Sad. Just sad. Folks overestimate their driving prowess, next thing, they’re waiting for the tow truck.

Damn that's a steal! My builder said it's more then likely the thermostat too. Does he still have the Neon? You don't see too many of those around anymore.zmaqbool I’m guessing you have a thermostat that’s “stuck”. That’s how my bro was able to get his 2005 SRT-4 ACR for $1,800. The seller said it would overheat easily and thought it was a blown head gasket. My bro paid for the car, drove 2 blocks down, swapped in a new thermostat, added water and drove 50+ miles home no problem
That's a lot of air if it is air being in the system. We thoroughly bled it out. Radiator possibly but most likely thermostat. How does a thermostat go bad on a car with such low mileage?Open wouldn’t make it overheat. It would have the opposite effect.
It can really only be a few things, still air in the system, water pump, thermostat or blocked radiator but knowing how you clean your cars it isn’t that.
I can’t really think of anything else that would cause it to overheat that wouldn’t be super obvious.
I figured it was. Or could be just a faulty sensor too but noting that should be super expensive or difficult to replace. Yeah, it’s his daily driver that’s been pretty reliable. Oh dude he gets offers for it all the time and it’s not even painted, lol.Damn that's a steal! My builder said it's more then likely the thermostat too. Does he still have the Neon?

Those my friend are what I call my hunting lights, lol. Started with one & liked it so much had to get another one . I never use both together. Got yelled at by highway patrol last year for having one on . Thank God no tickets.May I ask whats the story on the front bumper of the Maxima?
Beauty . Getting it roadtrip ready?Off for some TLC, before heading to CA this weekend

Speaking of Maximas
Oh for sure you'd get cooked with all that sun coming in. That's wassup it sounds like a lot of fun. Did you have to pay to participate? Post up some pics if you can. I'd love to see what shows up.Sorta, gonna be towing it out to CA, those glasstops gonna kill me if I had to drive it 6 hours in the desert
Theres a farm a little north of San Diego that throws the biggest West Coast Turbo Buick meet every year, so I'm pretty stoked to finally be able to be apart of it
That's dope. Tell him to paint it, lol, would look even better. What engine did those have?I figured it was.

that looks like a blast tbhI cant even tint the glass either, most shops either won't do it or I have to sign a waiver
Na its completely free, alot of raffles, giveaways, tshirts, vendors, food trucks etc, I've never been but I seen pics and it looks dope, so I'm pretty hyped, and anyone can come even if you dont have a TB, if anyone in SoCal is interested in coming out, heres the flyer for this Sunday
Oh damn, that's wild, be careful out there. Maybe not painting it is a safer idea. 270hp & especially up to 350 woule be crazy since the car only weighs like 2,900lbs. The Shelby GLHS Charger screams 80s I love it.We might do it ourselves but he likes it the way it is for the moment. Our area is too crime ridden at times and he knows anything shiny will attract the wrong attention. We drove down a local street known for gangs and sure enough had dudes pointing at us and even walking into the street to look at us as we drove through. My bro was like “man, I’m not gonna paint it but I’ll buy a good alarm”.
This Neon has a 2.4L dohc 4 cyl turbo with 260-270hp at the wheels (Chrysler underrated on purpose). I think this version has done the 1/4 at 13.7 completely stock. My bro just wants to do a computer tune to 300-350hp tops. He wants to go back and focus on his 1987 Shelby GLHS Charger since it’s in crappy shape. He’s got #45 of 1,000 made.
Why won't they tint it- too difficult for them? Looks like it's going to be a big show surprised it's free. Sounds like a lot of fun, enjoy the day bro.I cant even tint the glass either, most shops either won't do it or I have to sign a waiver

Any of you guys have a 5th Gen Explorer?
Thinking about buying a Platnium, not sure though.
Im waiting for the Grand Highlander/Lexus TX/Refreshed Tahoe before I really buckle up and spend on a new one.
Yeah I was looking at a 17 Platnium 68k milea for 26k (good price?) ...If you want an Explorer, your far better of with the 5th Gen vs the new 6th Gen. I can't stand the 6th Gen version. I sold a bunch of 5th Gen models and every customer loved them. Just make sure you get the most recent one (2019 is the last year of that Gen). Platinum has the 3.5 Ecoboost so your gonna be good. Comfortable, roomy, and pretty solid. The 6th Gen has so many issues and recently finished DEAD LAST in the most recent comparison. Any questions, let me know.
Yeah man, if it’s not crime it’s also our neighbors are careless too. I’ve gotten so many door dings on our other cars that I’m actually glad I don’t care about them as much. It would drive me nuts to paint a car and then see fresh dentsOh damn, that's wild, be careful out there.

Man having my first real problem with my RAV4 .. after driving it 100k miles
My oil is just disappearing. I get an oil change and 1000 miles later it’s bone dry. Put 5 more quarts myself and 1000 miles it’s gone. No spots under where I park either. No blue smoke
Brought it to get an oil change today and the guy said my ‘timing cover gasket’ is seeping oil. I looked it up and it makes sense
Seems like a lot of people have oil related problems with RAV4s so I’m gonna bring it Toyota to get a diagnostic or something and then bring it somewhere else to get it fixed
