As I said……. Just wanted to get it straight. You could have said all that in the first place.

Let me get this straight………… You ordered one. They sent you four. You sent back two. (Keeping two) And you call that “The right thing”?

Gotta have a VERY SPECIAL woman for that! God bless her!

Don’t remember who makes them (search the site), but someone makes stick on filters for the lower front amber lights. See my avatar. Lights on……….amber shows. Lights of………..shows dark.

Back in the day……… This is exactly the symptoms of a bad battery connection. Allows enough juice to light up the dash, but not enough to turn her over. A tap on the terminal connections would usually alleviate the symptom until one could properly clean and re-seat them.

How appropriate……….. A hybrid hauling hybrid flooring!

Besides that……… At some point you’re going to have to register it in one of the 50. Will need some interesting paperwork to get that accomplished.

Highly suggest some matching chrome or SS baby moons!

Same for me!

Used to be (my bet it still is) that it was illegal to have a television screen within the view of the driver. Good idea. So now most (if not all) new vehicles come with a touchscreen. WORSE than a television. It requires a response. Mine needs up to 4 touches (can’t be felt) just to change the...

Not an “end”. Just a politically induced pause. As technology progresses, it’s inevitable that electric will be back, stronger than before. Renewables are the future. Or our great grandchildren are doomed. WE……..have lived in the best of times. The Founding Fathers (and we know who they are)...

If he snuck up behind you, it’s because you weren’t going fast enough. You have to be going faster than they’re going. YOU sneak up on THEM!

Sure………….. and look at Olds today…………

There are many senior to me in MTC. BUT………. Think that’s old? Well how’s this? My Grandfather was among the youngest of 13. One of his older brothers, among the oldest of the 13, was a 40 year army vet, starting out when he was 16, in the horse cavalry. He was Black Jack Pershing’s first shirt...

Badges? We don’t need no stinkin’ badges! If you need (or just desire) the approval of others, then go for it. I kept the Ford oval (with black lettering stickers) fore and aft. No other stickers. Or……. Check out my avatar. Rubber stick on. Originally meant for quarter panel protection. Selfish...

RUST?!?! You said it! Less than 6 years (albeit close to 200,000 miles), it rusted to the point that it was structurally unsafe to drive. Still ran wonderfully. But I’d grimace every time I hit just a medium bump. So I got a first generation Accord, 1978. Believe it or not, that car hauled, bit...

Everybody knows that it’s past tense!

Wasn’t talking the “olden“ days. It was Pre……! No AutoZone. Auto Palace then. They were for my ‘72 240z. (Geez……..I sound like my Old Man, talking about his ‘36 Plymouth that he put up on blocks before going off to the war in the Pacific.)

Can’t say it enough………… If you live where salt is used on the roads in the winter, get the stainless ones. Both trim rings and baby moons. Otherwise, you’ll soon be running brown ones. From experience……….albeit rather ancient by now. Pre-Amazon, couldn’t find SS trim rings, nor baby moons.

Over the weekend I installed an Amazon-purchased AGM battery under the rear seat. Before doing so, I connected my smart trickle charger under the hood. An attempt to retain memory in whatever parts required it. (Back when, that was just the radio presets.) Changed the battery, removed the...
