Finally got to this vid, good as always Eric! Yes, I have the same problem…. But its not just my fleet. I get stuck with taking care of both my sisters cars, mom and dad’s (which is a fleet all on its own) and of course anyone else in the family that has problems…. Sometimes it feels like it never ends! Anyway, my fleet is as follows and of course everyone has its own tiny things that could use fixed but not detrimental to it being safe on the road.
2000 Buick regal -daily driver with over 322,000 miles on it
1983 Dodge 1 ton 4 door
1987 Chevy Monte Carlo
2007 Toyota Camry
1964 Plymouth Valiant
1969 Dodge ChargerThis was a great segment. This week my car, 2000 Buick Regal 3.8 non supercharged with 305,xxx miles, had the no heat problem. Started with the basics, checking fluid, bleeding system, check hvac fuses, etc… Still no heat. Back flushed the heater core and what looked and felt like pea gravel came out. I filled the heater core with water and flushed out with air probably around 15 times. Instead of using electrical tape to make a tight connection I used a piece of fuel line. It fit very tight and never had it come out of the heater core line.
Eric the car guy, you rock!!

Definitely a hoarder of parts… Senior year of high school my dream was to start my own junk yard. Made signs and word got out I took junk. So I filled the back couple acres at the parents farm with rows and rows of cars, trucks, motorcycles, buses etc.. Had a blast doing it and selling, using, making demo cars. Thank god we were so far out in the country… All gone now except for all the good stuff I kept. You are exactly right, the more room you have, the more you keep!

Hey Lindsey nice van!! I have one the same year with the same heart windows in the back! But instead of a bigger window on the driverside rear it has a mural of a lake with skiers! Which mine was as nice as yours!

Yep, the T-500 and GT-750 two strokes are fun, but the GS is just so smooth with great power delivery. Currently have the 1100 in the pic and 2 gs850’s a gs550 and a gs425

I’m glad to see the love of Ma Mopar on here!! My favorite car always was a 1969 Dodge Charger…..which I was lucky enough to buy when I was 15 for my first car. Nothing was cooler than going through high school in the late 90’s with that car! But other than that I would say a 1969 Coronet R/T, 1971 Charger Super Bee, and well, I guess just about any old mopar.
