    2018 Transit transmission replacement costs

    130k on this van, quote from the Ford dealer is $7,200 for a replacement transmission, seems awfully high. Thoughts? 3.5 EB V6.

    All of a sudden I'm listening to The Police

    My entire life I never cared for or listened to this band. All of a sudden I'm listening to them on a loop and can't figure out why. That's all.

    End of an era. Last episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm tonight

    I didn't really get into this show until the 5th or 6th season, friends that know I love Seinfeld were pleading for me to check it out. They were right, I absolutely love this show and sad to see it being sunsetted. I haven't watched it yet, but my bet is this last episode is mocking the last...

    Question for Copart experts

    Is there a way to find out what vehicles have sold for at Copart in auctions that have already ended? I have a 2022 Transit Connect with a blown engine I am trying to get rid of (company vehicle). It's a FWD cargo with 88k on it.

    Should I replace this dishwasher?

    I have a bottom of the line el cheapo Frigidaire dishwasher that came with the house 9 years ago. I can't complain too much about it, the dishes have always come out spotless and although it's not silent it's quiet enough to not be intrusive. The racks are those cheap vinyl coated ones and...

    I think I ran over toothpaste

    I know this post is ridiculous, but the right side of my car and both wheel wells are covered in this odd white tar. I was examining it and noticed it smells like Colgate, it's soft and smears when touched. I was thinking of hitting it with the pressure washer, any other suggestions? I have no...

    Talk to me about dashcams

    I took a short 2 mile drive tonight and encountered so many terrible drivers that ended with an idiot in an Impreza getting stuck in the middle of a main road for an entire traffic signal cycle with his hazard lights on, only for me to get the 5 second left arrow to have to wait for him to clear...

    Help me pick a new car

    Tonight wasn't good, one of the washing machine hoses decided to spring a leak despite only being two years old, so dealing with that involved a trip to Home Depot. On the way back the infotainment system in the Integra decided to have one of it's usual meltdowns where it takes 10 minutes to...

    Repairing runflats

    My brother has a 2015ish X5 with new run flat tires and he picked up a nail. TPMS warned him and he was able to top off the air. First shop he called said they don't repair runflats. I've never heard of this...second shop was able to patch it. Any idea why the first shop wouldn't fix it? The...

    2023 Ram 1500 eTorque

    Currently driving this Ram as a rental. Arrived at the inner-city Avis location in Cleveland for my Toyota Camry or similar and was told all they had were minivans and pickups. Obviously chose the pickup, waiting to be checked out I read all the debit card warning signs...handed the clerk my...

    2024 Santa Fe

    Saw the new 2024 Santa Fe today, it is really sharp! Hyundai did a really nice job on the interior, it is stunning.

    Best and worst Halloween candy

    Thinking back to when you were a kid, what were your favorite and least favorite things to receive? I'd say Reese's peanut butter cups and Reese's pieces have to be at the top. Worst would be Almond Joy 🤢 What are you handing out this year?

    Rental review: 2023 CR-V

    Currently driving this CR-V and it is a mixed bag for sure. I'm not sure what trim level it is (if anyone knows please lmk), but it is oddly spec'd. It has some options I'd associate with a higher trim level like a sunroof, remote start, heated seats, power driver seat, LKA. It is missing things...

    Just fixed my A/C!

    I have to gloat and you're the only crowd that will understand. I was sitting here about an hour and a half ago and noticed it getting warm in the house. Went to check on the vents and they were blowing warm! Go outside and the outdoor unit isn't running. :cautious: Did some quick checks with my...

    Home Depot Delivery - Impressed!

    Needed a new showerhead so this morning I go to the HD website to see what they have. Found a $40 Moen that looked like a good fit and off to the side I see they offer free delivery. I figured this was too good to be true, why would they deliver such a low cost item for free? So I added it to...

    2022 Blazer review - rental

    Currently driving this 2022 Blazer Premier with the 3.6 and have to say I'm impressed with it. Has 19k on it, I normally wouldn't select a vehicle with this many miles, but the other options were pretty boring - Altima, Camry, Malibu, etc. This is surprisingly clean for having 19k on it, usually...

    Need a glue suggestion for eyeglasses

    I ordered these glasses by mail and the little Nike Swoosh fell out...they'd been sitting in the mailbox baking in 120 degree heat so that may have been a contributing factor. I'd rather just repair this myself than deal with sending them back. Any suggestions on what type of glue I can use and...

    Hot weather killing fuel economy?

    I've never witnessed this before in the summer, but ever since the latest heatwave I've lost a ton of MPGs with this Integra. I used to average 30-31, now I'm at 23-25 which is ridiculous for this tiny car. I realize the air is less dense, but I've never noticed this in other vehicles in the summer.
