    Mazda CX-5

    I have a new 2023 Select, non turbo. It's plenty spirited. I have to say the only thing I don't have that other models have is the sunroof. I would not own the turbo as there is nothing to be gained with it, and more to loose. The engine simply needs no Turbo. The interior is pretty nice. Mazda...

    Mobil Delvac Extreme 15W40

    I've used it in My Ram 3500 with the Cummins. Great results and effective oil. Its the only oil I've ever seen that smells like a Manhattan on the rocks. But don't drink it. LOL

    0w-20 oil at Kia dealer vs M1/PUP

    Hyundai-Kia has had hundreds of millions of $ warrantee claims over the years for engine failures. Dealers were inundated with warrantee claims and inspection requirements. I think KIA is willing to sell the cheaper oil change in hopes of customers taking better care of their vehicles, and so...

    Looks like an Idemitsu Oil. The Asian auto companies are partial to that oil, lots of Moly.

    ‘15 RAM 3500 Laramie Longhorn - 86k - Mobil Del Extreme - 11k

    The sample "Fantastic" posted was the Full Synthetic Mobil Extreme 15/40. I sent it in as a virgin sample before the oil was on the consumer map. I liked that oil a lot. That oil in the bottle smelled like a Manhattan on the rocks.

    What Window companies do you guys like?

    Well, living in Iowa, I'm partial to Pella. My wife and I spend a lot of time in that town. We have paella windows in our condo, they have beautiful wood working. BUT!! I must admit Pella isn't very good at supporting their product over time. When we lived in Illinois we had Andersons installed...

    2023 Acura - First oil change timing?

In the U.S. the oil is blended in Jeffersonville, Indiana. The Japanese want their Low Viscosity oils to have High Moly levels. Also Toyota...

    School me on Ceramic wash and coats

    Watch youtube "Pan the organizer" he is a detailer in Canada and reviews about everything on the market. He is a great source for info and education as he has a degree in Chemistry. Now Ceramic isn't so much the buzz word, its older technology now. Currently Graphene coatings are the new thing.
