Don't know if this has ever been posted before on here. Found it today while looking at old auto commercials. Interesting to see some of the things they were working on that eventually came to fruition. Figured I would post it here for your entertainment. Enjoy!

Just purchased a 2022 Dodge Charger SXT with the 3.6L V6. 45 miles on the ODO. Good power, easy on fuel. Any issues to be aware of in the future? It's the first "muscle car" I've ever owned (I use that term loosely, mind you.) I've heard that the 3.6 is a very good engine. Figure keeping 5-20 in...

Traded in my F-150 a couple days ago for a 2018 Dodge Ram 4x2 with the Tradesman trim. Basically, no fancy electronics or hoopty-dos in it. 5.7L Hemi with 74,000 miles. Anyone have experience with this particular ride? It's in great shape. Smooth driving. Tonneau bed cover, towing hitch. Great...

Just traded in the '16 Nissan Altima (95,000 miles) for a 2011 Escape with just over 62K on the V6. It's an XLT package w/AWD. Well taken care of. Paid just under $11,000 for it, including a 3yr./36K warranty. Anything I should be concerned about or watch out for? Seems like a decent little...

As most here know, I bought a used 2016 Nissan Altima with under 77,000 miles on it 2 weeks ago. Had the key fob issue last week, which was fixed. Just took a trip from the Tri-Cities area, through Portland, and up to Bremerton, WA. Going into Bremerton, the CVT went into "limp mode" just a mile...

Just traded in the '95 Cougar for a 2016 Nissan Altima at Lithia Dodge in Kennewick, WA. Has 76,000 miles on the 4-banger, but, runs smooth, shifts well, and looks brand new. Also have a warranty & lifetime synthetic oil changes for it. They use Pennzoil synthetic at the dealers. It's run...

Decided the cost, and possible destruction, of the engine in my '08 Taurus (due to the internal water pump) wasn't worth the stress. So, I traded it in yesterday for a clean 1995 Mercury Cougar XR7 with under 58,000 miles on it. Previous owner had oil changed every 2000-4000 miles, but, only...

Anyone have experience with one of these? Due to having to move back to my father's home to take care of him, I had to downsize my vehicle harem, which included getting something he could get in & out of easily. So, I traded in my Tahoe and my 300ZX for a an '08 Taurus Limited AWD. Very well...

I'm not a "Ford guy", but, I just purchased a 2005 Eddie Bauer Explorer 4x4 with the 4.0L V6, from a local Toyota dealership. 167,659 miles, but, looks well taken care of. Has all the bells & whistles, 3rd row seat, dual climate control, Auto 4WD, etc. Any issues to look out for or check on...

Evening, folks! Quick question.... I've just purchased a 1990 Nissan 300ZX with the NA (non-turbo) 6 cylinder engine. It has just under 78,000 miles on it, and has been driven very rarely in the last year or so, since it's last oil change. After a test drive, I checked the oil and it was a...

Any of you Gearheads have any experience with Peak Synthetic motor oil? Was on the NAPA website looking at parts for the H3, and decided to check their oil prices. Noticed Peak Full Syn was on sale for $0.99 a quart. At that price, I decided to order 7 quarts for my next oil change. Was just...

Hello all! I have a question about the oil in a particular engine/vehicle. I'm looking into purchasing a 2007 Hummer H3, with the 3.7L I5 engine & Auto, from my Mother-In-Law. Has 95,700 miles on it, and seems to be taken care of pretty well. Runs & drives fine, just hasn't had a lot of use...
