    What happened to quality control?

    Yep. If made in China or Vietnam it would look better.

    RAV4 dethrones F150 as best selling car (vehicle) in the U.S.

    I love our Rav4. It’s been used and abused hauling lumber, dishwashers, fertilizer, and driving forest service roads. Bulletproof vehicle. Is it a pick-up? No. But ownership costs are 1/2-1/3 of a reliable pickup.

    Walmart Battery Core Charge

    Yeah I’m guessing this is a new or incompetent employee who confused warranty procedures with core return.

    LSJr tests oil filter BP function ... "OIL FILTERS: What most people DON'T know"

    Interesting video but yes I agree with most id like to see super cold oil 0 F or colder. And maybe run a filter for 5,000-10,000 miles or something and see what conditions make it go into bypass.

    Salting ruins gravel roads?

    I believe West Virginia spreads loads of fresh gravel over the ice/packed snow rather than use salt on gravel roads.

    Carquest Premium 84502 C&P

    I like to support American manufacturing but geez… these higher end Asian made filters just seem to be better quality than almost all domestic filters. Don’t shoot the messenger.😬 That thing is beautiful.

    Should I replace the battery?

    I’d replace but make sure the charging system in the car is working properly.

    Need a new heating oil tank- single vs double wall?

    Holy cow 4,000? That’s what I spent on 2 24,000 BTU hyper heat mini splits. HVAC companies are so expensive. I wish you the best, stuff like that hurts.

    I can confirm they appear to still be wire backed synthetic media filters. At my store at least.

    PUP 5W30 quieted Toyota 2.5L startup rattle completely

    Fram Ultra or Fram Endurance?

    I went to Walmart today planning on buying an endurance 9972, but was highly unimpressed by the uneven pleat spacing and messy glue on them. The ultras in this size were nearly perfect. I went with the Ultra, which in the 9972 size is still the OG pink wire backed synthetic media.

    Drain and refill fluid substitute for Toyota WS?

    I have had good luck with Idemitsu TLS-LV in my wife's RAV4. Seems to behave the same as Toyota WS. But WS is cheaper unless you find a sale on Idemitsu or buy from Rockauto. Mobil 3324 is on Amazon for $55/6 quarts.

    New Rural King Battery

    Yeah, they’re regional for sure. Not sure if you’ve ever been in one but RK is like TSC, but probably 10x larger, 10-30% lower prices, and has guns. If given the choice I would choose it over TSC every time. TSC does well with the suburban crowd I think.
