    Craigslist!

    I love Craigslist. In last few years I get easier transactions through Craigslist, while FB Marketplace keeps seems to have an endless supply of low-balling crackheads.

    Unexpected guest

    Showed my wife pictures of different Suburbans, and looks like the blonde lady was driving a late model one, definitely less than 5-7 years old. Doesn't make sense... A Suburban this new costs like a quarter of my house... And my "patina" cars, both Kia and Pontiac, are missing quite a bit of...

    Oil Section in Chinese Sam’s Club

    Username? @TumblrDucks. Theme of the thread? Chinese. Which makes me think of the delicious duck sauce at my favorite Chinese takeout restaurant. So let's throw one more duck into the mix then... https://feinmechanik-rosenheim.de/horsepower-to-duckpower-calculator/?

    Tesla AutoPilot runs over and kills motorcycle rider

    Cain killed Abel with a stone. If the stones were blamed for the deed and banned, then later David wouldn't be able to take down Goliath with a stone. So I agree - it's the operator, not the tool.

    3,000 Mile Oil Change

    66% of vehicles in my stable are new-to-me, so they get the 3000 mile OCI, for about 3-5 OCIs. After that, if nothing abnormal is noted, I move onto 5000 mile OCI. I use mostly HDEO and/or Euro oils. Although I will say that the 3k OCI does give me the warm fuzzies from over maintaining my...

    Pentastar 11hr road trip E85 or 87?

    I would run it on E85 the whole way, regardless of "savings". Cleaning benefits are worth it to me. Then simply change the oil, along with other fluids. But that's just me. The single long run on E85 is not enough to kill the oil, but I simply would change it along with other fluids as part of...

    That's what messes with my head.

    Maybe. 6'1" and 350lb armed fella likely spooked him off then. But that still hits the twist on the white chick from the Suburban/Yukon just a few hours later... It wouldn't be nearly as suspicious if they both weren't giving the dog talk...

    Unexpected guest

    A huge part of me hopes for a weird coincidence. And the other part of me is being a bit more alarmed tonight, so taking precautions. Rather be safe than sorry. Even if it may seem a bit paranoid. Safety of my loved ones is my highest priority, after God. Hopefully my mind calms down a bit and...

    Unexpected guest

    The Plot thickens, gentlemen. I had a rough day and had a 30 minute shut-eye in the bedroom. While I was at it - we had ANOTHER unexpected visitor... This time it was a white blonde female in a Suburban or Yukon. She came to complain about the neighbors dogs I mentioned earlier (the 4 adult...

    The only way he can have my store-brand HDEO 15W-40 is over my dead body 😂

    Unexpected guest

    If hypothetically it was legit: It was pitch dark out at 5am, and my house was the only one out of six that had lights on. He may have been looking for the dog for a while, and once my lights lit - he knocked to inquire if maybe I heard his dog barking in the area at night... Just to try to...

    I really hope it's the latter...but in a good way. As in: so busy worrying looking for the dog that couldn't think clearly.

    Unexpected guest

    That's kinda funny... I'll explain. Most people rely ONLY on their doorbell cameras for home security. And here I am with cameras, various breach and glass break sensors, shotgun and pistols, the whole shabang, EXCEPT for the door bell with a camera. Didn't realize that until now, so that gave...

    As much as I wanna say yes, I do think that may be a bit overkill...no pun intended. But thank you for a reminder to get my Mossberg, it's been a while since I played with it.

    Unexpected guest

    See post #12. I deal with enough racism towards me on daily basis, to even consider making someone else go through that. Edit: The fact that out of thousands of words on this thread you decided to concentrate only on gentlemen's race, made zero helpful input, and ghosted the thread - tells me...

    Unexpected guest

    That was my thinking as it was happening, and afterwards. But being spooked by such an event and this early does play with the brain some... - Charlotte has plenty of crime. Seen it first hand when I had to drive for Uber in between jobs. - He didn't ask if I see the dog, he was only asking if...
