Jeez. The TRX's bed is already minuscule. Besides, is the Mega Cab really any longer than the Gen 5 1500's? There's a crapload of space behind the front seats.

Nobody has a normal garage space you could rent?

Fixed.

I'd have to check what the deal is with our '23 Charger. If I remember correctly it was "sold" within the dealership for some reason. If so, whenever that happened should be when the warranty started. I've ever worried about warrantees...maybe I should?

It would be strange if that wasn't the case.

Numbers matching, '71. That's where the big money is.

I was made aware of a discrepancy when trading in a '19 Durango a few months ago. Apparently the system had brought up an "inconsistency", which worried the dealer. I was easy enough to figure out once they told me what the numbers were. Apparently, during some service before I bought the car...

Normally a self driving car, and especially a fun to drive one, wouldn't interest me one bit. But maybe there's something in it even for me? For example, I could send it out on its own to get the oil warmed up for an oil change. Useful, since I tend to spend more time on maintenance than...

Now that you mention it, my parents have had up to six vehicles between them. No wonder I have ended up with several more than that.

Speaking of, now that I put the one year older OE tires back on the car I took some measurements on the Indy 500s that had been on there for a bit over 5,000 miles. Not surprisingly, the most wear was on the right front's outer shoulder. Even with a healthy 1.7 degree camber it had almost 50%...

Do you really expect me to remember every place I've driven that car since August '18??

So? Old people don't need much sleep they say.

I'm not going to hold it against you, but you do look slightly younger in that photo.

That's unlikely. Probably leaves or maybe the remains of a bird. Either way, the wheel well is cleaner than the wheel...and about as dirty as the front of the car. Yeah, it's peroxide time.

Put the clunky stock wheels back on, to serve as jack stands while I'm mounting new tires on the good wheels. And it does look like the brakes are still in decent shape, at least there's enough left for next summer's driving.

My crystal ball must've informed about my future Peterbilt purchases when I first started driving. Or, maybe it became second nature to be in the correct gear due the hundreds of miles I ended up driving without brakes back then. And again more recently, now with 18 gears to choose from.

Hmm, downshifting and being in the correct gear for the speed is a novel concept. I might have to try that sometime.

I mainly use those grinder discs that look somewhat like a black sponge. Otherwise, NTerpinal works well, even on powder coat.

Took me a while to get used to the idea after moving here, but these days I do like about 50% of people here and leave the vehicle running while at the post office. Basically, there's nothing inherently wrong with post offices, but they can be in the wrong place.
