Hercules tires, manufactured in the US by Cooper. Mastercraft tires, also made by Cooper Douglas tires, made for Wall Mart and manufactured by Goodyear. Multi Mile tires which was Sumitomo . Have used all 4 of those over the decades without issue in all weather and road conditions.

Ok, if you say so, I don't know if its a good thing or not, never heard of TUV testing or Ceratech. I have never used extra additives in oil or fuel and will take a hard pass on this one as well. But to each their own .

that is the best deterrent, none of these young punks have ever driven a manual anything before, sadly very ,very few vehicles today come with manual transmissions anymore. expensive sport cars likely the exception. I learned to drive on a 3 on the tree and 4 on the floor vehicles. that was back...

I have used them in our Forester and Sonata, they look and fit exactly the same as Wix or Napa or Fram and usually about $2-$3 less. Like the old Suave soap commercials used to say "if you cant tell the difference, why pay the difference?"

I have had zero issues with just using "Peak All makes" or "Super Tech all makes & models." Both about the same price point. ALL means "ALL" so no issues there.

I take used oil and filters to NAPA, they do have a 4 gallon limit per day for used oil, I have never came close to that much. one time NAPA's oil tank was full, so i went to a Walmart they take oil also, but at Walmart they have you sign in with name and how much oil you are dropping off. Napa...

Growing up in the 60's and 70's i very much recall my dad and grandpa using CO OP oil.. later changed the name to Cenex. It was easy to find and i suppose cost a bit less than the name brands . In rural areas and I grew up in a rural area in ND CO-OPs were in most small towns.

lucas oil gear spinner toy is only good for killing time while waiting in line at the auto parts store. No one should put that sticky swill in an actual engine.

at my age 63, a drive of 350 to 400 miles is about my daily limit for the day. at that point I am looking for a hotel for the night . I dont enjoy hurried trips. I drive and stop when i feel like it, usually every 2 to 3 hours. sciatia does not let me go much farther without getting out for a...

never ever heard the term "rolling coal" before ... but what sort of loser does that? I guess the answer to the question "can people really be that stupid?" is always going to be YES.

I don't honk at bad drivers, they are too arrogant to admit fault anyway and most times will blame you. I was mailing some letters and bills at a PO box afew months back and it is a one way . some moron comes driving down the wrong way as i was just trying to exit and of course in true arrogant...
