    Hey man, that 2000 Honda with the 1.6 VTEC 127 hp and 4 speed auto will drink more gas than the Fiesta with the 1.6 Ti-VCT 120 hp and the Powershift 6 speed auto. Do u know why? 'Cause the auto in the Fiesta has 2 clutches from a manual tranny instead of a torque converter. 7 hp difference...

    Well it's good. Trust me if my ZX2 Escort can make it through 8 years and 157k (I had it since it was new trading my Ranger in for it 3 days after Xmas 2000), yours can do it pretty good and still look so nice and fresh. Unfortunately mine got so much dents and dings esp with the passenger...

    stick or auto?

    Most brand new cars even the BASIC cars nowadays come with tachs for 5 speeds. Hell, the car I'm soo lusting nowadays, the 2011 Ford Fiesta comes with a tach on the S basic model STANDARD. The 2011 Toyota Yaris 4 door doesnt come with a tach and the Fiesta is CHEAPER than the Toyota. Both...

    I have a new hero

    Now I'm gonna show that to my daughter (she in a wheelchair due to spina bifida). She can be pretty inspired and want to do any crazy stunts on a wheelchair. I told my ex wife NO powerchairs when we found out about the spina bifida. It was because having a manual wheelchair could inspire her...

    Black Friday!!

    Hell, I worked the Black Friday crowd at the walfart for the first time ever. In my 13 years with Goodys I never had to work one in-store as I was a warehouse man myself. Boy, that was TOUGH...I had to keep customers off the pallets until 5AM. I caught a lot of customers taking a peek on...

    Jet-powered Ford guns for 300 mph

    How to get my laptop to run faster.

    No wonder why I dumped 512 megs of RAM that was in my old HP laptop and went straight for 4GB worth of RAM on my Gateway. That also got me back to Intel (this time a Core2Duo) after 4 years on the AMD64 Now in a year or so it's gonna be time to go for maybe 6 to 12 GB of RAM esp with online...

    V (television series)

    Man, I just finally got my hands on the 1983 NBC "V" miniseries and 1984's "V" the Final Battle. I compared both movies with what I remembered from the 2009 "V". It's been a LONG time since I watched both V movies on NBC with no CC and having watched all 4 episodes of the 2009 ABC "V"...

    V (television series)

    Lately, it's more twists and turns on the new V in 3 episodes less than what I watched on FlashForward. I cant believe ABC is now ruling the roost when it comes to dramas like Lost, FlashForward, and now V. It gets more interesting with each new episode, but this Tuesday (the 24th) will be...
