    Doug has made insurance worse, again

    Well, the idea is you have a policy for every vehicle, and your health benefits are based on the one with the highest risk.

    Are you referring to disability insurance, or something else?

    Doug has made insurance worse, again

    Would have been nice to change it so the medical benefits aren't required for additional vehicles if you are already covered on one.

    Daily sports car?

    Especially true if leather. I also remember burning my palm on the titanium shift knob of my S2000 once in a while. Taught me to stop holding on to it and just push/pull when shifting. On sunny day's I'd either drive with the top up, especially in stop and go traffic, or have the A/C on. Not...

    I don't know what the GT package is, but a base Miata starts at $35k

    Doug has made insurance worse, again

    I'm personally fine with the new changes in principle and actually look forward to them. I've been in a few accidents where it took a couple years to fully recover, and never had/wanted to use any of those benefits that are now optional. The only one that might be missed is the passenger one...

    Ah, it was a video: Normally, I'd say it must have side exhaist, which this one actually does if you look closely.

    There was an awesome project I saw a while back that seems to have disappeared from the net. completely modernized custom interior, LED recessed headlights, bumpers rechromed in hyperblack. I'll keep looking.

    Daily sports car?

    In the 70's, my neighbor across the street had 2 late-model C3's that I wasn't crazy about. But when I attended UofT, there was a white 70-72 convertible in the parking lot every day, year-round that I fell in love with - I couldn't put my finger on it at first, but then realized it was the side...

    Daily sports car?

    I have my M3 with Hagerty. Only limitation is not to run errands with it, and not to drive to work regularly, but occasionally is fine. You can pay a surcharge to drive it as a daily. No mileage restrictions either - they told me they want us to drive our cars as much as we want.

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Also, a longer socket (or using an extension) reduces the applied torque because of the addtional flex introduced. That's how torque-limiting sticks work (when calibraterd to your impact).

    What did you do in your garage today..?

    Same here, but the ID of those collets @Wingboy shared are the size of valve stems, whereas the shift arm control spring is huge by comparison. It freaked me out when I saw that stuck to my oil drain on one of my oil changes, but those who apprently knew better said not to worry about it. Bike...

    Normal car recommendation….

    Odyclub wsa good resource for DIY on my 2001, presumably same for all years. My sliding door cable never broke, but the rollers disintegrated. Odyclub had a DIY using 50 cent plastic spacers from a hardware store, and removing the door was pretty easy by myself using a floor jack to act as a...

    Normal car recommendation….

    The only car I ever bought brand new was our 2001 Odyssey. We had it for 12 years / almost 400,000 kms, so lots of life left in yours if you rustproof it (mine wasn't, and still didn't show any body rust by then). You'll never fully appreciate its practicality until it's gone. We thought the MDX...
