    Line-X or Fluid Film Type Underbody Coating

    Newer cars you shouldn't have to work on them that much. I'd personally go with a non-permanent product like Fluid Film, Wool Wax, or Surface Shield since by the time you get your vehicle, there's already rust in places you'll never be able to prep properly to coat it with a paint or "permanent"...

    Ford EV Frustration

    Full as in all spaces are taken? I'd put a 20 spacr 100A subpanel in next to it and you're back to 18 more open slots. The other option is using 2 double breakers in existing circuits then install your new 2 pole 240V breaker for the new outlet.

    Credit Card with rewards

    Same here. I use multiple cards depending on their rewards. Citi Double for all general purchases at 2% back. Costco Card for 4% on gas, 3% at restaurants and travel. Amazon for 5% back. Lowes for 5% off.

    Attic Floor Help. Attic Dek?

    https://www.sensorpush.com/ They sell through Amazon. The $50 sensors are made in China. The $70 are USA made and more resistant to moisture. I'd recommend the latter but had no problems with either for over 2 years now. Batteries are still good. I'd recommend the wifi antenna as well for $100...

    Attic Floor Help. Attic Dek?

    Just a solid MDF Lowes door. Better than hollow but I could back it with insulation as well Thank you Bob! I say I overkill things but then I tell myself that it's how things should be done to justify it lol. I have sensorpush brand sensors all around my house and garage to keep track of...

    Attic Floor Help. Attic Dek?

    Thank you! Mech. Engineering actually. I diverted my attention to house renos 6 years ago and really enjoy it, minus how much time it really takes to do it the way I want....

    Where to get quality hose clamps?

    I checked through my previous orders and clamps should be $6-$7 for shipping. Coils of drain hose was $16 and a longer box was $26. For ensuring that you're getting what you want (more than most other sources), it's not bad at all imo.

    Where to get quality hose clamps?

    McMaster Carr. They typically supply Ideal-Tridon. Get them in 316SS Screw/Band in any size you need

    Attic Floor Help. Attic Dek?

    I'd remove the insulation down to the joist in the areas you want to use for storage and install plywood or those grates. If the insulation is lacking, I'd use mineral wool (Roxul) for higher performance so you don't lose much R value and compared to fiberglass, much better air sealing. I'm...

    2022-23 winter car/shop projects?

    Bought a house 1.5 years ago and have been knee deep in a full restoration, one of them being the detached 24x24 garage. I have all of the walls insulated with Roxul and moving onto the roof rafters, which will also be roxul with baffles against the sheathing for airflow. Then pick a mini...

    Mattress time!

    I like my Serta king size and mattress topper from Costco. I think I'm in it for under $600 so for the price, I'm happy with it. I added a set of medium king My Pillows and I sleep a lot better since using them. Best pillows I've ever used.

    New Washing Machine Recommendations

    Those with Speed Queens or Maytag Commercials, one thing I didn't care for when researching was the smaller capacity of them and center agitator. The front loaders and top without agitator could wash a larger comforter, dog beds, etc more easily. Not to mention the agitator beats up the clothes...

    So, why is it so hard for women to use tin foil?

    Yes but if you microwave it in the uranium, 2 seconds is all you need!

    Floor Liners/Mats for an F-150???

    I prefer the Ford OEM ones. They usually match better and cost less.

    Fox Body Refresh

    Keeping it a solid driver gets my vote. Replacing worn out parts with nice upgrades like MM parts to keep it sporty and responsive if funds allow, otherwise repo parts and restoring what's there. These cars are at that age they really need a full gone through. I desperately need to do this to...

    Black Friday purchases - what’re you getting and where?

    Home Depot had a great Dewalt sale. Buy a battery set (4AH & 6AH with bag and charger) and get any select tool free all for $199. I got one set for a Christmas present and another for me. Too good to pass up!

    At what point do you think you'll stop caring about having stuff?

    It's tough balancing life as our priorities, interests, and situations change. I'm 36 and went through a marriage in my 20's without kids trying to focus on my job and see where my experience took me. I was always handy so I collected tools as I fixed my house up. I got divorced, dated, and took...

    Interesting video on differentials

    Funny how we've almost perfected these technologies and now going away from them with electric cars as if they are any better in the grand scheme. I much prefer the simplicity and rebuild-ability of what we have now. The future is weird.

    Q & A Session... - Ask a Ford Dealer

    They said they would do 84 months with $0 down which comes out to $640.09. Assuming the tax/title/fees get wrapping back into the loan it would put it around $43K which is around 7% to come up with a $640.09 monthly payment. I don't have exact numbers except the MSRP which was $39,500. I'm...

    Q & A Session... - Ask a Ford Dealer

    Are there benefits or downsides to leasing for 2-3 years then financing at the end of the lease? My GF had a 2018 Jeep Wrangler Sport she did this on and it worked out well for her (so we think) where she kept a lease payment under $400, then financed after keeping the payment under $400. I...

    Zero Turn Mowers

    I did a bunch of research between the Cub Cadet and Ariens XD 52" units since it's my first zero turn and mow about an acre and a half. The Ariens seems to get better reviews so that's what I went with. Price was $3,200 at a local dealer (Lowes sells it too) with the Kawasaki engine and so far...
