    Did i harm my new car with early oil change?

    Great idea, but I recommend that You-Tube go dark at the same time.

    EV lots getting cleaned out.

    And ammo. Not sure why, but yes always ammo!

    Cpap folks, what's going on with me?

    I was tested for sleep apnea and had 120 “incidents” in an hour. Never progressed to REM sleep and the DR estimate was I got 7 to 10 minutes of sleep a night. Any and all moments of stillness…no stimulation I would fall asleep. Simply stoping at a stop sign ..I would fall asleep. I embrace...

    Youtube Oil Experts

    I’m not sure what led to the decline of the Roman civilization…. But I am absolutely certain that You Tube will be responsible for the decline of ours.

    Trying to foam oil

    Someone is bound to say: “But oil is at 200 degrees in an operating engine”. Oh…I just did 😉

    What is the danger of using one of the newer oils in old vehicles

    Do it! Video it! This Has to be more scientific than: Can your engine run on Nacho Cheese dip instead of motor oil?

    Another Rotella foam thread

    Very high output / CC, very high RPM, gearbox thrashing the oil and all is fine…. But small block Chevys are foaming themselves to death on the same oil? I’m confused…you?

    My Costco running low on 0W-20

    Friday is a quite crowded day at our Albuquerque COSTCO. Go on Wednesday…HALF the crowd!

    Authentic military MRE’s: expiration date and favorites.

    Has to be a GI myth….like, “they put salt Peter in the food to prevent erections and sex due to the possibility of VD etc”. A platoon of guys with fecal impactions may be a big liability too….

    Graduated from my MBA last Friday

    I worked for 40 years in the. Texas Medical Center. Talking to the staff physicians at one of the medical schools there (3 now !) they said they chose that particular practice because they see patients, they teach but the University does 100% of the business. They don’t do billing, insurance...

    Handicapped or entitled? Not returning shopping cart

    I may be the ONLY ONE in North America who does this: As I walk into the store I grab one of the dozens of carts in the parking lot and use it in the store. I see scads of folks walking right past them. Maybe the same folks who abandon them in a space on the way out. If most grabbed one...

    Has there ever been a mainstream vehicle that holds its value as well as a 5th Gen 4Runner?

    BNW M Coupe. I bought a new one in 2002 for $38,5000 and sold it 12 years and 68.000 miles later for $38,000. Some very low mileage cars have sold for double their purchase price. A very low production model.

    Unbelievable Tire Shop quality

    I gave up on Discount Tire. They have Hunter Road force balancing machines but they NEVER stop and break the bead to shift the tire on the wheel to correct imbalance. They just balance as best they can as quick as they can. Same as you would in a simple non “road force” machine. A wheel repair...

    0w20 or 0w30 for Turbo Charged GDI Engines?

    Right, but “receipts” just prove you bought some oil and a filter…not that the maintenance was done.

    0w20 or 0w30 for Turbo Charged GDI Engines?

    You would think resetting the “oil life monitor” would do on recent GM vehicles. OnStar sends me a record of my oil life status every month…so they know when it changes. As good as a handwritten note in a ledger.

    0w20 or 0w30 for Turbo Charged GDI Engines?

    Not next but NOW! This pic printed and put in a folder for my 2025 COLORADO. Good enough for GM? I hope.

    first home purchase, with fiancee

    I would feel bad about my dad pulling 100K out of his 401K for me if I was considering myself an “ADULT”. Now if he had 3 MIL in there I would probably take the dough, 500k would be a no.

    “Test drives on public roads are not allowed”

    You know if that no test drive goes for “new” cars too…. That’s my kind of dealer. I hate looking for a “new” car to only find that every car on the lot has 300 miles on the odometer, especially for a performance car.

    Why do manufactures recommend/require the "w" and not leave it as optional?

    It actually automatically adjusts for load size. I’m up to date in the tech world….but I’m also an old rural, retired Boomer. So my only “whites” are those white socks everyone thinks we wear. Gosh, it would take 50 of them to make a small load. So the “mixed load” setting on the washer it is.
