Watching Everybody Loves Raymond while I wait for the oil drip to stop. Oil change time for the Canyon.

When I was 12 or 13, my parents and I embarked on a road trip from Wyoming to Florida to see family. It was in a 6-month-old '82 Chevy C10 Silverado regular cab. We were traveling through the midwest and filled up at some gas station, I don't recall where, and about halfway through that tank of...

I wish more people would sit down and do the math on this before they jump. It will take a very long time for an EV to pay for itself in this manner... Likely much longer than they'll actually keep it.

RIP to the pilots, thankfully no one else was on board and no one on the ground was hurt. Will be interesting to see the details of why the plane veered off the runway. This could have been uneventful but seems as though something happened during landing...

Bewitched reruns. Specifically, the one that introduced Paul Lynde as Samantha's driving instructor. 😄😅😂😆🤣

So everyone's just flatly refusing to build and sell a body-on-frame compact pickup.

Funny to think that my '93 Shadow had an under-hood light, 2026 Mazda....nada. Not progress in my eyes, but I'm a minority in my family and circle of friends.. I actually open my hood.

Super entertaining when the ball hooks around the bumper bar of the car that hit them and everybody's jumping up and down on their cars trying to get them separated enough to pull the pin. 😆

'15 Canyon, 90K miles, 3rd change, Redline 75W-90. Diffs seem to be happy, they're quiet, very little material on the magnets and the fluid looked great.

And drive these vehicles around with bald tires on them.

After denying me use of the AC Delcos I planned to provide, I thought he might put it on the estimate, but no. That's a question I'll have to ask later if I move forward with having them do it.

I'd love to hear you guys' opinion on this quote. Sun Auto in Wylie, TX. They refuse to use my dealership -purchased AC Delco spark plugs. Meanwhile, the transmission spill, filter & fill is $380 with my supplied GM filter and pan gasket. Eye watering coin for a spark plug swap, IMO. Thoughts?

More and more often, consumers are assigned the task of being beta testers for new cars. Not excited about the slew of issues that may await me in my new CX50. If I can get the bugs worked out, hopefully I can keep this car a very long time. I'm tired of being the beta. 😄

I was gifted with an employer who keeps our office on the rail line. 28 minute ride from my train station to my employer's door. I do feel blessed in this respect. Takes a little longer to get to work, but the commute home is much quicker. I wave at everybody as they're sitting still on Central...

I'm now riding the train to work every day, which only requires a 7-mile drive to the train station versus a 19 mile drive to the office. No more special trips to the grocery store, that's done on the way home from the train station.
