    Wanna impress your buddies?

    I'd go $124,500. Not a penny higher.

    PSA - FOR GENERAC OR SIMILAR BRAND GENERATORS

    Thankful my 18K Generac has hydraulic valve adjust. Sold my old BMW motorcycle a few years ago after doing valve adjusts on it for 42 years. That still leaves me two Deere mowers with Kawsaki V twin engines that call for periodic checks of the valve clearance. Adjustment similar to the BMW...

    Motor oil and filters for our cars - I have finally come to my senses and become practical in my old age

    Mobil One and AC Delco filter for my Silverado every 5K miles. Mobil One and Motorcraft filter annually for my Mustang, which doesn't get driven much. I have always used OEM filters on my cars, trucks, motorcycles, and Deere mowers.

    My First Mustang GT

    I'll add mine to the mix. Bought this lightly used on my birthday in 2016 as a retirement gift to myself. Went two states away to get it because I wanted the Gotta Have It Green, only made in 2013 and 2014. The only mod I've made to it is a Roush axle back exhaust.

    Motor Heads, I need help/advice.

    GT convertible all day every day. My 5.0 GT sounds great once I added a Rousch axle back exhaust. You just don't get that sound from a turbo four.

    Best place to live?

    I was born in Indiana, but foolishly moved to Illinois before I was one. Still here. I don't recommend it. BUT....the vast majority of this state (as measured by counties) is conservative. Unfortunately we are canceled out at the ballot by Chicago, ruining an otherwise good place.

    Pre Mixed 2 Cycle Fuel

    I started using VP Racing premix canned fuel in my larger Stihl chain saw because I use it infrequently. Still using my own mix in my top handle Stihl saw I use regularly. I just decided to use the VP in my Stihl blower vacuum. Had to work on it this week and decided it's worth the $$$ to...

    Questions about buying from Enterprise Car sales

    I rented a lot of cars on business travel and never abused them. I was partial to Impala's. The local rental agency knew that and would hold one for me when possible. But I also remember the old adage " nothing handles like a rental car".

    Non-Ethanol Gasoline

    I use ethanol free in all my lawn and garden stuff, four stroke and two strokes. And I go through quite a bit. Just filled four of my 5 gallon cans today, plus my girlfriends 5 gallon can. My Deere lawn tractor is 33 years old, and my Deere commercial ZTR is 21 years old. Knock on wood...

    As if Harleys weren't annoying enough...

    Stock exhaust on my Road King and no radio. Never had a radio on a bike. I like loud pipes OK, on Harleys and cars, but find ultra loud radios annoying.

    .22 wheel gun with a decent da trigger?

    I had T K Customs do an action job on my 617. The trigger pull is excellent. Smooth as silk. I don't have a gauge so can't tell you the weight.

    Any NBA fans out there?

    I lost interest in the NBA when Jordan retired. The pro game has morphed into something that has no appeal to me at all. I do still enjoy college basketball. Have season tickets to my local D1 alma mater. Also like high school ball, and even take in a few grade school games each year. Off...

    Scammer got me Friday.

    The total cost sounds very reasonable to me. If I were him I would have rolled the $25 gas charge into the service call charge. A plumber right down the road from me charges $100 to just come look at your problem, then an additional $100 per hour to fix it. (His rates have probably gone up -...
