    Al Queda recruitment Up

    So the Attorney General says that Al-Qaeda wants to "hit the United States hard." Yet there's no specific information about time or place, and there are no recommendations for actions or precautions for citizens to make? What exactly is the goal of this press conference? I mean, other than to...

    Has anyone seen the new Scion tC?

    Neat little car. Would make a cool autocrosser/commuter. $16.5k is a steal. Will probably be hard to find one without $3k of dealer-installed froo-froo on it. The car would be more fun at $15k, without 200 lbs of sunroof/pw/pl/tilt/cruise. MR

    ACLU at it again.

    I believe in the ACLU, but man do they need to learn to pick their battles. MR

    Citgo Ultra Life 10w-30 High Mileage oil - Kia Rio

    Wow, these Citgo oils continue to impress. Keep us updated on the trends in the Kia. BTW Motorbike, looks like you'd be a great person to buy a used car from. MR

    Kerry Comment

    There an echo in here? The fact that Drudge has made false claims before about Kerry (that border upon slander, BTW) seriously damages his credibility in the matter. "Being right sometimes" doesn't make a journalist credible. MR

    A real War Hero

    Amazing - this guy eats nails and craps barbed wire. Y'know, a lot of us disagree about how they got there, but you have to give it up to guys like this. Hoping you come home soon, guys. [EDIT: Guys and women, too.] MR [ May 25, 2004, 01:25 PM: Message edited by: MikeR ]

    Bosozoku- Japanese biker/car gang crazy vehicle pictures

    Holy exhaust pipes, Batman! Seems like RWD Cressidas (Crestas?) are big. Cool. I'd think that hanging dangling your oil cooler lines out front like that, you'd be asking for some punk to come cut them. But people probably don't mess with these guys. Thx for the link! MR

    AWB harming U.S. Troops

    Sorry that this is my third "discredit the source" post in a row. Not trying to discredit anyone personally. My point is just that anything you find on the Web, especially from a politically-oriented site (conservative or liberal) should be taken with a grain of salt. Copy and Paste are...

    Kerry Comment

    You're saying that Drudge is trustworthy because he considers himself an insider? Drudge's sense of self-importance has no bearing on whether the event actually happened or not. He broke the "Kerry Intern" scandal too. That turned out to be patently false. MR

    Kerry Comment

    Dude, you copied and pasted this from the Drudge Report. You consider that guy a credible source of information? MR

    Pontiac GTO

    According to Autoweek, they're having a hard time moving them off the lots because of bland styling and high prices. article here To me, it's a dated European design with a Grand Prix nose on it. Catera Coupe, anyone? Maybe that USA Movie/commercial The Last Ride will boost sales. MR

    Old Union 76 10w-40 in 1991 Honda Accord

    Heck, use it for 3k or so. Free oil! In a 13 year old car, in the Arizona desert, a 10w-40 shouldn't hurt anything. MikeR

    Where to buy Nissan Matic ATF online?

    Looking for a source for Nissan Matic D ATF for our Xterra. Anyone know of a source online? My dealer's on my $%^* list since I bought oil filters there at full retail, then came home to notice the same dealer sells them online for 2/3 that price. Didn't find that to be too "Courteous" of them...

    Eagle One " Wax - As - You - Dry"

    I like the stuff. Similar to Meguiar's Quick Detailer. I wouldn't use any of these products on a car without water, though. Any grit on the car at all, including dust, will leave scratches. M

    What oil for new G.M 3.5L 5 banger?

    The I5 makes 225 ft-lb of torque at 2800 RPM, whereas the old 4.3 V6 made 245 ft-lb at the same RPM. The new engine makes more HP only because it revs much higher. Although it's a neat concept, a lot of people are going to see the 3.5L I5 as a step down. GM has to find a way to shoehorn that I6...

    Monster Garage Builds Rice!

    Lots of kids drive cheap fwd cars because that's all they can afford to insure. Most 16 year old males CAN NOT afford the premium on a Z28 or a Mustang. So Baby Boomers, think about all the parking-lot brodies you did and the speeding tickets you got in the ol' Camaro when you pull up next to...

    5W20 and summer heat

    Seems that 5w-20 dino oils are often (if not always) actually Group III blends, in order to meet requirements. Often have a buttload of Moly and Boron too, as compared to their 5/10w-30 counterparts. http://theoildrop.server101.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=11;t=000148#000000 So a...
