    What makes you like where you live?

    Yeah it kills me to see these warehouses going up and then sit vacant with a “now available” sign up for years. Makes me think this warehouse trend is a bubble waiting to burst.

    What makes you like where you live?

    We vacationed on Emerald Isle, NC a few years ago and loved the area. I could see my self living there when I retire…in other words long long time from now 😂

    What makes you like where you live?

    I live in a small town in rural Southern New Jersey. We purchased our house in 2013 in a neighborhood with a 1/3 of an acre. I was born and raised in this county. I love the small town feel, sense of community, and proximity to the Jersey Shore (50 miles about 1 hour drive). I also love being...

    Anyone have experience with a frozen hub/spindle?

    Absolutely I just did the rear wheel bearings on my 2007 crv. The passenger side unbolted and fell out. The driver’s side was stubborn so I used a 3 jawed puller and some PB blaster and some torque and taps from a hammer and it popped. Eric O from the South Main Auto channel performs all sorts...

    Anyone have experience with a frozen hub/spindle?

    Any access to an air hammer? You could keep the puller tight and tap the hub all around to see if that gets it to pop

    Oilpan Drainplug Removal Tool

    @Astro14, What brand of ramps are you using here? Do you recommend them? Right now I’m using two 2x10s screwed together for a 3” lift which is fine but I could use a bit more lift, and the PT lumber isn’t exactly light. I run the Fumoto on my CRV and my wife’s Ascent and even in the garage a...

    BITOGERS, which hot dog are you eating?

    I also like the deep fried variety which are common in Northern Nj. My wife put on this place Hot Dog Johnny’s in Buttzville, NJ when we first started dating, it’s a few minutes from where she grew up. Really good fries too. Ketchup, Mustard, and a Pickle on mine

    Mavis tries to strike again

    Yep don’t go back to the poisoned well, no matter how good the water tastes. Or in this case the most powerful word in the world, “No” followed by a thank you works well. I use it often with people that love to tell stories and sell things, students and schemers. I have patience so I usually...

    Found a coolant leak while checking the oil.

    Yep I caught several issues in the past by just detailing my cars or doing a basic oil change. My crv had a coolant leak that I noticed the smell of before spotting the blue coolant. I had a good clue that it was a heater pipe that runs under the intake. I was just in there a few months before...

    Whats in it for scrappers?

    Don’t tell my 9 year old son that. I made the mistake of mentioning the circuit boards have valuable metals in them. He is now on a quest to save up enough e scrap to buy himself a 3D printer. So we took apart our old desktop, my mom found an old fax machine and other small electronics for him...

    Chain restaurant price increase chart from Finance Buzz

    I agree that prices have crept up. We don’t eat at chains either except when we are traveling with the kiddos, the quality is often inferior and the service leaves a lot to be desired. We have several good options around us for all types of food within 20-30 min drive. We eat at Cracker Barrel...

    Post your latest oil change

    Yeah I should clarify, I bought the oil last month and I submit the rebate form in the parking lot before I lose the receipt and got the rebate last week. So I’d say about 3 -4 week turn around. Rebate was in the form of visa giftcard. Sorry for the confusion, I bought 2 jugs one for the crv one...

    Post your latest oil change

    Just changed the oil on the wife’s 2021 Subaru Ascent. 5k intervals make it easy to remember. Pennzoil rebate already in my email. Old fill was Mobil 1 afe 0w30 and Subaru filter. Wanted 0w30 but hard to find it in the local Wallyworld in Pennzoil, and I try to escape the store before night of...

    Drink Coffee Black, Cream, Sweetener?

    If it’s good coffee I can do black. Some of the smoothest I’ve had was Jamaican Blue Mountain in Jamaica it was so smooth and not bitter. The Costco swill I buy for everyday stuff is just a bit of half and half and I’m good. I actually don’t mind the Costco ground coffee it’s pretty smooth not...

    First OPE start of the season

    I fired up my Honda mower, on Saturday, for the first time since November. It started on the first weak pull due to a balky shoulder. I run stabil year round and actually remembered to close the petcock and run it out of fuel last fall. I sharpened the blade and go every other season with oil...

    T-33 trainer

    Absolutely worth it, and great chance you’ll be delayed at PHL lol. We try to visit different museums, parks etc a few times a year and the Franklin Institute was a favorite.

    T-33 trainer

    Yes the heart is still beating! The planetarium was also excellent. I love the building. Also cool was the giant Baldwin 60000 locomotive. 350 tons of train parked there since 1933 around the time the museum opened.
