High mileage 2002 Lexus LX470. 309.5k on the clock. Cheap-O Chevron Supreme Semi-Syn 4500 miles. Mostly short tripped by my student. Looks like the 4.7 will live to see another day.

The tire is a bit aggressive, but at $219 per tire, I ordered and will store them in the shed until next fall. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Yokohama-Geolandar-M-T-G003-LT285-70R17-121Q/391703528

Temps are pushing into the low 50s here in Western CO. There is something very therapeutic about washing up a vehicle in the driveway.

May we not forget. On Sunday morning, December 7, 1941, the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service attacked the neutral United States at Naval Station Pearl Harbor near Honolulu, Hawaii, killing 2,403 Americans and injuring 1,178 others. The attack sank four U.S. Navy battleships and damaged four...

Can anyone ID this vehicle? Helping out a friend with a photo album. This is her husband as a young man before cancer got him.

The mother ship (2013 Toyota Venza awd) needs new summer shoes. We bolt on Blizzaks for the winter. The existing Goodyear Eagle RSA are 80% worn, but have gotten REALLY noisy and rough riding. On a budget, as we have a wedding coming up. Can anyone talk me out of Mastercraft LSR Grand...

I half heartedly started looking for a new student car for my 16 year old son this week. Found the fabled Grandma's car on Craigslist! 2003 Buick LeSabre, one owner, dealer maintained with only 62k miles on it. I pounced on it like a fat kid on a Snickers bar. The interior could pass for...

The 2004 Toyota Avalon has started rattling in the rear end. Which replacement part exactly is this? The bushings are shot on both drivers and passenger side. Picture is the drivers side rear knuckle, front of car to the right of the picture. Thanks

I've never owned a Mopar, but there is some attractive pricing on the 2020 2500s gas engines right now. 10 years ago or so, they were plagued with fragile front ends. Did that get fixed or is still an issue? Looking for opinions on current Ram 2500s with the gas engine/8 speed trans...

My son is likely buying a 2001 Toyota Landcruiser. It appears to be in excellent shape with the exception of the leather seats. They are dried up and split at many seams. What recommendations for good quality, snug-fitting covers do you all have?

The Avalon's transmission is shot at 155k, in spite of services at 50k intervals. It happens.... It's too nice of a car to scrap out, so here are our options. A- $2800 trans shop installs reman, 3 year, 36k mile warranty B- $2200 local independent shop pulls the tranny and rebuilds it...

Would an Acura with a 3.5 V6 that burns a quart of oil every 500 miles be considered "excessive"? Mileage is 180k. What say you?

This is more a vent post than anything else. I've pampered my 2002 GMC Sierra 2500, 6.0 with 4L80 trans with trans drain and fills every 15k miles. Yesterday with 148k on the clock, the trans grenaded. Climbing a steep, rocky road the trans temperature spiked to 220, followed by grinding...

Looking to get my favorite daughter a college car. Needs to be reliable, sub $5k, etc. I'm considering an '06 Hyundai Azera. Low miles, maintenance history, one owner. It has more options than we're looking for, but it's attractive. I've never owned a Hyundai. Any feedback is welcome.
