    Gift Binoculars!

    This is it. Description is accurate on its capabilities. I've seen all of that. 2 of the coolest is the 4 star Trapezium in Orion Nebula and storm clouds on the surface of Saturn.

    Gift Binoculars!

    Local astronomy club Astro physics 6" refractor with a binoviewer looking at Mars during a public viewing session got me hooked. The clarity and detail was unreal. I have a 14" SCT on a Losmandy G11.

    Gift Binoculars!

    Have a look at Jupiter, you will see planet detail and its moons. Saturn will show you the rings at 20x power. Orion's Belt and its nebula, good targets as well. Pleidies is a good cluster at this time of year to view. A couple more of my favourites, Alberio, the binary star color differences...

    Frying Pan Suggestion

    Carbon steel seems to be gaining a following. Depends on what coating, if any you're looking for. I would look at the "Made In" brand in any case.

    Recommend me a lawn mower and leaf blower and edger

    With your size of lawn and if you plan on staying for a while, I would go electric all day. I have a Stihl as trimmer, Craftsman gas 7HP mower and gas Hitachi blower. Seriously considering going to all electric just for ease of use. Have a Stihl gas chainsaw that I can never get started start...

    Best laundry pre-treat to remove old Honda DW-1 fluid stains?

    Try treating with a plain cooking oil like canola or sunflower. Oil dissolves oil, but the cooking oil is easier to wash out. Then a regular clothes detergent.

    What is wrong with this tire?

    Looks like impact damage to me, and they are close to wear bars, probably 5/32nds or so. I wouldn't run them much loner. What is the date code on them. Looks something like "3221" as a sample.

    PSA: Ram Trucks, check your emergency roadside jack bolt.

    Or it could be a lack of maintenance by the owner. If that bolt is that rusted, what does the rest of the truck undercarriage look like? An example of one, but my vehicles get Krowned annually, which should take care of this issue as a preventative measure.

    Toyota Hybrid 2.5l oil options? Anything new?

    This Canadian video shows 0W-20 as the factory requirement/recommendation at the 5:12 mark. If it was my Highlander, I would use Castrol EP or Mobil 1 EP, at 5,000 mile OCI and a factory filter.
