be able to sleep tonight. First one is close to home with MN plates. Drive safely boys and girls. I wonder if some of these type of crashes are the result of driving new cars with all the tricks then climbing into the old school iron and just pushing it to where it should not go. http://vimeo.com...

25% higher than last year at this time. I'm talking cost per therm. Last month was 10% higher than the previous year. Anyone else seeing this? I'm with Minnesota Energy Resources. -- Edited by Back in Black on Saturday 1st of March 2014 05:00:32 PM

Just got home from a week's R&R in San Antonio TX. Sheryl's been there a few times on business, but this was my 1st time. This is a neat town, and I'd highly recommend a "couple's trip" there. The city has it dialed in with the "RiverWalk" area of downtown - lots of shops, restau...

Every once and a while the add is better or at least as good as the car. Take notes Chris R. http://houston.craigslist.org/cto/4340865708.html I know, I know it should be in the adds section..........just enjoy the read; I don't think to many here are looking for a 65 Mustang.

Trivia... Ford, who made the first pick-up trucks, shipped them to dealers in crates that the new owners had to assemble using the crates as the beds of the trucks. The new owners had to go to the dealers to get them, thus they had to "pick-up" the trucks.

Had plans to get the 71 apart this winter, but since some nice person decided to key the 65 a month ago or so, it is now blown apart. Needed paint anyway in the next 5 years or so. Plan is to not go farther than the removing the front clip and re-paint, the snow ball is picking up speed. Ordered door panels and n...

Picked this up at Menards, Has several common sizes below ½” Both standard and metric. Saves grabbing the tap and die set to check thread size. For years I’ve been tempted to steal the one at the end of the isle in the hardware store.

I need 50-75 license plates for someone who's helping with the Cruise for Troops. Any state is OK, any condition is fine. Please let me know ASAP, they're going to someone else who's making a silent auction item, so they need time to make it.

I have a 2010 Tahoe with 67,000 miles on it. I am trying to figure if I should drop the pan, change the fluid that comes out and change the filter OR do a flush. I have read to flush between 50-75,000 but only change the filter and fluid that drains at 100,000+. The theory is that flushing a high mile trann...

Ok it’ colder than a Witch’s you know what this winter, so here’s the question, will an automatic transmission warm up faster in Neutral than it will in Park?

As part of a planned upgrade we will be removing an oil burning furnace and replacing it with a natural gas unit. I’m looking at 75,000 BTU dual stage burner with a variable speed blower and a 2.5 ton AC unit with the highest available SEER rating. Any guesstimate on an installed price?
