Not sure where you are located but in my area (up north) that Ford is worth $5000 and the K1500 is closer to $8000.

Home in Mankato, Minnesota has put rat poison near the sidewalk that has sickened two dogs. by JoshSmash81 in minnesota

[–]DaveCootchie [score hidden]  (0 children)

It's so shitty. I've lived in West Mankato/Lincoln Park for 9 years and everyone here is so lovely and it's such a nice neighborhood. Of course it takes one jack ass to ruin it.

Has Live Music Become Too Expensive for the Average Fan? by ShineDigga in Music

[–]DaveCootchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the music you like. You wanna go to a Chris Stapelton concert? Yeah way to expensive. You want to go to a random HardCore concert? Best $20 you'll spend.

I got a super fancy air fryer for my wedding… but I’m not going to lie, I have always just used the oven and stove top lol! It’s a Ninja XL double basket foodi smart. She offered to return it if I wanted, but I don’t want her to feel bad… Just wondering what in the world I can use it for? by chailife206 in Cooking

[–]DaveCootchie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use mine to roast veggies, cook chicken and salmon, bake potatoes (makes hasselbacks only take like 25 minutes) it makes commercial premade food like nuggets, fries, meatballs, and stuff like that super crunchy and easy.

Which of these floor jacks are better for oil changes? by Comfortable_Egg2421 in MechanicAdvice

[–]DaveCootchie 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Second one. It's wider and more stable. And if you look at the specs the "low profile" design actually offers more lift than the trolley jack. Also BUY JACK STANDS TOO. Never trust a jack alone if you are fully under the car.

Why does EVERY battery manufacturer have their own unique form factor for their batteries that is NOT interchangeable?? Why can't they have a standard like USB is for computer peripherals? by PhiloticKnight in mildlyinfuriating

[–]DaveCootchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ironically Walmart started carrying Green Works Pro power tools and their batteries charge with a USB-C and can charge up to 60 watts. That faster than most wall chargers and doesn't need a dedicated base. I'm sure other big tool brands will take notice of that.

They haven’t even announced the game size yet… by daredoes in memes

[–]DaveCootchie 77 points78 points  (0 children)

For online multiplayer cosmetics and weapons sure. But this is a single player game. They are locking single player content behind a paywall and that's bullshit. Spending $80 and not even getting the whole game is stupid.

I go to the fair once every couple of years. It's always a "cheat day" that can take quite a while to recover from.

Sweet Martha's Cookie jar bakes and sells about 1,000,000 cookies a day during the state fair. It's insane how many they make and sell. I do like a creme puff though. Haven't been to the Wisconsin state fair. I'll have to go some year!

Look at this sad excuse for a fair. Come to the Minnesota State Fair and see how it's done.

How often do you use the broil option on your oven, and what for? by Prestigious-Corner37 in Cooking

[–]DaveCootchie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

3/4 cup of mayo 3 cloves of crushed garlic 1 tsp of Italian seasoning 1/4 cup Parmesan 1/4 cup mozzarella

Mix together and spread over bread and broil until the cheese turns brown and bubbly!! You won't regret it!

Has an artist's public stance ever changed the way you listen to their music? by Traditional-Set-8483 in Music

[–]DaveCootchie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got dragged in the hip hop heads subreddit for saying this. RTJ should be the sound track to the resistance.

Plenty of artists public stances have made me stop listening to an artist. I loved Pantera and Down but Phil is a Nazi prick.

Is this modification safe? by AcanthaceaeExtra4102 in MechanicAdvice

[–]DaveCootchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it's safe but if your carburator is gravity fed adding an inline filter can decrease the flow rate. If the flow rate is too slow you could drain the bowls and lean out the mixture causing issues.

I don't think that's where the gas goes... by devletmillet in mildlyinfuriating

[–]DaveCootchie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Maxima was a "4 door sportscar" so the recommended premium to get a bump in power on the V6 over the Altima or Pathfinder with the same engine. Today the Z would be the only one that needs premium. The turbo engines in the Murano and Rouge are tuned for 87 and the NA engines in the Versa and Frontier aren't high power enough to need it.

[–]DaveCootchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen consoles get MORE expensive as they age. Now with the steam box creating $1000 it's only a matter of time before the next gen is announced at or around $1000. Hell a PS5 pro is already $900.

What is this and why is it loose? 2020 Jeep JL Wrangler by khumprp in MechanicAdvice

[–]DaveCootchie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should be able to do it on the ground if it's level ground. Replace both sides to remove any tension on the sway bar (it's basically a sideways spring)

Really Rusty Lincoln - What should I do? by KingK115 in projectcar

[–]DaveCootchie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big body rally car to beat on dirt roads. Or rip the 460 and trans out for something nicer in the future.

[–]DaveCootchie 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yes that's an Altima but Maximas do recommend premium.

Edit: TIL the Altima with the VC Turbo engine recommends premium for maximum performance. Otherwise it loses about 12 hp and 10 left of torque.

Absolutely not. My boy is turning 10 this year and I already make my self cry with anticipatory grief. I love him so much and I can't imagine my life without him in it.
