My parents have about 500 acres of farmland in West Texas (Abilene Area). There is an old non-functioning water well (about 50 years old) on the property. It was supposedly a very good well years ago. There are 3 stock tanks that are very low and we have been stocking them all with fish. Are...

Man, I was in my 20's and having a ball in west texas in the early to mid 80's. Mickey was, and still is, one of my favorites. Me and my roommate used to sing "all the girls get prettier at closing time" all the time. This one hurts..

My mom has a early 2000's Nissan Altima (4 cyl), with 196k on the clock. This has been a tremendous car and they take great care of it.. It has a bump between 1st and 2nd gears and it feels like maybe a transmission slip, just not sure. The bump doesnt happen at higher speeds. The fluid level...

I have had the desire for the last couple of years to get my CDL... I live in Dallas and am 55 years old. I am not looking to become a truck driver at all. I really enjoy driving and mainly thought it might come in handy when I retire. There are a ton of jobs on Indeed.com where companies are...

I purchased a 2013 Frontier used and a bed rack came with it. I thought it would be easy to remove but I have had no luck. The silver slider rails below the bed rails must be glued to the bed or something because I need to remove those to get to the big bolts that attach the bed rack to the...

I bought a used Frontier SV today (50K miles) and have been looking forward to posting it on BITOG for thoughts/ recommendations. I think these are fairly solid vehicles. The timing chain and cross contamination issues I believe were ceased in 2010. If you guys have experience with these or...
