Due to illness, have not been able to drive (from Florida) to visit family in Western NY, or to Central NM. A good friend just returned to Florida from Wisconsin. I asked him if he saw any EV Charge Stations either on his way North, or on his way South. SAW NONE. I have no intention of...

Passed my local Buick/GMC Dealer today. Very few cars on his lot. Why? Only answer I get from sales person is that they sell a lot of cars. I know he is not truthful (puffing). Ford dealer across the street Also low on cars Is it something to do with parts or chip shortage? Kia and Hyundai...

Just purchased on sale, six quarts of Peak Full Synthetic SAE 5W-30 Dexos1, Gen2. (API SN-RC SN ILSAC GF5, dexos1 Gen2.) $4.25 a quart. Any good? BTW; what does the RC mean in the "SN-RC"?

Was visiting a Mercedes dealer yesterday (thinking about buying a 2012 or 2013 E350 Convertable [Cabriolet]) and saw that their parts department has quart bottles of Mobil-1 M for sale. Can't remember the oil weights but the "M" stood out. Is this oil any different from the M-1 you can buy...

Thinking of buying a set of Michelin MXV4 tires. I now notice that the MXV4 sometimes says Energy and sometimes Primacy, although not in the same tire size. What is the difference?

Purchased a small kit ($7.99) at my local Sea Plane base in Tavares Florida. Just a glass tube with various lines molded in the tube. Add water to the water line. Add gasoline to the gasoline line. Shake and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes, then read the line where the water now sits. These lines...

A few years ago, when I owned an 05 Chrysler Sebring Convertable, I purchased a gallon of Mopar coolant. Never opened it. Sold the convert long time ago, but still have the gallon of coolant. (this is NOT the premixed stuff). A few days ago, I decided I was going to change the coolant in my...

Just returned from a little vacation, driving out to Roswell NM, Phoenix AZ, San Diego CA, Albuquerque NM, back to Roswell NM, then back home to Central Florida. While on vacation, I read somewhere on this forum that K-Mart had M1 on sale for $5.00 a quart. Well I returned a few days ago, and...

The Autocraft Titanium Battery in my wifes 02 Continental gave up the ghost. Decided to get a new one. Looked all over for the recept when I purchased it back in October, 2007 at Advance Auto. Could not find it, but went to AA anyway. Well they had me in their computer and saw that the battery...

I know that PP switched from Group-IV to Group-III a few years ago. Just wondering about P-Ultra. Is it IV or III?

The town next to mine, Tavares Florida has redone their lakefront, and developed a SeaPlane landing area and docking area. Went there yesterday, and the whole area is beautiful. Just a few boats tied up plus a Seaplane also tied up. Walked out on the docks and saw they have two gas pumps. One...

Had my sister and brother-in-law visiting me in Florida. Their 2005 Ford Freestyle was making a strang noise whenever he made a turn. They at first thought it was the transmission, however I told him to turn the steering wheel while standing still, and it made the noise. Looked under the hood...

Last September, I installed M1 0W-40 to my Genesis. When first installed, there just was something I did not like, that I could not put my finger on. As the weather cooled here in Florida, (never cold, just cooler) I noticed that when I started the cold car in the garage, I could hear "tick...

In reading past posts, I still have not figured out if Castrol Edge is any better than other Castrols (GC) or other brands. Has anyone figured out yet if it is a Group IV or Group III? I found some on sale at $4.99 a quart (regular $6.99) so I could not help myself and purchased 7 quarts. I...

I'm starting to use my headlights in the daytime when I run two lane roads. Want to know if my stock HID headlights wear out quicker than regular headlights. FWIW, I promised my wife I would keep them on when on two lane roads, as I've lost two friends, in two accidents within the last two...

Took my Continental to my local L-M Dealer today for an oil change. (Coupon) While there, I checked out the 2010 Lincoln MKS and MKZ. Basicly the same engine (MKS 3.7, MKZ 3.5) so because I used to own a 2007 MKZ, and hated the AWF21 transmission, I decided to check the plate on the B Piller to...

Every time I go to my local Walmart, I always check for the M1 0W-40. Have not seen any for many months. I still have some that I bought a year ago, but have not seen any lately. Does M1 still make it? Does Walmart carry it in any of their stores?
