance guy convinced me to get a loan for like $15K and they threw in a $1000 off the Jeep. I thought they were suckers because the first thing I’d do was just pay off the loan in full. Nope. Chrysler Credit Corp wouldn’t take more than $2500 in…

Great advice about trying out a simple repair first. A few years ago I was thinking of buying a Triumph dual sport motorcycle from a dealership. It was about a $14K bike. They were also a Suzuki dealer, so I took my 400cc Super Moto to them for some minor work I could have done myself. I did not end up buying the…

And it looks way less douchey than a Ford Bronco Sport. 

Wesley’s bar license dates to January of 2021. And he is currently practicing on a “probationary license” according to the State Bar of Texas website. He runs a Tik Tok channel as “Chef Way.” What aspiring DA has time to moonlight as a social media star? 

You’ve obviously never been on Southwest Airlines, the fleshy flier airline of choice. 

Out here in the mountains of Antivaxxistan that Wrangler at that price would have been gone within an hour of posting on CL regardless of the rust which can’t be too bad from just looking at the body. Sure, not the best year, front suspension probably shot, but if needed a new crate 4L is $1800. I just perused the…

That is exactly what they are going for around here. Would I pay that? No. If I’m going to risk my life in a cabover position I want diesel Delica. Synchros start at $20K. 

I especially hope they continue their sponsorship of the KTM Factory Team that races at Dakar. I really don’t want to have to start drinking Monster Engery and supporting Honda. And god forbid they cut me off of my sugar free Red Bull. 

My Wrangler sucks in the snow. There I said it. Even with some aggressive M/S Nittos on it. But you don’t have to put it in 4 wheel drive and you can drift it, unlike my ex Range Rover that would not go sideways no matter what you did. 

Doesn’t matter to me if they’re grounded or not. I won’t get in a Max of any sort.  

For make benefit glorious Formula One. 

Along about the time I cut the roof of my mouth on a Jimmy John’s stale bread sub I became a Mike’s convert. 

Just make it mandatory on Dodge Ram 2500 pickups. That would solve half the problem right there.

4L from the desert would get this NP any day or $10K on BaT. Even though the 2 doors tend to sag and cause issues unless you’re handy with a welder (DT is not a fan of 2 doors FWIW). I habitually vote ND for anything from PA or MI or anywhere else they salt roads. Also not a fan of cars from PDX or SEA. 

This is good to know. I’ve used Google Fi since almost the beginning because of its ease of use in travel. I can’t wait to buy the iPhone 14 and get rid of my Garmin InReach device.
