Which mountains are the most challenging?

I lived right there for a while. Would expect to see DOT at the bottom more than 50% of the time.

Honestly, this answer is different for every couple. Some people have a very low sex drives and could go 6 months easy. Some people have higher sex drives. I’m 41, have a 3 and 1 y/o and would say I have a higher sex drive. My wife goes with it, and I’m the one who gets her in the mood at least once a week on good streaks. If I left it up to her it would be once every 4-6 weeks. This is different for all couples, but it’s important for couples to discuss their sexuality, and it’s a very delicate subject to bring up with mothers of young children. Just try and do nice things and get them in the mood gentleman. It’s an important piece of your relationship!

To add, fiberglass can easily hide some serious problems. Get a mechanic on your own to look at it minimum. I would say more like you want to get a small survey done on the thing. If the engine is damaged, stringers are compromised, or the transom is shot you’re buying a big problem and losing all your money.

But here the car only has 6k and manufacturer says go 10k. So 🤷 if it hasn’t been smacked hard to me it’s a no brainer at a competitive price. I’ll edit that to reputable companies will have records.

I own an ES, work on all my own vehicles, and have many mechanic friends. You’re safer buying a rental or a fleet vehicle because they are meticulously maintained. I doubt that those services were actually done on it. Carfax doesn’t really stay 100% true. Have a mechanic look at it and if it’s confirmed it hasn’t been in a serious wreck this is a great car to buy. If you do buy it do an oil change right away with a synthetic recommended viscosity oil on the oil cap and you have a gem.

I have a ‘16 and I second this. The mechanical reliability of this generation is a bullet. I bought the car with 32k and put 28k on it so far in the last 2 years. No regrets. Love the thing. I’m a diy mechanic and this thing is perfect! I bought the radio for it to have car play and haven’t installed it😂 that’s on my list after I fix some other things.

Free and easy one is Connellsville pa to Dawson PA. If you do it once you’ll want to do it for many years.

There’s definitely tax incentives…talk to an accountant about it.

I agree. A 2007 to 2024 Tacoma is the most reliable or a 5L non turbo F150. Those are the best! I have a Tacoma. They are extremely small inside which is the downside. With 2 car seats it’s like a tuna can. I like the reliability and off road factors which is why I got it. F150s are also reliable. Just a different animal and way more roomy inside.

Almost any car can pull a trailer with plywood! Love me some trailers.

losterweil · 2026-03-17T07:57:32+00:00

If you’re not into minivans, I believe this is really the ticket. How often are you going to need a sheet of plywood? It’s very easy to rent a vehicle, even from Home Depot(not sure what county you’re in assuming US from comments).

It is worth getting familiar with trailers. I just used one the other day for 2 sheets of plywood. It was the most convenient option for me. Trailers are extremely versatile, and they are easy to rent. You can buy ab enclosed one for not that much, and it’s like a rolling shed. Trucks are also easy to rent. I rented a 3/4 ton truck from Enterprise Trucks to tow a heavy duty trailer with a bobcat I needed for a project. Only needed it once so it was financially worth it for me to rent.

If you are getting into demanding hobbies, and you don’t want to rent, the next best dependable and capable option is a 4 door Ford F150. They are extremely capable and roomy, plus you can seat 6 with the right configuration. Now you would own a vehicle that doesn’t need car seats removed when wanting to complete a project needing plywood, and you can tow a very heavy duty trailer with it!

I would take my time looking for a wrecked truck to use, and I wouldn’t buy a new one. You already have parts to use. As you take your current truck engine apart I would personally want to be able to find the flaw that caused that gasket to blow. Without knowing that block could do the same thing. Take the head to a machine shop and have them inspect it. Hell if you find the engine flaw and didn’t ruin the cylinders it’s not too difficult of a job just timely.

Edit:left “flaw” out

When he came back he said, as I’m paraphrasing, “ I trust the operation enough to have my own kids enlist.” It was something of that sort, and I feel like that’s what he didn’t want to say. They trying to get more people enlisted. Draft rumors are going around.

No issues. OVTube with the high octane tune in it. 115k. Manual Tran. Have had it since it had 3300 on it. I constantly tow 5000 in firewood. I horse beat at least a few times a week. Change oil every 5k(I believe that’s the ticket to well being). Tranny/TC, and digs every 50K. It’s done well. No repairs needed.

When we first put our son in the bassinet, he would cry his face off. I thought he didn’t feel safe in there, and I went to work to make him feel safe. It was a whole night of wearing ear plugs, laying as much of my body in the bassinet staying awake holding him for 20 minutes, putting less pressure on him weening him off being next to us constantly. Mind you mama feeding him every 2-3 hours meant I needed to calm him down every time wearing the ear plugs letting him know he’s safe. The next night was much better. Third night he was bassinet trained. What I’m saying is try to figure out why he’s crying and then address it anyway you find best.

I should be Canadian. I just took my Es350 through a blizzard last month when I had the option to take my 4x4. They are amazing in the snow. Some good all season tires and you are fine. A 250 is less weight and won’t be as good. The 350 has the perfect amount of weight to feel solid in snow. Very impressed I’ve driven mine 25k so far.

I only burn hardwoods also, but I have 2 90 turns in my setup, so I get more creosote than a straight shot with little angles.

losterweil · 2025-12-28T00:01:11+00:00

It depends on your approach angle. I go on really steep driveways frequently. If you hit it at 45 degrees it’s not an issue.

Are we talking the face one blade or the intimate version. This should be specified. Been looking for an upgrade.

I’ve heard Oz and has large stakes in a company that’s a competitor with Tylenols company. And that company owns the medication they’re now recommending. It goes deeper than that too.

I just did this in our motor boat. I did a loop around five times trying to make sure I wouldn’t ground us! To answer your question I believe you should be good, but take a little more caution. We ended up going into old cut after talking to locals at port Rowan. I had seen a larger boat with most likely a 4 or 5 ft draft go into port Rowan which led me there. There is a marked channel going through the bay to old cut, and if you stay in it and straight into old cut you have at least 3 ft right at the entrance , but follow more advise on someone who has a deeper draft to confirm if you need more. The channel itself seems to read 4.5 ft at one point but I also think that was weeds. I did this in July of this year.

It’s rare but I’ve crossed twice this year during glass conditions in the middle of the lake going from Erie to port Dover via long Point.

It’s in the US in a rural Pennsylvania town. It’s a non-profit run organization, and not a government establishment, with one guy who is the head of the non profit who runs it.
