    Anyone tasting a decline in craft beer?

    Our problem is that everybody around here that opens a brewery is IPA centric. Thus it cannibalizes other breweries locally and before you know it most have gone out of business. Then another one opens and it's a repeat process. Combine that with how the taste buds of younger drinkers are...

    PQIA Test Results - AMSOIL SAE 5W-30 Motor Oil

    obviously I much prefer the Sig Series. OE isn't bad, but as stated above you can find more readily available (and comparable) competitors on the shelf for a better price even with the preferred customer discount. Our local owned quick lube place in rural America actually switched to OE as...

    Bye bye Valvoline EP

    i think you quoted the wrong person. I said earlier in the thread (page 6 post 115) that I’m running valvoline ep 0w20, which is far quieter than anything I’ve run except the Amsoil Sig and I have no complaints about the VEP. Edit: this is my 3rd Tundra with the 5.7. If you go look on tundra...
