    Finally got my Range for the Camaro (no more AFM!)

    I have a 2021 Camaro 2SS that currently has 3,800 miles. I never really liked the idea of AFM due to the additional engine complexity for miniscule benefit, among the additional component wear/tear… I always wanted to pick up the Range device, but up until just this week, it wasn’t officially...

    Ordering a Camaro in the next few days!

    Long story short... Had a Scion xB since 2007 and was going to drive it into the ground... Was at about 150K, paid off for years, when I was rear ended and totaled it. Bent frame, no chance at saving it. Thankfully, no injuries to all involved (driver who hit me had his 90 year old grandmother...

    Dog had knee surgery yesterday on both legs

    Long story short, I have a 11 month old Husky I always thought he potentially had hip dysplasia due to some habits or characteristics he had. So a little over a month ago, my vet did x-rays when he got neutered last month and hips were perfect, but he was diagnosed with luxating patella's (his...

    BBQ!

    While it certainly can be done year-round, now that the weather is breaking here in Ohio, it's BBQ season! Just picked up a new smoker last week (my 3rd smoker), so I had to break it in of course! It's a Green Mountain Daniel Boone Prime Wifi, my first pellet smoker. I also have a Weber Smokey...

    Kia Niro vs. Camry Hybrid

    I am familiar with the Camry, but what are some thoughts on the Kia hybrids? I plan to test drive it and compare (while I'm borrowing my parents 18' Camry Hybrid), but are there any issues or known problems with the Kia's that I should be aware of? Planning for the higher model, EX or above...

    My first car accident... xB may be totaled?

    At 10 years young and 150K miles, I think my 2008 xB may have just been totaled from an accident that occurred a few hours ago. 2 or 3 drivers in front of me start slowing down as someone was turning left into a business on a single lane roadway. As I slowed down, at about 5-10mph I was slammed...

    Estimate on new porch (composite) - Thoughts?

    Our front porch is 30 years old and it has been on it's way out the past few years. I've tried to keep up with small repairs to secure deck boards and the like, but it's time for a complete rebuild due to wood rot and the overall condition. It is just not safe at this point... And due to my...

    That's some service! (New Central AC...)

    So as some of you may remember, a few weeks ago I posted about about my central AC Rheem unit being 29 years old and recently, broken. Ended up being the contactor went bad after troubleshooting. Well, even though the replacement contactor fixed my issue a few weeks ago, yesterday the AC went...

    Should I look into replacing the AC unit?

    The AC unit on the house is original, 28 years old. Reliable, blows cold and keeps the house comfortable without problem to any temp it's set at. Does not require any maintenance/repair. Had a tech out once years ago and he commented the unit was in great shape and it's blowing very cold and did...

    Well, this was a new one! (Fuel-Flooded engine!)

    Hello everyone! So this morning, the girlfriend and I were leaving for work when her car wouldn't start. The battery was around 4 years old, so we had been planning on a new battery before winter really hit given the sluggish starts lately, but this expedited the process. Took the battery out...

I have been wanting to do it for several months now, but spent a lot of that time studying the process, materials, sanitation, etc...

    Cleveland finally has a Discount Tire!

    Shopping recently for new tires to replace my General Altimax HP's that I have had the last three and a half years as my summer tires. Solid tire, aside from the loud drone noise that developed in a tire last year that drove me nuts. No abnormal wear or anything, must be internal? Anyway...

    Paid the car off, finally!

    I finally paid the car off yesterday! Took far longer than I hoped, but I am glad I finally own it outright. The car is a 2008 Scion xB with 100,000 miles on it now… I originally leased it (3-year) back in 2007 before I started college to get a lower payment as I needed a new car and didn’t...
