Anyone have a good used Ford I6 300?
Had one of those that finally died, or so I thought. Sold it as-is and the guy put a new timing gear on it and drove it for another 100k. Had no idea those things had composite cam gears. -
I like some Porsche (certainly over the Corvette) Own one?
I have never owned either. But, I did the Porsche driving experience this past fall in a 911s. I walked away with nothing but respect for that machine. -
Hybrid Electric
I used to have a 5.7 Hemi Jeep Grand Cherokee AWD and it’s the only vehicle I’ve ever owned that I believe you had to give it gas to go downhill. I’ve been looking into keeping my paid for 4Runner and getting one of the Lexus RX hybrids. I think it gets about 2x the mileage of my truck right... -
Hybrid Electric
When I sold my last Jeep Wrangler it had almost 200k on it. 285k on my old Cherokee. -
Hybrid Electric
Lol. Yeah, we looked at the Ford, but she said it was ugly and the resale value sucked. -
Hybrid Electric
My 4Runner will get 18mpg if I baby it. I feel your pain, but if I drive any meaningful distance it’s for work and I get mileage reimbursed, so I’m not that worried about it. -
Hybrid Electric
She really wanted the Prime model, but every one we found was a XE model or lower. We got the SXE fully loaded and it’s pretty cool. The way we looked at it was they wanted $10k more for the plug in model and it goes 43 miles on a full charge. With her getting almost that per gallon and a... -
Hybrid Electric
I bought my wife a RAV4 Hybrid for Christmas, we found a couple Prime models, but they were few and far between. It’s been getting 42mpg. -
A very good read.
Per the internets, a 747 burns 18,000gal on a typical 5hr flight. I’m guessing he is referring to consumption at take off? https://simpleflying.com/jet-aircraft-fuel-consumption/ -
F-100 Rebuild
A little timing adjustment and I think she is running better. Not bad for an engine that spent 30 years in a garage corner. -
F-100 Rebuild
Well, ores been a while, we have moved, I changed jobs, and life stuff, but finally got around to firing it up. Kept it short as my neighbor is elderly and probably would not appreciate the open headers at almost 10pm… -
First Rivian R1T truck hits the road....1st truck rolls off the assembly line
I hear all the hubbub, but I drive maybe 15-20 miles a day on average. I may double it as we do the partial “return to the office” nonsense, but that is even likely short lived with whatever new blah-blah variant might be out there. I think the range will work for me, without doubt. Sure... -
First Rivian R1T truck hits the road....1st truck rolls off the assembly line
Lol. Less moving parts the better I guess. I switched from domestic to Toyota a while back so I didn’t have to deal with shotty UAW work. You may be right, it could be a bad move… We were planning on a new Tesla for the wife. That tax credit tho! Maybe it’s time to reconsider, maybe a Mach... -

Nice! I have my eye on one of the new electric F-150’s -

How in the HAIL is a new Jeep worth $80,000.00??
Maybe it’s worth half of that, but the dollar is worth half as much? -
Any Tesla or Electric car owners here?
We were camping at Steven Foster in the Okefenokee and the guy across from us had a Tesla plugged into the RV outlet with a kayak on the roof. Noticed he had a Fulton tag and asked him about the car, charging, etc. He said he stops in Tifton at a supercharging station on his way down and eats... -
Jeep Wrangler gear swap
I just discussed this with a buddy of mine and it seems the price for this can be substantial. I remember back in the day when it was $400/axle, but that was gears and labor only. What axles do you have? Depending on the axle and your current gear ratio, the carrier may need to be swapped as... -

Redacted
This is exactly how I bought my 4Runner. I used the build function on the Toyota website then saved the build sheet and emailed it to all of the internet sales managers at Toyota dealershipS across metro Atlanta. I asked for out the door pricing and World Toyota beat everyone. Of course they...
