    What have you done to your car today?

    I just saw your other post that you have the 9 speed. Ours is the 6 that has a dipstick. We were way overdue for the trans fluid so I had to do the 3 x flush and fill.

    What have you done to your car today?

    I've always liked wrenching on cars. Now that I'm old, I realize I only liked it as a hobby, not as a chore. I've been doing maintenance which feels like every weekend for months. Pads, rotors and brake fluid flush on the wife's Pilot. Trans, rear diff and transfer case fluid flush before that...

    Drones overhead tonight (many)

    Those that use the Flightradar24 app, is there a significant delay of the app vs real time? My wife said people on the Berkeley Heights FB page were going nuts about the drones. She tells me to come look out the window at something. I am convinced it was a plane. I brought up the Flightradar24...

    Car-spotting thread

    I think one of my Mopar friends looked at those once. Where in HB?

    Formula 1 - 2024

    F1 is supposed to be the pinnacle of motorsport, but you have a team like Williams who each weekend just hope they can get through practice clean because they don't have a spare car. Then you have Sauber, pretty much the start and park of F1. Bearman is 12th in points. Ahead of both teams of...

    Earthquake????

    My work is in Branchburg. I thought someone in the warehouse hit the racks with the lift and they were all coming down.

    Post Your Doggo [woof]

    I think dogs doing this is the equivalent of teenage girls doing the duck face for pictures.

    Bad Driving

    this is from a Rt22 accident in Mountainside by the triple u-turn area. My daughter was stopped in traffic and a tractor trailer side swiped her turning wide out of the u-turn. Then he took off. She took a pic of the truck. The driver denied hitting her but their insurance ended up paying for...

    Bring a Trailer - OMFG or On Topic

    The one thing that bothers me with some of these auctions is that you're selling a car that could go for $400k+ and you can't put out the $$ to get it detailed for the pictures?? There's scuffs, some scratches and dust all over that car. If it shows up in the pics, what's it like in person?

    Things that make you smile :)

    Proud of this kid. Decided as a Freshman that she wasn't playing softball in college and wanted to commit to doing the best she could in the four years she had left. Gave up racing MTB which was a hard decision, but figured she will never play softball after HS, but she can always ride. Fresh...

    Bad Driving

    the other one that happened to my daughter was she was stopped in traffic in the right lane on Rt22 in Mountainside. A tractor trailer came out of the u-turn, drifted over and side swiped her. Driver side door ripped apart. He never stopped and took off. She was smart enough to take a picture...

    Bad Driving

    Those with teenagers driving to high school I'm sure have experienced this, but it was a shock to me to learn how much of a warzone the HS parking lot is. Every single day my kid tells me about another accident at school. She waits until the lot clears out a little before leaving. Says it's...

    Car-spotting thread

    Red will never go out of style. Greens come and go, except on Porsche. Looks at pictures of 911's in green for any year. Always looks good and doesn't look dated. Plus, that was your choice. Go with your gut.

    Ships Log: Fat Aircraft carrier war games

    The story is what makes the car. Through the entire resto of your car, the stories and your personal connection are what I was most interested in. I had a 69 Coronet R/T convertible for a few years. The only car I've had that I didn't do the work on myself. Bought it 95% finished. It was the...
