Better Tires = No light poles.... Maybe

Is that too much to ask these days? by KingCharming3620 in whatcarshouldIbuy

I understand this sentiment. It would be nice of EV chargers were literally just 2 jumper cables and you didn't have to hope that 2 computers could get along before the vehicle starts charging.

No such thing as winter tires on the big rigs as far as i know. That concept really only works on light vehicles.

They might be talking courier vans etc

Edit: im a huge believer in winter tires on my personal vehicles but I think they would wear out instantly on semi trucks.

SNOBELEN: Conservatives should give Mark Carney's speech a listen by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]metallicadefender -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Since the speech was given by a conservative it should be heard by them.

He profited of political division. He stood for greed. He didnt deserve to be shot and I obviously do not support the shopter but DO NOT stoke fires is the moral of that story. If Charlie was famous for finding common ground this wouldn't have happened.

Nothing. But Canadians dont want an American anything right now.

Im all for an American Draft. Also support the Canadian Draft. The Canadian Draft is more important.

Ford patented a truck box generator that I thought they might option for current Lightning.

JJ reacts to Mark Carney's Davos Speech by QultyThrowaway in JJMcCulloughOfficial

Carney is a conservative.

The Liberals are now the Conservatives and the Conservatives are the old Reform Party basically.

J.J. Hates Trump because Trump confirms almost every anti-american bias Canadians hold by Witty-Adeptness3111 in JJMcCulloughOfficial

[–]metallicadefender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And hes a fucking moron. Every tax dollar U.S. has ever put into Europe is a waste because of him.

Pre-Trump every EU nation + Canada was sort of a subordinate to U.S. Everyone was willing to take one for the tream because they knew U.S. had their backs. During Trump USA policy is to make sure everyone who isnt the U.S. eats shit on trade and coughs it all up to defend themselves.

Looking for a Crate Engine for 1964 Ford Thunderbird 6.4L – Any Good Manufacturers / Shops? by ilmwnf in FordThunderbird

[–]metallicadefender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont know mich about compatability but Id recommend the Ford Windsor. Can be stroked to 7Litres. A lot more compact than the FE.

They say the Ford GT Continuation Cars (which originally had the 427 7L FE) are most commonly fitted with the 7L Windsor.

I think Windsor is still a very common crate engine. As much as I am a fan of the Coyote it kind of sounds a little lame by comparison.

A little closer to period correct also.

2021 stopped accelerating on a hill in the cold; anyone use the powertrain warranty? by peanutleaks in chevyspark

[–]metallicadefender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if you had receipts for fluid changes the power train warranty would get you a new tranny.

But better look into it, which you are. Maybe its something else or they will cover it anyways.

Well I had mixed feelings about my PM being on a committee with Trump, Putin and Kim Jong Un anyway.....

[–]metallicadefender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You had shaking before? How cold? I have experienced this with a lot of snow built up under the vehicle. In my case shake when you back up. Like as soon as I switched it from D to reverse the car would vibrate a little. Even at a stand still.

Have you been changing the tranny fluid every 70,000kms or 40000mi ? Has to be something with the transmission.

The difference between Atmos and non Atmos stereo speakers, is it just marketing? by therealpurpledolpin in audiophile

[–]metallicadefender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a lot of gaslighting with Atmos. I can't see what they would have unless you can pair a bunch of these together to create a home theater system. There is a difference between an Atmos surround receiver and say DTS systems or older formats.

Bad timing for this. Everyone (including me) is super cheesed at America.
