Most of the time i am almost carful when i do stuff like that , my 50 + year track record does have some spikes in it though... NICE PROFILE PIC ! btw , its the opposite of your old one , but kind of the same , new but familiar , sweet...
Oh I've singed my hair and eyebrows a few times when I was younger starting a gas grill. Not as bad as Uncle Leo but close. lol

Thanks. I finally got a pic I liked but my OCD was killing me because (like you said) it's reversed from my old one. So today I went back to the same spot and took one in the other direction. I just have to change it now. OCD sucks sometimes! ?‍♂

I used to notice a lot more of a gas smell and a gain in oil over a 5,000 oil change cycle in my 2019 vs the 2022 I have now. I don't know if they made any changes or if different engines perform differently, but I've just observed that my 2022 has less of an issue with this.

My 2021 has gained nearly half inch on dipstick since last oil change,2200 miles on oil.
so is this going to be normal for now on?
what about the Toyota tacoma v6 engines,do they have the same problem with fuel in oil?

That is what my dealer said. It is normal on these engines when they checked mine. Happens while they are cold and warming up. Glad I bought the extended warranty.

That was in 2019 ( my XL) she was leaving and I had parked too close sideways and She hit the rear passenger door…I heard the clunk in the house, she was more upset than me…they replaced the door with a new one and no other damage .
