In my case, it's a perk of my Chase Sapphire card (the Preferred, not the Reserve). I purchased an open-box Sony A95K a couple years back, which failed after 6 months and was warrantied Sony. Sony supplied a brand new A95L, as the A95K was no longer in production. Heck of a score, right? A new...

2026 Ram 1500 gets Hemi V8 option That didn't take long...

Date code on the engine puts it ~1989. It looks a lot better after pressure washing, and it started on the second pull after I dumped the tank and put in some fresh stuff. The P.O. said he hadn't used it in a few years, but he kept it really nice shape. I've got a new deck idler pulley and...

Hart 3600w Generator Local WM had two left, marked down to $249. I stopped in on lunch to grab a jug of Rotella and noticed them out of the corner of my eye. I thought it over for a few minutes but decided to pass as power outages aren't overly common where we are, only to change my mind a few...

Boss told me to get rid of it, but it seems like it COULD be useful to someone. I have no idea what it's for but it appears to take any 6-16v DC source and provides a steady 12v output at up to 8A. If anyone can use it, cover actual shipping and it's yours.

Used once to program a radio in my Regal and worked perfectly. If you have any need to program GM vehicles, this is the tool for you. Asking $75 shipped to the lower 48. Thanks everyone!

Anyone else here owned a car with a heated windshield? Not the grid for the wipers, the entire glass. My new-to-me 1995 Cadillac Seville is the first vehicle I've owned with this feature, and now that's we're getting some snow I've been able to test it out. For those who don't know: the...

I might be out of my mind, but I'm a sucker for a clean Cadillac. I won this lovely example for a whopping $525 (a touch over $900 with fees): Clean title, 1 owner, 68k miles. Looks to be fully loaded for an SLS: cell phone, heated seats, sunroof, Bose CD/Cassette. I won't be able to pick it...

A quick Google search of the site here yielded no hits for this particular vendor, so now that my order has officially arrived I thought I'd post a quick review: Back story: our 2006 Kia Spectra developed a fuel leak during the extreme cold snap here in the Midwest, which I discovered was...

Arrived today and assembled in ~30 minutes, here's a quick review: This guy is a brute, especially for the $150.99 I paid when it was on sale. Home Depot offers the same one with free shipping, as well, for those not interested in doing business with Amazon. If one of these has been on your...

At the ripe old age of 35.... I'm currently 3.5 weeks removed from having two labrum tears and one rotator cuff tear repaired in my left shoulder. This is the price to be paid for choosing to be a mechanic, I suppose. My two surgeons were amazing and I was off the pain meds within 3 days. At...

Signed on the dotted line this morning to have 3 windows replaced in our place: 2x: 57"x57" single sliders and 1x: 100"x57" 1/4-1/2-1/4 double slider. I probably should have asked around first, but how does this sound: $11.5k OTD price includes the triple-pane, argon filled, low-e windows with...

This past Saturday I was plopped in front of my 6 month old Sony OLED when, out of the blue, the display turned powered down followed by 5 red blinks from the LED. BUMMER! A quick Google confirmed the worst: 5 blinks is a TCON error (power board). For reference, the set was manufactured December...

I'm doing my best to learn the world of carburators, so bear with me. These plugs came out of our newly acquired 1979 Cadillac Deville with a freshly rebuilt, bone stock 425 that's fed by an Edelbrock 1406 carb. From what I've read, the 1406 is a 600 CFM "economy" minded carb, which should be...

I think it's money we'll spent. Useless accessory aspect aside, I DID need a 2nd set of keys regardless. If I was already going through the trouble, why not do it with some style! Yes... They're gold plated 😎

Dirt work was completed Wednesday evening, and the delivery driver called this afternoon to do the drop. Both did an amazing job, the pad is perfectly level with just the right slope. The shed is a pre-fab 10' x 24' with twin 6' deep lofts inside. Barn doors on the north and east sides along...

I was wandering around WM on my lunch break today and decided to check and see if the ST9018's had changed to the new style media, as shown in this thread: New Toyota ST9972 It looks like they have! ST on the left, Fram XG9018 on the right. For $2.97, I think the ST will do just fine for...

For those who don't know: I'm an auto mechanic by trade and been the family's exclusive mechanic for over 20 years. Last year I moved a little over an hour away, making emergency repairs impossible and basic repairs inconvenient. My mother owns a very well taken care of but higher mileage 2010...

Well, it happened. I finally own a true "classic". I found this beautiful, 89k miles example on Marketplace a couple weeks ago and I just couldn't help myself. It's far from perfect, but I got a TON for my money: less than 3k miles on its rebuilt 425, new carb, new heater core, all new belts...

My old Harman Kardon Onyx (Version 1!) bluetooth speaker finally bit the dust, and I didn't really feel like dropping much coin on something new, so I dug around and put this together: I ordered a Kinter brand 2.1 Bluetooth amp on Amazon for $40 and paired it with a Paradigm Studio CC and an...
