Interesting VW story: I was maybe 15 ( you could drive at 14 in Idaho) and about to take a girl on our first date. Was going to use my parents 58 VW. The day of the date the fuel pump went out. Dad said no problem. He said the gas tank was higher than the engine so as long as I kept gas up in...

A lot of people seem to be very sensitive to a lot of things

The screen on my 24 Lariat is fine. How much resolution does one need for backing up?

Does anyone know a way I can add chrome stacks behind the cab like an 18 wheeler? And maybe an oogah horn and fake white sidewalls like we had back in the 1950s And yes I’m being sarcastic
