    So sad, when did being respectful become lost

    It's not victim blaming. It's learning from others. I was just at a gas station/convenience store. Encountered a mentally unsound individual there. I assessed the risk/reward. I wanted a sandwich but the risk was not worth it. As I get older, I get more risk averse for any sort of...

    2024 Lexus RX350h hybrid battery

    I'm not understanding your math. Are you saying that the batter only lasts 10 years? I assume that 10 years is the warranty period, not the expected lifespan.

    Sad day ... physical problems regarding doing my own maintenance

    I changed the oil in my RAV4 on Friday and was happy that I didn't get any little aches. Now, if I have to do something physical, I assess the aches and pains that might result to the cost of hiring someone. I'm paying a pro to mulch and do some landscaping. I could do it myself by I'll...

    Asian Glazed Salmon

    They say there are propellants in Pam and using "pure" oil is healthier. Also, I have a cool silicone oil brushing brush. Lol

    At what point do you drop full coverage?

    About when the insurance premium is over 10% of the vehicle's value.

    New way to interview? Have the final four applicants interview in front of each other, attend a social together, etc

    I can't imagine a social setting interview for an interview unless the job requires social setting skills. Like some type of James Bond undercover work

    New way to interview? Have the final four applicants interview in front of each other, attend a social together, etc

    There is an HR principle about reprimand in private, praise in public. We take time to give praise to other at the start of our department meetings. We had a toxic bully boss that another guy and I reported to. The other guy was fairly large. Quite a bit larger than the bully boss. The...

    Vehicle you're looking forward to in 2025 (and beyond)

    Indeed! Just being honest.

    Vehicle you're looking forward to in 2025 (and beyond)

    I had to replace a squeaky blower fan and the water pump twice in my Camry. It also threw a misfire code and ran rough for a couple days and then went away on its own.

    Auto-Braking required in 2029

    You'd also hate to have that vehicle behind you not paying attention and slam into the back you after you've stopped for traffic or an emergency on the road. So, then we risk analyze. What is more likely: The driver isn't paying attention and crashes into you or the safety feature...

    Suggestions to heat my detached garage during winter storms

    They sell little heated outdoor cat houses. Seem easier than a garage heater.

    The new 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe is the bomb

    I like it. The interior is awesome and its length is perfect to fit in my garage. Except for the Hyundai thing. LOL. Maybe Toyota will modernize the Highlander or maybe a Jeep GC will fit the bill. Not that I need a new vehicle. My Camry only has 148,000 miles on it.

    tire inflators at all the gas stations are closed down?

    Are they free? Maybe they're changing over to pay to pump. The Wawa chain of gas and convenience stores has greatly expanded in NJ and they have free air. And sometimes the line for air is 5 cars deep. I bought a little air pump that plugs into the cigarette lighter and works great.

    2014 Nissan Murano - stabilizer-bar end links

    I did this on my old RAV4 and got it done but struggled with the nuts. Went and bought a cheap grinder after that for the next time. There hasn't been a next time and I've never used the grinder. LOL.
