    Cobb AP with EQT Stage 2 ECU/DSG tunes.

    My car was totaled a few weeks ago. Cobb AP V3 was uninstalled from my 2017 Golf R DSG. Comes with all of the paperwork and accessories. AP was never mounted in the car, just used to check engine vitals a few times and install the tunes. See the photos for more info. Paid $1,400 for everything -...

    Suspect steals Winnebago RV and crashes into my R

    Yep, about a month. The hard part is, I’m already out thousands of dollars immediately. Even if I bought the exact same car, at the exact same price, with the same down payment, and financed the exact same amount - my payment would still go up $50-$70 a month simply because interest rates are...

    Suspect steals Winnebago RV and crashes into my R

    Hoping to get a call from Progressive today or tomorrow. I’ll know what direction to go once that conversation happens.

    Official APEX VW VS-5RS Forged 17" & 18" Wheel Thread

    Depending on what happens with the insurance company, I may be one of the first to take advantage of the replacement policy on these wheels. I know for sure two are damaged. I haven’t looked at all of them. Pretty sure the car is totaled. Really bummed. Stolen car smashed into me.

    Suspect steals Winnebago RV and crashes into my R

    Thanks. Being that neither my daughter or I were hurt, I think that’s what stresses me out the most. I know I’ll never get back the amount of money I put into the car, but trying to get fair market value alone - never mind the thousands in aftermarket parts and countless hours I put in working...

    Suspect steals Winnebago RV and crashes into my R

    Can’t make this stuff up. Slowing for traffic at a freeway interchange, going about 55mph. Winnebago RV doing about 85mph smashes into the rear of my car and sends me sideways into a guardrail. Driver gets out - clearly SMI - pajama bottoms, prison tats, and dreadlocks down to his waist. Starts...

    Prices back down to earth

    I just think it’s interesting to see why things are currently happening based on past decisions that have been made by lenders/sellers/buyers.

    Sport Trucks (or at least trucks that aren't 8 feet in the air)

    Owned a 2018 manual Tacoma TRD and traded it for a 2019 auto Tacoma TRD. For car guys, the Tacoma is an awful vehicle. The trans/engine/tuning combo are terrible. Has a Camry engine, tuned for fuel economy, and the transmission seems to have a mind like a skittish house cat. I couldn’t take it...

    How much time to budget for a Thermostat replacement

    It’s a pretty straightforward repair. Hardest part is accessing it bc of taking off the intake manifold. I bought my car used with 24k miles, drove it about 50 miles, and immediately replaced the water pump/t-stat housing. I cleaned the intake valves while I was in there. Took an afternoon and a...

    Mustang Dark Horse

    This latest rendition of the mustang has really caught my attention, particularly the Dark Horse edition. Once pricing is announced, I may weigh my options and ditch the Golf R. I miss a V8.

    APR Stage 2 to Stage 3 Golf R. Reliable or not?? Optimum power / torque level?

    I’ve searched and read and read over the last year or so. What I’m reading is max 420 lb/ft torque and 500hp will keep the motor together. That sound about right?

    Official APEX VW VS-5RS Forged 17" & 18" Wheel Thread

    Two more, just because… black doesn’t stay clean for long in the dusty desert. The ride has definitely improved going from a 19” wheel to a 17”. Also noticed launching it with the 255’s barely chirped the tires where before with the 235’s broke loose through second gear.

    Automatic Front and Rear Braking

    Had cruise control on last night and a small box blew across my lane. It beeped and hit the brakes pretty hard - scared the crap out of me. Foot was not on the brake at all.

    Official APEX VW VS-5RS Forged 17" & 18" Wheel Thread

    Same here. I never got a tracking number. They just showed up, which was fine by me!
