    The Post a Picture of Your Ride as it Sits Thread

    We drove many cars that day, and it flat out stood above the others. However after owning it for a few weeks now it reminds me of a corvette as far as access, it is a pain in the ass to get in and out of. When we first drove it I was on crutches so I attributed the difficulty to that, but now...

    Nascar advertising cars

    These were displayed at a local steakhouse in the rafters above the bar. I expressed interest in them years ago. I was quite surprised when I was contacted to pick them up. I however had no idea that they were this large, over 7'6" each. We spoke with a bartender who said they had been above...

    Dr Colorchip??

    Dr. colorchip now has a squirt 'n squeegee repair kit that is designed to work on road rash. I purchased a kit a few weeks ago and used it on my wife's 130k DD. I had never used any of their products before and was pleased with the results. There is a definate learning curve, but if I can...

    Buying a used car - '09 Hyundai Sonata

    We have a 09 sonata with the v6, and 130k on the odometer. No major issues at this point. However I don't think I would buy a used one with that many miles on it.

    Who likes people touching their car???

    When he grows up I think he is going to be a small appliance repair man, he is totally obsessed with any vaccum cleaner, dishwasher, washer and dryers. The wife was making cookies the other day, he didn't want a cookie he wanted the mixer, thats all he could talk about. Little guy has Leber...

    Who likes people touching their car???

    My 3yr old grandson is blind, he loves to go into the garage and run his hands over papa's truck and grandma's car, I just cringe, :cry: and the kids laugh at me. I have even gone as far as distracting him by introducing him to the tool box, weedeater, and anything else I have laying around.

    Magnesium chloride/chrome/rust

    I understand the reasons for owning a beater, however when the roads are bad the wifey is not going to commute in a beater, that would be like taking away her security blanket.

    Magnesium chloride/chrome/rust

    This is where I can't quite understand whats going on, because its only the chrome and stainless steel parts that are being affected. I do not get rust marks on the exterior paint, nor does the undercarriage look abnormally corroded. I have more rust on my chrome than my entire undercarriage...

    Magnesium chloride/chrome/rust

    I have never used Iron-x, however all surfaces on the new truck where clayed and sealed immediately upon delivery. It just totally baffles me that 2 out of 3 vehicles would react to the de-icer. My in-laws have also had 3 ram trucks since 09, that where all daily drivers and none of them...

    Magnesium chloride/chrome/rust

    Brief history; I had a 09 ram, every time it would come in contact with road de-icer it would develop tiny rust spots on the chrome/stainless steel (plastic and metal) almost immediately, left unwashed would it would etch into the plastic. At the time I was using a meg's nxt. Then I had a 11...

    Does The Government Shut Down effect Auto Detailing ?

    Same here working for back pay. I am not buying anything until this whole mess is over. What kicks me in the sack is I have to charge bills to my credit card, which I have to pay interest on, and when the man back pays me he is not paying me interest for holding my money, nope he's charging me...
