...of the car. Please, not of the tranny flush!

TBH, unless you're tracking the car or are simply want to pay the $$$ for "lighter weight bragging rights" at your Saturday coffee and cars, the correct sized lead-acid or AGM battery from (gasp!) Walmart is worth considering. Their "EverStart Maxx" batteries are manufactured by ...

My recommendations for what to get: A nail gun specifically for finishing nails. Something that'll handle up to 2" nails, either 18 gauge or 16 gauge, will be fine. All of my nail guns are Porter Cable pneumatics. Plenty of the correct length and gauge nails. For trim work you'll want at least ...

A few tidbits... The stock US suspension on the '02 C2 Cab delivers a very floaty front end at "fun" speeds (experienced only in carefully managed environments, naturally). Installing the M030 RoW suspension, which lowers the front end 1/2" more than the back end, cured that trait com...

I was told that thing's the subwoofer that goes with one's Apple Airpods...

Fully agree -- new full-size trucks offer practicality, luxury (to a point) and if driven prudently can even be reasonably economical. We picked up a 2019 Ford F-150 with the base 2.7L Ecoboost (turbo) about a year ago. 400+ ft-lbs of torque, 24-25 mpg on the highway, full leather, all of the useful...
