    1975 - 1978 Dodge Charger SE owners.

    You think you get a snub, try running a 4 door! Mine is an ex-detective police model(78 Monaco) so the haters usually sort of grumble, draw circles in the dirt with the tip of their shoes and begrudgingly say "well, cop car... I guess...." but they don't have much good to say really. Haters are...

    Farmer tries burning coal for the first time

    Then he should already know about it, and not really sure why his neighbors wouldn't allow? A phone call is easy. But it isn't my life so to each his own.

    1965 Ford Mustard

    Sorry couldn't watch it, 2 seconds in I realized it must be an add for pills or some other "treatment". The "car" is the result of telling AI to make a classic car convertible with a happy looking mostly described lady and see what it comes up with. Mustangs are, if nothing else, very common...

    Scary Snow!

    Yeah if you draw a line from Green Bay to Iowa, most of that is pretty flat, with some exceptions. No mountains in WI, Wausau is a big elevation change but it is a gradual thing over miles and miles on both sides. That flat area is also where most of the population is in the State, that south...

    Your top 3 TV cars?

    I thought of something as I see a few movie vehicles posted...... Why Ramchargers are better then Blazer or Bronco..... I mean, mine couldn't do that because I haven't added forced induction yet........

    What are your Mopar goals for 2025?

    2025 is going to be interesting for me. I am on the finish line for my mortgage. So I will likely not have much to spend on any projects, elimination of debt is the main goal here. So I have been looking at how I can move things forward elsewhere.... My Dakota, as much as I love it, has been...

    Farmer tries burning coal for the first time

    Someone should tell this guy wood ash is a replacement for lime. He could spread that out on the field without causing any issues, instead of having it hauled away. My Grandfather's home burned coal in the WW2 and prior timeframe. In the 50's, he swapped the chute to be used for firewood as...

    Scary Snow!

    This was from the local news channel. I got a kick out of it. It has the full list further down the page. https://fox11online.com/weather/weather-stories/wisconsin-state-highway-29-interstate-41-most-feared-winter-drives-united-states-survey-poll# As a life long Wisconsinite, I find all of...

    This can go both ways. From my memory, this turned into a thing in the 90's when the then retiree's were blowing massive retirement money on their high school rides and suddenly old muscle cars were an investment. Ford guys can get especially wierd about it with marti reports. To me, it is...

    Ram Owners washer squirters on hood icing up blocking them...

    Sold! Is it good for -20F? Cause that is what we are heading for in WI in a day or two. My Chevy doesn't have this issue, but my Dakota is very sensitive to it. Almost like it loses prime in the cold months, and when it is real winter it just doesn;t work. Of course, Dodge in the 90's it's...

    Your top 3 TV cars?

    Easy Batmobile A Team Van General Lee In no particular order. All three were driven by the "heroes" and seemed to be able to do anything. If I could extend the list- Grandpa Munster's cars, both of them Magnum PI's car The helicopter from Air Wolf(lol, it counts right?) Maybe Knight Rider...

    Engineers really don’t think about maintenance Spark plugs Hemi Ram….

    LOL, are they factory OEM plugs? LOL I am curious, maybe you can't tell anyway with that condition haha, but when I put new ones in my 318 magnum the new plugs had a noticeably smaller diameter electrode then the old ones. And I could tell on mine because I pulled them when I got the truck with...

    Decisions Decisions

    Lots of modern stuff can keep you from sleeping right. Most common thing people tend to ignore: screen time before bed. Your phone, a TV, a computer- all of these things have been proven to disrupt you, and too much screen time has been shown to increase frequency of illness. Watching TV...

    I think that will vary regionally based on fuel quality available also.

    who's the most beautiful actress in her prime?

    I was going to post this one also. She was very attractive on that show, and her attire for the show was very professional and reserved. They did a good job trying to make her oversize tata's not be the main focus of her character. People say sometimes women in the 80's were too busy trying...

    Had a crush on Kelly back in the day: Christina of course is much older now.

    who's the most beautiful actress in her prime?

    Jennifer in the 80's/90's, the most knockout girl next door type of the era. Not sure if this scene was written or someone on set had a brilliant idea. And I mean brilliant.

    Christmas Gift Exchange for a Lincoln Mark IV

    I don't mean MPG as the goal, not specifically. From my tuning on a few Fords over the years, having them run responsively, smooth, and "snappy" generally meant the MPG was also higher then stock. Ford's detuning over the years actually hurt their MPG. They tried to make up for it with...

    Christmas Gift Exchange for a Lincoln Mark IV

    Awesome car. The interior is why you buy anything like that, nothing like it nowdays. For the engine, I would seek MPG and responsiveness over maximum power. A lot of Ford engines from that era were designed in the late 60's with compression ratio's pushing ten. On the 460, it was over ten...
