    10 Best Rock-Pop Guitarists Of The 1960s and 1970s?

    I’ve been lucky enough to see play a bunch of these guys mentioned, as well as many of the blues, country, bluegrass, and jazz greats. I was working a sort of all-star benefit show where Albert Lee was playing. We brought in a rented amp and it sounded terrible. One of the players asked if we...

    Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Limited making batteries in USA

    Yeah, I thought it was run by them as well. Funny CATL seems proud of their connection to Tesla. PECNA acts like their GF neighbors don’t exist.

    Ring camera/ doorbell— happy to have

    We’ve had a ring since the very early days. They’ve made a ton of improvements and the hardware is cheap and surprisingly robust. For wireless, our batteries last 2 months between charges. It’s great to keep an eye on things when away. Just picked up two outdoor cams with batts for $100. We now...

    Slate EV Pickup

    Do we have rose tinted memories of those 80’s-90’s VWs? I did love my first car, a 1980 rabbit, but it was so unreliable I got rid of it by 1987 with only 80k miles. Had to replace the fuse box, resolder wires in the distributor, rebuild the starter, respray the rusty bumper, and replace struts...

    question about Toyota lubes

    Ahh, the age old Toyota Transfer case lube question. I have no idea the differences these days, could it be Limited Slip additive? I saved a bookmark years ago on Lexus fluids, might be a place to look...

    Seatbelts in 1968

    In the ‘80’s I had a ‘68 Fury III 318 in the same color as the one in the vid. No shoulder belts either. My car was in VG condition and I sold it to a kid who took it back to Germany. I’ll try to find a pic.

    Fatburger. Done.

    I had no idea they took Fatburger nationwide. We would rarely go in the 80’s in LA. with all the other options around. I did have a great burger there once when I finally discovered they would charbroil it if you asked.

    Need new washer and dryer on budget

    We had to get a W/D in a hurry. We prefer the classic style top loader with agitator. Bought at Home Depot, delivered and installed in two days. Several days later Costco had the exact same models on sale. Ended up within a few dollars of the Home Depot price. The washer is big and loud, hard to...
