    Clamping Pipe to Concrete

    A couple of my neighbors have done this. Apparently it's called "plumbers tape" but it is a roll of metal with holes that straps over the pvc pipe. Then just use screws or anchors to hold down.

    My parents have a Dodge Grand caravan from the Daimler Chrysler era. Last year my dad somehow hit some combination of buttons on the fob and all of the windows rolled down. He still doesn't know how he did it.

    Which off these Lexus

    I've driven both as i worked for a Lexus dealership. The RX350 is more plush and quieter than the NX. The NX rides firmer but the engine is very well built I wouldn't worry about if it has a turbo. I think 2016 was the first year of manufacturing for the nx However.

    Tesla Turn signal stalks deleted

    Blame Elon. Most really stupid ideas at Tesla were because of him. Removing the radar on autopilot, the yoke, the Cybertruck, and this. He has to make it look like he's doing something.

    Apparently the Cybertruck is breaking in new innovative ways. Now the ceiling mounted "pod" where the back up parking buttons are in case the screen fails are cracking and falling off. Tesla made the center stack part of the bracket for the sun visor. Cybertruck breaking in innovative new ways...

    Tesla Cybertruck Hit With Stop-Sale Because of Unintended Acceleratiom Report

    I think early on it would take a hit, but put someone competent as his replacement would in the long run show an improvement.
