    Short Commute Thoughts

    That's what I face too. Train underpass,turnpike underpass, no sidewalks in some areas and crazy rush hour drivers who think the roads are a Nascar track.

    Short Commute Thoughts

    I’d like to get some opinions about this… I recently accepted a job that is roughly four miles from home, all suburban roads, all under 40 mph. I had been doing a 75 mile round trip commute at highway speed which worked out to me changing my oil every 10 weeks more or less to stick with the...

    Mini Cooper S

    My girlfriend has a 2009 Mini S with an automatic she got last fall. She loves it. It's a great car to bomb around in and hers has been trouble free. However it only has 8000 miles on it, so who knows what the future holds for it. Overall, I like the car too, the fit + finish is better than...

Subaru also lists SL under severe use, I was under the impression that most driving is realistically considered severe...

    GC Question

    I'm coming up on my oil change time again and was planning on hitting my GC stash. I felt GC was a good choice for my car (2010 WRX) being it's Subaru with a turbo. Now I'm wondering since reading over the the threads about Noack numbers, would I be better off going to a 5w-30 synthetic with a...

    Pennzoil Ultra 5W-40 Euro

    Has anyone been able to get the Euro Ultra anywhere besides Debbie and oil-store dot com? I was thinking today that it'd be great to be able to grab some locally. Not sure I want to bother with ordering it regularly. Thanks.

    Best easily available car wash detergent

    Something I found that works well for me since I have little shade available for car washing also. After I'm done washing the car, I hose down the entire car and then give each panel (roof-hood-trunk etc.) 2-3 sprays with a quick detailer while I'm drying that panel. I've been using the...
