    This is exactly what (25mpg) I get if I drive 75mph, but I gotten 28.4mpg in areas where speed limit is 55, but I do 60.
  2. Rodent nest plus dog food HVAC help

    The bigger model is still $49.98, good for 8K sq ft! I don't understand it, but that is what says...
  3. Darwin Award Thread

    550 IS serious. Loveland, Wolfcreek, etc., are fun and challenging, best pay attention. 550 is in another class. A paved cliff. Beautiful too.
  4. Darwin Award Thread

    I bet the driver was texting all the way down! I can see it happening in the winter when things ice up and foolish drivers take a chance, but on a dry road... stupidity reigns supreme! It'll buff out!

    The same thing with my Ruger Security Six with .357 magnum loads and that small wooden grip! I've still got those wood grips, but they are in a box! .44 mags are that much worse!
  7. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    I don't know how long it's been since you attempted the move to Linux, but Linux Mint (Cinnamon) has come a long way! It is a very simple install, and all apps in the Software Manager Catalog work well. I steer clear of Wine for several reasons... 1) It is not sand boxed. I don't want...

    I'm running Linux Mint with Gnome Boxes (VM) with Windows 10 on my Thinkpad, and it runs Forscan perfectly. My last Windows laptop is no longer needed.
  9. MBS Extended Automatic Transmission Dipsticks now available

    Let your truck sit over night and run the cold check to validate. Start truck run through the gears up and down at 5 second intervals. Immediately jump out and check you level. It should be on the very tip of the dipstick. Up to 1/8" will get you in the diamond between 4 and 5 at 215F.
  10. OIL AND WATER DON’T MIX?

    Each time this happens it further weakens the transmission. I hate what Ford has done here. It seems almost intentional. No dipstick, and the alternative is so difficult to accurately check that their own service departments get it wrong. I'll not go into the crazy shift algos, the cheap...

  12. 19’ overheating sometimes

    Obvious question, but have you ever changed your coolant? If so, did you insure all the air pockets were evacuated? The days of draining and filling are no longer reliable, air pockets trapped in the top of the engine cooling system cause hot spots and play havoc with your cooling system...
  13. OIL AND WATER DON’T MIX?

    It will happen if it is overfilled at any temp. It all depends on just how overfilled it is.
  14. OIL AND WATER DON’T MIX?

    Another possibility, The heat exchanger. It keeps transmission temps at 195F using engine coolant. When the coolant reaches 195, a valve opens allowing coolant to flow into the transmission heat exxhanger. If the heat exchanger develops a leak the coolant goes into the transmission, and vice...

    And they vote! And some large portion of them will be making decisions about how our society functions. How they see the world and understand our society will be the undoing of all of us. I watch them take out their phone to do simple addition! They can't read a clock... or comprehend a...
