    How often do you stop on road trips?

    As little as possible. I hate to stop.. I just want to get wherever I'm going as soon as possible. My wife on the other hand likes to stop at just about every service station we pass...lol

    Bugs!

    I didn't think that anyone else used this trick either. I get the same reaction when I tell people about it. But I have to say, I is by far the best method i have found for getting off that hard to remove stuff, like bugs and tar from driving on a freshly paved road.

    AC only works on MAX?

    My AC went out yesterday. I had it set on 2 and it stopped working, so I switched the knob to 4 (max) and it came back on, but that is the only setting it works on. Any suggestions?

    Fuel additives

    Maybe I should just start using the mid or high grade fuels....? Never really even considered it because of the price, but I guess it's time to make that change. Man, these prices are a real killer!

    Fuel additives

    I sometimes use fuel additives that "improve gas mileage" in my gas tank, but after doing the math I realized, It's just not worth it. The 5 bucks you pay for a bottle of this stuff only get you another 10 - 15 miles or so per tank. For that, you could just put in $5 worth of gas and probably...

    Bugs!

    Use fabric softener sheets, the kind you put in your dryer. I think that the one that have already been used work better than new ones, but regardless, they work great and worn't scratch your paint.

    Pets in cars?

    They make something called a dog hammock that you can get at big pet stores. It protects the seats and keeps them from getting on the floorboards. It's a really interesting thing, my wife and I have one and it works great.

    Car shows & Models

    Yea, it's crazy what they can do with body pint. you can't even tell that some of the girls are painted until yo get really close to them. I've been to a couple of shows. it's a really good time.

    The dent

    I agree with everyone else here. I don't loan my car to anyone. My wife and I live next to her family and they are alway driving each others cars, but I won't even borrow a car if I can help it. Heck, I don't even like driving my wife's car. I hate it when she says "let's take my car" and before...

    Running Boards

    I wanna get running boards for my truck, but was wondering if brand actually matters. I mean they're just bars that mount under the truck right? As long as they seem steady and look good that should do it right?

    Repairing a scratch

    3M makes a great scratch remover you can get at your local auto parts stores. I bought some at Auto Zone to sand down and fix some peeling clear coat on a car I used to have. I don't remember the exact name of the stuff, it is made by 3M though.

    Bumper Stickers

    I agree with you. Having like one sticker isn't too bad, but having a dozen is overboard. I prefer to use the magnets that look like stickers, but people steal them.

    Buying gas, this is so stupid

    Haha...My dad does this too. He tries to limit himself with it though. If he doesn't find a place within a mile he just buys it wherever. Kind of a gamble though.

    Mark you oil filter!

    Wow! Thanks for the tip TBird! I had no idea that this sort of thing happened at lube places. I need to put a mark on my filter, because I take mine in when I don't have time to do it myself.

    Bumper Stickers

    I don't have a bumper sticker, but I did have one of those support your troops magnets that look like a sticker. It was just the shape of a support sticker but it was black and in white print said "Some jerk stole my support sticker". I only had it for a week and some jerk stole it....Oh the...
