    What Grocery Getter would you buy for a long daily commute...?

    Yeah, and the new one coming out is called "Edge". But cars are Focus, Fusion, Five Hundred, Freestyle, Freestar and trucks are F150, F250, F350. I bet the marketing department is pissed that the Mustang is still a best seller and they can't rename it!

    How do you know when you need wheel bearings?

    Tires are in good shape. I got new ones @ 30K with 400 treadwear rating. They still got lots of good tread. I'm hearing some whining and sometimes a wierd noise starting off. In a couple of weeks, I'm gonna take it to the shop and have them take a look.

    What Grocery Getter would you buy for a long daily commute...?

    I like the Mercury Milan better than the Fusion. The styling is better. Not to highjack, but why do all Mercury car names start with "M" except the Grand Marquis? If you gotta get an import, I'd get a Civic SI.

    Even tho it's '04, I got it in Sept '03 and it's got 53K miles. I also like to go sideways! :D

    I'm sad

    I wasn't racing the guy, just took off like normal shifting around 4K. When I saw him overtaking, I stepped on it. By the time I reacted, it was probably too late. It just surprised me, b/c most of the ricers are all show.

    I'm sad

    Got my door blown off by a Mitsubishi Eclipse the other day. I don't know what it had in it, but it was making a weird noise. Maybe a turbo or nos...all I know is I was in 4th gear and he ran right past me. He was behind me in traffic, when the light turned green I went like normal, and by...

    What have I done?

    The car gods are smiling on us so far! Went down to the parking garage where the Saturn has been sitting for 6 mos. Checked all the fluid levels, and they look good and pretty clean. Found that it had a busted battery terminal, so we ran to autozone and bought a new battery for 60 bucks...

    I think I saw a new GT500 today

    I'm cruising down Rt. 50 today in Cincinnati, and I pass this Mustang going the other way (new style). It's white with the old double racing stripes...blue. I look for the fog lights (like we all do), and I don't see them, but then I see dual exhaust in the rear view mirror, coming through the...

    What have I done?

    My first car was a Datsun 310GX and I beat the **** out of it. Ran great when I got it. Only mod I did was a rear sway bar. Used to go hill-hoppin in it. Hopefully my son won't do anything like that!

    What have I done?

    My son is getting turning 16 August, 31st. I've been teaching him to drive and we've been thinking about a car for him. Some folks we know have a old Saturn that ain't runnin and they offered to give it to us. It's a 1995 SL2, Auto 4 banger with 136K. It's been sitting for 4 mos. Guy...

    Handling Question

    That's pretty much what I thought. I love the way it handles on dry pavement. It's was just the wet conditions I'm wondering about. On dry pavement the rear grips is awesome.

    Mustang sold...moved into a Cadillac CTS-V

    Nice ride! I've drive one too if I could afford it.

    Handling Question

    This spring I got panhard bar and bilsteins installed. I love the way the car handles, but sometimes it feels a little loose. In the rain, I'm fish-tailing all the time. I can only guess that it would be worse if I had done springs. It's kinda fun, but kinda scary sometimes, too. I'm...
