    GTX Magnatec Is Back

    According to Castrol, both GTX FS and Edge have the intelligent molecules just like Magnatec did. Edge is their best and strongest oil. Someone on here posted the direct quote from Castrol Customer Service a while back.

    Toys you had as a kid and that you kept

    I had that same electric football game. Never completed 1 single pass and may have never scored a rushing TD either.

    Headlight Replacement, What Version to Choose?

    I have had terrible experiences with Sylvania regardless of which variety. They burn out much too fast for what we pay for them. If I remember correctly, even the cheapest basic bulb was over $20.00. I purchased Wagner bulbs from Rock Auto at about $2.75 per bulb and they have served me well. I...

    What would you take off if you were going into the water to save a drowning person?

    Depends on the situation. I took, and passed, the Red Cross Lifesaving class when I was in high school. One training exercise they made us do was jump in the deep end of the pool fully clothed. The weight of jeans and sneakers is beyond what you can imagine. If at all possible, I'm taking off as...

    Work SHOES? Any recommendations

    I have worn Columbia Newton Ridge hiking boots year round for years now. I'm not as big as you but they are as comfortable as a sneaker but still give ankle support and protection. I also had Plantar in the past so I always wear insoles to provide additional arch support and these boots easily...

    Lewis Hamilton to Ferrari?

    I read where Gene Haas said they have spent plenty of money, almost up to the cap, just haven't spent it properly.

    Android Cell Phone AntiVirus

    I use AVG on my Android phone because I also use it on my personal laptop and my work computer. Once you buy a subscription, it covers numerous devices. I've had viruses in the past on my computers using other AV products but never a problem with AVG. I'm cautious in my browsing but not saintly.

    Should gas stations be mandated to have chargers as well?

    Nope. Self serve is a no-no in NJ. We have people for that!

    Honda CR-V 1998 has annoying rattle near passenger airbag cover

    Perhaps you just moved farther away from the source of the noise. Try sitting in the back seat, maybe that solves the problem LOL!

    Arrowhead Stadium weather…

    There's a great clip I've seen from the 1980's I would imagine. Coach Marv Levy in the locker room surrounded by the team. Marv's yelling "WHEN IT'S TOO COLD FOR THEM..." and then the guys yell back in unison "IT'S JUST RIGHT FOR US!"

    M1 5W30 vs Valvoline Advanced Wear Protection ?

    I've always wondered what process is involved in the final mixture of base oil and additives and who makes the final decision and what's it based on? Do they start with a price point and mix around that? Do they just create an oil to pass the latest standards? Do they prioritize wear protection...

    Generator suggestions?

    When we bought a portable a few years back, Homelight 5000W, we tried the extension cord method. What a pain in the neck, almost literally. Shortly thereafter, we had an electrician hook up an outside receptacle for the generator to power our breaker panel. We turn off a few breakers and unplug...

    Those Cheating Orange Juice Makers

    When my kids were first born 30 years ago, that was one thing the pediatrician always stressed to us...fruit juice bad, water good.

    Anyone use PepBoys for oil changes?

    While I was sitting in a Pep Boys waiting room a few weeks ago while having tires installed, a younger guy came in for an oil change. He was quoted $117.00 for a Pennzoil synthetic oil and filter change. He had a coupon so he ended up paying $87.75 plus tax plus a disposal fee so it came to...

    RIP Gil De Ferran

    Just seeing reports that Gil De Ferran suffered a fatal heart attack while doing some racing alongside his son at a private track in Florida. He was only 56. Always a good racer and seemed to be a classy guy.

    Bad year with the deer.

    I leave my house at 4:30 am and see deer lurking on the side of the roads almost every day. They're the primary reason I don't ride motorcycles any more. I've had 3 deer impacts in my lifetime and always wonder the outcome would be if I had been on a bike.

    What time do you wake up on Sunday morning?

    M-F alarm is set for 4:10 am but I usually wake before it goes off. Out the door @ 4:30 to work. Sat alarm gets moved to 4:30 am for tennis. Still wake before it goes off. Sun turn off the alarm and still wake up around 4-4:30. Kind of a waste in the winter. Everyone else in the house has the...

    Neighbors overreacting or do I need my eyes checked?

    I walk most nights this time of year and it's dark. I wear a neon yellow and reflective vest along with a reflective hat. Both items cost a total of about $30.00. I see so many people out walking their dogs wearing dark clothing that it boggles my mind. Many people also tend to walk on the wrong...
