I'm looking for a QUALITY general purpose toolbox that can do most everything mechanical without costing a damn fortune.
A couple of ratchets, enough socket sizes to work on anything from lawnmowers to tractors, screwdriver set, hexkey set, etc.
Not made in China please.
Anyone know? I haven't found a good set yet that doesn't cost a fortune.
I got one of these back when Craftsman was USA made.
$100 bucks.
Pawned it so my now ex wife could go to a concert.
I'm basically looking for a toolbox that at least has what this has except the made in China part.

Ok I just got a 2006 Ford 500 limited (hand me down car from parents) I understand that it is a grocery car and not all that great but is there anything I can do to make it better than stock
>>16210201
its a Ford 500
theres probably 0 aftermarket, and if theres any it would only be parts that might make it handle "better"
>>16210232
That's what I was thinking
>>16210201
tires, wheels
What in the world is that?

How do they even run these shitty togues at night?
I'm living pretty rural and the roads are a really fun around here, but I never step on it when it's night because of all those animals.
Don't want to wreck my car desu, don't they have any wild animals in Japan?

Radiation killed them all, fampai.

Takumi won race against the EK9 just because an animal ran in front his opponent's car at the end of race

Where I live I constantly see full size trucks towing ridiculous size loads. Maybe it's because I live near the eagle ford shale fields.
Now 1/2 ton trucks that's a whole other story. I rarely see those being used for anything more then basic transportation, but if someone wants to spend 45k on a truck and just drive it around the mall parking lot it's no skin off my noise. It's their money and their likes and dislikes, so long as they don't tell me what I can or can't own I'm not going to tell them either.

That car in the background needs chains too
Anyone have any experience with modern Mercedes cars?
Thinkin bout buyin a C300 sport
Solid car. I've put 20k on mine with no issues. I realize that's peanuts and doesn't say much. My friend is a mechanic and works on these all the time; says it's one of the few cars he won't hesitate to buy.

A bit softer than the comparable 3 series but at least it has a dipstick and you can get a manuel in an 09 or earlier. NA so you don't have the turbo complexity. Not the best interior materials but it is a c-class.

Found a 2014 at carmax for $23,000 with ~35k
Plus it still has the factory warranty until 2018 and or 15k

You're supposed to open with a question
Who here excited to see the 2018 neons?
How open should the throttle be at idle? I just got a car and the throttle cable was detached. Just want to make sure I've got it in the right position.
Thoughts on the R53 Mini Cooper S?
Might be getting one tomorrow. It's a 2003 with 156k miles.
>buying an FWD BMW product
My girlfriend has a 2006 and it's super fun. The engine sounds good and the supercharger makes the car really zippy. All I can tell you is do not floor it in 5th or 6th, and keep up on the maintenance as best you can. If you love it, you'll have no problems. Make sure you get the oil reservoir in the supercharger checked and refilled so it'll keep going. Especially at 156k.
>>16213302
why?
JUST
>>16212880
What's the issue?
It's been 17 years since the EK9 type r
Stop bitching about the future
and?
>>16212880
New looks better.
The EK is a bit of a ladies' car.
whats the difference between different engines? i see people on here posting about how old muscle cars are slow but i see people online still putting old 350s into their cars. isnt displacement displacement?
Displacement is displacement but that doesn't have to result in a proper power/torque curve. There are amurican boats with 7 L engines that produce like 200 HP.
>>16212637
The 350 is pretty cheap and simple so that's why people still swap it.
>>16212642
how can you get more horsepower out of a smaller engine? wouldnt it just burn less gas making less powerful explosions?
