    your favorite breakfast cereal?

    So is Marmite the NZ version of Vegemite ? I guess they're both waste products of beer so do they taste the same?

    the daily rant

    My bitch for the day is "Stupid People and Voicemail" I make plenty of calls at work, many getting the usual message "please leave me a detailed message and I'll get back to you....etc" Ok, so I leave a fully detailed message explaining whatever the hell it is I called them for. Seven seconds...

    your favorite breakfast cereal?

    Not to drift the thread toooo far, but seeing the Aussie post above makes me need to ask if anybody there actually eats vegemite? My niece brought me back a jar of Kraft Vegemite....my GOD is that some nasty tasting #$%^ !!!! How the hell anybody eats it is a mystery .

    Bendpak MD6XP lift….anyone use one under a B body?

    Raised the Jeep maybe 30 inches to pull the rear springs and change out my failing rubber cheap lift spacers. It's always seemed solid sitting on level concrete.

    Bendpak MD6XP lift….anyone use one under a B body?

    I have one that I bought primarily to use at my shop for lifting garden tractors and zero turn mowers and made some needed mods for that. When I use it on cars I pull it out into the concrete driveway with my fork truck....don't have the ceiling height inside the shop to get much lift with say...

    Classic Cars and Cell Phones Don't Mix Well

    I've been with Hagerty for years. Only had 1 claim with them for damage to my old 928 Porsche. It was hit in a parking lot pretty good shot in the passenger door and front fender. No way to know who/what hit it. There was a shop at the time that specialized in Euro cars ( and not cheap...

    How to total a Ford Raptor

    I'll post a car jumping story.... Many years ago a friend who due to being injured himself asked me to drive his Opel GT rally car and he would be navigator. Having some off road and plenty of open class MX I agreed. We had went out on the backroads and spent some hours allowing me to get used...

    WTF is it with Subaru Drivers?

    A few months ago I found the solution for people clogging up the left lane...well here in Michigan anyway. Roll up behind them.... turn signals not used in ages come on and the traffic parts....it's almost magic. I suspect the trick only works in Michigan.

    Used Police cars ???

    Do you wrench on the Chargers I was asking about? If so any model specific stuff that always dies.

    Used Police cars ???

    Yes, live in Michigan and have front, rear and AWD stuff. Plus a Jeep TJ...AWD is just nicer in some kinds of crap. To be truthful I don't even need another car but if I get one of these it'll be AWD.

    Used Police cars ???

    Yes and also total hours.

    Used Police cars ???

    Yes, I've seen some with huge hours but low mileage. Seen some with 90K miles, yet 10,000 hours. As a comparison our shop service trucks with mostly local driving have similar miles but closer to 3000 hours run time.

    Used Police cars ???

    Been half way thinking of getting a ex-police Charger. Looking at 2019 -2020 with the 5.7 and AWD. seeing them in the $18,000 to $21,000 range with 50-80K miles. Being honest not really sure why, but it won't be an every day driver, maybe call it an advanced all weather/purpose beater? Anybody...
