I have a tree farm and it used to be fairly remote. I always pack when I'm up there. I used to have trouble with meth labs as it is extremely remote but still close to a bad section of town. Meth heads will shoot or cut you as soon as look at you. Now, all the rich people are building houses up...

Nope. The area past the end of the frame is longer than the frame under the sign. It looked like the frame broke underneath the cab. They just drove around slow in traffic. They had to be careful going around corners. With the end sticking so far back and all the weight pulling UP on the front...

There has been a company driving around town with Ford Ranger cab and chassis equipped with large bill boards. I haven't seen them for a while. I think I know why.

Elon is definitely backing out of the Twitter deal. Now it goes to the courts. The court it's going to is one that handles a lot of rich peoples cases. Probably the worst one for his case as the judge doesn't care about how rich you are. It's be in the Delaware Chancery court. “Having mounted...

I went through Atlanta airport today. When I went through Dallas/Fort Worth, prices were a bit steep but not too bad. I understand that. Atlanta, when I went through, about half the stores in the Concourse were closed. NONE of the ones open would take cash. Credit or Debit cards only. Plus, I...

I just got in from a convention in Sparks Nevada. Gas is $4.59 here but it was $5.69 in Reno/Sparks.

Well, when I was younger, I wasn't a paragon of virtue myself, so, I don't judge. 😎

Gasp!!! What have you been doing that you need to be tested????

Went over to Kentucky today and filled up. Gas ranged between $4.79 and $4.89 locally for regular. I burned about 1/2 a gallon. Saved about $9.

I just wonder who's going to pay the road taxes in the future? Most of it is paid for by a tax on fuel. That's fine, I use the roads, I'll pay my share. Why am I paying for someone who can afford a really pricey EV? A few months back, there was a show about going cross country in several EV's...

I have a strong Scottish ancestry so I'm naturally chea...er...thrifty anyway. Before, it was a toss up for the lower prices but longer drive to get fuel. My car gets 27-32 mpg so the new tax structure means it's now cost effective to go the extra 10 miles.

I'm the same way. I had to watch the Jeep at the beginning twice to make sure he didn't have a seat belt. Back when I raced, there would be guys who would show off like that. That was fine with us. I did an open road rally once and the one car (of three in the class) was showing off big time...

As of today, Indiana raised it's gasoline tax by 5 cents. It also has a 7% sales tax on it so with gas going up, the taxes have been going up too. Looks like I'll be heading across the river more often.

Here are some more jumps. A little of this and a little of that. Some stick the landing and others, not so much. One Jeep owner early on learns what seat belts are for.

Saw regular for $4.49 today. Over in Illinois, the oil tanks were full but when oil got up there, they shipped it out. So, oil is showing up and starting to press prices down, a bit. I don't look for a major drop any time soon.

I've never seen any benefit to octane boosters. When I used to race, we would mix Aviation gas with 93 octane 50/50 for the car. It was cheaper than race fuel, which often wasn't available at smaller tracks. Contrary to popular belief at the time, you do NOT run Av gas in your street engine...

I've seen guys do similar jumps. Once or twice, no problem. When you make a habit, even if you beef the suspension up some, bad things can happen. A friend did it one time too many. His truck was in good shape, great suspension, no visible cracks in the frame and so on. He jumped once, not as...

Putin seems to be running out of Generals.

With that many miles, the oil has been changed regularly. These engines tend to sludge. It's the design on the PCV system. Where I used to work, one of the guards had an '03 with a major rattle from the engine and the salvage yard offered him $300 for it. I offered him $500 as I figured I could...
