  1. Canada? Or is that North Minnesota. . . .
  2. Someone around the corner from me has one of those iQ's. . . thing is the size of a shoebox. I have to say, though, it ups the game from a Smart Car. It is very small, but looks proportional. (the smart Car looks odd, like a Fiat - too tall) I bet it would be a lot of fun to drive with a stick shift. . . . .
  3. 'Tis a time traveler from 2016. That doesn't give me much hope for the future of the automotive industry. . . . .
  4. Rob, do tell. Why the horror on these things? Details, sir, details. . . . .
  5. Crap I just saw this. Not that my rig is ready to off-road, but would have liked to meet other Texas members.

    Mazda Rotary

    Wow, that's pretty open-ended. How bout this. . . .I'm thinking about a toy. This wouldn't be a daily driver, but would be used for fun and the occasional highway trip. It would need to be dependable for that reason. Would you suggest an RX-8, or a late-iteration RX-7? What are some trouble spots with each? If I were to go RX-7, should I avoid the turbo, or target a turbo? Also, do you have a forum recommendation where I could learn and maybe look to make a purchase? Oh, I almost forgot. With me, a stick-shift is a given, so if there are issues specific to the automatics, thou needest not trouble thyself, lol.

    Mazda Rotary

    Does anyone have any firsthand knowledge of Mazda rotary engines? Maybe you owned one, worked on one, had a buddy who had one, etc. My family had a 70's station wagon when I was a kid, I think it was an RX-4. Used to spit tremendous clouds of blue smoke when you started it due to apex seal failure - so maybe I'm just being a bit nostalgic. . . .
  8. I actually kind of like the way those vans look. I had a buddy with a Toyota van that had that cabover look. Had a five-speed and the stick was about 2 feet long.
  9. Lol. . . I hope the London Silly Nannies score many wickets in the rugby game they will play on Monday Night Football. . . .

    RC Crawlers

    Can't say as I have, but it sounds like an interesting topic. Got any pictures?
  11. 'Tis an abomination, and an affront to all the Pathfinders that came before! Huzzah! (I bet I sound like a WD owner talking about the 96 R50 Pathy, lol. . . )
  12. Glad you like it. As far as injectors, how am I to know that you have a mental-hospital issue hypo? And why do I find that somewhat disturbing.....Human Beef...... *scratches head* Also, try brewing the Cafe Du Monde in milk instead of water. Put an appropriate amount of grounds in a cheesecloth and brew it directly in milk in a pot on the stove. That's how cafe au lait is served at the actual Cafe Du Monde in the French Quarter. Goes great unsweetened with the beignets.
  13. Don't be givin that succubus no tree fiddy!!
  14. Received my secret Santa gift today; it was waiting on the porch when we returned from my "ancestral manse." A slow-cooker cookbook! A very astute observation on Santa K's (mallcrawler) part, seeing as how I've posted several crock-pot recipes, and have had lengthy discussions with B about crock-pot recipes.....thank you, K! According to the clerk when I shipped out, my Santa recipient was supposed to receive theirs today. (It was kinda heavy)
  15. should we all post pics here of what we receive? I know I for one am curious as to what other people gave/ received.
  16. While I disagree, I somehow can't fault that logic. Impressive, sir.
  17. THAT'S a Firestone Destination A/T.
  18. BFG T/A KO. Firestone Destination A/T Not sure. . . . thinking Michelin "A/T" tire Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac Pirelli Scorpion
  19. Mine's going out today as well......hope someone likes COAL
  20. I think they should just drop the Pathfinder name altogether. The only path that thing could find is an Interstate highway on it's in-dash nav system. What's the code for a Quest? Because that should be the letter code for it.
  21. You got it, Beaumont/ Port Arthur/ Orange. I haven't gone wheeling since moving here three years ago, so I have no idea on locations. But this is Texas, so, there's got to be some places.
