Get a fumoto, you'll never look back. Had them on all my vehicles, top shelf kit.

I like the fumoto valve a lot, put it on every car I get, never had a problem. I guess $3 bucks to put a washer in an envelope and mail it doesn't sound to bad to me, but I'm from Canada where we are used to overpriced shipping charges. I know it hurts when the shipping is more than the washer...

That's a flying squirrel, I had a go with them last summer at my place in Montana. They are smart I'm surprised you keep getting them in a havahart. You can fill any holes you see with copper mesh and black foam it, or cover it with metal sheeting. They only need a couple inches to squeeze...

I drove many years without winter tires, and it's definitely winter here for half the year. I got snow tires about 4 years ago and it's one of the best things I've done, should have done it sooner. Will always have a set of snow tires. Get a second set of rims so you can do the swap yourself...

I have a Subaru with a new FB engine in it. 1. There is an oil consumption issue with the new FB engines. I know. 2. Look in the owners manual, Subaru lists a quart every 1200 miles is NORMAL. They'll smile and tell you it's normal to add 4 quarts every OCI, almost as much as the engine takes...

Rule 1 Man Code: Don't frig with another guys vehicle in anyway. Safe and simple. I'd hate to see what you do to a non-buddy. Life's busy enough for your 'buddy' without you doing [censored] like that.
