    4K tv to 1440p monitor?

    So I've been using a 43" Vizio V435-H1 4k tv as a monitor for the past two years. Have the computer to push 4k past 80 fps but I'm curious about 1440p. Playing FPS games I get dominated, assuming the TV being only 60hz and who knows response time. I haven't played many FPS games since I've...

    Clutch recommendations

    For a 1996 Mustang GT. My throw out bearing is whining so I figured I might as well replace the clutch while the tranny is out. It’s mostly stock summer daily with 94k on her. I was looking at a LUK kit with the pilot and throw bearing included. Are they any good? Recommendations?

    Dog food for new puppy.

    Well I got a new puppy, 4 month old German Shepard. Never had a big dog before, I grew up with Cocker Spaniels and I’m assuming their dietary needs are different. I know about the hip dysplasia and reduced calcium needed. I’m not sure which brand would be best. Got doing research and it’s quite...

    Found a unicorn!

    Not really 😂. Hard to find Valvoline 0W40. Got 3 jugs off Walmart.com for $80. MSDS says 25-35% group 3, good guess the rest is PAO. I know MSDS isn’t a tell all of composition but I’m a big Valvoline fan and this is enough for 2 changes in the BMW.

    2006 VW Jetta 2.5 spark plugs

    New to me 135k. May be factory plugs, I'm more sure. They looks pretty good! No signs of anything wrong or burning oil. Replaced the stock VW coils with Audi red tops.

    Speaker upgrade.

    Looking for a speaker upgrade for my 13 Elantra. I have a Android head unit with 2 12 inch MTX subs but the stock system is lacking to say the least. The front has 6.5 components and the rear doors are coaxial. I was looking at some JBL GTO series 6.5 components for the front and coaxial 6.5s...

    Need some advice.

    My younger brother is on our cell plan with my wife and I. His ex girlfriend had her phone stolen so we felt bad for her and got her an spankin' new iPhone 7 on our plan. She had been paying us $50 a month for almost a year. They broke up and I asked for the phone back. She kept it and put it on...

    Anyone Nexus/Pixel owners on Android P?

    Installed it last night and what a difference from Oreo. I like the new notifications and interface much better. Performance is still blistering fast. A few hiccups here and there as this is a beta release. Now with Oreo it KILLED my battery life with my Pixel XL. Id get max 12 hours before it...

    Honda F23A1 under valve cover

    Picked up a 98 Accord for a winter driver. Sitting in this guy's yard for a year. 197k miles on it, 4 cylinder with a 5 speed. It needed a brake line, CV shaft, ball joints and tie rods. Virtually rust free. Car was originally sold in Texas. Changed the oil when I got it and it burned a quart in...

    Huskee 4200 chewing through blades.

    Bought her new in 2013 42 inch deck. Every season it needs new blades. Last year it went through 2 sets. It is a floating deck with no wheels but it's never lower than 3 and doesn't scrape on the ground. Very few rocks but there are a bunch of pine cones, I try to take them up. Any idea what...

    Trying to boot laptop from spare drive

    I found an old laptop from around 2013 I had that has a broke screen. My computer case has a HHD dock on the top where I can insert the HHD and boot or access it without opening my case. So I put the old HHD in the dock and rebooted. I booted from it but when the loading screen went away I was...

    Savage Axis II XP or Model 11 Trophy XP?

    I'm new to Savage rifles. I have quite a few Rugers but not a Savage. I'm trying to decide which one of those two rifles to get. It will be used for mostly punching paper and hunting a few weeks a year. Mostly deer and the neighbors [censored] cat, kidding about the cat. The Axis is obviously...

    Google Pixel?

    The specs on these phones are top notch but I'm not quite sold on the design. Google claims it has the best camera but it's the same exact module on my 5X. I'm very disappointed that they're so expensive I've had a Nexus since the Galaxy Nexus and this is Samsung pricing. Whats everyone's...

    Higher Mileage Subarus?

    I'm looking for a nice used Subaru for the wife for winter. The Avenger is horrible in the snow and I don't really want her and our son in that thing in bad weather. Anything I should look for while checking one out? I'm looking at the Legacy models. When is the timing belt due for service? Any...

    Speedometer problems

    Well I got my first speeding ticket yesterday in over a decade. 65 in a 55, which I thought impossible since my cruise was set at 60. Low and behold my speedo is reading 5 mph SLOWER than my acutal speed, no matter what speed. My wife followed me tonight in the Avenger. 60 was really 65, 30 was...

    Need opinions!

    Alright guys, I already have a set of Dynomax Super Turbos on the 300. But, they're not enough now. I was thinking a nice set of Powersticks would be appropriate, the wife on the other hand thinks they might be too much. It might make her take the Avenger on trips instead. Hee Hee. The 300...
