    Any cars you regret buying? - My '14 CR-V experience

    I regret buying my 2006 Jeep Liberty CRD. Cool car and certainly a learning experience for me with regards to diesels, but what a raging pile of crap. I mean the Jeep Liberty alone was crappy, but then you throw an Italian built diesel in there and you have a recipe for disaster. Mine ended up...

    What will this POS 1992 Toyota Pickup sell for at auction.... hmm...

    I am in the second gen 4Runner group on the facetoobs, since I have one myself, and the asking prices are insane right now. I've considered just throwing it up for sale to see what happens. Excpet for some rust around the rear wheel wells, its very clean. Frame is excellent.

    Oil Weight Recommendation for 2010 Crown Vic

    I do this on my F150 Ecoboost but the faster crank happens at like 2-3 seconds. I assummed that was when the oil had made it to all the various locations but I supposed maybe it could be a cam phaser thing as well.

    Thoughts on Super Tech?

    Thats why its good to have a 1995 22RE 4Runner around that consumes oil at an alarming rate 😂. I never have to change the oil and I just dump what I have laying around into it. Its had ST 5W-30, QSUD and PP all in the last couple of weeks Also the lawnmower gets whatever I have laying around...

    Review: '21 Suburban Z71 (14,574 miles/6 weeks)

    Im on the fence on the 3.0 dmax. On paper the engine is exceptional but I have been part of the Silverado/Sierra 1500 Duramax group on FB for probably close to 2 years now and they are definitely not trouble free.

    Thoughts on Super Tech?

    I think its good oil and you should get it if you are in need of oil right away, however, you can get the brand name oils for cheaper with rebates.

    Used Titan vs Tundra

    I have always heard good reports from people with first gen Titans. The one issue is I believe the rear diff may have been a weak point. I do think the Tundra 5.7L will outperform the 5.6L though. If you plan on using it to tow or anything, this may be a consideration. 64 hp difference is not...

    GM has ruined the looks of the new Corvette so bad I now like the Camaro better

    I also don't like the Camaro. Or the Mustang really. Too flamboyant. I did have a 2006 GTO however. That I liked, I think because it looked like a Cavalier/Sunfire :ROFLMAO: Other than the hood scoops, it was pretty low key.

    Why I have stuck with Amsoil.

    That would be like 3-5 years for me at the moment :ROFLMAO: Whats the fun in changing your oil once every 3-5 years?!

    GM has ruined the looks of the new Corvette so bad I now like the Camaro better

    I live adjacent to a ski resort town and its pretty common for me to see all sorts of six figure sports cars cruising around on the weekends. Hell, a dude was selling his 458 Challenge for $195k on the local Facebook Yardsale group a few weeks back. The C8 gets me almost every time I see one. I...

    Low/Mid SAPS oil for GDI?

    On my Ecoboost, a ton. In the summer, probably 1000 miles but in the winter it was every 500. I filled a windshield washer fluid bottle in less than 10000 miles. But it caught a lot more than oil as the post above suggests. The catch can I had sat out in front of the radiator so it got blasted...

    Low/Mid SAPS oil for GDI?

    Sorry, I never saw this. Here is the link: Right around 3:00 is where he talks about the SAE study. I agree that catch cans catch a whole variety of stuff. On my ecoboost, it settles out into 4 layers if you drain it and let it sit. The bottom layer is dark brown oily mixture and then there...

    Torque Pro for OBD2 Bluetooth

    I am 99% sure that THE Torque Pro app that everyone raves about is not available on apple devices, only android. There are a few knockoffs on the Apple app store that have logos and names that look like the real thing. If you want a good OBD app for iPhone, look at OBDFusion or the OBDLink app...

    Opinions of 1999 era 5.7L Chevy Tahoe and GMC Yukon?

    When you say good towing ability, what do you mean? What are you towing and where? A 255hp/335 ft-lb engine with a 4 speed would not be on my list. My 301 hp/330 tq GX with a 6 speed has troubles with my travel trailer.

    F-150 buying advice.

    F150’s have plenty of issues, but paint is not one ive run across all that often. And I spend way to much time on the F150 forums.

    Used F150 2.7 vs 3.7

    Tacoma has been dual injection for 7 years now. Almost the exact length that the 2.7 has been in existence.

    Used F150 2.7 vs 3.7

    Better maintenance? You mean like using good oil at reasonable OCI's? Man, if only there were a forum full of people who obsess over oil all day long. . . . . the 2.7 would be perfect for them.

    F-150 buying advice.

    Are you referring to the 2001 F150 in your sig? Although, if i had to pick between a 2014 F150 5.0 and a 2014 Tundra I would pick the tundra.
