    Input on "best" refrigerators on the market wanted

    I currently "consumer home test" units for Whirlpool (who also owns Kitchenaid, Maytag, Amana, Jenn-Air, and Consul). Whatever models you look at, be sure to closely inspect the icemaker functionality. I'm on my third unit this year because the icemakers keep breaking. Also, many newer units...

    Amazon: "You're the next stop"... but I'm not.

    Your box was probably loaded on the wrong shelf. He will (hopefully) deliver to you when he finds it. Unless he thinks he is too far to double back. (Former delivery guy)

    Pesky new car dealer fees

    You might want to give the State a call. They don't think highly of dealers lying about what the State fees are. They offered to call the dealer on my behalf.

    Pesky new car dealer fees

    Also, I spoke to Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services at 517-284-8608. They were very helpful in explaining what is and isn't allowed. They are the folks that enforce the Doc Fee law.

    anyone try the new Costco AA and AAA batteries?

    The new ones have a outer wrapping that looks like is tighter sealed at each end than the old ones. Might mean nothing, just an observation.

    anyone try the new Costco AA and AAA batteries?

    I bought some AA recently, so I can't yet comment on the longevity or leakage. I can say they are different (either new design or new vendor). They look like they are specifically designed to minimize leakage.

    recent weed eater buyers-- i need one

    I got a Stihl FS56 C-E several years ago. It has bicycle handlebars and a nice shoulder strap. I bought the option brush cutter blade, and it can handle brush up to 1" thick. It's a beast. https://www.stihlusa.com/products/trimmers-and-brushcutters/homeowner-trimmers/fs56ce/

    Schaeffers 0w-20 3.2k miles / Honda 1.5l DI turbo 69k miles

    No thoughts on the oil, but gotta shout out on your user name. Had a girlfriend in high school who drove a Laguna S3 with the swiveling Strato bucket seats. You'd throw it in Park, open the door, and swivel the bucket seats 90 degrees to face out. I thought it was the coolest option ever offered...

    Garage overhead storage

    I have 3 of them, two different brands. As I recall, you locate your joist/cross bar attachment points and then the design has some flexibility to attach the horizontal "floor" to the vertical pieces.

    Recommend me a new Mower and Brush Cutter

    As for a brush cutter, I'd recommend a Stihl FS 56-C with the handle bar option. Add the solid brush cutter blade, and you can handle most any chore. I use it to take care of brush on a steep hill.
