    Run Flat Tires..Yes or No?

    I think my message has been taken the wrong way. No I'm not an expert and I'm not challenging your ways at all. I'm not saying your ways are bad and I'm definitely not bitching. I am simply saying what experiences I've had with tow trucks and jacks and difficulties that may arise from them. I...

    Run Flat Tires..Yes or No?

    For me it's a no brainer it's going to take me about 45 minutes to raise the car, remove the wheel, put a plug in the tire and inflate, put things away and continue enjoying my trip. If I call a towing, I'll be waiting an hour an a half or more on the side of the road and when he shows up it's...

    Floor jacks

    The Princess Auto looks okay but it doesn't have a long profile reach if you need to go deep under a car some some reason. Depends on how much versatility you want from a jack. The one at CT raises 5" higher and that's very important for me to raise it when you need to go underneath. The one at...

    C8 Extended Warranty - is it worth getting

    Noooooo! On special holidays when people are usually gone away like for example Christmas day when I visit my GF's family I take my work van to their house. If I go on a 4-5 day trip I bring my work van to my GF's condo and park it there. A lot safer! Now this next summer with the vette and...

    C8 Extended Warranty - is it worth getting

    I have no plans on how long I want to keep it. I usually am the second last owner of vehicles I buy, when I sell them they are usually really really on it's last leg. It would be tough to trade in for a C8 in like 5-6 years. It might be impossible to do trips with so little luggage space. I plan...

    Thoughts of the Day

    I ordered 2 die casts over a week ago, still waiting for the Maisto from Italy to show up. The other is from china so it won't be for another 1-2 months. I can't wait to paint the exterior black and the interior red on the Maisto. However trying to find model paint isn't like back then where...

    Run Flat Tires..Yes or No?

    Yes I understood that. It's not easy to replace a tire on the side of the road. On my trucks I drop the spare every year to test out the device as they tend to seize in rust and shoot some rust proofing in the opening and lube the cable. I also spray the spare rim with rubberized undercoating to...

    Tail Lights

    Lots of people make a ton of money on utube. Most of the guys who make those daily videos of supercars amassed them from just being watched by fans. I just don't understand how all that money is raked in.

    Run Flat Tires..Yes or No?

    For those who are going to read this this is my opinion and experience at normal speeds. On all the tires I put plugs in they were good till I sold them years later. I never drove on a flat tire so I know it was just a matter of pulling the screw out. I never brought a tire for a garage to put...
