We can do that...

No it's not too much with the right guy behind the wheel. It's not a race. Pull at a slow speed up and down the long steep grades. I get behind a slow semi and go his speed, usually 25 MPH both uphill and downhill. My goal going downhill is to not use my foot brakes, only the exhaust brake...

I got the waffle weave microfiber towels and they are exactly what I was looking for. They leave no lint on the glass!

That is one tractor of many machines. This one is in one of the buildings not quite visible in the tree picture.

Our house was also brought up to current electrical code. This includes better grounding and a whole house surge protector. Lots of lightning and zero problems. Old grounding code was much less stringent.

It's a Cooper & Hunter 2.4 ton (23,000 btu) unit - 21 SEER. The guy who sized it does that for a living. He really knew what he was talking about and the mini-split cools the second floor of the house effortlessly. The only variable speed units the installer will use is Cooper & Hunter and...

We put in a new mini-split AC/Heat pump 3 years ago. The AC efficiency (50% less electrical use) and quietness is so much better than the 25 year old unit it replaced. The compressor and condenser fan have variable speed motors and when running slow you literally can't hear them. The heat...

What was the reason for pushing the flush handle that violently?

And 5w20 can have considerably lower evaporative loss.

Binding the chain and forcing a link to go over center is mild compared to the force the chain resists when the engine is running 8k RPMs. Use it.

Please explain how 0w20 is stouter than 5w20 and which brand?

Yes, amazing contributions!

My new 6.2L Tahoe had the same idle hours when I took delivery.

@Astro14 how did you allow room for the filter to be changed?
