    Diesel in Gas Cans

    Diesel fuel is a lot less volatile than gasoline and a lot less aggressive as a solvent. I'd expect anything suitable for gasoline to be more than good enough for diesel fuel. Viton is one seriously chemical resistant elastomer. There are a lot of chemical compatibility guides out there, such...

    Styling comparison: Tacoma vs HiLux

    And it doesn't look completely different from my Lexus RX350. Which is *not* what I want in my truck. If I could have the front from my old 1981 Pickup -- or a 60 or 70 series -- I'd be just as happy. Don

    Styling comparison: Tacoma vs HiLux

    Exterior styling of the Tacoma for me, save the rear wheel arches. Strong win for the Tacoma's interior. Engines gotta go to Hilux. Put 'em in a bag and shake 'em up and we might just end up with the perfect truck. Don 2001 Tacoma TRD 4WD DC

    D110 respray

    I like the original color -- one of my favorites. I wouldn't change a thing! I travel to Finland often -- and almost never see a Land Rover there. Not a common vehicle, even in a country that loves its cars. Kiitos,

    Vintage Econoline Pop-Top

    Pretty cool. Having grown up in the rust belt of Central Ohio where this old Sportsmobile is located, I can tell you there aren't many Ford Econoline suvivors from 1970! Don

    Check your sportsmobile wiring!

    Did anyone see that spectacular full moonrise last night? One of the best things about the Midwest is the full moon in autumn. Which reminds me... Anyone know how the man in the moon cuts his hair? Eclipse it. :sombrero:

    Older Tom Kellog help needed

    The easiest way to tell Campy SR is the black parallogram plates on the rear derailleur, contrasted with the bare alloy of Nuovo Record. Any pix? Don

    Husky vs. Weather Tech: Who makes the better floor mat?

    I have one-sided feedback on Husky Liners -- my 1988 Cherokee has had a set for about 15 years. The same set. They're durable as heck. The heel pad on the driver's side has worn down the diamond plate pattern, but they probably have another 15 years at this rate. They do a good job of...

    Not for USA: New Ford Ranger

    I like it. Didn't really expect to, but it works for me. I think it'd find a huge market if they produced it in our North American market. Don

    IBS Dual Battery System

    Beautiful here in STL today, TangoBlue. Thx for the Tacoma pix showing the IBS display -- exactly what I'm up against on my Taco. It'd fit better in my truck at half that size! Don

    IBS Dual Battery System

    Made in Switzerland per the company's website: http://ibs-tech.ch/en/products/production-of-usi-dbs.html Can anyone with access to a unit report the dimensions of the monitor unit? (Trying to understand the potential for suface mounting in various locations) Don

    Unusual and/or Derelict Vehicles/Machinery

    This late 40s - early 50s Autocar was abandoned in a yard between the railroad tracks and the highway near a house I lived in out of college in the 80s. Probably scrapped -- or buried -- now, but it had a great patina of age in the day. Don
