    Gulfstream crash - Dominican Republic

    All that off-pavement rough and repeated ground contact broke open the fuel tanks, then vaporized fuel experienced a spark or contact with hot metal. Max fuel capacity is 15,000 pounds, or a bit over 2200 gallons...

    Gulfstream crash - Dominican Republic

    Looks like the mains did not extend. Poor judgement, they landed with a strong tailwind, which increased their groundspeed. Edit: after reading the preliminary report, it looks like the video started after the mains already collapsed… And if this was indeed an engine failure, they would have...

    Are vehicle owners leaving their tow ball in place subject to to insurance fraud?

    Oh, please. You walked into a stationary object. It's your own fault. That's like suing a grocery store when you walk into a candy display. Or suing the auto parts store when you walk into an engine block displayed in an open area. Or suing a homeowner because their mailbox sticks out...

    Intermittent Torque Converter Lock Up -1998 Jeep Cherokee XJ - AW4

    Sorry so late to the party, only signed up a few months ago after reading for years. Excellent. Glad it's working well. I do note that no one has asked the mileage on your Jeep. (Might have missed it though) Transmissions are designed for clean fluid. For the Jeeps I've had in the past, a...

    What is the danger of using one of the newer oils in old vehicles

    Maybe nothing, or maybe accelerated wear. If you want to (potentially) sacrifice your engine for science, let us know how it goes. With UOAs! Is this the 2.4? I never went thinner than 5w30 on ours; no issues.

    Idiots that drive with hitch balls attached…

    The title of this thread should be changed to "Idiots with no integrity that hit you and run in a parking lot". I agree with the member that said you should check with the security cameras of the shopping area. Soon. Because they may not store the images for very long.

    Panhandlers at absolute perfect choke point- family in real need or hustlers/ con men?

    They're professional beggars. Been going on a long time; my dad used to give a guy at the subway station some pocket change, until one day he came out of work late and saw the guy look around, get up and get into a limousine! My personal stories-- Had 2 guys in a median strip begging for bus...
