Look at the Grado prestige line. Decent sound and not insanely priced.

What Nukeman said. If you hit hail when driving at 70mph , the angle with least damage is going to vary. Small diameter hail falls more slowly than large diameter hail because of different surface area to mass ratios. The difference might be somewhere between 40 mph (small with damage...

Higher speed rated tires have stiffer sidewalls in general, so they handle better. But there are some nuances, such as how well the tire handles bumps and the noise it makes. Most importantly (for safety) is traction, especially in wet, snowy, and icy surfaces. Lower profile tires are more prone...

Fixing your old vehicle is a lot cheaper than buying a new one. $600/mo payment =$7200/yr, plus the additional cost of insurance for an old car. Don't buy a new SUV. Let someone else take the depreciation hit. Consider buying a 3-5yr old SUV or pickup for towing, and get a 3yr old Toyota, Mazda...

Regular is $1.30/gal cheaper at Costco in Michigan. California pricing is awful.

There are ipad pro's and ipad airs, but no ipad air pro.

In Michigan you can only purchase alcoholic beverages without a membership. Same price.

I prefer the 29'rs, they are better over rough ground and usually have a little more clearance. You can also use them if you want to go fast on gravel or pavement, especially if you can lock the shocks.

Dealers make money on financing, sometimes as much or more than the vehicle. That is why you sometimes see higher interest rates vs a credit union.

The name brand products are all so good that it should not matter what you use, as long as you follow the viscosity and OCI recommendations of the vehicle's manufacturer. Some turbo and high performance engines are spec'd for synthetic because of higher temperatures. Most oils are synthetic...

Costco claims to put extra injection cleaner into both regular and premium fuel, just like the other TT vendors. In any case, where we live it is at least 20c /gal cheaper, and often around .50c . Of course, we end up buying more at Costco which is the point of the cheaper gas. I mostly like...

We have a one humanpower shovel. Runs on craft beer and even works in deep snow.

Owner satisfaction has little to do with mechanical reliability these days. People's major complaint is that their infotainment system won't pair with their phone, or the menu structure sucks.

Merging with Tmo is better than going out of business. Sprint has been bleeding money for years

Arris used to be Motorola , and was the largest maker of cable modems for a long time. Unless you have Gigabit service, just get the basic model and add your own wifi access points. It costs around $70...

Cars are designed for the Chinese and American markets. Rear seats have become much larger and more comfortable because of that, and styling has been largely dictated by fuel economy standards. Most engines are <2.0L because of additional taxes in countries like China, and the rush to electric...

Ubiquiti would be my choice for non mesh units. You usually need to run 2 or 3 access points in a larger house, depending on construction. Homes with cinder block, cement, or plaster interior walls will need still more because wifi cannot penetrate. Depending on your location, you might have a...

We both get stuck behind the old lady going 25 in 35 zone.
