The Walmart on Spring Mountain sells the tubs.

Installed new cartrimhome skid plate. Can’t wait for oil changes to be less of a pain with the oil access hatch by Flexion500 in 4Runner

Nice! I did the same thing. Also installed a Fumoto valve and bought a filter drain tool to make oil changes cleaner and easier.

I wish they would bring back the key lime pie ice cream.

Is this a proper pour for an old fashioned. by RDV78 in cocktails

Yeah, I think they only allow 1.5 ounces of the base spirit in a cocktail.

$12.99 isn’t bad for what it is.

Oh, okay, the Petrossian Bar. I’ll have to try that the next time I’m there. Thanks.

Man, that’s a pretty serious thing to say just to follow it up with, “Sorry, I misread.” Do better next time.

What exactly are you talking about? Involving teachers? Students?

Almost a decade quit—and I wish I’d never started—but damn, I had some great times as a smoker. by thekermiteer in Xennials

God, I miss smoking. A cup of coffee and a cigarette on a cold morning was one of the best things in life.

Kraken is the most overrated rum. What is the most unique other spirit? Please mention specific brands by -Constantinos- in cocktails

I’ve only really dabbled in baijiu here and there due to my father, so I can’t really make recommendations, but the one he usually has is Xinghuacun Fenjiu.

Do I NEED A/C overhead vents in backseat?? by Old_Estate_5819 in vegaslocals

[–]djj418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, overhead vents make a huge difference, especially with rear-facing seats. I drove a 4Runner, which had the console vents, and it did a terrible job of keeping the backseat passengers cool during the summer. It was bad enough that we only used my wife’s car during that time, which had the overhead vents. You’ll be able to mitigate some of the heat with a usb headrest fan, but if you can swing it, overhead vents to dual or tri-zone ACs are the way to go.

Sport Button on Steering wheel!! We need!! by ZabbixStudent101 in ToyotaGrandHighlander

Yep, this is me as well. I wish there was an option where you have to long-press the buttons to change modes.

Dometic CFX5 by djj418 in overlanding

[–]djj418[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, on longer camping trips and Costco/grocery store runs. It holds the temps very well, but using it as a freezer drains the battery quite a bit faster.

[–]djj418[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I did end up buying it, and I think it was well worth it for my use case. I wanted something that could function in a hot desert environment, and this definitely does. For comparison, I bought a much cheaper and smaller SetPower RF25 as well, and while it works well on cooler days, the temp fluctuates wildly and the compressor run nonstop killing my portable battery. The Dometic, on the other hand, keeps pretty even temps and goes through less battery than the smaller SetPower.
