I`ve been putting off to buy a ipod because i`ve heard a couple of people say that they don`t work well together. Has anyone had any problems? Thanks

My father in law works at the Purolater plant in Fayetteville, NC and he has told me several times that the best filtrating filter they have is the regular FL-1A. I always buy NAPA Gold though.

V-6 gas engine that was built by an American automobile company (Ford,Dodge, GM, etc.) size and company?

So, I decided to put one of these together, I think it's been a while.
Basically, I cut pieces out of pictures I found on the 'net. See if you can identify them...
I've included 2 interior shots and an engine shot this time too, to mix it up. Most of these are probably not that hard. :AH-HA_wink:

2. Seemed distinctive, until I cut it off the car. I'll be interested to see if this one is easy or not.
4. Bigger piece, blander piece of design.
8. Name the bland greenhouse.
10. I think this is stock, my apologies if it's not.
11. Gauges. Colour gives it away.
12. Engine pic, but should be simple.
13. Again, I have a feeling this will be simple for a select few.
14. Decided to include the complete pic here, because it's rather obscure. I have a feeling this answer will come from one of about 3 specific members.

multiple part and others a simple one word answer.
At the end of the 59 individual trivia thread questions all the winners

T.W.T.T. Thread #45
Name the aircraft.
I was powered by an 18 cylinder "WASP" motor that produced 2450HP
At sea level my top speed was almost double that of a McLaren F1s
My tall suspension & bent wing design was a result of my 13'2" propeller
When full my gas tank would consume 534 gal.
Six .50 caliber machine guns made easy work of Mitsubishi Zeros
I could carry bomb loads of more than the GVWR of an big 1950s car
A hellcat or wildcat possibly?

Here at my dealership, we have had 2 2wd LT1 new Silverados. Both stickered at $30,000. I saw at another dealership that they had a LTZ 4x4 crew cab Silverado and it stickered at $44,900.00

In May of 2002, I bought a 17,000 mile 1993 GMC Typhoon, red/red from New York. It was one awesome ride. I`ve owned some pretty quick cars but it was by far the quickest i`ve ever owned.

Ford and Dodge HAS the limited slip rearend, GM has a LOCKING rear differential. That is the reason the locking rear is so much better than limited slip. If any of you guys have a 4x4 Honda 4-wheeler, go get it stuck in 4 wheel drive and watch the front axle and you`ll see how limited slip works. A Honda 4x4 4-wheeler has limited slip for the front axle which translates into 3 wheel drive. This is just a example on how limited slip works on Ford and Dodge trucks. A Honda 4-wheeler when it gets stuck in 4x4 mode, only one front tire spins while the other sits still.

Last Kiss is the name of the song. The singer of the original was J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers.

I searched thinking there must be a thread on this in here but couldn't find it. Probably using the wrong search string.... oh well.
I was recently looking up some info on Cars, the recent Pixar movie. EVERY car guy or gal should see this.
Anyway, I was listening to some of the soundtrack and it got me thinking about just how many songs were inspired by our beloved GM. Most songs I know of are about GM models, engines, etc. There are a few about Fords. I'm sure there's gotta be some Mopar songs, though I don't know of them. I do not ever recall a song about a Honduh or TOYota. Okay, except "Pink Cadillac" which states that her (or his) love is bigger than a Honduh or Subaru.
List the car songs you know and what (if any) specific make, model, etc is mentioned or about which the song is written. Also, if possible try to list the ORIGINAL artist as many songs have been remade so many times.
So, I'll start off the list:
Only right to start off with the song which spawned this thread -
Sheryl Crow - Real Gone - First line "I'm American made but I like Chevrolet" - Opening title song to Cars, the movie.
Asleep at the Wheel - Route 66 - Okay, no specific cars mentioned but it is the ultimate car guy song.
Brentson, Jackie and his Delta Cats - Rocket 88 - Oldsmobile Rocket 88 of course
The Beach Boys - 409 - Um, it's about the 409.
Prince - Little Red Corvette - Another obvious theme.
Okay people, your turn!
Also
Little Deuce Coupe--The Beach Boys
Shut Down The Beach Boys
Guitars, Caddilacs--Dwight Yoakum
The Mercury Song--Alan Jackson
The Corvette Song--George Jones

The "Little Nash Rambler" song. I don`t remember who sung it or the actual name of the song though.
455 Rocket--Kathy Mattea

With the '06 Lincoln Zephyr being a one-year only model (becoming MKZ for '07), I was trying to think of some other examples of models whose name lasted only 1 year...
or for that matter, models that lasted only 1 year or whose design lasted only 1 year..pretty rare in modern times..
Here`s a big one that everybody missed, 1991 GMC Syclone. The GMC Typhoon was only 2 years, 1992 and 1993.

I don't know about ever, but the smallest OHV (and OHC) 4-cylinder engine in current production for automobiles is Subaru's EN07 at 658 cc, produced in several variants in 8V, 16V, supercharged and one with VVT. Mitsubushi is the only other company currently producing 4-cylinder engines in this class (limited to 660 cc) with the 659 cc 4A30. Suzuki, Daihatsu, Honda and Mitsubishi's latest Kei-class engines are all 3-cylinder.
Smallest 4 cylinder is a .36L 356cc engine in a 1963 Honda T360.

I`m glad I live in the Fayetteville area of NC. We might get 3 inches a year. About once every 10 years, we may see one snowfall of about 6-10 inches. Number 2, I WON`T shovel snow!!!
