Last week I grabbed a can of ac dye and dumped it into my RAM to find a small leak and the line froze solid and it stopped cooling. In small print the can said contains stop leak and seal conditioner. It apparently clogged up the lines and would barely cool. On the way home yesterday it broke...

I had a stink bug spend the winter under the circuit board of my big Schumacher charger and it shorted out when I used it. Good luck getting any customer service from them. I still can't get them to sell me any replacement parts.

Stopped at a NAPA store yesterday to get some generic 3/8" fuel line. It was $4 a foot. The store was plastered with hateful printed signs about no returns for anything ordered online and a bunch of other reasons. The brick and mortar stores in this area are barely hanging on. A while back I...

The only good spider is a dead spider. 👍

Can't go wrong with a GC. I've owned several over the years. The leather seats are very comfortable especially on long drives. The only down side is the price. I always get them at auction when they are a couple years old and less than half the price.

When I was a kid that's what everybody did. The old people always told me it wouldn't hurt anything because it came from the ground in the first place.

I see lots of coyotes on our property lately. The Kentucky forestry department has been cutting thousands and hundreds of thousands of acres of trees in the last few years, im guessing its getting shipped to China for paper but anyway it's pushing the wild animals into residential...

I've known many people who have wrecked their four wheel drives on slick roads because they didn't understand that it doesn't help you stop any better. A car in motion tends to stay in motion until you hit an immoveable object. Weight helps with traction but makes stopping a nightmare. I would...

My RAM is awd and 4WD but my Grand Cherokee just has AWD. My wife didn't like shifting in and out of 4x4 in winter so we started buying everything with awd.

I miss my 03 GT. I would never have let it get in that bad a shape.

I will be 61 in a couple of weeks and yes old age slows you down a lot. I decided to change my control arm bushings in my truck to save a few hundred bucks a while back. What should have been a weekend job changing four bushings has now taken 31 days. Half way through I lost interest because my...

I save my used oil for help starting up the old outdoor wood burner in winter.

Awd is good for slick asphalt during your daily commute and running to the grocery store on a snow day.

Never heard of black bear pass but it looks pretty easy compared to some of the logging roads here in Kentucky. If you want to go off road it comes down to tires, experience and ground clearance. Well maybe a good winch on the bumper too. Car Advertisements saying offroad capable means nothing.

I'm going to have to look at the last box of deck screws and see who made them. I paid a premium price for a lifetime non rusting coated screws that rusted and broke almost as fast as a drywall screw would. With all this rain then the high 90's drying the deck real fast is busting a ton of...
