    HarryJ, I love your post about your high mileage civic. This was a little more than 4 months. Why not run it a full 10k and see the results?

    2021 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid - 4,600 miles HPL No VII 5w20

    It’ll still run to 100-200k…..even with this fuel dilution before giving out. And manufacturers know this. Unfortunately we expect more.

    It’s hard for me to point the finger at someone (less fortunate than me) and say it’s your fault you’re in this spot. Empathy is the most important human emotion.

    Guy living in his car

    I talk to my boys about how lucky we are when driving by unhoused people. I can’t imagine a more difficult way to live, especially those with children. I don’t judge. It’s an awful way to exist. I think if I won the lottery id retire and make it my daily mission to drive around and hand out...
