I just serviced the front and rear dif on my Xterra, the front called for a 80w90 and I used the Valvoline 75w90, the rear called for 75w90 but I ended up using the 75w140 instead since I couldn’t find any more qts of the 75w90, looks like the MPG will have to take one for the team again. Anyway...

2012 Nissan Xterra 148k Out: Falken wildpeak HT02 265/70/16, all 4 are worn and need something more aggressive In: Firestone Destination MT/2 265/75/16 The MT/2s tested well on tire rack also has a decent looking tread pattern that should be more than sufficient for my weekly logging road...

My 2012 Xterra same engine, very solid built suv that will go anywhere, I’m looking to swap the M226 locking rear from the Pro4x model but honestly the forestry roads I take for trout fishing don’t require it

Apparently his insurance didn’t accept any offers and I’m assuming is just taking the driver to court

He doesn’t and that’s what my brother had to do it’s his home, the driver is over $220k in damages and only had $50k in coverage

I feel for you, a drunk driver totaled my crown vic which was parked outside, it’s been 5 months now. I was originally quoted $6529.50 is what they appraised it at, awesome I only paid $3800, first offer was only $1200 I laughed and told them absolutely not because before this I was dealing with...

Small update, we’ve had an unusual amount of rain today and so far the wet traction and handling feels very nice. Have hit multiple spots this week with standing water on the road and zero issue with hydroplaning, also the tires feel very surefooted at 60mph on rather curvy roads so not the most...

Well won’t be giving an update today on performance, the winter weather ended up being pure freezing rain, regardless of the tire nothing aside from chains or studded winter tires will perform well on pure ice

After looking it up 03B appears to be the Dayton TN plant

Not sure here’s the DOT numbers

Go with an all weather tire, it sounds like you don’t need a dedicated winter tire but do need something capable of handling its self during the occasional winter snow. I just had a set of Nokian Encompasses put on my car, have yet to test them but the level of siping compared to my all seasons...

Just got a fresh set of Nokian Encompasses put on the Crown Vic at a local DT. Hopefully will have some winter weather this coming Monday to put them to the test. They look pretty solid and should be hands down better than the all seasons I had on before.

About 500 miles on this full of HPL 5W40 HDEO (CK4) engine was cold

Primarily Amsoil, now HPL

My ecoboost is at 152k miles and I have only ran 15k +/- intervals, zero issues with the car and I’d be willing to wager it’s in just as good of shape as the 3k OCI club members
