  1. EVs are NOT America's future!

    All I know is my budget for a vehicle is $15,000 or less, so that rules out nearly every EV I'd wouldn't be seen dead in. I'm not convinced they will ever be a sensible option for those working stiffs with families on a tight budget unless battery replacement costs tumble to a similar level as...
  2. EVs are NOT America's future!

    Let's try that at 70 mph and see how far each gets before they run out of fuel?
  3. EVs are NOT America's future!

    Bio diesel, the only sane medium term choice. Technology is well understood, distribution network already in place, emission controls, (stuff DEF), can work, conventional engines that can be made affordable for the average person, no battery to replace in 10 years or less that costs 10 x the...
  4. Shop you'd trust to do an engine change Snellville / Lilburn / Lawrenceville area

    It's at a Hyundai dealer right now to check in on the warranty aspect, but I think it won't make the failure criteria, which are quite specific. The key factor is which would be a better vehicle, current one, (in pretty good condition), with a 0 miles engine, or another older / higher mileage...
  5. Shop you'd trust to do an engine change Snellville / Lilburn / Lawrenceville area

    So, wife's Hyundai Santa Fe engines locked up, (no need to discuss Hyundai engines !). The decision whether to replace the engine's a tough one; cost looks to be very close to the repaired value, (does a new engine in a 100k mile card add much resale value ?). Does anyone know of a shop in the...
  6. MY GOD THE PRICE OF 22”TIRES WTH

    Buy a vehicle with sensible size wheels is my strategy......
  7. Dumping EVs, returning to gasoline powered vehicles.

    And don't forget the likelihood of batteries being damaged in accidents. Almost any kind of impact or distortion will require them to be replaced.
  8. Engine Rebuild vs Turnkey

    If you're really just looking for a fun reliable driver I'd pick the one with the best warranty !
  9. 2024 Portugal MOTOGP Suggestions

    The Isle of Man TT makes even Chuck Norris look a little limp wristed.
  10. Dumping EVs, returning to gasoline powered vehicles.

    Canada Hyundai 2022 SUV bought for $58,000, battery damaged when it ran over some debris, battery replacement cost $60,000........ I think that says it all.
  11. Brake problems - think I messed up

    Yup, already replaced it once but more and more convinced I damaged the seals when the piston got pulled out.
  12. Brake problems - think I messed up

    I'm pretty confident I bled them fine. Not soft on initial application.
  13. Brake problems - think I messed up

    Yup, need ot find a decent quality aftermarket one.
  14. Brake problems - think I messed up

    That's what I'm thinking, pretty sure I damaged the seals on the new master, so need to start again.
  15. Brake problems - think I messed up

    From what I've discovered not required for this model / year. I have decent scan tool, I'll double check if that's an option though. Just doesn't feel like air.
  16. Brake problems - think I messed up

    Bled conventionally and with a vacuum. The brakes aren't soft on initial application, but the pedal sinks under constant pressure. They will pump up, but then sink again, not symptoms I've seen of air in the system, but leakage / seepage somewhere causing pressure loss after application.
  17. Brake problems - think I messed up

    Sorry if this is long winded, but I'd appreciate peoples opinion. Scenario: 2013 Santa Fe, ~ 95k miles. Brakes ok but the pedal slowly sinks under constant pressure, will pump up. Same behavior when engine running or off with brake booster drained. Checked - fresh fluid, bled brakes, no...
  18. Thinking about selling my 1973 Honda cb500

    Had the same model back in the early 80's, love it, how to make room in the garage......
  19. What a REAL truck looks like.

    Let's see it tow that 911 for 300 miles on the interstate
