I think there are plenty of parts in my Lexus RX 350 that are more expensive to replace than those corresponding parts found in a Corolla base model. I do believe the labor rate is also higher at the Lexus the dealership. I will say my Lexus has been my most expensive car to maintain during the...

My Tundra steering wheel controls have you press up and down to change tracks but push left and right to increase and decrease the volume. In my mind volume goes up and down and tracks for forward and backward. Volume in wife's RX 350 is up and down so Toyota got it right there.

I'm neither for nor against EVs. I know government mandates are coming but I think as we get closer those will get pushed back. I'm not a fan of the existing EVs or EV companies. If at some time it makes sense and I like the vehicle then I'll consider getting an EV. Right now I like my current...

My wife is in bed before me around 8:30ish and sleeps later than me until 6am. I'm in bed anywhere from 9-11PM and usually up during the week at 4:15 or 4:30am and on weekends 5 or 5:30am. The past 10 years I have no problems falling asleep but maintaining sleep after 4am is the issue.

That'd take me 50 years!

I should add in my above post that the plumber doesn't want to replace the Pex piping, just the older fittings that are corroding.

My only experience with pex is with my MIL's house that was renovated about 20 years ago and all of the new plumbing was pex. Their contractor was known for using the best materials and subs and the quality of all of the work still looks top notch 20 years later, except for the pex. Now I have...

Well, I looked and there is not a single location in MA, RI, NH, VT, or ME, so I guess that makes sense why I can't remember seeing one recently.

Red Lobster still exists? I'm sure I've passed one in the recent past but I honestly do not remember the last time it actually registered with me that I passed a Red Lobster - maybe 35 years ago?

Ah...that's the problem here and it totally justifies your weird and uncalled for diatribe...you could've just asked? My bad, I'll do better in the hope that too little engine information won't trigger you next time.

It's one more data point? It's sparked 19 comments of discussion including someone not knowing Amazon basic made a 0W40? I didn't realize that M1 0W40 has moved away from PAO esters with their new formula? There is some fuel dilution going on as well as lube going out of viscosity? Reassurance...

ATT sent me a stating they did not ATT sent me a letter stating my data had been leaked but that they did not think any financially important info had been leaked. The next day I got an alert stating my SS# as well as my email and phone number were found on the dark web associated with the ATT...

Sinn 556 is a great pilot's watch.

Thank you for the link, KGMtech!

Oh wait...you're on Bob's...lol. I think it's safe to say we all suffer from a similar issue if we're here... ;)

I can see the OCD does not run deep within you my son. Go, live life, happy and free from the confines of obsessive thoughts. It doesn't. It's just as measure of what a manufacturer can achieve and it means having to readjust the time less.

Wha? My math is correct, it was my memory of what year it was made that failed me.

I’m a dentist who works under magnification all day long - fine motor skills are not a problem ;) The timegrapher was $130 so I figured why not? It’s reassuring to see my new Tudor seems to be within the claimed METAS cert limits and that the two Rolex aren’t far off being 37 and 33 years old...

I like Orient a lot. Nice looking watches!

I don't know anything! ;) However, I'm a bright guy and I tend to obsessively work at new challenges until I do understand them. Thank you for the primer! Are there any books that cover timegrapher theory? Thanks again!
