  1. Hyundai and Kia are bringing back the 80's

    I have one of those for my 68 Barracuda. Been using it on the cuda for 26 years. ?
  2. travel trailer - non towing insurance question

    I live in Massachusetts and the trailer is covered by the tow vehicles insurance for liability. It cost me $200/yr to add collision and comprehensive coverage to the trailer.
  3. Phone Ringer Volume

    Back when your only option was to have a stand alone GPS we had TomToms. You could down load 100s of different voices for them. I installed one call "Mother of Small Children" on my wife's unit. It would say things like "make a right turn here, that is this hand" and after the turn "WooHoo...
  4. A/C Condenser Clutch replacement

    It is pretty easy to tell whether it is the clutch or the compressor. If it squeals whether the clutch is energized or not its the clutch. If it squeals only when the clutch is energized it is the compressor. The pulley rides on its own bearing independent of the compressor, so it is quite...
  5. What tune for 2022-2023 California Ford Ranger Owner's?

    Getting a CARB exemption takes time and money. Likely the exemption has not been updated to reflect 22 and 23s. Likely Livernois is the same for their tunes.
  6. What tune for 2022-2023 California Ford Ranger Owner's?

    Both the FP and Livernois tunes have CARB exemptions making them legal in California, as well as, the rest of the states. As a matter of fact Livernois developed the tune for FP and the exemption letter from CARB to Livernois lists the FP tune part number along with the Livernois part numbers.
  7. Painting a rusted Metal Railing

    May not save steps but you won't have to do it again for many many years.
  8. Painting a rusted Metal Railing

    FWIW, the bulkhead to my basement would look like crap every spring. I would spend the better part of a day wire brushing and painting with the damp proof Rustolium every year. During the late 90's I was restoring my Barracuda and was using POR15 on the floors and trunk. Once cured you could...
  9. Wear bars on Bridgestone Duelers

    FWIW, in my 50+ years of driving the wear bars go straight across the tread from one side to the other. Assuming the tire has worn evenly when you get to the wear bars you will have a solid bar of rubber that goes across the tread about every 45 degrees around the circumference. The only...
  10. Tow Mirrors

    My trailer is 8' wide. Between the camera I mounted on the back of the trailer, the blind spot monitors and the factory mirrors I have no issues keeping track of what is around me while traveling down the road. I want the towing mirrors so I can see the sides of the trailer backing up. I have on...
  11. China Extendable Towing Mirrors

    I saw those before I made my post yesterday. They appear to be electrically adjustable but not heated, no blind spot monitor indicators and do not electrically fold. I will deal with the strap on mirrors I have before giving up all the other features my Lariat mirrors have when not towing.
  12. Tow Mirrors

    With my trailer I can not see down the sides of the trailer at all. The first thing I did after bringing the trailer home was to mount a wireless camera on the back so I can see what is behind me just fine. The strap on mirrors allow a view of the sides but as I previously mentioned I don't like...
  13. Tow Mirrors

    Thanks all! Looks like the Clearview 's are in my future.
  14. Tow Mirrors

    We got a small travel trailer this past spring. At the time I bought a set of those strap on towing mirrors. I am not happy with them, they vibrate to much, the shift around and I am afraid they will fall off going down the road. I have been looking for mirrors that replace the factory mirrors...
  15. 87 Livernois gains?

    I am running the 87 Octane Performance tune from Unleashed. Definitely more seat of the pants power than stock but not nearly as much as the FP tune on 93 octane I was running. I mostly went with Unleashed to get custom tranny tuning or I would have just stayed stock. I am thrilled with the...
  16. Garmin Wireless PowerSwitch

    You can always buy a wireless CarPlay adapter. My wife's Jeep didn't have factory nav but did support CarPlay but she didn't like having to plug the phone in all the time. I got the Carlin wireless car play adapter. It is not perfect but overall works very well. The adapter is plugged into the...
  17. Garmin Wireless PowerSwitch

    No, it works via Android Auto or CarPlay.
  18. Anyone with problems with General Grabber tires?

    The tire has the maximum rated pressure for the tire. The sticker on the door jam has what Ford states as the recommended pressure. In the case of the Tremor with the load range C Grabber tires Ford states 39 psi. The pressure Ford recommends is a compromise between ride, performance, wear and...
  19. Anyone with problems with General Grabber tires?

    I know what the mountain snow flake means. But as I said earlier it was enough to get me to try them in the winter before deciding to go get dedicated winter tires. It was a good choice since they proved to be the best AT tire I have had for winter driving and good enough to forgo buying...
  20. Anyone with problems with General Grabber tires?

    We're the tires on your Pathfinder Grabber AT or Grabber ATx? The ATx has the mountain snow flake rating where the AT tires my son had did not. They look very similar but the ATx tires have more sipes. The fact that they had the mountain snow flake rating was the reason I decided to give them...
