I bought one of those. Works fair. The fill hose is too short and get pretty hot, and it takes FOEVER to fill a tire. The batteries "might" last long enough to top off 4 tires. These are being sold under various name brands, but they are all identicle inside. Paid $30.00 about 6 months ago...

Do you get penalized on your homeowners insurance?

No thanks.

Depending on mileage driven, I'd say you'd be OK for two years.

Mercedes still uses MBtex, which is not leather, and not cloth, but it's a whole lot nicer than the old vinyl.

Until you pull up to the drive through window and the server has to shield their eyes, it needs another coat! :LOL:

Merkur is German for the fleet footed Mercury of Greek gods!

Never had an issue finding tires. Commonly found 14 and 15" sizes worked just fine. In fact, I've never heard of a "metric tire". I don't believe that a non-turbo version was available. These came from Germany as I recall, but had a Garrett high pressure turbo on them. In fact, one of the hot...

I owned this one, A 1986 double wing. Of course I took off the "phone dial" wheels (for those of you that remember dial phones! :ROFLMAO: ) I replaced those 14" wheels with 15" from a 1989 Merkur. It looked much better. While I was at it I upgraded the suspension, and exhaust manifolds from...

There are mobile scratch services, just like the mobile dent guys that will do a job like that. They can match and mix the GM paint color right on the truck.

That's why golf balls have dimples.

SO, In practical terms, it's the best we have that is relatively cheap, readily available, and better than guessing the water quality coming out of your hose.

Mercedes does them right, and any AMG car, or Amg kitted E class will have them. You may have heard the two versions, Luxury or Sport E Class. My 2014 E class sport had them, my 2018 Luxury does not. I DO miss the look though. just personal preference. Both of these cars had excellent brakes...

Don't overlook the upper strut bearing. I thought I could see some slight movement up in that area.

Yeah. When you have at least two electric pumps (and possibly 3) in your trans, I don't think you want to be trying other fluids.

I prefer the flat egg noodles, like you make chicken soup from. Wide seems to work. And don't forget, you can fancy it up a bit with bacon, saved bacon grease, ham chuncks, etc. My Father always liked his a bit sweet, so he'd sprinkle a little sugar on too. It takes a lot more cabbage than you...

Fried cabbage and noodles!

Yes. They used a different cam profile in the 300 hp ones. I owned both versions and musch preferred the STS/ETC version with the lower overall gearing and 300 HP. Same fuel economy, which was good for the time, but that's no longer the case. They actually tried to certify that engine for...

I watch SpaceX send a rocket up every 2-3 days from my back porch. And every time I see one, I just hope that they didn't use the same glue they used on the CT!:LOL:

I like the people at O'reallys. Prices, not so much, but hey, at least I'm treated like a customer. If I go into AZ, I'm more likely to be just ignored. NAPA is good too, very professional.
