"Lola" by the Kinks
any song celebrating a girl's 16th birthday transforming her into a fair game woman, such as
"You're sixteen, you're beautiful and you're mine" by Johnny Burnette

Vermont Route 100, south to Wilmington VT, Route 9 West to Bennington Route 7A North to Manchester, Route 11 East to Londonderry, 100 North back home to Weston.
I only purchase Phillips LED bulbs for the house. The other brands fail prematurely, and create RF noise. As an amateur radio operator, RF noise is simply unacceptable.
I had a 1985 Audi 5000 turbo. At around 75,000 miles, I was driving down the road, and the transmission went "Boom" but kept going. About 1000 miles later, the automatic transmission would not shift out of first gear from a toll booth. Had to drive 25 miles in first to the next exit.

My C8 2022 Corvette has the interior 12v power socket under the glove box on the passenger side. You cannot see or reach it from the drivers seat.
I think they designed the interior of the car, and at the last minute discovered they forgot a power socket. So they stuck it where they could...
My present cats were adopted from a shelter as a "bonded pair", meaning they grew up and lived together in a household and both had to be given up at the same time. It is clear that they are the best of companions, and their adjustment to their new home (my home) was near instantaneous and they...
True, but a 20 year old car, even one with a brand new replacement battery, is still a 20 year old car. The car's suspension, interior, steering, etc also wears with age and mileage. A new battery in an old car would still be an old car.
The problem with buying an old electric car is, its battery is old in age and represents older technology. When it wears out and should be replaced, the cost of replacement may exceed the value of the old car.
My Lexus calls for 0w-20. Many of the trips are short ones, 3 miles to the post office, 3 miles back. Its all downhill leaving my house for those three miles, dropping 1000 vertical feet. The engine is barely used to propel the car. In fact, its mostly used for engine braking, so I don't...
We bought a 2019 RX350 with a naturally aspirated V6 that runs on 87 octane fuel. It gets 25-27 mpg.
The current RX350 has a turbo 4 Its long term engine reliability is yet to be proven. But the 3.5 V6 has been around for years and should be good for 300,000 miles with good care.
The worst, least suitable OEM tires were on my 1964 Corvette. It was capable of 130 mph plus, but came from the factory with two ply bias ply Firestone DeLuxe Champion whitewall tires. Same as they put on a Chevy Bel Air.
I replaced them with Pirelli radials.
