Pretty much any of the synthetic could handle this under the stated condition IMO. As other have stated, "whatever is on sale" is how I usually decide. Though for my specific engines, I have to say that Castrol Edge has become my new found favorite and eliminates most of the ticking found with...

I just bought a Diehard Marine battery from Sears this weekend and they told me that it was completely charged and not to open the battery under any circumstances. They said they would know if I did. This battery is replacing one from Napa that only lasted me but a year. That was with little to...

Which GPS is right for you? Right from the TomTom website. http://www.tomtom.com/page/ProductAdvisor&Lid=4

We kicked the can vegetables and have gone to the frozen/steamer type. They may cost more but we also seems to get more than one meal out of them. Less ground beef has been substituted with ground turkey. I've eaten more rice since going low-sodium that I had previously in my lifetime. We enjoy...

I got the Shell gas card just before it changed (receiving the 5% per gallon vs. the $.05 per gallon. I do miss the days of using my Citi Driver's Edge card where I was getting 6% on gas, groceries, and prescriptions. Another guilty party here of paying of the card monthly. I do however still...

Been using Norton product for years without problems and/or viruses. I also like how the newer Norton 360 allows you to upgrade to the newer version for FREE while you subscription is still valid.

I'm still a fan of the older versions of Ghost for hard drive (system) backups. As far a my offline backups to my external drive goes, I'm using Norton 360. I've played with Mozy and HPLine (no longer in use) but could never quite subject myself to the cost of online storage fees. Just saw the...

Having owned 3 300Ms myself and plenty of UOAs, you need to visit our club. Should have the latest results of my last UOA by next week. Otherwise as noted in my signature, I usually go 12K miles on our oil. Though we are primarily driving on the freeway. www.300mclub.org

Originally Posted By: Pablo Freestanding = good Most built in = decorative at best I'll confirm that my built-in is decorative at best. Yes, it will help heat the room that it's in but I don't feel as though it is cost effective. Not to mention the draft problems I have when it's not in use...

In these days of energy efficiency, I'd go with the electronic ballasts and fluorescent T8 bulbs. Since you've got so much area to light, you'll also want many circuits of grouped lighting. (ie - sectioned into areas or alternating every other light per switch)

Originally Posted By: XCELERATIONRULES I find it funny to give banks low interest loans when they rape us in return with their fees. I think they should loan them the money at 24% and see how they like it. Based upon their "Credit Score" I may have to agree with you on this one. But as...

You don't want to use it where it may come in contact with water is all. But otherwise, I agree with you and that I like it much better. Especially for the cleanup. But IIRC, you can use partial cans because cleaning the straw tube is easily done in the sink.

If you want to PM me I could do it for you and we could exchange emails. I have Acrobat here at work and at home. As long as its something that you don't mind me seeing?

I love our two Chrysler 300Ms. Looking quickly at cars.com you could obtain a 99'-'00 for the given amount. Mine have been very reliable, many bells & whistles, timing belt & water pump every 100K, if driven reasonably can obtain high 20's to over 30 mpg on the highway, automatic with autostick...

The electrical situation doesn't sound good. Some excellent advice has been given. Consult an electrician for the cost of the upgrade and local codes in regards to the sale of the home. Get them to fix it at least to code (may have legal advantage here) or get some money at closing. As...

How about a Mobil 5000/7500 every 6 months with 12 month FCIs?
