    In the USA can you be forced to have your vehicle worked on at the dealership?

    Just imagine how many Hyundai or Kia owners paid for engine replacements when they had a non-OEM filter on theirs and didn't know to push back.

    Law Enforcement - What Are Your Pet Peeves?

    And no one has challenged that in court ? That's a clear violation of the 1st amendment.

    In the USA can you be forced to have your vehicle worked on at the dealership?

    They cannot and the person that replied to you is either misinformed or misleading.

    Conducting your business inside a coffee shop

    The owner's is the only opinion that matter, not yours or mine or anyone's here.

    Ozzy Osbourne has Died

    I have Blizzard and Diary on vinyl still (but no way to play them !). I might have Bark at the Moon, but his first two are definitely my favorites, probably because of Randy.

    Gas buddy become a useless app ?

    Yeap, I used to have the app on my phone and would add or update prices a decent amount. There was some big changes a number of years ago (and a user 'revolt') and I tapered off, eventually removing the app (I'm very minimalist when it comes to apps anyway). I think they started flooding the app...

    Walmart order… Valvoline Euro 5w-40 SN vs SP

    This is all that matters. You don't have a Renault or BMW so the others are irrelevant. Does your car even care about API SN, SN+, SP, etc ? I doubt it... It's almost always just (1) spec (VW 502...) at a time.

    Ozzy Osbourne has Died

    Yeap, it's going on close to 2 hours on the station I have on at work and it's the good stuff, from Blizzard of Ozz and Dairy of a Madman too. I have these on vinyl, circa early '80s original release. I could tell that the radio 'show' was pre-recorded (and likely simulcast on other iHeart...

    Need A New Tower

    No and no. You're buying the all-in-one package and those are certainly sacrifices if those matter to you.

    Need A New Tower

    Those are both very nice PCs that will easily handle your usage. They are probably more than you need, as well as $$$, plus neither includes a monitor, which you said you wanted to upgrade as well. Looks like they don't bundle monitors and PCs much anymore. Walmart has some all-in-one HP boxes...

    Need A New Tower

    Even the $199 model is Windows 11 compatible so it's a non-issue

    Front Pad/Rotor choice for 2008 CRV

    That Civic had Wagner pads and Element 3 rotors and they felt "warped" as well.

    Need A New Tower

    External drives aren't a thing anymore. What do you use CD (or DVDs) for on a computer nowadays ? What "documents" ? Do you use MS Office ? You can use online/cloud services for this and need minimal local storage. I wouldn't focus on the size of internal storage (1 TB) and as long as it's...

    Front Pad/Rotor choice for 2008 CRV

    I've got Raybestos Element 3 or whatever they're calling them now on 2 of our 3 cars and am very happy with them. No brake dust to speak of (had Wagner pads on the Civic and they were terrible) and "performance" is just fine.

    Entertaining oil commentary and recommendations from social media

    Yes, much to the dismay of many (who feel it's a stamp of pride that they "don't do social media" or "don't have a Facebook"). It fits perfectly into the definition of social media too, plus we have posts about the food people eat, TV shows, etc.

    Harbor Freight daily tool deals start July 21.

    I will bet money that every store sells out of those floor jacks. That's an incredible deal for a great jack !

    Clorox bleach shelf life... I had no idea.

    They're more like check valves, though not 100%, I'm sure. They release pressure from inside but shouldn't allow (much) outside air in. That said, even threads aren't 100% air or water-tight.

    Trigger warning: BITOG is social media 👊🏻

    Clorox bleach shelf life... I had no idea.

    It also includes sodium carbonate - soda ash - a very old, but very good cleaning agent. Those tablets are probably "time release" and the water dissolves the different components at different times. I'm fairly confident that the sodium percarbonate is the final step. When they say you can...

    Should a transfer case have a magnetic drain plug?

    Sounds like Toyota doesn't use them, so no, it doesn't need it. Nothing stopping you from installing your own though.
