MotorTrendonDemand is a must if you love car stuff. I think it's still $5/mo (I pay yearly.) Ugh, I need to cancel some crap... I don't even want to list the crap we waste money on.

Sometimes you just have to be "that guy" and go up the chain.

Can you tell if there's any areas where water is running in under the foundation? That can sometimes happen... It might only be during really bad storms... tough situation :(

This was on a new Mustang still under warranty... I called Ford Corporate and got the dealer in a bit of hot water... I brought the car in a week before, for an Inspection of what was wrong. The power driver seat motors had failed on a 1 year old car. So I set up an appointment for the repair...

I did a lot of research on this a few years ago... There's two options when it comes to crawl spaces. 1. You want airflow. lack of air flow (like closing all of the vents that should be built into your foundation) can actually cause condensation and moisture, especially in the summer. It's...

I'm pretty much a "domestic" guy, but I have a soft spot for the 84-88 toyotas, I owned 3 of the 2wd trucks way back in the day, and my boss currently picked up a red 86 4 runner, really dig those! My dad even bought a Blue 1985 reg cab shortbed 5spd 4x4 brand new, they had it for a few years...

They're just a generic white spoke wheel by US Wheel. When I was growing up in the 80's, people put them on all kinds of 4x4s. Ford, GM, Jeep, Dodge, even Toyota. They were the go to "crager SS" for trucks and 4x4s. My 2wd C10 even had a set on it when I bought it. As far as CJ's, I've...

That's what I was going for. They were on everything 4x4 in the 80s when I was a kid. Wasn't anything near the choices available today. My 2wd c10 even had a set on it when I bought it.

I've had a lot of fun stuff over the years. My dailys have always been full size Z71s, currently have a 2015 I bought new (only new vehicle I've ever bought). I still have and drive the 67 C10 I bought when I was 15, 26 years ago. I have a pretty nice 65 Mustang Coupe, and a needs a lot, but...

Also, you guys might find this interesting... how to NOT install a garage door... just nail it over the siding. And don't bother to frame it or add a header... Did the best I could without ripping all my sheeting off. Done - ish.

As other mentioned, I fully wrapped the door frame. Remember, water runs top to bottom, so the higher pieces always overlap the lower pieces. I didn't grab a pic of the french door, but this time I used one of these pvc expandable door pans. Obviously a different door, just showing it for...

How I fixed my stupid french door that kept leaking. We bought the house in 2009, I replaced the door in 2010, I learned a lot... and had to replace it again in 2018. I also combined it with building a new 24x24 deck, replacing the door, again, and building a 30" overhang over the whole thing...

I just got mine a few weeks ago so I've bought a bunch of crap. Ordered new wheels - back ordered of course, double din radio/cd/GPS and the face kit that works with it, speakers to replace the blown ones, all new front steering bars and shock, new ps box, and a set of bilsteins. And a set of...

I really like old stuff and GM trucks. The 00 Z71 I kept 11 years (I absolutely LOVED this truck) and the 99 S10 for 5 or 6. Most stuff I keep... I have a problem... I've had the 67 C10 for 25 years now (bought when I was 15), the 65 Mustang around 2012, and the '68 bird project a few years...
