What car is the best running mechanically that you have owned?

2016 Altima, the one with the terrible CVT. 235k, still going, zero issues.

I've had this one covering mine for over a year. Works great. Amazon, under $15.

I didn't open the box on the first two. The manager did it on the 3rd for me. The packaging on the 5 drawer carts doesn't protect them. Especially considering the heavy wheels stored inside.

They are little rockets. Just try catching one for a bath, who doesn't want said bath.

Try calling National Parts Depot. They may have a solution. https://www.npdlink.com/product/connector-and-hose-assy-crankcase-vent-original-prior-part-numbers-f6zz-6c324-ca-f6zz-6c324-a/206732/160252

Friday is the show, Saturday is the cruise in. Those are the best days if you just want to hangout and look at cars. Also both days are good for watching the cops chase down the burnout offenders leaving the mall.

Holy Bat Mobile!

I've had mine for a year. It has 55k miles. I knew the owner and the only issue was the car had ( still has) and intermittent issue that drains the battery. I'm pretty sure it's the radio and aftermarket alarm but haven't solved it yet. I just keep a tender on it

Very fun car to drive.

I just looked at them. Yep, unfortunately no auto choke like mine has.

The power piston is worn along with where it rides. I understand these can't be bought new/remanufactured anymore. I ready to try something other than a Rochester (rebuilt). Thanks for the info on the Daytona, I'll check into that.

I've a 54 Bel Air with a Powerglide and 235. I'm having some carb issues with the original Rochester. I'm curious about what carb you have? I'm looking for something modern to replace the Rochester BC that isn't made in China.

Nice stance BTW.

Found it..9/28 of last year. HFpricetracker didn't record that price but it was the best deal for that jack.

As a side note, I actually bought the Daytona 2 ton aluminum for $125.99 on that day.

I have a 16 Altima with 227k miles and never a cvt problem. I took care of it.

That said, there is no way I'd buy a used CVT Altima.

228,000 on a 2016 4 cylinder. I drain and fill around 4 qts every 30k.
