I tried mushroom coffee once. Only once. It does provide a smooth “buzz” but is almost undrinkable. An “acquired taste” to be sure.

I don’t believe that Mexico and Canada have a long term plan to crush the USA. I believe China does. Short and long term.

I agree 100% that dependence on China for anything more important than cheap clothes is a big problem. I don’t understand the trade war with Canada and Mexico 🤷🏻‍♂️. AFAIK, neither of those countries pose any threats to the US. Luckily, I put enough cash aside in January to last a few years...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_wiener It’s a Rhode Island thing, you wouldn’t understand…..🤣🤣🔥🔥

Maybe Ford can figure out how to build a compact truck with steelies and sell it for $24k ……….😳

Cadillac makes two awesome sport sedans, but the regular guy can’t afford them.

Checked out their EBay store. Not easy to shop by MMY of vehicle. One of the things I like about RA.

58 YO. I do all the maintenance, brakes, minor repairs on my 3 cars and my wife’s car. Oil changes for sibling and mom. Similar complaints as others about soreness and arthritis in hands, sometimes elbows. Biggest issue is something that started a few years ago. I get nauseous if I’m under a...

To quote the Wicked Witch of the West, “These things must be done delicately “

Stellantis in the USA is in the unenviable spot of having almost no product other than pickup trucks. (Chrysler, Ram, Dodge). Jeep has priced itself out of the (niche) market that it created. I’ve been a Mopar enthusiast for a long time, but the gutting started with Daimler, continued with...

I hope this investors thread stays open. I’ve learned a lot here.

@AI what model Mazda did you get?

Imagine if we had some serious incident with China or some other country, nd they cut off supply of blood pressure meds ( as an example) without warning. We got a taste of supply chain disruption during C19.

Tariff talk aside, we need to make pharmaceuticals here. It’s not safe to have vital drugs made overseas, especially by countries that are unfriendly to us.

I would add pharmaceuticals to that list. Scary how many vital meds are made outside the US. I don't like the recent uncertainty and drop in the markets, but I do think we need a plan to manufacture vital goods here. For national security reasons.

I’ve read how Miata’s are great drivers cars, and I have to say it’s not the fastest car I’ve owned, but it is the most fun.

Recently bought a 2008 Miata with the 2.0. Only 8K miles on it. Hoping the rods stay where they belong for a good long time. Watching this thread with interest. Should be interesting. Thanks for sharing the adventure.

My stepdad had an F150, and I did an oil and filter change for him. I was very surprised at the amount of surface rust on the underside. He parked it in a gravel driveway for years.

Maybe time for a fluid film treatment underneath????

Got the valve cover gaskets changed. Pass side is a huge PIA. Can’t come in straight with the cover, too much crap in the way. First attempt had a leak where I couldn’t even see it. Bottom rear corner. Must have hit the gasket on a rocker arm while trying to get it on. Not wanting to ever do...
