    Get a flat tire buy a new car. (true story)

    I'll try to not make this story any longer than it is. My daughter bought a new to her 2011 Ford Fusion, 3 years ago. She has taken wonderful care of her car and only put about 15,000 miles on it during the past 3 years. I had told her since the day she bought it that she wouldn't like paying...

    Another Truths Thread

    I know there was a "Truth's" thread around here but didn't find it. Forgive me if I'm duplicating here. Some of these are amazingly accurate. Truths GREAT TRUTHS 1. In my many years I have come to a conclusion that one useless man is a shame, two is a law firm, and three or more...

    What did you do detailing wise today?

    These were just the uppers so it could be used either way but his intention was for a rifle with a suppressor. The owner came across some great prices on the stripped upper receivers and the barrels. He showed up with a bushel sized box full of solid parts and left with 5 competed uppers, he had...

    Autopia Connect Member Only Specials

    Connect Deals and Specials In one of his recent posts Ray asked members of Connect to tell Autopia Car-Care what they'd like to see. I thought it might be a good idea to start a thread for just that purpose. I'm interested in seeing some realistic wishes that other Connect Members would like to...

    2015 Ford Edge Detail

    Sorry to say that there aren't any real befores on this vehicle, it's new with about 500 miles on the clock over a 3 month period. What you see here is kind of a culmination of a proper initial prep and light polish, several washes and several LSP's over a couple of month period. The paint is...

    Odor Bomb

    As I had never used one, I read up on the topic of Odor Bombs, seems like the "for's" and "against's" were about even. I've got a new vehicle and the "new car scent" was really a problem for me. It reminded me of smelling a rubber innertube. I tried most of the less aggressive alternatives with...

    Windows Aren't My Favorite Thing To Do

    I, like I believe others don't really like doing the glass during a detail. I'm as particular as they come and for the most part and am not usually satisfied with the result of my window washing. I had this conversateion the other day with Ronkh. I had just finished up a full detail and having...

    Oh yeah, this part of the thread had gotten so long in the tooth that I had forgotten what we were doing. THE STUFF. Got it.:) By the way I've got some STUF and I'm thinking you didn't use it.

    Here's One to Think About

    "A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the...

    Self Reliance

    I had some work done on my foot back in October and things didn't go as smoothly as I'd hoped. It's taken a long time to heal and I'm still not in a position to get out and walk. I've had to call my son to come and take care of my lawn. It's really hit its stride and is growing very fast. My son...

    Coyote to Wolf?

    Roush is working a little magic on the 2015 Mustangs. These cars aren't light to begin with, 747 H.P. (over 800 H.P. at the crank) should be just about right. :) 5.0 liters isn't a lot of displacement as a foundation. It will be interesting to see what Roush, Shelby, Saleen and the others do...

    2016 Camaro

    Interesting write up here given the horsepower listed. I can't imagine that Chevrolet would allow the Camaro to leap frog the Corvette as the BIG DADDY. If that's the case and it may not be, what is the Corvette going to be coming out with? Exclusive! We Have Performance Numbers on the 2016...
