    Local Wal-Mart turned away oil change customer... no oil filters in stock for his vehicle.

    The closest Advance/AutoZone/O'Reilly's/NAPA to this Wal-Mart is a 20 minute drive (one way).

    A different customer had the F-150. Not sure what the guy was driving that they didn't have a filter for. I added a bit more clarity in my post. Thanks.

    Local Wal-Mart turned away oil change customer... no oil filters in stock for his vehicle.

    The main benefit is that it is close.... less than 5 minutes from my house. I quickly realized how they had screwed it up, that I am thankful for.

    Local Wal-Mart turned away oil change customer... no oil filters in stock for his vehicle.

    I was just out at my local Wal-Mart getting a new tire mounted and balanced (screw puncture in the sidewall... just outside of the tread). :mad: While I was there, they had to turn an oil change customer away because they did not have any oil filters on hand to fit his vehicle. They told him...

    Anyone else turn everything off when you stop the car?

    I work with a guy who sets the emergency brake every time he parks the car.... and it's an automatic.

    There has to be a better way to clean auto glass than using microfiber towels that leave lint

    I've never washed my microfiber towels in hot water. Room temperature water, no dye/no scent detergent, never with anything else.... just microfiber towels.

    Is BITOG Even Necessary Any More?

    I'm fairly certain, from what I've seen so far, if I use SuperTech Synthetic and change it every 5,000 miles... that I'll never need anything different as far as oil.

    I just saw two very substandard movies

    I haven't been to a movie theater in decades. Probably not missing out on much either.

    Oil Changes - Excel spreadsheet Oil Lab reports - ALS does it for me. I just have to log in.

    BluePrint Engines says to not go synthetic until 9000 miles?

    On Jasper engine #3, I ran Formula Shell conventional 5w-30 for the first 16,000 miles. It was changed every 3-4 months, which was required by Jasper's warranty. Every 3-4 months for me was anywhere between 1400 to 2300 miles. Used ACDelco oil filters. Jasper warranty required oil...

    Monday morning in a community bank

    Their rates aren't fantastic, but they're not horrible either... 3.5% on a one year CD, $100 minimum.

    Why do hotels put comforters/duvets on beds... year around?

    Call me old fashioned, but I don't need a thick quilted comforter/duvet on my bed in the summer. Why do hotels do this, year around? It is summer.... it is completely unnecessary. All that I need is a lightweight blanket, at the most. Step one... untuck all of the sheets from underneath...

    Not such an issue when one keeps one for several years or more.
