    Keeping workers

    Reality has changed for sure. My parents first home was a little over 1,000 sq ft and under $200k. A family with a single working father could afford a home. Now, the average home in the same area is 2,200+ sq ft and almost $600k. Rent on a just an average basic home is over $3k a month. I feel...

    Keeping workers

    These threads are always interesting. Every single time it’s the old guys complaining about how easy the young workers have it now. I think there is a lot of underlying jealousy and resentment that pay, benefits and worker safety are much improved. Would you rather people have low wages and no...

    HD Shotgun?

    I have a 590A1 and love it. Very accurate out of the box. Mostly use it for bear protection. I’d suggest your friend take a decent couple day class once he gets his shotgun. Just like handguns and AR’s, training is key and there is more to running a shotgun than one would think. Home defense...

    Dental implants - feedback needed

    I had implants done by a dentist that botched them(put screws in crooked) and they had to be surgically removed, bone grafts done and new implants installed. I had the dentist pay the best oral surgeon around to re do them and I’ve had no issues since. My only advice would be to have an oral...

    Went against the HOA

    I also do not understand why people who buy homes with a HOA complain about it after. We thoroughly read our HOA before purchasing our home and we agreed to it. Don’t like it, but a home without one. Lived in a neighborhood without an HOA and now live in one with an HOA (going on 4 years) and...

    Which Amsoil to use? I have a 2024 Silverado 3.0 diesel ...

    Mobil 1 ESP X2 0w-20 while under warranty or another oil with the Dexos D approval. Walmart carries the Mobil 1 for $32/5 qt jug and Walmart also sells the appropriate AC Delco filters.

    What oil can be used in a side by side engine?

    IIRC, there were some UOA’s showing the Polaris motors started suffering from fuel dilution at around 40 hrs which was the main reason for more frequent oil changes, not that the oil itself couldn’t go longer.

    Challenging read- Special ops soldier won’t face charges after fatally shooting civilian on his property

    No, I did not read all the comments. In that case it’s on the employer for being cheap and hiring a non English speaking worker.

    Challenging read- Special ops soldier won’t face charges after fatally shooting civilian on his property

    As a utility worker, who has a van wrapped in company logos and hi-viz clothing with the company name on them, if I run into a customer that doesn’t want me on their property(rare but it does happen) I say no problem and leave. The higher ups will contact law enforcement and we’ll come back with...

    What oil can be used in a side by side engine?

    Amsoil 5w50 and change it every 40 hours. I have almost 800 hrs on my 2017 rzr 1000, I do a leak down and compression test every winter and motor is still like brand new. Plenty of other SXS specific oils out there but the Amsoil is a great oil and cheaper if bought by the case.

    How does one vanish from society?

    Get off social media, get rid of cell phone, work misc jobs for cash under the table, not that hard to disappear. Plenty of slumlords that will rent without checking an ID. 99.9% of Americans couldn’t handle 1 day without the comfort social media brings them so they can’t comprehend how someone...

    Home natural gas disconnect

    I would contact the gas utility and let them know what you want, this is what I do for a living and there is a lot of misinformation in this thread.

    Dexos D alternative

    I’m also interested, we have a 2024 Suburban Duramax on order that should be here in a few months. I’ve been doing as much reading as I can on the different Dexos D oils.

    Chest vs. Upright freezer - which to choose?

    Have both and will be getting another upright. So much easier to keep organized.

    Mega 75w-90 testing thread!

    Edited: I didn’t read the last part of your post about the pour point. Thanks for testing those, I was really curious about the Valvoline which doesn’t look that great on paper.

    No haggle pricing vs. Negotiating

    Stupid people pay stupid prices. Trust me, I’m not a sympathetic individual. No one is forced to buy a vehicle and everyone has to sign the dotted line and own the choice they made. But this thread was about “fair” dealer practices and having a customer believe the interest rate they are given...
