Kinja'd!!!

Got home today, parked in the garage and heard.... bubbling. Yeah, my coolant reservoir was boiling. Let it cool off, checked my dip stick and it looked ok. Wasn’t bubbling when cool but only when at temp. Picked up a new cap since my original was pretty rough looking. Attempted to burp the coolant system and got nothing but steam and a few blurbs of coolant. Will be messing with it more tomorrow .

While I’d love to grab a used 500 Abarth as originally planned, having purchased a home this year a truck is now in order. I’m leaning heavily toward this one, although I doubt it will fit in my garage.....

V10 gas! Holy hell. That thing will never pass up a gas station.

20,600 miles and it’s already had an engine rebuild? Either I’m extremely tired or there’s a zero missing from the mileage (or an extra one on the price...)

Buddy of mine said the same. My first truck was a 90 F150 with a 302 to which I moved to CT in 06... 2 gas tanks and $4/gal gas... Yeah I maxed out a few pumps in my time

I’ll definitely get some details. Something tells me it should be closer to 2k instead of 20k

$9800 seems really steep for a V10 with 200k on the odometer and a rebuilt engine. Imo.
