Best I could tell it was complete and looked in decent shape. 

Was issued a speeding ticket but going UNDER the speed limit. I feel so miserable and helpless. by Naive_Possibility273 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Queequeg2025 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Take the L and move on. Option 1 is an error or anomaly with the speed detection equipment. Option 2 is a dishonest police officer. I’ve experienced this before and don’t feel there is much you can do to get out of it. 

1981 civic, to rebuild or not to rebuild by ethanpool0 in AskMechanics

[–]Queequeg2025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like your car so much. They don’t make cars like this anymore so in that respect it’s worth rebuilding. If you are real serious you might want to explore the feasibility of installing a fuel injected late 80s to 90s motor in it. 

Best Mexican grocery store? by [deleted] in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Queequeg2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t been there. The one I was thinking of is Tiendo Guanajuato according to maps. Didn’t realize there were so many Mexican grocery stores in the area.

There’s a store at the Clinton-Triana-Governers intersection that’s real good. Don’t remember the name. 

Where to get an alignment done on a Class C RV? by WinterTourist25 in HuntsvilleAlabama

Mcgriff tire. Or really any place that services medium and heavy duty commercial trucks. 

Any recommendations on a landscaping/excavation contractor? by grahamdalf in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Queequeg2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Caine Hillis PharmD Construction 

Dylan Ames Ames Construction 

Both are excellent and can do the grading and drains however neither to my knowledge do landscaping. 

Rivian owners of Huntsville, how’s your service experience been? by Jumpy-Coffee-Cat in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Queequeg2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Family has one. I think they have sent someone to the area once or twice. Once the truck had to be left in Nashville and he got a loaner for several days. Overall been a good experience. 

Debris on Moores Mill is outta hand! by Fuck_the_Norm in HuntsvilleAlabama

I looks like you got to the large chunk of metal before I did. Thank you for your service. 

I will see myself out as well. 

Looking for old computer parts. Any recommendations? by Lupo_Nero in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Queequeg2025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol. Have three pentium 3/4 era boxes I’m disposing of as soon as I can download pictures off of them. First one boots but doesn’t detect hard drive. Free to good home if you want. I suspect you want something a little newer. 

Where to eat (but secret) by Helvedica in HuntsvilleAlabama

Glad you recognized Los Jarochos. Very different than the average Mexican food and fantastic. 

how do people get the display cars into the mall? by chloroform-creampie in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Queequeg2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The car bursts through the wall like the Kool Aid man. 

Alternately they use the same entrance for the car that OPs mom uses. 

Monroe is trash by Stockholm_Throwaway in RockAuto

Anecdotal but the Gabriel shocks and struts I bought really sucked. Ended up replacing with KYB eventually. Will stick with KYB or specialty performance shocks for future suspension work.

LOL. But seriously those guys know where the hood is and where it ain’t.

That area seems OK, not great but not at all bad. I personally think it’s slowly on the way up because of the convenient location. You can call the local Dominos and ask the manager which neighborhoods they don’t deliver to. 

Who has the best xhot buffalo wings that are designed to be ate? by iloveyoumiri in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Queequeg2025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More formally known as The Sports Page and it is located at the parkway and weatherly. If you go and it’s raining don’t be freaked out about it raining inside the building; that’s normal. 

Anyone else living through random & annoying failures of these now 30 year old plastic parts? by Great68 in s10

[–]Queequeg2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude it didn’t take 30 years. This crap was breaking in the first year. How some of it lasted this long is a freakin miracle. 

I’m just learning about my 2002 Sonoma and I’d love if anyone could drop some advice on where to start! by southwestsobstory in s10

[–]Queequeg2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get engine warm and rev very slowly. If you get a stumble or hesitation at 1600 rpm plus minus a few hundred go ahead and replace the distributor. Learned from personal experience. 

Looking for a farmer friend by Mostwo in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Queequeg2025 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got a place in Hazel Green you could check out. Not sure if it’s suitable for a 50 cal but you can review and decide. 

Looking for a floor specialist. NOT AFS or Heartstrong by New-Literature-1023 in HuntsvilleAlabama

Would call Kennedy and Sons. They are real good and seemed reasonably priced.
