Maybe a catch can, then dump it back in! :LOL:

Isn't the bottom 20% in the US is either unemployed, or working 60+ hours at 3 part time jobs just keep a roof overhead in a not great neighborhood, no vacations, kids at an underfunded school? Probably not much if any health insurance either? I would say there is no comparison between the...

Whatever works for you! We've got too many free range chickens, so I eat a lot of grass(or anything else they find appetizing) fed eggs. If you were a brick layer or roofer, I think you'd have to eat more calories and probably get into more carbs, but most of us don't do any real energy...

Any sources for this? I kind of think you are right but it would be interesting to see the differences in immigration policies. I think the situation in North America and Europe is quite a bit different, with land/housing being much cheaper here, and we still have room for both Canada and the...

No problem really, driving normally. You could take a lot of life out of them if you were carving up some winding roads, but don't do that and they will be fine.

Of the two, A for the location and lot, and lots of space to add a separate garage, but it looks like a few corners were cut in building and maintaining it, so I'd need to go through it with a building inspector. That area looks like quite a different place to live than what I think is ideal...

You are in Texas... With cloth seats, I don't really care if they are heated or not, and I'm getting into them below freezing most mornings for 5 months of the year. But I do agree that Toyota putting something as cheap to implement as heated seats in only the very top trims is amazing, as...

Should have no trouble at all with those. I bought some 6 year old unmounted snow tires that the local dealer had in the back of the storage room. They were like new and had no problems with them for the 3 years I ran them.

Yeah, purchases like this keeps a few young working guys from every buying a house or property... Or until they get older and wiser. On of my buddy's not so bright relatives bought a 2 yr old ram classic 1500 reg cab short box (4x4 at least), with some huge bling rims, financed for 5 years to...

Rwd, low CoG, weight, speed control, and traction would be my first concerns for hill mowing, then fuel type. In the 90's I used to mow near half an acre of steep hill with a few trees scattered on it, for a neighbor with his snapper self propelled and it was a work out as a fit teen. I almost...

Usually I dispose of old 2 stroke mix into the engines without cats, pretty much straight or mixed slightly, but if you don't have those, then I like Cujet's plan of 1 gal per tank in the f150. Then the chance for an issue is zero IMO.

S70 fwd I presume? It should match well with a decently reviewed off brand summer tire. I do get what you are saying, I think lighter rwd undertired cars are great fun in the right conditions. I car I found really fun below 60mph (in the dry!) was my Dad's 1991 Miata on dried out original...

I suppose if the goal is just to have the maximum chance of living to 85, then only having one instead of two major surgeries is best... But I would get in done now, do your PT and enjoy middle age, I would hope in 30 years the tech and risks for surgery would be much lower! My FIL had his...

Yes, I'm a bit prone to that, stretching out a tank to save $4-5... Haven't ran out yet from that though! I guess it adds up to couple hundred a year. A stuck gauge in the Neon got me once, but a few litres of gas from the house I stopped in front of, got me going in a couple minutes, and...

Not too often above 250 a day, but 200 is pretty common, but we have charging at work(level2 and fairly expensive though), so those days work fine. It's more the 200-300 mile weekend trips in the winter, as the range drops off, and you need a 110V overnight just to maintain range with a car...

I won't say I never break those rules, but its pretty rare, as gas stations are common enough on my regular routes. I think EV's are great in areas with mild climates, and lots of fast chargers. My area isn't that, and on a weekend trip, I don't usually stay at hotels with a charger, which are...

TBH I find plugging my car in, in the winter kind of annoying, so I don't bother. I would have to rethink my parking at home to get an EV plug easy to use. But given that, it would be probably be a minute on average to do the EV each day at home, at its about 5 minutes to fill up the car once...

Experience counts for something? :LOL: No? that's what my kids tell me, until they need something fixed... My example was, if you were going 50 you could out stop the same car with ABS going 55. So I try to use my experience to notice when I could need to do a panic stop, and slow down a bit...

Rope seal? I once had a GM 2.8V6 with a leaking main rope seal, and a can of GM branded sealer in the oil actually worked, for the 4 years I had it. I was at a smaller garage and the fellow recommended try it before replacing.

Age is just a number? ;) Getting up near 50 now, but still have decent reflexes, 20-15 vision , ok hand eye co-ord, but I need my boys to call their pitches now, when I'm back catcher, so I don't take a 4 seamer to the head! I was one of the quicker guys at my local autocross, and haven't...
