    Why cant I get the Headlight to come out of 2013 Ram 1500 ?

    I've taken mine out of my 17 without removing the grill. It was a female dog though. I have a grill guard now, so forget about it.

    Which tire?

    I really like my Cooper ATs. If I was rich I would use Michelin.

    One rare Canadian Hemi Coronet

    Like he said, in 73 my Hemi Roadrunner was worth $835.

    Looking for advice/opinion on buying a truck

    My wife is one of those that, when she sees something she wants, she announces it loudly.

    Looking for advice/opinion on buying a truck

    I have a 17 QC with V6. Second one and no issues at all. I'm at 80k on this one. The other was 88k when it was totaled. If I had to buy a truck today, it would be a Ford Maverick or preferably a 50s-70s restored regular cab. There are lots of them out there.

    Mpg

    The cruise control doesn't save gas. You can do better with your foot if you want the best milage. If you don't want to concentrate on milage, use the cruise m

    Think I might crash

    It's amazing how I'm still alive after my teens and early 20s. When I was 15, I worked with a woman who ferried fighter planes in World War 2, and she was with Joey Chitwoods Daredevils in the late 50s and early 60s. She taught me how to drive on 2 wheels and I did it often for a couple of...

    greasin that hitch

    I want one of those medieval war club hitches to keep people off my butt. I will spray it orange so it can't be missed.

    MPG effect of Leveling Kit

    I would like to bring my front end up 1.5 inches because I have a Ranch Hand grill guard and it scrapes on some speed bumps and dips. I have lost 4mpg already with 10 ply AT tires, grill guard, Ranch Hand back bumper, and ARE topper. I doubt it would make a difference in mileage, but the expense...

    2025 Toyota 4runner Trailhunter

    Motor Trend never saw a new vehicle they didn't like. You do know that the factories bid for the Truck of the Year Award, right? Yeah, I've heard Toyota's are great. I drove a couple and I didn't like them. I would have liked them much less after 250k miles. You want a box that you haven't...

    New grill 1 vs 2

    I see all kinds of really ugly grills these days, but I figure if it's on a 4wd that is being used as a 4wd, it makes sense. Especially if the truck is black or white. I don't see them on pretty trucks. A lot of trucks here have deer catchers so it doesn't matter either way for those.

    greasin that hitch

    In Texas you just assume that there's something sticking out of the hitch. 90% stay loaded all the time, even in the cities. However, I'm going to remove mine now, because that's the kind of thoughtful person I am.
