I'm tired of them with the exception of Kate;)

He looks pretty calm. If it were me and I didn't do it, I'd be freaking out!

Mobil 1 might get jealous! They've had a pretty long standing relationship with Porsche. Probably afraid they're going to get dumped for the younger, more exciting motor oil with nice cans (or bottles).

Had the pleasure of seeing Slamming Sammy, Kinser and the rest of the Outlaws at Flemington Speedway a few times. After years of watching the stocks on that track, the speeds the Outlaws put up was mind blowing. Heading down the front straight, engine absolutely SCREAMING, I literally didn't...

Thanks, I've seen that mentioned in some of the install videos also. That won't be a problem as long as I can find it! I might just consider taking a step back in time and installing a door knocker and a peep hole and call it a day!

That I know but those spacers are designed to mount onto the outside of the siding. I need to fill a gap on the inside of the siding.

I was gifted a "wired" Google Nest camera/doorbell. My house has vinyl siding. Where the current button doorbell (and wires) is located is where the Nest will go. My problem is that there is about a 1/2 to 3/4 void between the siding and the house so that when you push on the button the siding...

Do they subtract horsepower if your monthly car payment arrives late?

My Honda consumes more oil when I run Pennzoil Platinum which is GTL based. It works fine in the other cars in my signature but they're newer and don't get driven like mine. Rumor has it that Quaker State has some GTL in it too since they're both Shell products. My current fill of Castrol GTX...

The extent of my motor oil knowledge is basically from what I have read and learned on this site. That said, it amazes me that there are any significant differences in oils of the same grade to even be concerned about. Castrol, Pennzoil, Mobil, Valvoline have all been around for over 100 years...

I still remember being behind a teacher ( I assume) once who was buying 24 notebooks. Only problem was that they had a limit of two per person. So, the cashier rang up 2, take the cash, give the change and the receipt, ring up 2 more, take the cash and give the change and the receipt, ring up 2...

If that's the criteria, Mobil 1 will win in a landslide. Castrol doesn't send anything. I asked them recently for some oil change reminders. They told me they don't do that but maybe if I went to a quick change location that uses Castrol, maybe I could get some there. FWIW, I live in the same...

Back in the day when oil was only available in single quart containers, I bought a brand new blue, kerosene-labeled 5 gal metal jug to recycle my used oil. The first time I brought it to R&S Strauss Auto to recycle, the counter-man wouldn't accept it since it was in a "kerosene" container. I...

I just used Magic Eraser last weekend and it worked as well as any $35.00 kit that I've used before. It's quick, easy and cheap. Put some quick wax on them when done and I'll see how long it lasts. If I have to do them every few months, so be it. I highly recommend it.

A few years back, when Rt 3 by Met Life Stadium was under construction for what seemed like forever, Sanzari, the construction company, hung a huge banner across an overpass. It read "The Road to Success is always under construction". It was only there for a few days and I always wondered if an...

25 miles each way on mostly Rt 46 and Rt 3 in northern NJ heading towards NYC. Leave the house at 4:30 am so no traffic. Takes about 25 minutes. Coming home, lots of traffic. Takes about an hour. Sometimes less, sometimes more.

Only as needed!

Every morning when I'm loading my pants pockets on my way to work at 4:30 AM.... cell phone, check. Wallet, check. Pocket knife, check. Keys, check. E-Z Pass transponder, check. Wait, what?

Good year for the Penske organization and Pennzoil with championships in both NASCAR and IndyCar.

'08 CR-V with 278,000 miles. 5W-20 or 0W-20 all its life during all 4 seasons. It does consume about a quart during a 5000 mile OCI.
