    New truck!

    Today I say goodby to my 06 Envoy. It's been a great vehicle, and at nearly 12 years old, still looks new. Part of that is the low mileage (86k), and part of that is being a garage kept well maintained vehicle. Last night I purchased a 2018 F-150 supercrew. I've been looking for a while, and...

    "The EVIL Eye...."

    I've had glaucoma since my mid-20's, so I've almost always been to an opthamologist. Over 50 or bog, I wouldn't trust my eyes to a Target, Walmart or other highway eye place.

    XUV listed in Car & drivers "flops"

    It's easy for c&d to take pot shots at these cars after they fail. But with few exceptions, the vehicles on their list were all innovative. Without these "flops" and manufacturers trying new designs, we'd still all be driving the horrible square boxes we had in the 80s. As for my Envoy, it's...

    Pet Peeves

    Just read through all 6 pages, and love them all! What about pedestrians who stop in front of you in a cross walk to answer their phone, have a conversation, etc? "German engineering". A coworker is moving out of country and selling a Porsche and an Audi convertible. Was seriously thinking...

    Which actuator do I need?

    Used this guidance when I replaced the mode actuator in my Envoy. It went off without a hitch!

    Should buff right out, right?

    That really sucks for your mother in law. I hope she is ok physically and emotionally. Sounds like the thief got what they deserve.

    Snow, mountains, hills....isn't that what makes Vermont attractive?

    FOR SALE Trailblazer SS

    Not much information, and very little in the way of pictures. Also, being in Buffalo, I'd wonder what kind of chassis corrosion in May have.

    Unknown fluid leak

    MRRSM, you hit the nail on the head! BTW, I think Hardtrailz was joking, not too many folks analyze fluid by tasting it. Although, I do know a few people.... Anyway, because I'm finishing a large home project, we're using the Envoy to go camping next week, and I suspected others were right in...

    Unknown fluid leak

    ive had the vehicle since 35k miles and knew the original owner. The AC has never been worked on, do you think there would be dye in it? Unfortunately though, I think you're right about it being AC. There's nothing else in the area that makes sense. I'll investigate more this weekend. Thanks for...
