    2006 Harley Electra Glide Twin Cam 88

    The same can be said, who cares if you have to correct your steering a bit on the highway when a semi passes you? You're on a bike, there's gonna be wind ;) . Every bike is affected by crosswinds. It's never been a problem for me, and looking at the number of Batwings to Roadglide fairings on...

    2006 Harley Electra Glide Twin Cam 88

    I've traveled hundreds of thousands of miles with batwing fairings. It's a non-issue for me. I also rode a 1983 FLT for a couple years, so comparison wise I've had crosswind problems with both style of front ends. Pros for the Roadglide fairing is the calmer cockpit, less buffeting. However, the...

    1965 442 value guidance

    Yep it sure is. So your goal should be to find that someone willing to pay. I'd throw a few adds out, maybe starting on Craigslist or Facebook marketplace and see what comes your way before just taking 15k. You'll never know if you can get more until you try.

    It's worth whatever someone will pay you for it.

    Financial graphic comparison of buying a new or used car

    About 10 years ago we had an apprentice who got married, had two kids, and his wife came accross some money from an inheritance. The first thing they did was buy a fully loaded Cadilac Escalade. They also blew money on trips and some other stuff I can't recall. Most of us thought it was a...

    Rural King/Providence Full Syn 5qt jugs.

    Never heard of that brand. Not sure if I'd use it my 2018 Avalon without any information on it. However, I'd certainly use it in my 2001Blazer (y)

    Cleaning the engine bay very regularly is the best approach

    I worry about all the electronics under the hood, so I just wipe what I can and never spray water.

    Financial graphic comparison of buying a new or used car

    Not only does he drive a 2014 Caddy, he bought one with hail damage to save money. I think that fact might shine some light upon the Sam vs Sarah argument as far as money goes. 😊 Personally, I have never bought a new car because I knew I could do better things with it. I also don't like the...

    Financial graphic comparison of buying a new or used car

    Sarah's hot roomate has slept with every guy that has a nice new expensive car in the neighborhood. Along the way, she picked up herpes and now Sam has something other than a nice new car :unsure:

    2GR-FE is pretty easy on oil I guess...

    What does your owner's manual specify? I run Supertech 0w-20 in my 2018 Avalon. 6 months or 5k OCI whatever comes first and the oil always looks good coming out.

    What is going on with the MC styling these days?

    Agreed. We don't buy enough bikes. I have a younger cousin who doesn't even drive. He has no interest in it at all. Public transportation is all he takes. In fact, other than sticking his face in his iPhone, he has no interest in anything :ROFLMAO: My guess is that in Europe they face much...

    Vandalism 24 f150

    I've heard this BS from teachers for a long time. First off, they have the entire summer off. So if they worked a full year like the rest of us, that 59K per year would be more like 80K per year. Thats more than the average salary in the US...
