Have a plan to remove insects and to fully wash and detail your exterior upon arrival. My wife and I went from central Ohio to visit Mt. Zion National Park in Utah last week. When we got into Denver the smog was thick. The gas stations in Colorado and Utah seem much better at keeping the...

A mental health specialist might diagnose you with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

Spring for the XLE trim or higher if you can. The XLE trim has more sound proofing than the base LE. If you drive on the interstate you'll appreciate it.

I hope shops don't take advantage of customers substituting refrigerant and billing for R-1234YF.

Hopefully driving to the UPS Store.

My realtor wants my shared equity property on the market this week for back to school reasons and brought up doing a brokerage exclusive saying he has people lined up and will work harder getting me as much or more than a traditional listing, saying it's common in Upper Arlington, OH. I'm...

42K. I could have waited.

When I or others post I'm not always directing at the thread starter because what someone says may help other members out.

I Never buy spark plugs online---Not worth it. Still gotta be careful buying at an auto parts store because someone could get burned buying fakes online, buy real ones at an auto parts store and return the fakes for a refund. I just installed spark plugs on my GLI before driving to UT and back...

Some assume an auto battery with more CCA's is better, but that's usually not the case. The lower CCA battery the auto makers use often live longer than whatever replaces it. The plates on OE batteries are often thicker and fewer while aftermarket high CCA seeking dumb Joe gets more plates that...

I spy @AutoMechanic. I don't know why I bought it knowing it feels gross to use, but a 5 pack at Costco is $14.99 at the moment. Also a decent room that separates the beds so you kinda have your own space and a ceiling fan over one bed. I have been in other hotels that have a divider curtain...

The big paint companies make different paints for the pros. SW has Promar, PPG has SpeedHide and Benjamin Moore has Ultra Spec 500. I think Behr is formulated to score well on paper for Consumers Reports. I assume Behr is like the guy who aced a FCC Ham radio test but can't use a ham radio in...

Just got home from a grueling drive from Utah. We drove only stopping for pit stops, I drove during the day and my wife at night. 1864 miles in 25 hours 12 minutes. Of course 80 MPH speed limits in Utah and 75 MPH in Colorado helped. Wife got called Friday evening she's needed back at work to...

According to my research, dealers average 45-55% gross margin in the service department. In my opinion, the large corporate auto dealer groups did this. Dealer labor rates were lower and more approachable when most of the dealers weren't owned by mega outfits.

The green deck is metal easily identified by the gloss paint.

If there is no wind ride the E-bike.

Yes

The amount of overheated, brake fade or broken down semi trucks on the side of the road on I-70 in the mountain region of Colorado was surprising. That and some dumb truck drivers in Utah creeping up the mountain at half the speed limit in the left lane to go 1/4 of 1 MPH faster than the slow...

Just avoid Bad Ave and avoid pan handlers no matter what as you should assume they all want your money to pay for their next gram of crack, fety and or meth.

Speaking of World Cup, the hotel we stayed at last night outside of Kansas City had one room left. When we left this morning there were busses in the parking lot. We went down for breakfast and multiple people wanted to use the waffle griddle. I had oatmeal and a banana.
