This week, Toyota lowered the price of its Toyota Mirai by $40,000. From $52,000 to $12,000. Toyota also gives a $15,000 hydrogen fuel card, so car is technically free. Problems are 1) It runs on Hydrogen. 2) Some Hydrogen fuel stations are closing. 3) There's few Mirai's remaining for...

1970 Chrysler 300 Hurst - $270 per yr. Full insurance but 4 mo in storage. (in 2022, I was only paying $180). 2013 Lincoln - $430 per yr. Full ins (2021 - $320) I'm not complaining since I live in a cheap city but I feel bad for others. Other than inflation, I found out new type of fraud...

1) Why would Cummins install "defeat" emission devices for customers? 2) How did Cummins think they can get away with doing this for 630K vehicles? 3) (I'm paraphrasing) Cummins acted as "Yeah, we'll pay 1.67 Billion, but no big deal. It doesn't hurt us at all" That's weird too. I guess...

Maybe its just me? I've been looking for a new car. I feel new cars are more dangerous (due to all the distractions built in), more work to operate and makes everyone's life slower. I know modern cars have much better suspensions, frames, rust prevention so that great, but todays goofy...

Mopar approved manufacturing, available September 2024. Nice looking electric truck but it still has its 3.6L engine. It's not a hybrid. The engine is not connected to the drivetrain, meaning the engine is just a really big generator....huh?...why? Using the engine generator to recharge is...

After 22yrs, I guess its time to get another set...but Kelly discontinued these. There's still plenty of tread since I put less than 1000 miles on every year and its garage kept. No cracks that I can see front or back. Great tires. Maybe I should keep driving on them? The only raised...

It would be nice to still see old cars cruising around our neighborhoods, but Mecum and others have ruined it driving prices thru the roof hyping up these slow, horribly assembled, dangerous rust buckets to millionaires that don't even know how an engine works. Since cars today are faster and...

I have 1 cylinder in my 1970 440 that carbon fouls, almost positive its a valve issue. All other plugs still look great. (Bosch Platinums). Engine has 154,000 miles and car was abused before I bought it 20yrs ago. Per pic, I know I waited too long to check spark plugs. Carbon fouling to...

From my previous posts, you guys know I was having problems with the plastic Mopar heater valves starting to leak before 3yrs old on my 1970 300 Hurst. You guys also know I'm cheap, so I didn't want to buy a 3rd $120 valve. Maybe I have too much pressure in my cooling system which causes these...

Yes, its me again but now the vacuum won't turn off, so I made another post in order not to confused anyone. Previous to this, I found the vacuum line disconnected at the vacuum reservoir. I guess I accidently dislodged it when I was installing new heater hoses. But when I attached vacuum...

1970 300 Hurst with 440 auto. Saved from junkyard. Dash and firewall was rotted, but I got almost everything to work. When I bought it over a decade ago, heater/ac buttons were stuck, so I kept pushing/lubing them until they operated smoothly again. In the last few months, I haven't heard...

I think the route I have keeps the line cooler, but I got it like this and don't know if original route is better. (Coil was moved to frame near fan to keep it cool). I've looks at many pics of 440's but can't tell what the route is from pump to carb. Can someone post a clear pic or drawing...

Switch for 1970 300 drivers side window broke years ago and steadily became worse and worse. It feels flimsy. Like a spring broke. Window still goes down but I have to play with it about 20 times until I find the connection point. Anyhow, the other 3 work fine. Years ago, I soldered the...

About 5000 miles ago, I bought a new heater valve for my 1970 300 Hurst for $100. It started to leak. I noticed the newer valves after 1974 are almost 1/3 the price (about $40). These are all steel which makes me believe they will last much longer than the bakelite valve from 1970? I try to...

1970 300 originally came with dummy light, but I wanted both dummy light and gauge. So I did this over 20yrs ago. Worked fine until this fall when I think sending unit or gauge became very inaccurate. Gauge sending unit is on top. Original dummy light switch is on side not in pic. I'd...

Last year, Car had a Motorad 195F, then I tried a Gates 195F thermostat. Over 85F, car was running at 210F (225F in traffic), so I put a 180F Summit thermostat in. Over 85F, it runs at 200. (210F in long traffic). I kind of understand why the drop, since thermos start to open at that rated...

I apologize if this was already posted somewhere else, but I didn't see it. Every state has noise ordinances, but most are per the discretion of the community and not by a certain DB level. California has developed an entire sound enforcement department and program, which other states are...

I'll place a video if needed but I'm lazy. 10yrs ago, I put a new starter, new wiring with Ford solenoid, then changed starter again 6yrs ago but no change. I put about 500 miles a year on it. Always starts great when cold. When its warmed up, usually starts fast with no wierd noise. But a...

Please only celebs with cars. No pics without mopars please. No nudity of course. I start out with an oldie, but certainly still a goodie. Barbara Eden, classy, smart, beautiful. The perfect woman. Finding her with Mopars was difficult. Jeep and Checker were bought by Chrysler so close...

From the 1970 service manual. Anyone do this? I can't tell if its just leaking from the top nut or locknut or both? It looks like you just take the top nut off to replace the top seal, then the locknut to replace the O ring seal. Easy, or not? I know I'll have to play with the top nut to...
