    Anyone Driven Snow Compounds this time of the year

    I’d just drive very carefully to and from the shop.

    2025 Toyota 2.5L Engine Oil Viscosity Update.

    We had a pretty good experience buying our Carnival last year. However, a couple days before we picked up the vehicle I was taking with the service manager (he was offering an extended warranty and discussing maintenance), and he stated that in order to maintain warranty we had to have the...

    Sebring is awesome. Went there in 2017 for the 12 hours, would love to go back.

    Healthy eating....or so we thought....

    I heard Country Crock wasn’t 100% synthetic, but mostly group II and III.

    Effect of wildfire smoke on air filters?

    I never smell the smoke, but I do see the haze.

    Burying an ethernet cable across the yard, how do I do it?

    Whatever you end up doing, I'd use direct burial wire. Has a much stronger jacketing that's meant to be buried without conduit.

    Can my Lexus 2016 NX 200t 2.0l turbo using Mobil 1 ESP 0w-20 ?

    The ESP has slightly lower KV100. Maybe it’s just slightly thinner overall. In real life I don’t think the pour point and flash point differences matter. It’s thought that the Edge EP has little or no PAO, while the ESP has some. But both have a slew of Euro approvals, and are both great oils. I...

    tru with michelin

    All tires should be replaced by 10 years. Regardless of mileage. Because they degrade and do things like… dry rot. Rubber doesn’t last forever.

    Effect of wildfire smoke on air filters?

    I had a feeling the smoke particles were too small to be caught by a filter.

    Effect of wildfire smoke on air filters?

    This past week, and especially today, our air is very hazy because of the Canadian wildfires. This is the third year in a row where we'll have a prolonged period of poor air quality and visible haze from the fires. It got me thinking what effect this smoke has on the air (and cabin) filters. I...

    Another "First Oil Change" Thread

    You’ll be fine. When we bought our Carnival last year, we went on a long road trip within a few weeks of getting the vehicle. Had only a few hundred miles on the ODO when we left. I made sure to turn off the cruise control every few minutes, decelerate like 10 mph, then accelerate again. I...

    Loitering Drones

    For me, no. I’d leave it alone. I live in a small town, but there’s always stuff going on, we have a few kids in the street, etc. I’d assume someone was just flying it for fun without malicious intent. But if I lived in the sticks, I’d likely be suspicious. I’m more annoyed by drones at the...

    Check your laundry washer hoses.

    This is a helpful PSA. My washer hoses are around 10 years old. I think it’s time. I have to ask though, why does the ID of the hose affect the wash cycle? If anything it’ll just take a couple seconds longer to fill the machine before the cycle starts/continues. But the cycle should run normally...

    Someone explain the EZ Pass toll program to me

    Yep, $147. Traveled from Michigan coming across 80 in Ohio and exited at whatever mile marker is closest to E-town. Then drove back.

    Someone explain the EZ Pass toll program to me

    Just got my bill from our trip to E-town PA last month. I know PA tolls are high but my goodness! $147.04 was the bill. I decided to halve that bill by signing up for EZ Pass and funding it the minimum amount (plus the first year's fee of $3). Even if I don't use it again, it will take just...

    Walmart EverStart Platinum AGM online purchase and delivery experience

    Good to know I’m not the only one haha. It’s a shame, because it’s a good battery at a good price. Worth it I suppose.

    Walmart EverStart Platinum AGM online purchase and delivery experience

    I bought a Platinum AGM from WM last year, and mine was also packaged incredibly well and shipped directly from the warehouse. I was impressed. Only issue was that getting my core refund was nearly impossible. The tire/auto center could not figure out how to give me my $12 back when I gave them...
