Certainly no friends. The manager took about an hour to investigate before she called me back the last time, and I asked if she had found out how it happened. She said she had no idea as they are supposed to check ID’s. She said she checked the cameras, but there was nothing at the time it...

Managed to find one about 45 minutes away and ordered while at work yesterday. Got the confirmation to pickup within a few hours, but didn’t get up there to grab it same day. Today while at work got a notification that someone picked it up. I called before driving up and looks like someone...

The folks above are dead on regarding taking action to prevent SMOD. I replaced the radiator in my first Frontier, it’s a painless job in an afternoon. I believe that year would have spec’d Nissan Matic J ATF. At some point they switched to Matic S and it should be backward compatible. That...

Stash has grown a lot, this year. I’ve been able to offer free oil changes to a lot of family and friends. Also dropped off a significant amount to a family friend that is a mechanic in a small town. He does most of the work for my dad’s farm these days, so this put some goodwill there.

ECS joining for parts is great, but they do exempt the single use items like fluids. So, no lifetime oil changes.

My stash has gotten so big, I’m going to need to recruit more friends and family to get through it all. I’ll leave that to some other lucky folks. Between you and I, I’d say we have the majority of the TQ from Austin.

New to me 2012 Audi Q5 2.0T. 122,908 miles on the clock 8,023 miles on the oil Out: Pennzoil EuroL 5W-30 (per work order from the glovebox & Mann Filter In: Total Quartz 5W-40 Energy (VW502) & Mann Filter I plan to keep the change interval short on this one due to the known oil burning issues...

My wife has driven a 2015 Civic LX for the last 5 years or so. It’s got about 75k miles on it now (her driving has decreased a lot since Covid and WFH). We have had no mechanical issues out of it. I found a few cases of HCF-2 for cheap on CL a couple years back and have started adding drain and...

I have an Autel DS808 from 2018. Happy with the tool, and it’s paid for itself several times over with diagnostics and key programming. My 2 complaints - no Bluetooth capability (so I can’t use a wireless dongle) and the SW Subscription is $350 a year to reactivate/update to the latest vehicles...

I picked up Ryobi about 10 years ago. I was a poor student looking to get some basic tools, and was looking for a deal. Found a clearance deal on 2 packs of 4Ah batteries for $25.03 each at HD. Picked up 10 packs and resold half on eBay to make enough to buy a 6 tool starter kit. I’ve stayed...

I’m in Austin, so it’s a couple hours. Could make a day out of it and visit San Antonio on a weekend though.

My Costco has them on sale at the moment.

Welcome to the Texas heat! Your timing for this purchase was great with our recent heat wave. Happy to see your success on this one. Looking forward to the rest of the story!

Sorry, should have included it all! There was a second post that seems to list the rear separately. https://sanantonio.craigslist.org/pts/d/san-antonio-2020-ford-king-ranch-rear/7630354984.html Course, it can’t hurt to negotiate! Best of luck with your recovery!

Found a person in San Antonio that seems to have the rest of your interior, but he wants a pretty penny for it. Nearly $10K including the rear seats. https://sanantonio.craigslist.org/pts/d/san-antonio-2020-ford-king-ranch-front/7630367217.html Excited to see what comes of this adventure...
