Another Cars & Coffee:

Did anyone ever answer your question about swimming in fresh water lakes/rivers in Florida? I'm curious, because, I've vacationed in Florida probably 20 times in my life, and when I've been inland I've never seen anyone swimming in freshwater. I assumed it was because of the alligator danger. I...

I've had Michelin CrossClimate 2's on RX350 for about 8K. It's similar in weight to the Sienna. The tires look new, so, my expectation is that they will wear well. The RX rides and handles well with these tires. I don't think you need a truck/suv tire on your Sienna. I'm running mine at 36psi BTW.

I've had a couple of cars outright die and rust to pieces. In both cases a junkyard gave me $200 and towed it away.

For the last 25 years or so I've used the philosophy that if the battery is over 4 years old and you have any electrical/no-start issues then just replace the battery. Unless the condition can be explained by lights left on, or loose battery cable, etc. The philosophy has never failed me. Never...

The heat exchanger was replaced on my Lennox furnace due to a recall 24 years ago. Furnace is still running great with no issues.

I used the "support the engine with 2x4 under the oil pan" method when changing a motor mount on a Ford Focus. No issues with oil pan gasket.
