New England B.S. Thread

You missed a Yankee fan coming to New England. That pretty much gives you a good idea of what the last 11 pages consisted of...

 

It's similar but there are some important differences.
1. The note about marking the drive shaft is important. I used a punch and put dimples where the flanges met.
2. Your drive shaft will drop all in one piece, from transfer case to rear axle. The one in the video had a flange in the middle, the 2nd gen has u joints.
3. Most importantly, you will have to take apart one of the universal joints in order to get the carrier bearing off. The video has a flanged connection holding on the carrier, the 2nd gen has a u joint. Make sure you're prepared to press u joints (or replace them while you have everything torn apart anyways)

 

I'll take my endless pennants and 27 World Series titles, and go hang out with my NY peeps.

Enjoy your hand full of pennants and World Series titles.

I'm out.

 

You'll be back

 

So hard to decide when to move on from a vehicle and when to keep repairing. Being young, broke from school and in need of a DD is not a fun spot

 

I have a dcsb 6spd I'm looking to sell...

 

He also would take 3 points from your next test grade if you wore a hat, scarf, etc to class. Sounds silly but it is preparing for the real world.

 

This guy gets it

 

Rivalry is healthy for sports. Gives us good content like this....

 

Whoa.

 

Morning all!

 

Morning everyone

Back home last night. Time to get mowing, watering and pick up all the dogs! The trip was fun, the island beautiful but nothing beats getting home.

 

I honestly didn't even know they made a TL Type S... not entirely familiar with the family tree for acura's as I tend to stay away from cars with too many bells and whistles. I just found out this thing had a remote starter installed on it and I have been driving it for 5 days now.

So I did the math on how much each vehicle roughly costs me each day to drive at about 60 miles each day..
Tacoma - 12-13mpg at 2.89ish for gas was roughly around 12-13$ a day
Acura TL - 23mpg at 3.39ish for gas (premium only) is about 8-9$ a day

Obviously it varies with traffic, weather and how pissed off at the world I am but its a nice savings I guess. The insurance offsets a lot of it though.

 

Morning, peoples. Only two more days of work and then....CAMPING!!
Going to be a looooooooong two days, though.

 

Budgeting miles is something more people should be conscious of when looking into their financial situation. I did that and switched to being more responsible for awhile. But I was unhappy driving, so I work 1 extra hour of OT a month and it pays for the extra cost. Haha.



(On top of the 3 extra months of hours I work a year anyways )

 

Good morning from Newport, ME. Getting refueled and headed back to Boston. Tons of Tacos up here. Must’ve run across a couple dozen or so just running up and down rt 7.

 

Yup, that’s why I run the Corolla all week. $60/wk vs $20/wk. gotta admit though enjoy driving the taco more especially now with the new Billies.

 

take it off any sweet jumps yet
