OP should look at the Marlin 795. I've got one and love it. I think it'd combine the capacity (can get 25 round mags) and price. I bought mine for $150 and $25 for the higher capacity magazine. It's a very light rifle, it's so much easier to carry th

Why is it that in every thread about buying a truck, so knucklehead has to state the obvious that trucks get poor economy, and then suggest buying a small car?

Never saw an epitaph that said: "I wish I had worked More". However, I did see an epitaph in Key West that said: "I told you I was sick".

Yes, the manual is the way to go! the dual clutch auto is about $400-$500 to service every 40,000 miles. VW has had a higher than average failure rate of the DCT. This could be due to the lack of recommended servicings. Visit some of the TDI forums,

The new and "green" R1234yf refrigerant. All under the banner of saving the planet and making just few bucks (read billions) in the process. Oh, and Honeywell/Dupont would have the monopoly and only rights for this stuff, how convenient...

If you're going to be spending $300 you can put a little more with it and find a good used Marlin 39a. That rifle is going to be of much much higher quality than the 10/22 or 60. I don't think there's much difference in the quality between a 60 and

The price is certainly right, even if the free filter is something you wouldn't typically use. OTOH, you can get a Wix for almost the same price with a five off five coupon.

I know that not everybody has a ton of money, including myself but why would anyone buy a 95 taurus with a ton of problems. Its a money pit. You might be better off spending that money on a years worth of bus tickets.

I've always had luck buying gas from a place that moves a lot of fuel, and has good prices. Here in north austin, it has been the HEB grocery store, or the Randalls grocery store. Paid 3.22 a gallon yesterday for 87 in my grand marquis.

I've had several 4.3's and 5.3's. I have never had a problem with any of them, but the difference in fuel mileage has only about 2 or 3 MPG, which doesn't make the performance deficit of the 4.3 worthwhile for me.
