    Why do people use the rear brake?

    I always use both when I'm riding on the street. I primarily use the rear brake for low speed maneuvering in a parking lot, for example.

    “Will It Run?” videos, seem suspicious to me.

    I don't mind them. I sometimes learn a thing or two, and it brings back memories of the mid 1980's when i used to work on junk to drive to high school. Junkyard digs, VGG, etc., all are fun.

    Inexpensive watch recommendations

    While not "inexpensive", any Eco-drive Citizen will last decades without the need for batteries. Get one with sapphire.

    Cracked BFG KO2 after 2 years and 13k miles

    I'm on my second set of KO2's and I've never, ever had this issue. They've always been very durable.

    KYB Strut Plus SUCK

    For what it's worth I've never had good luck with KYB or Monroe quick struts. I've always had to rip them right out due to some component failure. On my Silverado I ended up rebuilding the original struts with Bilstein shocks and I couldnt be happier.

    Best rustproofing options for a new vehicle?

    Ziebart ruined the frame of my Silverado with just one application of that black tar nonsense. All it does is trap moisture and cause more rust, and I fell for their marketing crap. I can't believe you recommend this garbage product when you even say that "Those applications do more harm than...

    400k 2016 Jetta

    I rode in a Lyft near Dayton, Ohio earlier this year and the car I rode in was a Toyota Camry with nearly 500k miles. The interior held up well. I was pretty impressed.

    Lost cost, spray-on rust prevention

    I made the mistake of falling for Ziebarts rustproofing scam. It's a rubberized coating and all it does is trap moisture and destroy everything. My truck frame is now a pile of rust and I've been attempting to fix it ever since I discovered I ruined the frame with their "undercoating" garbage...

    Would you be caught dead on a Honda Grom?

    I would try, but I'm 6'5" and 255 lbs. Probably would be a bit awkward.

    P0307 misfire on 2016 Silverado 5.3

    My girlfriend's '16 Silverado (5.3 engine) has been throwing a P0307 misfire but only above roughly 3500 rpm. Apparently she had to accelerate hard to avoid a collision and it had a noticeable lack of power and a check engine light came on. I scanned it to get the code and clear it, then took it...

    BFG ATKO2 Reviews

    Totally agree. My girlfriend has duratracs and I have KO2's, I can't stand driving her truck. Those Duratracs are just awful.

    Autozone Employees

    The Autozone next to my house is by far the worst place I've ever been to. You could stand there for hours and no one will acknowledge you. The employees have no knowledge or interest in their job or anything automotive, they are just bodies behind the counter. I have to go to O'Reillys to get...

    KYB shocks now garbage

    I can't say I'm a fan of KYB, because I tried a set on the front of my Silverado last year and they were not of good quality. Lots of noise and the ride was terrible. I took them out and installed Bilsteins and the ride was 100% better and there was much less noise. Just my experience.
