I have a problem staying out of motorcycle dealers showrooms these days. I been watching Euro online reviews of the new Triumph Speed 400 and this bike interest me for a garage mate to my BMW R1250 GSA. I have come to love the GSA but riding around on the big and heavy bike as a daily takes its...

It seems these places are being built on every corner in my area. They seem to be all three stories with glass facades. I can only imagine what the monthly rates are in these new palaces. I guess storing people’s junk is big business and profitable these days.

Great price on this motorcycle oil. $7.99 a quart. Amazon changes these prices daily, so grab it before it goes back up to $65.00

I use to buy Coast soap in the past until my local Kroger owned chain stopped carrying it. I was at Walmart and saw it there, so I bought it. It was an eight pack and was in individual boxes. I opened the first one and got the biggest laugh, talk about shrinkflation. The new bar was the size of...

I need moly paste for my BMW R1250 driveshaft splines. This stuff is priced like platinum and the cheapest I could find for a small tube of the Castrol stuff was $25. I‘m looking for at least 60% molybdenum disulphide. The new Honda M77 only has 40% and the Yamaha stuff has less than 10%. The...

The most I ever paid to watch a pro sports team in person was $100 a seat. I use to drive up to Vancouver to watch the Canucks. These seats were right on the glass and were $200 CAD back then. With the exchange rate at the time getting you half off everything in Canada, it was a win win...

You think the Army would be doing this and not the Navy? The Navy and Air Force were the two branches that always got the brightest recruits. Cooks wanted, apply within.

Moto Morini has come back to the US market. They are owned by a Chinese company, the bikes are designed in Italy and produced in China. They’re using a older Kawasaki 649cc engine made my CF Moto. They have Brembo brakes, Bosch ABS and ECU, Marzocchi forks, KYB shocks, Pirelli tires, tubeless...

My local Mazda dealer has this 2023 MX-5 for $3500 off MSRP.

I placed an order for a 2023 Ford Maverick back in August 2022 through a large dealership in Kansas. This dealership advertises on the Maverick forums. They didn’t require a deposit for the order. They received close to 800 orders before the ordering books closed within a few weeks. By this...

I’m a few weeks away from my one year anniversary with my GSA. BMW calls for a brake fluid flush at year one and every two years after that. I called my local dealer and was quoted $215.00. Yeah, I’m not paying that. I grabbed a $7.95 bottle of DOT 4 from my local Vatozone and did it myself. I...

I go food shopping every week and have to hear the cashier ask me if I want to round up for the local food bank. This week it was a $10 donation. I say no and they always try to make you feel bad about saying no. If I want to donate to a cause, I will do it on my accord and not through some...

I was leaving my neighborhood yesterday and noticed some lowlife dumped two mattresses on two different properties leading out to the main road. Who is responsible to get rid of these mattresses? Can you call the city and they will take care of it or are you crap out of luck and you have to...

It’s sad another one of these impressive hangars was destroyed. One of the two blimp hangars in Tillamook Oregon was destroyed by a fire in 1992. The other one is an air museum and it’s a sight to see. Two other blimp hangars are at Moffett Field in the bay area. I don’t know if the east coast...

These old farts just don’t know when to hang it up. How many ”LAST” tours have they had over the years? These types of people have to be in headlines until the day they die. They could’ve just retired with all the money they made since the 70’s and live a quiet peaceful life. This casino has a...

One of my local VW dealers have 94 ID.4’s on their lot. They have them marked down $4,000 right now. Add that to the $9250 lease cash VW will give you, you’re looking mid 30’s for the cap cost on a Pro AWD with a MSRP of $49K. VW has their sign and drive event going on now until the end of the...

I was communicating with a Mitsubishi dealer in the next State over about buying a Mirage. I’m looking at the SE trim and they are hard to find. This dealer gets 4.8 google stars on reviews, take that with a grain a salt. They sell their cars with no ADM or dealer installed accessories so they...

I know having piano black plastic inside cars has been a trend the last 10 years. Now manufacturers are putting gloss black on the outside of cars such as fender trims and bumpers. I was browsing Mazda 3 sedans on Carmax and wasn’t surprised to see these less then three year old cars piano black...
