    Good Aftershaves/Shaving Stuff/Personal Fragrances - Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements.com

    I can't recall how I got turned on to Cremo, but it is tops. I gave a tube to my brother YEARS AGO and he's still thanking me. I still use a foam shave cream once in a while to "break it up". The razor indeed cuts differently and my underwhelming bearding sprouts a tad differently. Why I do...

    What are you eating right now?

    1,185 pages in and I bet nobody has mentioned the herring in sour cream I regularly enjoy for breakfast. Today, as I cook a hunk of salmon for a "salad" (think: your favorite tuna salad with salmon subbed for the tuna), as part of a ruthlessly low carb -and successful- diet.

    New Engine In This Jeep Gladiator & It Turned Into An Absolute Nightmare!! (long video)

    1) The "firey est hoops" we've ever had to jump through". I'm not making fun, it just sounded funny. 2) Buying a Stellantis car today might be universally risky...and that's sad. Besides "letting someone else take the hit (full new vehicle price)", horror stories like this often make a good...

    Does brand of ATF matter?

    Yes, comparing the recipes would be interesting. With ATF, it's always whether the fluid is correct and clean. Maybe the HM has seal swellers?

    Does brand of ATF matter?

    Spec matters. ATF brand doesn't, substantively. No, all ATF is not synthetic these days. High mileage and extended protection are attributes more often associated with motor oil than ATF.

    Battery replacement estimate

    Dorman to the rescue! Speaking for myself: The complete absence of any battery standardization or consumer grade primers on battery production or maintenance are plenary red flags in EVland. Fleets of vehicles all over the world should have been deployed for years before the consumer was...

    XL vs SL

    It seems these are all questions of degree. How much more stiffly does an XL ride? How much louder are they? Do you even track your fuel mileage? Would anyone notice the difference between them re fuel use? I like the idea of a beefier tire too. What size is your Versa's tire?

    Finally captured- a picture of the BITOG official ground and air fleet- together

    Yes. The disgusting Disco days. Not that there is anything wrong with going out dancing, it was that Disco was such a bad attempt at looking European. I lived in the epicenter of Disco at the time and believe me, not everyone was "DOing IT" ("Do the Hustle" lyric reference).

    Average car Overfilled 1 qt. anyone ever see this cause a problem?

    I would assume, with the history of mass-produced products we all grew up with, there'd be an "Acceptable Overfill Table". Then again, perhaps such a table would prompt stupes to grossly overfill?

    Average car Overfilled 1 qt. anyone ever see this cause a problem?

    An automotive pal built his '89 5.7...he did the "383 conversion" rather well. He told me the SBC was known to readily accept a quart over. That alone makes me think this question (overfilling, OK?) is answered case by case.
