gabelpa Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 Unless it's a hybrid that can take 3 kids car seats and a dog, is right-hand drive, and can be bought for less than £6,000 I'm not that interested :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucread Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 I just recently got all four Fast/Furious films on BluRay... they're wicked cool in HD... well worth the upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maya Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 Just make sure it is not a Friday-Monday car like our Hyndai Trajet is... I think we have fixed everything that is possible in it. Love that car though. Someone tried to break in our WV caravell... the passangers sited front door lock was destroyed by a wrench. There was absolutely nothing in that old car to steal....

Traveler Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 I don't know if there are any resident gear heads on the forums. :) In college I drove a 1957 grand prx addition TR3. It was a great little car but everytime I dorve it there was some adjustments I had to make. When I drove up the canyons in Utah I would have to stop and adjust the timing for altitude several times. I could also beat a Mach 1 off the line but everytime I did, I had to replace the first gear - so I only did that once.My top speed was 140 but because the car sat so low it felt a lot faster than that. It would go faster but that was my limit. I called my car Leslie - definently feemale. I would joke that all I did was spend money on her and all she did was take me for a ride.After I was married and my wife became prgnant she made me sell it - she said it was too hard for her to get in and out of it. That was the end of my car toys - just did not have time to play under the hood. Now days cars are so different I do not know what half the things are under the hood.The Traveler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dravin Posted August 23, 2010 Report Share Posted August 23, 2010 I have a 1991 Toyota Tercel with the 3E (wish it was the 5E) engine. What kind of beastly HP does my baby have? 82. No, I didn't leave off a 1. Stop laughing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moksha Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 Here is a car experience that was a classic: I got to ride in an authentically restored 1936 Cord a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john doe Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 I've noticed that people who drive Dodge trucks automatically go into 'drive like a jerk' mode when they get behind the wheel. Their favorite move is to tailgate you, then pull around and cut you off right before taking an exit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenRaines Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 i have worked on enough cars for fun and necessity to decide that I want a newer car and take the time I would have spent working on it to go fishing. My three daughters know more about the workings of cars than most guys. Not all but most and my son knows almost as much as I do.

bcguy Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 You can ask me any mechanical question on cars. It's what I do among many other things but right now, its my main source of income. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pam Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Thanks for the offer bc but I'll continue to ask my brother in law who has been working on cars as a master tech for over 20 years and has never steered me wrong in all that time. I know him and his abilities whereas I have no idea of yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
