    Best years of jeep wangler

    If you're expecting the ride of a Cadillac Escalade out of a Jeep Wrangler, I have some swamp land in Southeast Georgia I'll sell you. The Wrangler is for all intents and purposes a truck, a descendant of the WW2 Willy's MB, the M38, M38A1, the M151s, the CJ, YJ, TJ, JK and now JL. They're...

    Remington 870 tactical set up question

    The term 'tactical', or is it 'tacticool', has been so overused and over abused as it make it revoltingly irrelevant. Is 'tactical' the add on goodies and appearance, or is 'tactical' the individual skill of the person operating the gun in deployment and utilization? In IveBeenRued's...

    The Army’s new rifle - the XM7

    As long as defense contractrors exist, the military will always need a "new and better" weapon platform. The Taliban were shooting at us with old Lee Enfields and Mosin-Nagants . . . so "better" once again remains the vague and subjective term. As the old saying goes: It's the Indian, not the...

    oil shortages??

    Walmart tends to be hit or miss in my area. One can be run like a slum in shambles, and another 10 miles away can be clean, well organized . . . and well stocked !!

    Supertech Advanced Full Synthetic 5w30

    To the OP, MS-6395 is rather ancient. I'm surprised it hasn't been upgraded. FWIW, I've got two Chrysler vehicles, both with the 3.6 Pentastar engines, both have been running on Quaker State Ultimate Protection 5W-30, and before that came out, Pennzoil Platinum. The QS is about $6.00 per oil...

    Does ignition coil color mean anything?

    You use the red coil pack in red cars. Blue coil pack in blue cars, Green coil pack in green cars. I have no freakin' idea which color would go with white, black, silver, gray or neon colored vehicles. (sarcasm included)

    Chinese Die Hard Batteries - For What It's Worth

    Went to procure a Die Hard battery for the Jeep, and noticed two different Die Hard Platinum AGM batteries within the same group size. Ones in the usual gray colored casing that resembles the Auto Zone Duralast, and ones in an all black case. On all the black cased Platinum batteries was a...

    Colt C-19 for Canadian Arctic Rangers

    The older No 4 Mk I Lee Enfield also has a detachable 10 round magazine. It's likely more of a question of ammunition compatibility with the military for the cartridge choice. It's a stronger action, and easier to get service and parts for. Probably not a whole lot of old serviceable Lee Enfield...

    Colt C-19 for Canadian Arctic Rangers

    Being it is essentially a Tikka T3 CTR bolt action, and with detachable magazines, it is a definite improvement over the Lee-Enfield.

    Linde Signs Agreement with ExxonMobil for Carbon Dioxide Off-take

    I suppose the notion that green vegetation - eggzample: trees, grass, etc. - all convert CO2 to Oxygen was not part of the money laundering process. Ehhh, who needs oxygen anyway. Nature has been taking care of CO2 for millions of years, but we think we can do better ?? Let me know how all this...

    Pentastar 3.6 recommendations

    One would think that after all this time that a quality replacement would be on the market that (a) worked, and (b) didn't spring leaks all over the place. Then again, the engine designers couldn't have used a regular canister filter and put it where you can f***ing get to it without taking the...
