Well... I currently work at the Port of Los Angeles / Long Beach... the problems are not a singular issue but a combination of many small problems.... as I see them.... 1. The ILWU... the typical casual longshoreman is hard working and reliable... once they get full time they...

Guy never got back to me so I assume someone hopped on it almost immediately

I just emailed the guy to see if it is possible to view the car this weekend --- would be a nice project.

Well I got an offer on our house I am renting back in MD --- we bought it for $275K back in 2017 and it is a nothing special house. We just refinanced to 2.25% and our monthly is $1534 (we put $0 down) and we are renting it for $2400 a month... We just got an offer of $390K for the house...

I had numerous offers on my Charger years ago for 3X what I had bought it for... YES they sell for big dollars elsewhere... Personally, it doesn't bother me...

I am aware - I suppose I was trying to make a point about the lesser of two evils. I'd support a company who employs Americans over where their company headquarters is located. Toyota has world-wide production because of their reliability and known products. You see way more Toyotas around the...

Well a buddy of mine and I used to go to the yards here in SoCal and it only made sense to buy certain things... We scored numerous big blocks from there over the years... (like 7 of them - all 440s) and we would go during one of those 50% of days (usually federal holidays) and scored...

Congrats on the Cooper.... my wife is over in the UK and when I go to visit her I see those little buggers EVERYWHERE. I told my wife I may just buy one for the economic around town fun... she wants a Tesla instead (Sh!t...$$$). But I did get to bomb around in a Cooper I borrowed from...

318ci was standard on the Polara 500 - could option up from there... Mine got a 383-2 upgrade

Agreed - its a not a traditional vehicle used for "truck duties" but for the average urbanites who don't need or want a big 2500 Ram or 3500 Silverado... it is a good concept. Sometimes people just need a small open bed for routine putting around areas. For all the people complaining about...

Why do you think Saudis are financing electric vehicles... the world is going electric sooner or later... so they want in... As far as Tesla goes - can't blame Musk for taking advantage of government money that is being offered... if the government stopped funding of private...

I told my machinist I wasn't in a hurry with my latest 440... he had it back to me in 3 months --- we gotta know the story here

Yeah... that's a bad day for sure. Apparently the ammonium nitrate was confiscated years ago through a customs inspection and just stored in a warehouse all this time... crazy - I've seen some big booms overseas in the sandbox by that was crazy

Spiders also hate citric fruits... so oranges and the like can help keep them away

Dude... USPS lost one of my leaf springs... a LEAF SPRING.... my USPS is actually very reliable and timely where I'm at - I try to use them over UPS and FedEx when possible - especially sending APO stuff
