    Which synthetic oil??

    Just to clarify - finding M1 for the '06 and earlier Sprinter diesels is generally no problem - it's the '07's and later diesels that are so fussy ... :D

    Interesting Concept

    Actually, I would argue that it is entirely characteristic of his usual levelheadedness. There are some who would argue that the US government (past and present) can do no right. They ignore what good has been done. And then are others who would argue that the US government (past and present)...

    Which synthetic oil??

    You can source the proper Mobil 1 oil for '07 and later Sprinter diesels at Mercedes dealerships - I understand from a friend that it is significantly cheaper than at Dodge dealers (about on par with M1 0w40 European Car Formula) Use of the incorrect oil will poison the DPF (diesel particulate...

    Fox News is the most watch cable news network.

    Layout, Sometimes you do just nail it ..... (leaving aside the "inside sources", "cover-ups", and "multiple shooters" of recent posts) The reason that Fox is as popular as it is isn't because they are "fair and balanced" (they aren't), it's simply because they provide an alternative to what...

    Which synthetic oil??

    Leo, That is my understanding - that the sensor was designed and calibrated to work specifically with at least one particular oil: Mobil 1 0w40 European Car Formula synthetic. It might also work with others (either dino or syn) - I'll try and check and see if I can find out more on it. The...

    Which synthetic oil??

    That was without the bypass - just using the stock, full-flow filter that comes on the engine from the factory. And I had that oil analyzed at that point (at change, when the sensor said it was due) and Blackstone said it was still good enough to run more miles. (I'm guessing that it could...

    First Reports on Ft. Hood

    Familiar with handguns ... well, maybe ..... familiar with the actual events as they occurred ..... well, probably not so much - given that you weren't there and didn't observe them. And he didn't have 2 semi-auto handguns. Oh - let's see if I understand this correctly - so now the MSM is ok...

    more info on bolt

    Well there Bunky .... I've managed to make it out here three plus years so far ..... in what one might say hasn't been the greatest of business environments .... I'm glad that your choice of carriers is working out for you. Landstar certainly has some advantages and things to recommend it -...

    Which synthetic oil??

    Good question .... and probably a hard one to answer - since it depends on how you define "best". I use Mobil 1 0w-40 synthetic - it's a good oil. I generally get around 15K miles before the oil quality sensor says it's time to change. Is it the best ? I dunno .... but Mercedes thinks...

    Obama pressed into role as healer

    Okay .... so now we've narrowed it at least to the fact that we are talking a male (apparently) ..... which I think excludes Hillary .... The above response really clarifies nothing ........ Wanna take another shot ?

    Mileage Accuracy

    I've had the miles come out both ways, under and over .... and occasionally dead on the nuts. Usually the difference is not significant. The one I did today was dispatched at 250 miles ... I ran it in 220 actual.

    Ft. Hood...Who Knew What and When Did They Know It??

    Known history of mental illness, prior to the attack. Should have never been admitted into the Armed Services on that basis alone.

    Ft. Hood Massacre: 12 Dead, 31 Wounded

    Yes, we are. Yup - I am in complete agreement. No, I really don't ...... as far as I'm concerned, there isn't any real understanding that can be obtained - understanding is rational, insanity isn't. The only thing I really care about is being able to identify such people - before it...

    Chavez Ready for War.....

    Wrong - just in case, you are incapable of making the differentiation: it wasn't at all wild-eyed lunacy that some radical, essentially stateless terrorists would attempt such a thing ..... they had already attempted targeting the towers with the original WTC bombing in 1993, and the plot to...

    Ft. Hood Massacre: 12 Dead, 31 Wounded

    Yeah, it is ...... and it probably happens daily, if not hourly ..... Someone is "dissed" and they kill someone as a result. That's correct - it isn't - no way, no how. You misunderstand - I am not excusing anything. In fact, I'm looking beyond a single individual, whose actions I don't...

    Ft. Hood Massacre: 12 Dead, 31 Wounded

    This is no excuse or justification for what he did - despite what attempts might be made by others to say that it is. For what he did, there can be none ........ ever. It was ultimately his choice to do what he did. But if it is indeed the case that he was taunted about his religion - and I...
