I was always a fen of the show and still watch it often. Was watching yesterday on Peacock and Season 6 Episode 17 came on. It was called the parking attendant where Wally and Eddy Haskel get paid to park cars at a party. All I could do was stare at all the mint cars pulling up to be parked...

Driving home from work on Thursday with my Wife’s Mustang when a guy in a Jag runs a stop sign to my right. I slam so hard on the brakes that I felt the antilock kick in. I don’t think I was 2 seconds away from being T boned. I stop in the intersection see the Jag and go after him. Roll next to...

Not sure if this has been posted before. Sorry if so. Jim \Working

Went out to dinner the other night and someone hit our Rav4 and left. Didn't realize it until the next day. No cams. Don't understand why people can't take responsibility for what they did. Insurance is taking care of it but inconvenient. Jim

I sure can. My 02 Dakota and the 89 F150 should both be gone. NOPE!. Jim Save 'em All!

Brought my 02 Dakota in the shop yesterday for a front end noise. Turned out to be the prop shaft on the diff. Problem is that my buddy at the garage was talking to me about the miss he was feeling on the test drive. He was saying that the 4.7 engines have a valve seat collapse problem. Said it...

I can't say enough about the people on here. There is no bickering or putting down here at all, only encouragement. Can't say that about some other groups I am on. There are a couple welding forums I am on to learn , look at others work, and get inspired. I never post there because I am not a...

There was mention of a wife support. Made me curious, how many have supportive wives and ask their opinions on your project. Bonus, how many wives help? I am fortunate that my wife is supportive, for the most part. Her complaint is I have too many projects at once. She never questions what I buy...

For those who celebrate have a great Festivus. Let the feats of strength begin!! Jim

Just thinking, what are thoughts on restoring a newer vehicle rather than getting rid of it for something newer. I have an 02 Dodge Dakota with 163K on it. 4x4, ext cab.4.7l, Runs good. Body rusty, frame is OK. I have had it 10+ years and pretty much know every squeak. Over the years replaced...

Found this going through stuff. Dad worked at Raybestos for 33yrs. I for a summer. Not sure what it is for. Just pay shipping. Jim .

I have an 89 F150. Put a new fuel system from tank to engine. I put in a couple gallons of gas in it and was running it when it died. Won’t start. I put a little gas in and still nothing. Did some troubleshooting and no gas in the line. So the question is , is it possible that that 2 gallons...

I do not want to turn this into a political thread. That said does anyone else feel stressed from the things going on both in and out our country? The shootings for 1 but just the pure anger and disrespect. I was brought up in an Italian household where we were taught how to be polite and...

I enjoy social media that talks to my interests. There are some great ones and some not so good. My 2 go tos are here and a Suzuki BBS. Twitter is ridiculous but I go there for news info and weather info. Instagram has my automotive and animal algorithms so that is cool. Facebook by far is the...

Hurricane Lee is no joke. Really hope that monster stays out to sea. Already a cat5. Jim

After 3 plus years of ducking Covid our luck ran out. Wife and I are both positive. Feel ok til temp spikes. Almost 103F yesterday. Went to the walk-in and got some Paxaloid and started taking it yesterday. Her with asthma and me over 65 DR recommended it. Jim

On our way to Virginia from CT saw a car show in a Chevy dealership in Maryland or VA. The cars were all top notch. Jim

No prize but bragging rights. My Son borrowed my 02 Dakota. Calls me and says he heard a pop and the front end is wobbling. Got it homebut could drive over about 10mph. I won't get over to look at it for about a week. Not sure what the problem is. Had a grind kind of sound in the right front...

My old F150 has been sitting for a while and the transmission has a little leak and the headers have a coating on them. I am a little worried about fire when I move it shortly. Am I being paranoid or is there a fire risk? Thanks. Jim

Got my tshirt yesterday and it is really nice . Thanks for letting us be a part of the 1st annual. Jim
