Why are there so many used engines available?

Danny Lehrman — Sun, 14 Jun 2009 12:39:22 +0000

One theory I personally hold true on the abundance of used engines is the usage of cell phones while driving. Not paying 100% attention to your driving and having an accident. It is my contention that there are way more wrecked cars in the engine salvage yards due to the distraction talking on a cell [...]

Brian is the owner of GotEngines.com and when we talked about what people are purchasing the most from his [...]

Lubrication Specialist or Home Oil Change?

Danny Lehrman — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 15:27:24 +0000

I have never seen the specifics on how many folks change their own oil and filter and how many folks take their car to a lubrication/oil change specialist. Considering it is a heck of a lot easier and in most cases less expensive to go to a specialist, there is little sense in doing a [...]
