    Wonder what happen to my Power steering Pump.

    I drove my Dmax to take the trash to the dumpsters and I had to move my TT yesterday and after everything was completed I lost my power steering and Alternator. I parked the truck and opened up the hood and the belt was off. I have never seen that happen before so I let the motor cool off for a...

    New Computer

    Bought a new Dell to replace the stupid HP the company bought for my use. All I can say is wow. This machine is awesome. It features a i7 1.6 Ghz CPU by Itel that rocks. Comes with Win 7 and it should be a nice notebook. The only thing I didn't like is the Video chipset. It is a ATI Mobility...

    Brakes

    I don't really know how to describe this but after 252k miles I should expect a brake problem. I am still running original brakes, everything...pads, rotors, master cylinder, hydroboost, etc.....the truck stops ok, but is seems to take more effort into doing so, not to mention my pedal groans...

    DVD/CD Drives

    Can Malware/Spyware....etc.... prohibit a opitical drive from working? My DVD Drive on my XPS will not work and the Dell Service tech from overseas somewhere told me that it could cause a problem...never heard of anything like that before. They even ran a rogue Adware program called SpywareSTOP...

    I have decided to do something that the military does and alot of fleet owners do. I will change the oil when the lab says it is time. My brother drives a 18 Wheeler and they do oil changes only as needed. Filter changes however are done normally, I think there are 3 types of schedules they use...
