    What's your favorite car show to watch?

    ~Motorweek - I've been watching it since I was a kid and it was on PBS! ~Wheeler Dealers - Ed is great, Mike is not (but there is always the mute button) ~Jay Leno's Garage - Jay knows his sh&% and he likes car tech and automotive history. ~Fast n Loud - first two seasons. (but they've become...

    1st 2016 GOP Presidential Debate

    Drives me crazy that these things are called "debates." They ain't. "Game show" or "Pageant" would be a far more appropriate description. That said I actually thought that Kaisich and Fiorina seemed like they: a) have a fairly decent grip on reality. b) can analyze and reflect on more than one...

    Dirt Road Etiquette

    Just want to add: Be careful where feeder/foot trails intersect with jeep/logging trails. If you're on a feeder trail -STOP- and look before you cross the jeep trail (it only takes a second). -I nearly squashed a dirt biker last year who crossed in front of me from a small foot trail. He...

    Cool Cars Thread

    You are welcome! When I first saw it it I had to do a double-take to figure out what they had done and then I just stood there for a minute or two with a stupid grin on my face and thinking "I NEED that!" knowing full well I: 1) could not afford it. 2) have no real use for it. - oh well, it...

    Cool Cars Thread

    Went to the Syracuse Nationals Rod and Classics show last week. Saw many great cars and trucks, but two really stood out: An Old Mack B85 to Pickup truck conversion:The photos don't do it justice. And a new Delahaye:

    recommend a mountain bike

    +1 Good local bike shops with folks who know their sh!t are invaluable, well worth any extra fee they charge over internet shops. --Don't be afraid to drive a little to find a really good shop. My go-to guys are at a shop 40mins from my house, but they know me and know how I ride; have...

    4 Runner garage mates! lets see em and talk about them.

    OK....I'll bite...what is it? At first I thought it was a '69 Firebird, but I don't recall GM putting the windshield washer reservoir on the driver side engine bay.....and that side view mirror is really throwing me. ....is it a 'Cuda Convertible??? - -

    New Unimog info

    I have wanted a Unimog since I was 6 years old (I had a Matchbox Unimog as a child - by far my favorite Matchbox). I currently have absolutely no practical need or use for Unimog but they're still damn cool. It's not new, but check out the Unimog at Breslau video from the Breslau Rallye...

    Suggestions for a second vehicle?

    Scion Tc would meet your specs. Should be able to get a gently used one for $15K or less. Can't vouch for it personally, but the one person I know with one (2012) loves it. --

    Any Mountain Bikers on Here?

    HA!...had to laugh when I read this 'cause it's the painful truth. I'm not 52 but I'm <ahem> very close behind you. The sad thing is every year I tell myself "Gonna take spinning classes this winter stay in shape for cycling "(there's a local tri-athlete in my town that offers balls to the wall...

    Jeremy Clarkson Fired From Top Gear

    Never understood the affinity for Clarkson. I've only been watching TG for 4-5 years but he was my least favorite part of the show. The vast majority of his test drive commentary left me rolling my eyes or yawning. Personally I think they should get either a real driver to replace him: Like...
