I'm just saying I can haul 6000 lbs on a free rig, and your 60k truck can barely handle 3000 lbs.
that's how to make her last? I drive 5-8k km per year.let the car idle so the turbos can cool down before shutting off the ignition; yes - the oil lines can get coked up (not that kind) due to the excessive heat
and don't drive like granny - hopefully yours has the multi drive modes... put it in Sport, top-off with 91 (remember when it was 92?), and make that bitch walk and talk.
I'd say yes... let it idle for a few seconds if it's hot before you shut it down, and blow her out every now and then to keep carbon from building up. I do this with my John Deere as well. Always let it low idle to cool everything down for a couple of min if I've been working it hard.that's how to make her last? I drive 5-8k km per year.
Why would I want to haul anything? The spray-in bedliner might get scratches. Madness...I'm just saying I can haul 6000 lbs on a free rig, and your 60k truck can barely handle 3000 lbs.
three-speed auto in the Malibu might have had something to do with it; also, a Quadrajet dumping gas at 90mph just isn't as efficient as fuel injectioneither the Malibu had a long final drive ratio, or the truck had a very short one, I’m guessing.
I will take all the useless cash off your hands that you have laying around, I don't mind the hassle. I can PM you my address...So a couple weekends ago, I am in a sorta medium sized city seeing a music show. The venue is right spang in the middle of a college nightlife section of town and I wanted to grab a hundred dollars of cash before the show. We parked and paid the kiosk with our card and proceeded to walk down the main strip. Hundreds of college students, bars, dispensaries, clouds of weed, tattoo places, etc.. We start looking for an ATM. Nothing. I finally see one in a tattoo shop - its a (totally fucking useless thing called) a bitcoin ATM. So I go in. Its unplugged. Of course it is. So we continue, pass another dozen bars... nothing. So there is a Kroger and a Walgreens down at the end - we head there. Nothing at the Walgreens. We can see three ATM looking things at the Kroger so we head there. Two of them are who the fuck knows what... I forget but they were obviously not ATMs once we got within 50 yards. No fear, one of them is, or so it appears. We get up to the thing, and it took a while to figure it out, but the goddamn thing is a machine to sell your old cell phone. You punch in what your phone is and put it in the hole and you get Earth-monies for it. Obviously not cash because they are going to need to confirm that it is what you said it was I suppose.
Anyway... cash is dead. We didn't get any. We didn't need any. It has been two weeks since then. I still have the same, lone 1$ bill in my wallet.
