I took delivery of my Sapphire in April 2024. After two and a half years and just over 21,000 miles, it’s still the best car I’ve ever owned. I recently saw an article mentioning that the Lucid press fleet Sapphire has about 7,700 miles on it. Given my odometer, I’m pretty sure I have the highest-mileage Sapphire in the country right now. It’s my primary car three to four days a week, doing everything from normal commutes to hauling construction materials. Reliability & That One Sketchy... Read more

stupidly bought speakers for a B9 upgrade when I have a B8, so looking to sell 1x FaitalPRO 4FE32 (with 2 'ears' already removed) and 2x FaitalPRO 3FE22, looking for £60 delivered, any takers?

I knew I was lying to myself when I bought my GX460 and told myself "this is staying stock". At the time, owning a high mileage 80 series and an almost too meticulously built 1st gen 4runner to daily drive, I spent about a year searching for really the only GX460 I thought was cool - an early model 2010-2013 in peridot mica, base trim, with preferably the sepia interior. I missed out on a few where I would call day after listing and the trucks were already sold. Early one Friday morning... Read more

I feel like I've read about this here, but my search only found similar, not the same issues. This is on my 2016 Toyota Land Cruiser. What has changed lately - it stays parked a lot more these days since commute in a different vehicle. I might use it once a week or less (I also have an 80 that I use on weekends). At times when I start the 200, I get a flashing 4 Lo and CDL warning lights. Usually, if I shut the motor off and restart it goes back to normal (no flashing lights). Something... Read more

I am building a 318 as a 273 commando clone for a 65 barracuda. I know the factory commando intake is a single plane flat intake. I am kinda wanting to run a late model 340 dual plane. Is there any issue with hood clearance when running a taller 340 intake, Carter or edelbrock carb, and the factory chrome commando air cleaner? I am not looking for anything crazy power. The car is going to be just a fun weekend cruiser for the family. I really wanted to try and hunt down a Holley... Read more

After driving it around this past glorious fall weekend, and a few diplomatic yet strongly discouraging comments from my better half - the 60 will stick around... Ugh - killing me but our 60 spends 99% of her time parked in the garage or winter storage, and a new job is pushing me toward buying something more practical for frequent airport/road trips. Before I list it on Mud I wanted to offer it here. For those who have seen it, you know it's a great 60. Highlights and lowlights below... Read more

...My daughter is frustrated with the recent failure at an execution. She said send in a vet nurse. They use the same drugs and they know what they're doing. They are experts at ending an animal's suffering. Sometimes she hears, 'Oh I couldn't do your job. I love animals too much.' She does this job BECAUSE she loves animals.

Hey Mudders, I need some assistance here. My 07 lX recently had a mishap and the LH tailgate mounted brake and reverse light was cracked. I ordered what I thought to be a plug and play replacement but while the lens/fixture looks identical, the wiring is different. The lamp has a 4 pin connector (Yellow, Black, Red, White) while the car and old light are expecting a 3 pin connector (Green, White, Black). Is there a way to swap the 4 pin connector down to 3? ...

Does anybody have the correct pin location to tap into from the Lexicon amp? To hook up a CT subwoofer, amp and LC2 I am getting conflicted information. I have a 2026 G70 sport prestige all-wheel-drive with a 3.3 twin turbo.

Long story short, in our area we have this homeless guy that pushes his cart and walks on the edge of the roadway all the time, day and nights. His name is Troy. He’s a very nice and respectful guy. When I see him walking close to the roadway it worries me for his safety. So yesterday I stopped and gave him some refreshments out of my cooler that I keep in my truck. I also gave him my safety vest and asked him to please wear it when he’s walking down the road. Well low and behold I seen him... Read more

Deciding between .1 and .2 GTS coupe (PDK) as a weekend car. If you could choose, which would you choose and why? Which is more reliable and and which will be more sought after?

For my '71 Demon, I pulled these two pieces out from somewhere but don't remember where they go. I looked on the web for replacements but don't see any that match up with the shape. The yellow one is pretty much shredded but the dark one is pretty much intact. There's also a hole punched in it for maybe an optional something. The angry cat in the picture is for size reference.

Guys, I was thinking of getting recovery hooks for LC300. Then I went under and found this hook assembly. Is this a factory recovery hook? Looks like it is attached to the chassis and pretty sturdy.
