    "Ethanol Free" Fuel, May Not Be

    Oh for sure, even if I didn't have easy access to E0 87 and 91 I wouldn't waste my time with it. If someone is concerned and motivated enough in a state where there is no other option for pure gas, than it is what it is I guess. Even then it might be easier to find race fuel at a station located...

    Please do explain.

    "Ethanol Free" Fuel, May Not Be

    If there's a lobby it's still too big of an airport 😉 You should be able to find an unsecured small strip somewhere with self serve 100LL I would guess, although not sure how far you would have to travel to find one.l where you live.

    Consensus on battery powered OPE

    I have gas everything minus my pole saw. I had an electric trimmer and ended up buying a gas...for my trimming needs I didn't want to have to drain 2 batteries every use, and I use an edger attachment on the trimmer too which I use every bit of that gas power for and for an extended period. I...

    Pressure washer engine preference?

    Hubcap still there? Your mailbox is blocking my view in pic #2. You can't leave us hanging like that.

    09 Lexus RX350 with 26k miles

    Recommended, not required. I think you lose about 5hp IIRC running 87.

    Airline card credit card annual fees, wow $495?

    You can't balk at an annual fee until you look at the benefit value. I have a travel card (Venture X) with a $395 annual fee, I fly only about 2x per year, and it more than pays for itself.

    Pressure washer engine preference?

    Now it's time for quick connect fittings, more flexible hose and an oil drain tube.

    Planning a Vacation...

    Narrowing it down to the primary purpose of mountains/ocean/natural beauty vs event/destination/entertainment would help. Of course you can have a little of it all but Disney is not beautiful like a hike in the mountains. Sounds like the wife likes a destination that's an experience vs chasing...

    Pressure washer engine preference?

    I've had a Simpson with the Honda GC190 for 6 years. No issues, runs like a champ. My electric gets most duties but I started with only the Simpson so it did cars and everything for at least 4 years. They are good units. Put an oil drain hose on the engine if you buy the one you are looking...

    Honda VCM Disabling Questions

    The 2024 Odyssey still has the SOHC J35...for those that think it doesn't or aren't sure. So, the current VCM disable devices will work just fine. I have the VCM Tuner II, used for coming on 4 years now and no issues. No Acura has the eco mode, so I know it's working because the coolant temp...

    "Ethanol Free" Fuel, May Not Be

    I also use stabilizer in my E0 fuel purchases for the OPE. Both vehicles take premium so I end up just pumping 91 into my OPE tanks at the same time that I am gassing up the cars, but obviously I'd other wise have no issues running the 87 E0 variety.

    "Ethanol Free" Fuel, May Not Be

    Of the 3 stations that I use near me that sell E0, only one of them has a dedicated hose: Station 1: 87E0 and 87E10 on one hose, 91E0 on a separate hose Station 2: 87E10, 91E0 on the same hose Station 3: 87E0, 87E10, and 91E0 all on the same hose The variety is interesting. I've also learned...

    "Ethanol Free" Fuel, May Not Be

    You should go to a small airport that has a self serve pump.

    If I could on my Sportster

    Eh, they are cool bikes but after owning a silky smooth Honda twin the single crank pin induced vibration on the Sportster is something I can't get over. I haven't been on a newer one though which I hear have better engine mounts.

    Wet clutch observation

    Uh yeah, clutches aren't supposed to stick so if it's now sticking less than I'd say that's definitely a good thing.

    Dollar Tree Yesterday

    Right, but my point is had she been able to put those mandatorily withheld 1980's dollars into an index fund she would be far better off in the 2020s.

    Dollar Tree Yesterday

    Very little earnings means very little contributed to SS, so in the end all is well. She won't have the sickening fact of a horrendous ROI like the rest of us who have been paying in.

    How and when do you pay your property taxes?

    Whether or not you have a mortgage has nothing to do with how you pay property taxes other than adding an option to escrow. I pay in full every year via the county website even with a mortgage.
