Here's a email conversation that started out with me and a RP rep. asking about the source of the steel they use for their cans and turned into an oil discussion: ME: You do have a filter that fits my vehicle and thank you but no than k you on specifying an oil for my needs. I use an oil with a...

x2 on CR being the WORST....not only that but what "truck guy" is gonna take the time to participate in a CR poll?? It's the Toy and Nissan crowd that go for that junk. I had a 1990 Ranger with the 2.9L with 270,000 on it. Only reason it retired was flywheel chewed up newly rebuilt trans. Also...

Advanced had them BOGO all week, good luck at the truck stop they rake the truckers for all they can (not like the trucker will roll down to Walmart for a better price!)

lol...I gets THE worst MPGs from the "top tier" Shell gas station around here. Citgo and Exxon seem about the same as does Sunoco and BP. Used GE gas for years with decent milage.

I can get a sample of oil from a Cat powered Lowe's delivery truck. If you wanna send it to Blackstone you're more than welcome.

My name's wick and I'm a tire-a-holic....I too am a tire gazer.

Love those Michelin X tires! We use them exclusively on our delivery truck at Lowe's, in 22.5 of course! I have the Sears version, Michelin XC LT4, on my ZJ thanx to the PO and love them as well. I've had zero problems in rain, snow, ice, mud, even deep mud (ZJ quadtra-trac doesn't hurt...

Wife's car is a bit low on coolant. I'm gonna top it off when I look and it's orange. Now I know Dex cool you CAN"T mix other coolant in. But what about this? It's an 06 Scion. Prestone and the SuperTech coolant I have both say mixes with any brand and any color coolants. Thoughts??

Tires are fine, practically brand new still and like previously stated "they didn't pull this summer when brand new." Brake hanging up is good call. These are original pads still on a 4 year old car. Last check (summer) they were still okay but who knows now that wife drives car exclusively?

2006 Scion zero times back at Toyota dealer.

nice. thx for all the answers so quick. I thought of weight falling off, but seems not likely to have happened. Also, have thought of rotating tires to see if it remains. Thing is, it didnt pull before and they havent been rotated yet. Keep ya posted though.

Monroe is actually the same as Rancho and a few others: http://www.tenneco.com/OurBrands/

I took wife's 2006 Scion for a drive other day and it pulls to the left, like outta alignment. I went and had an alignment done and due said "it was out a little". I asked, "does it pull left?" he said "no". So I drive home, it's still pulls left. Went and checked/filled all four tire to proper...
