    F150 gas engine help

    Robert, hopefully the mileage will get better. However, isn't it about time for a 2013 anyway? If I could afford it, I'd get a new one to replace my 2008. With my "normal" driving (city/highway mix), I'm getting 13.5-15.5. Of course it's an XLT and doesn't have the "lie-o-meter". Of course...

    TG, glad to hear everything is going okay. Sorry to hear about your dad's fiance, that's gotta be tough after that many years. Hopefully he'll be happy living close to you. Congrats on the future new family member.

    My little buddy took

    Years ago we had a "Heinz 57 variety" dog that was bitten by a snake on her neck, and my wife took her to the vet to get a shot (I believe it was adrenalin) to alleviate the pain and swelling. Stupid vet wouldn't keep the dog since she hadn't had a parvo vaccine, and later that afternoon, my...

    new ford transit chassis cab cutaway

    Ford made an E550 chassis for awhile and some people thought it was better than the 450.

    new ford transit chassis cab cutaway

    Now that Ram will have a 1/2 ton diesel, I'm sure Ford won't be far behind. I don't think they'll let Ram get too far ahead of them. Also, this cutaway has a frame. I read an article awhile back that said the new Transit Van would be a unibody. Maybe this one has a unibody cab with the frame...

    Finally Sold My RV

    This is the first time in almost 19 years that we haven't had an RV. Started in June 1994 with a Starcraft Popup. When the tornado blew our house away in October 94 it was in the driveway next to the house and suffered minimal damage, in fact we spent that night in it. A couple of years...

    Finally Sold My RV

    Yes, I FINALLY sold my 99 Dutchmen 5er. I guess God was looking out for me and the person who now owns it. A local minister stopped by a couple of weeks ago and asked if it was for sale. It was full of junk (used it for an additional storage shed) but I let him look in it. He said one of his...

    diesel price jump

    Dave, we'll continue to fight this for many years to come.

    diesel price jump

    Many stations went from $3.55 to $3.69 for regular overnight in the Dallas area. Saw one that had diesel for $4.09. Also saw another station that had diesel for $3.89 and premium for $3.99. First time I've seen any grade of gasoline cheaper than diesel (even if it's only 10 cents). Sean...

    Danica Patrick Wins Daytona 500 Pole

    Joe, she's also very short. One of my neighbors and his wife go to Texas Motor Speedway all the time. He said they were in the pit area once and she walked by, said she's a "little bitty thing". I hope she wins not only the Daytona 500 but many other races too.

    Danica Patrick Wins Daytona 500 Pole

    How about that? She's the first rookie to win the Daytona 500 pole since Jimmie Johnson in 2002, and we see where he has gone since then. Hopefully she will win several races this year, qualify for The Chase, and win the championship. I like the fact that she doesn't take any crap from the...

    diesel price jump

    This is crazy!!!!! Even gas is at $3.55 in the DFW area. I actually saw one station yesterday that had regular at $3.76. Filled up the new Honda Accord Friday and got 29.52 mpg. That is much better than the dearly departed Crown Vic whose last tank was at 20 mpg.

    Wife's Wreck

    Thanks everyone. The dealer that we bought the Crown Vic from had another one identical to the one we wrecked (another black one, same equipment), but she didn't want another one. We're getting used to all the "gadgets" on the Honda. We've never had one with a backup camera, pushbutton start...

    Wife's Wreck

    On Monday January 28th, my wife was headed to work and was about 1/2 mile from home. For some strange reason, she drifted off to the right side of the highway, hit a mailbox, overcorrected, and rolled our 2011 Crown Victoria twice, totalling it. Thank God, she only has a broken right wrist...

    Hopefully the Ravens can beat the Patriots too. Then there'll be an all "Harbaugh" game.
