My son is looking to buy a used Canon 5D MIII, and needs lenses for it. We aren't in the new retail price market. If you've been thinking about selling a seldom used lens, we might be interested. He is definitely looking for a 50mm, preferably the F/1.2, but would accept a good deal on F/1.4...

I made a short video showing my delima related to setting the timing marks on my 1998 Gen 2.5 with the 3.5L SOHC. Opinions welcome! I'd love to get this baby back together this weekend. https://youtu.be/NIcCTYVzsEo

My wife has a whole bunch of photo editing software on her Mac, including iPhoto, Photos, Photoshop Elements, and Pixelmatr. She doesn't use any of them, sigh..... I on the other hand, use Photoshop (full version) and Bridge extensively, and have a bit of an aversion to LightRoom's...

I have a 1998 Gen 2.5 with the 3.5L SOHC engine. I recently did the timing belt and water pump, and think it was done properly. Now about two weeks later, the truck has started to run extremely roughly, and sounds like it's firing on maybe 4 of the 6 cylinders. The engine rocks significantly...

When it comes to mechanical skills on engines and things.....I'm a pretty good rough carpenter :-) So today my son drove the Monty home from school (about 3 miles door to door), when he parked in the driveway, he heard the gush of liquids and some boiling steam coming out of the front end. He...

What would cause one headlight to go dim? I replaced the passenger side bulb with a new one, but it's still dim. I measured 11.85v at the harness, but I don't know what the good one is reading because the driver side bulb is a real PIA to get to. I can't think of what would cause it to be...

I'm told there are four O2 sensors on the 1998 Gen 2.5 with the 3.5: SOHC engine. I can only find two, one just ahead of the cat, just after the right and left bank exhaust manifolds merge into one pipe before passing through the Catalytic converter, and another between the Cat and the muffler...

My son has outgrown this outdoor all purpose shoes. They are a men's size 6, and he only got a couple of outings with them before he grew out of them. They are basically new and in excellent shape. $15 would be nice. I'll ship on your dime to wherever.

My mother in law bought these awesome Sorel boots for a trip, never used them. My daughter is too big, so they are up for grabs. $50 would be nice. make offer: Available in SoCal, or shipped at your expense. I have a box that will fit.

My front passenger window won't stay up anymore. It's dropped all the way down into the door. Window motor still makes whirring noises like it want's to work, but I think the window's gone of the rails, or whatever. Is this is easy fix, or do I need a masters degree in rocket engineering to...

I thought this was a decent article, worth sharing. Tom Severin is a really good guide and trainer located here in SoCal Article link...

I got an interesting letter in the mail the other day, from my US Congressional Representative about the "Amateur Radio Parity Act of 2015" From the letter: As you may know, the Federal Communications Commission has stated that there is a "strong Federal interest" in supporting effective...

This is a pretty great video: https://youtu.be/ILYk6kO0Ne4 https://youtu.be/ILYk6kO0Ne4

As an amateur photographer (or perhaps more accurately, "avid trip chronicler"), I have a ton of photos on my various computers, external drives, and cloud services. Every few years I poke my head up above water and look around, evaluating the current state of the industry with regards to...

Yesterday while starting the 1998 Monty, the horn started blowing, not in any sort of sequence, such as an alarm, just... random horn noises. It only did so with the ignition key inserted and turned to the ACC or Start/Run position. So with the car running, the horn was occasionally sounding...

My 256GB rMBP is full, and my wife's 500GB MBP is full, and my son's 750GB MPB is nearly full, and our external 2TB NAS is nearly full, and my free Dropbox and free iCloud accounts are full. So.... looking at external hard drives, and I found this. Some really amazing prices for a rock solid...

My Monty has been a bit persnickety lately. Recently had to replace the brake switch (though after about 200,000 miles, it was due), but last night the Monty surprised me with a weird combination electrical fault. The ABS light came on, the gauge cluster on the top dash (compass, oil pressure...

This is pretty spectacular work. Extremely creative. The skydiving part is a trip! http://youtu.be/BLL-kW_TpT4

I need a set of street tires and rims to swap in on my 98 Gen 2.5. It's seeing more and more use as a daily driver, with my 17 year old behind the wheel now. Looking for something more stable than the 33" BFG KM2's on there now, plus with better wear characteristics. Prefer to buy cheap and...
