    Can anyone name this car

    Since you asked for someone to name it, I was going to name it "Olivia".

    Yesterday at the DMV

    I was pleased when I received the letter in the mail, telling me that i could renew my driver's license online, and they'd mail the new license to me. If I have to go in person, I've found over and over again, to take the short 20 minute drive to the DMV office in the next county over. It is...

    This is a rental car rant

    My favorite was reserving a Standard SUV. When I arrived to pick it up, I was handed the keys to a Dodge Journey. When I protested, I was told that it was a brand new Journey with a V6, heated leather seats, and only 80 miles on the odometer, and I would be the first one to rent it. I...

    eBay returns?

    No, they don't play around. I had a "not as described" return with a "California" (read: China) seller. It was a carburetor that the listing said would fit my small engine, and when it arrived, it clearly didn't. When I requested the return, I included pictures to support my claim...

    Please ID the age of this AC Delco filter?

    One can get old look oil filters that are brand new (they're insanely expensive), but I wouldn't assume that is the case here. In this case, I'd assume that is a really old oil filter that needs to come off of the engine ASAP...

    2019 F150 - Can't remember miles of last change - Check via OLM?

    Well, the truck is roughly 6 years old, and has 18000 miles on it. If you know you changed it last October... once a year should be sufficient.

    Lighted exterior concrete steps in new construction- have to give a thumbs down

    Where's the driveway??? LOL. It is missing as well. Apparently the builder doesn't know any concrete guys (or he's already dicked them all over at least once and none of them will work for him anymore). Ugh. Those dark shiny, wavy floors are awful. And they're nearly everywhere...

    Lighted exterior concrete steps in new construction- have to give a thumbs down

    Wait until 3 or 4 randomly go out... and that's going to look like rubbish. Where's the sidewalk leading up to the steps?

    Ford recalls over 850,000 cars in the US due to potential fuel pump failure

    Cars and trucks are nothing but an assemblage of parts made by the lowest bidder. During the COVID years, it had to have been even worse than usual.

    Just read this morning, that State Farm is increasing home insurance premiums in Illinois by 27% next month.

    Walmart Great Value Ice Cream=Blue Bunny?

    Someone has to make it... I once looked at a gallon jug of Great Value purified drinking water to see where it was from, and it was listed as being bottled from the municipal water supply of the city that I live in... :ROFLMAO:

    Cost of "standard" naturally fermented loaf of bread at your local artisan bakery?

    It might not be exactly the answer that you're looking for, but I can get a standard loaf of Amish made white bread or whole wheat bread for $3.60. Oatmeal bread is $4.60. This is bread that was made in a home kitchen of an Amish family.

    5k fram filter looks like a hot mess

    Probably better to be a bit too long, rather than be a bit too short (and letting oil by the filter).

    Amazon HM 5W-30 API SN +

    Not sure who is buying this oil at the regular price of $26.54, when SuperTech is $18.64 and WM will deliver an order of 2 jugs for free.... Not me.

    Fram Tough Guard Opinions ?

    Tough Guard... or Wal-Mart SuperTech as an even better buy. Both at 99% filtration.

    O’Hare close to dethroning Atlanta as America’s busiest airport

    I try to avoid the huge airports whenever possible. The worst of the smaller ones that I've been though is CVG (Cincinnati/Northern KY).
