    Car alarm going off randomly

    This happened again last night and for some reason, it only seems to happen in the wee hours of the morning. The alarm on my 2019 F250 will go off randomly. I say random, but there is one thing in common. It only happens when there are temperature changes or it gets cold out. Since I live in...

    My First Weld

    A couple months ago, my Father-in-law gave me his old welder. I hadn't had a need for it until this weekend when I was installing a crankcase evac system in my car. This required some welding to the header collectors. Since this would not be visible, structural, or in any way need to be...

    Motortrend Channel

    Turned on the TV this morning while eating breakfast and noticed the motortrend channel is gone. Yeah, not a lot of new programming, but it's a good time-kill for 15 minutes before work and I enjoy the reruns of Roadkill, Engine Masters and Hot Rod Garage. Is it just my carrier that dropped it...

    Worrell 1000

    Started this morning. I am sure this event will be news to most on this forum, but this is one of the most insane sailboat races in existence. Take an 18ft beach cat and sail it from Ft Lauderdale FL, to Virginia Beach VA. 11 legs of about 100 miles each day. The race started in the 70's and...

    Rural Area Internet

    My wife and I are considering moving to a rural area that is not serviced by cable tv/internet, so satellite seems to be the only option. My wife works from some so reliable fast internet is a requirement. For those that live in rural settings and are using satellite internet, what are your...

    Help with my truck

    Enough smart people here so why not ask.....I have a 2019 Ford F-250 with a powerstroke in it. Approx 40,000 miles. Just recently it has developed an issue where after sitting for over 4-5 hours, it won't start and will require a jump. I took the truck to a local autozone and they tested the...

    Kramer Automotive

    I am not one to bash companies online, so that is not what I am going to do here. I am simply going to go over the details of my (attempted) purchase. Back in late March, I called to order a kickdown rod for a crossram intake. I was told that they had these in stock, but I had a question...

    Idiots ruining car meets

    I am not a big fan of going to car shows. I much prefer cars and coffee type events....show up in the morning, hang out for an hour and then head home. In the Tampa area, DuPont held a great event for a lot of years. Unfortunately, they stopped when Covid hit, then sold their property and the...

    Trailer floor protection

    I picked up a new 24' enclosed car trailer. It currently has a bare plywood floor. I would like to put something on it to protect it. I saw a few youtube videos or people using a rustoleom epoxy floor coating but some commented that it would not last due to the rigidity of the epoxy vs the...

    Hand Tools

    I have been using the same set of sockets and ratchets for probably the past 35 years. These tools are a menagerie of pieces that I picked up as I needed over time, all are off brand cheepy stuff, some still have markings on them from the tool boxes that I "borrowed" them from while I was in...

    Trailer Recommendations

    I am looking to purchase a car hauler for transporting my car around to tracks and events that are too far to drive it to. I am looking at either a 18' open trailer or a 20' enclosed trailer. My fear with the enclosed trailer is that it will be too much for my truck, but am not too keen on...

    How much trouble is NHRA in

    With Coke pulling their sponsorship, where does that leave NHRA. They have already drastically reduced prize money. John Force Racing is out (at least for this season). Are dark clouds building or can NHRA find a way out of this???
