Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times
:ohdang: will keep an eye on that for sure! Thanks for the heads up. Mine seems to be dropping steadily as I drive, but some quick napkin math shows ~36mpg, which seems high and is 8 higher than than the 28mpg the onboard calculator is showing. First gen supercharged ones did a bit worse than secon...

Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times
Yeah the owner’s manual says 13.2 and my first full fill up I put 12.419g in it, so I think that’s accurate. Driven 120something miles this week and still showing 3/4 of a tank which is :nice: I’ll probably fill up again next weekend, even though I should drive way less next week with Michelle bein...

13.2 in this bad boy. But that at least makes sense with the size/weight of the thing. Really ?

OT 21: DFD Giveth and DFD Taketh Away
Mid-year performance review went great. Exceeds expectations across the board with notable growth in taking on more of a headship role with my contract actions instead of setting to my contract officers. Cash pool for bonuses is low this year with budget constraints, but I got the $500 max, plus a ...

OT 21: DFD Giveth and DFD Taketh Away
Saw a bunch of motorcycles out today, and now I wanna get a bike again. I get this itch every spring. I’ve been looking at FB marketplace motorcycle listings for the last 20 minutes. I’ll probably change my mind once I see another Charlotte driver cut off a motorcyclist and almost kill them. But I ...

Finally hit Napa. Intake and cabin air filters replaced, and picked up an oil filter.. probably change oil next weekend. Windshield washers weren’t spraying, so I bought fluid and topped the two reservoirs off. Still not spraying, and it turns out they weren’t empty. I can here the motor of the pum...

TK, while you’re staying in El Segundo, if you guys want to go out for some nightlife, just down the coast you’ll hit the Hermosa Beach pier. Lots of bars, jam packed every night, generally good vibes. Haven’t been there in a while, but The Underground is right off the pier and has pool, shuffleboa...

Looks great. What floor jack did you go with? I need to grab one and some stands so I can start turning wrenches again. The jack and stands I had disappeared between when our movers loaded the truck from San Diego and when they showed up here to unload it :mad: Was considering grabbing some ramps f...

Summer mode engaged! These wheels are going to be a MAJOR pain to clean that’s for sure. New floor jack is 5/7. And it’s nice having those little adapter puck things. Recoded my headlights with bimmercode. Gonna mess around with ambient lighting too since the standard options kinda suck. In the pic...

Yep! There’s a little detail garage shop not too far from me, so this weekend I’m going to grab a few things. Any products you like?
