  1. Hear ya. My 2012 F150 I think I paid $12K for. I don't tow much but it pretty much gets used as a dump truck. Rust will kill it eventually. With the price of the new stuff and all the issues every manufacturer is having, I just don't see a reason to buy something newer.
  2. Just put $3K+ plus into our Explorer with gen 1 3.5L Ecoboost. Water pump, cam phasers, timing chain, tensioners, guides, etc. 12+ hour job, for a $100 water pump. Seriously? I think my Sea Doo even has forged connecting rods. 22+ F150s have aluminum bodies and the fixed 10 speed transmission. The 2nd gen 3.5L ecoboost is garbage. 5.0 seems ok if it doesn't burn or leak oil. The 2.7L Ecoboost would be ok too if you don't tow a lot. Many reports of those 2.7s going over 200k miles. Do like @X2700 and haul a 20 year old truck up from Arizona that still has a black frame and not a spec of rust.
  3. I've been to quite a few countries. The only one that has ever given me any hassle is Canada.
  4. I watched a guy on YouTube that did that on a jet ski. Left from around Connecticut and went all the way to Miami.

    If the arbitrage on a snowmobile purchase is important to you, the depreciation is going to be catastrophic.

    Huh, I must have missed that day in financial accounting.
  7. They just need more money to fix the problems.

    I didn't even try to stay up. Recorded it and watched it first thing in the morning. Tough conditions for the rookies. Even caught out some veterans like Sainz.
  10. $6 a dozen at Aldi yesterday. Wholesale egg prices have been crashing in March.
  11. TDS level 12 has finally been reached! And here I thought the whole time it maxed out at 11.
  12. Normally I don't play individual stocks but if it hits $200 per share I'll probably jump in.
  13. The President can't pardon a state crime. He can however throw out the federal convictions for violating George Floyd's civil rights, which he should.

    Only briefly. I'll wait until it hits 45,000 again and then update to 50,000!

    This is an old thread. Thanks for the reminder though, I'm updating it to 45,000!
