    Car salesmen......Talk to me!!!

    Okay, I'll try to make this short. Currently I am in wireless sales, have been for about 3 years total. I consider myself to be pretty good, almost always #1 or #2 at my location, very rarely miss goals and make very good money (Some in my company are surpassing $60K). My question for any car...

    Let’s talk about oil for a Volkswagen

    Afternoon everyone. I’ve owned my 2015 Jetta SE (1.8T) for about a year and a half. Initially, I used Mobil 1 Euro 0w40 from Walmart since it was easy to get. I realize, however, that it doesn’t seem to meet all VW specs for newer vehicles (unless I’m missing something. More recently I’ve been...

    Pool Players - Need cue suggestions

    Hey all, so over the course of the last year I've become a pretty avid pool player, my friends and I typically play 2-4 times a week. At first I used the cue's provided by our pool hall.

    Help me find a transmission!

    Hey guys, in case I never posted, my 2004 F150’s transmission decided it didn’t wanna go to work anymore about 6 months ago. I’ve had it for sale on and off, but I’ve ultimately decided to keep it, as putting a new transmission in it will be a ton cheaper then looking for another decent truck...

    AR15 painting question

    Hey all, recently purchased a S&W M&P Sport 2 from a friend of my fathers, and he was the original owner. He has the rifle painted with some sort of camo, not sure if it was a spray can or what.
