Heyyyy, we're not all bad, I mean A LOT are but not all. Commercial Roofing Estimator/PM here, generally we also HATE the idea of interior finishing going in prior to completion of all exterior waterproofing systems and advice against it. Usually how it happens is a scheduling delay for us...
The IMS bearing issues on 996 and early 997.1 is pretty hyped, similar to 03 Cobra "Head Tick" albeit with an elevated repair cost. They have a number of good fixes or preventative measures that can be done at the same time as a clutch repair which gets you in to a Porsche 911 for not a lot of...
My family always owned Mustangs, I tried to rebel and bought and LT1 F-body....that last 6 months before I, my wallet, and countless ruined dates begged forgiveness and I started buying Mustangs.
Well crap, this auction has two of these dumps with the bodies we want (roofers scissor lift dump) which apparently is rare as all heck I'm finding. Hesitant to fly down for junk, REALLY hesitate to buy without first seeing in person.
Ya, I'm having a real tough time with current Med/Heavy...
I ran soft trifold (trifecta brand) for years on my trucks. No issues but really not the most secure things going.
With my new truck with locking tailgate I wanted something more semi permanent so I got a hard folding and locking MOPAR cover which I was told was a rebranded bakflip.
All I can...
Something else to factor in with Porsche ownership especially RS is the depreciation curve. "Generally" the GT and RS cars fair very well on the secondary market, most holding high residual value. Now the caveat to that is they announced the 991.2 GT3 RS yesterday so I'd hold off buying until...
Anyone aware of a Carfax or similar type site for medium duty trucks? Looking at a couple F650 dumps going up for Auction end of February, trucks are in Florida we're in Canada. Would love to run a VIN check to get any info I can prior to potentially heading down to check the trucks out in...
Ram incentives and discounts are greater, and in a lot of cases they're willing to move product cheaper at less margin to gain market share which theyve been gaining for the last few years at a good clip.
I'm on my third Ram now, had a couple 3rd Gens and now a 16' 1500 Sport. Am already...
Thought I had this resolved, nope.
O2s voltage is cycling, looks normal. MAF readings also look normal. Car's behaving like it has way way too much fuel pressure.
This seemed to start around the time I installed my new corrugated fuel line but can't say it was a 1:1 cause/effect.
Stock 2v fuel system aside from a 340LPH pump in the factory basket. No BAP/modified FPDM. Car is Vortech supercharged, 39lbs injectors and lightning MAF. No changes made to...
Watched it earlier, as stated I like Farahs honesty when it comes to his feels on certain cars. He's mentioned before he's not a big New Edge era fan (during his Mach 1 onetake) but seemed to do the car justice. Owner was a little cringy wanting to gut it but overall not bad at all for someone...
Nothing like a long road trip to force you to sort out any little issues, took mine from Ontario down to Tail of the Dragon and back last summer, brought to light a few areas that needed to be addressed. Was pretty amazing, and most of it is light throttle highway so minimal stress.
Something similar to that happened when I was buying my last truck. After first visit to my local dealer I got an email with incentives for another nearby dealer. All I did was ask the original dealer if they could match the incentive on my deal, they did, so sorta worked counter productive.
I dunno, history has not been kind to people who think Raptors can fly.....
And every time I see the video the OP posted I subliminally see the truck freeze frame mid air and hear "Them duke boys are sure gonna have a hard time getting out of this one"
Most people would see poor welds/cuts and view them as red flags since if the cage cuts were made haphazard who knows about the motor build process (no saying your friend did a bad job, I just know this is where my mind would go).
If the chassis is lower miles and otherwise clean would be...
I thought it was a TT Lambo cj. Either way nothing I own makes enough power to event be relevant in any facet of the event, so I'll continue to live vicariously through the internet.
First off, sorry to hear of your friend.
How many miles are on the chassis? Was it all home built or from a reputable shop? Receipts for all the work in to it? All that will have an impact on the value. Also being so heavily modified do they want to get max value out of it by waiting for the...
