Man, how baller would you have been picking up the lady from her dormicile at half past 5 to take her to the ballroom for a night’s dancing and hand holding. No walking, no smelly horses, just you and your steam engine on wheels.

I’ll be honest, if I met Clarkson and he wasn't a jerk to me I'd probably be at least a little disapointed.

The most exciting part about the new Top Gear will be watching Chris Evans slowly implode before Matt LeBlanc just takes the show over completely.

Dipsticks, anyone?

Bored son in law of Kajillionaire takes one of kajillionaires wifeys $100K car after she’s bored with it and makes it art project to boast a socialist to show how “down with the struggle” he is from behind his 8ft tall privately secured walls.....a true man of the people....

Don’t pierce wire insulation when taking readings or checking for power. Instead, use T-pins to back-probe wires. Slide the pointy end down into the connector, and attach your multimeter. A paperclip can work too, but the T is easier to fasten an alligator clip to, and the sharp point helps to minimize damage to the

If anyone takes away just one tip this is the one to take - LABEL EVERYTHING! I like to use zip ties and masking tape to make little label flags (complete with a Sharpie!) putting matching numbers on the flags of two things that go together. Also I’ll zip tie screws / nuts back into / on the part they came from

When changing any fluid, always loosen the "fill" port before draining the fluid. The last thing you want is to drain, say, all of your transmission fluid only to find out that the fill port is stripped or cross-threaded and can't be removed leaving you with a dry transmission. Better to have old fluid than no fluid.

50/50 ATF/Acetone works even better and costs less. ;)
