    Turbo time!

    That's a good BOV--it opens quickly and flows a decent amount. If (when?) you decide to run 20+ pounds of boost, I can show you how to modify the valve (they start leaking at that point).

    '71 Impala 4 door... what should I do with it?

    Every one of these ideas is an excellent upgrade and well worth doing.

    My first experience with credit card points/miles

    I had to comment, because I was perusing Wikipedia and came upon this remark: "In November 2014, Google launched Google Underwater Street View in 3D of the Great Barrier Reef." Wait... what??? So I followed the link to the relevant news story: I didn't know this was a thing.

    Aww, man, you cut off the best part of the joke.

    Used car extended warranties...

    All vehicle service contracts (ie, "warranties") are not created equal. If you (a) purchase one from a reputable company and (b) you get the coverage you actually want, they can be a godsend. Point A: reputable company. Pick a company which is recognized by a lot of shops (at least ones you...

    Spotted

    You're darn tootin! (That plate was available for a very long time--I would check on it periodically, but I just didn't quite feel like it needed to go on any of my cars. Until now.)

    What are you listening to?

    Over the weekend, the wife and I headed down to Vegas to catch a show at the MGM Grand Arena. The opening act was a relatively new band from Atlanta called The Funeral Portrait. Based on their FB page, they seem to be aiming for some sort of evil/death/satanic persona. I'm not really hip to...

    Utah bill of sale - seller responsibility?

    Curiosity being what it is, I decided to run a title check on the VIN in question. You know, just for fun. It looks like the OP registered the truck on 8/10/2021 and renewed the registration the following July. After that, a purchase was reported on 9/11/2023 and a new title (and presumably...

    e Mountain bikes...

    Thanks to this thread, I found myself randomly searching for E-bike reviews on YT. I ended up finding Tail Happy TV, the channel where a guy named Matt tries out EV bikes and puts them through their paces. The dude has serious Spicoli vibes, and he lives in Los Angeles. This is a plus, because...

    I need your phone number.

    Well, I'm out.

    Turbo time!

    I'm just jealous that Tony is playing with (and driving) his turbo car(s), while mine is just sitting in my garage gathering (more) dust. :(

    Anyone here ever seen a concert at The Depot?

    <forehead smack> I should have mentioned that I saw Faster Pussycat at the Metro Music Hall. How does The Depot compare, size-wise?

    Anyone here ever seen a concert at The Depot?

    There's a concert coming up later this year that interests me, at The Depot. I've never been there. From what info I can see online, the place is... small. It looks too small for the show in question, which is odd to me. Anybody ever seen a major act there? If so, what did you think?

    Smoked Meat is Awesome!

    I used to think along these lines, too. A year and a half ago, I was given an old hand-me-down Traeger (same model as OP) for a wedding gift, and I've changed my mind. I've only made brisket on it so far, but I love it. And as far as "all that time" is concerned, while there is a large...
