    Parking far away

    You know it never fails, I am out of town and no matter how far away I park from everyone else when I come outside vehicles are around me. I can’t even make it up. I literally make my family walk a mile to get in the store so that no one will park around me and door ding my car, but it never...

    WeatherTech products

    I must say I have always been impressed with this quality. I first bought a pair of their wildly renowned floor mats back in 2010 for a vehicle. They held up nicely and kept the dirt/snow for the floor. I tried a knock off brand in another vehicle years ago and they just weren’t the same. They...

    The ultimate off road vehicle, the Ford Model T

    I have been wanting to post this for awhile. The model T is even better than modern 4x4s. I have seen old photos of pioneers driving them through the hills and always wondered how they got up there on such thin tires.

    Aftermarket oil dipstick

    I saw a post about people complaining about how hard it is to read some factor oil dipsticks. I have to agree, even mine you have to hit directly in a flashlight or sunlight, especially when your oil is fresh and translucent. I saw this photo of a knurled design and I thought it was a great idea...

    2026 Toyota RAV4

    Looks like the new Rav from Toyota now only come in a hybrid wether you like it or not. Not a smart move if you ask me, not everyone is wanting to be forced to hybrid or electric technology. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a64704544/2026-toyota-rav4-revealed/

    Mistubshi Outlander

    So we currently have a rental car while our Subaru that got ran into is getting fixed. My wife picked it out and she had a few options to choose from and this was the only third row that they had. At first I thought it was ugly, reminded me of the new KIA looks. Honestly I didn't even know...

    Subaru’s pedestrian airbag

    I had no clue that most modern Subaru’s have an airbag for pedestrians. I guess this is cool and all, but why should I be protecting someone walking in front of me? Like I said I appreciate the concern, but I am sure that this is worked into the vehicle cost as well. Strange part is I can’t tell...

    Automated vehicle floor vacuums

    I had a dream about these the other night. Basically on 3 sides of the driver's seat and three sides of the passenger's seat, along with the rear seat's entire bottom length and sides, you would have some thin meshed slots. These would be tied into duct work that runs down the center column...

    A modern vehicle without all the modern tech

    I felt like creating this post since in the last few days I have had two different people talk about this. Why can't a modern-day automobile company produce a truck that has no computer technology to it? While modern day comforts are nice such as adaptive cruise control, heated seats, power...

    The era of the AMC Eagle car

    Does anyone remember back in the 80s/90s when these cars where everywhere? it was basically a stationwagon on a truck frame. It seemed like people liked them and they had 4x4 capibilities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AMC_Eagle

    Toyota Hilux

    This truck is known to take a beating, but you are not allowed to purchase it in the United States since it’s banned.

    The American car companies better step up their game. Something like this would kill off Jeep here.

    Vehicle self-inflating and deflating tire system

    So since newer vehicles have tire monitoring systems, and small compressors are a thing these days, why can't they have a system in cars that you and program to your PSI liking and it will inflate or deflate the tire to the programed PSI? I know Hummers had this feature I used it once in one. It...

    2025 Subaru Forester

    Here are some leaked images of the new 2025 Subaru Forester. It looks like they went for the new CRV or Jeep Cherokee look. More squared. https://imgur.io/a/Y7BZq9t

    What was your first vehicle?

    I thought this would be fun to talk about our very first vehicles. I'll start off. My first vehicle was a 48 Chevy truck. I would have to go out before school, pull the choke and get it going to take me and my siter to school in. The second and the first vehicle I purchased with my first loan...

    What kind of pain scuff mark is this?

    In the picture below, what kind of mark is this in the vehicle paint?  I commonly see it.  Is it a clear coat scratch/scuff?   It's flat and smooth and doesn't come out with rubbing alcohol or acetone. For some reason can't find anything on the internet. How do you fix it?
