    Las Vegas tourism seems to be in deep trouble

    'Moe Green' would never have let this happen...

    The cost of living in 2024....

    Like buying a car....no 2 people pay the exact same for a college 'education'. I was lucky that my 2 kids got 'academic scholarships' because according to FAFSA my wife and I made too much money to get 'aid'. It still cost me about $40K a year ($20K each) for room. board, books etc...We left...

    Best Aftermarket Steering/Suspension Component Brand???

    I put Mevotech 'Supreme' sway end links in a Hyundai Elantra and I can say they weren't very 'supreme'.....didn't last long at all. OTOH I put Moog sway end links in my Corolla and they're still working well.

    store owner fires warning shot to scare off would-be robbers

    I remember during the Rodney King riots when Korean (I think) store owners stood outside their stores with rifles to protect their property. Sadly now in states like California these store owners would probably be arrested.

    QS Full Synthetic vs. QS Ultimate differences?

    Isn't QSUP sold only at Walmart? My guess is it has the same formula as QSFS but uses GTL instead of 'plain' Group III base oil.

    The South remains the largest gainer in migration.

    The crime rate in Tennessee is skewed because of Memphis.....New York because of NYC....Pennsylvania because of Philadelphia etc....I think Washington DC has the highest violent crime rate in the country.

    The South remains the largest gainer in migration.

    Actually...it takes a FAMILY to raise a child....the whole 'village' thing is nonsense IMO. There are too many children without 2 parents now and more often than not it's the father missing.

    The South remains the largest gainer in migration.

    Does the 'South' have a revolving door justice system like New York?

    The South remains the largest gainer in migration.

    Don't forget high taxes and high crime.

    Any good model car shops along I-75? All of it, from MI to FL

    You're right....my mistake...I was thinking about driving across from I75 to I95. Actually from Orlando across to Daytona you are past the worst of the journey....it's from I75 to outside Orlando that's bad.

    Supertech and other value point oils

    I agree....I'd never change the oil on a rented car but I would top it up if low for the reason you stated.

    Any good model car shops along I-75? All of it, from MI to FL

    I drive that route twice a year....Orlando is at least an hour from I75 (Daytona is another hour away) and is one of the busiest (traffic wise) roads in Florida and has the most 'deadly' accidents (according to a news article I read last year). If driven at off hours it's at least 4 hours back...

    Daytona is on the east coast of Florida off Interstate 95. I75 runs down the west coast of Florida.

    Any recent submersible well pump replacement quotes?

    My friend just had his done for $1800. IDK what depth it was at but when I lived near him mine was 190 ft. down IIRC. I didn't think $1800 was too steep being that everything in NY is expensive.
