Doug pulled his car into his garage and then sealed the doors and windows the best he could. 

 

He got back into his car, rolled up all the windows, selected his favorite playlist and started the car. 

 

2 days later, a worried neighbor looked through the garage window and saw Doug in the car. 

 

She called 911 and the emergency services came out. They broke into Doug's garage and pulled him from the car.

 

A little sip of water and surprisingly he was in perfect condition, but his Tesla had a dead battery.

Let’s face it, American English is a stupid language when you really and truly think about it.

 

There is no egg in eggplant.

No ham in hamburger.

Neither pine nor apple in the pineapple. 

 

English muffins were not invented in England.

French Fries were not invented in France.

 

We sometimes take English for granted, but if we examine its paradoxes, we find that:

 

Quicksand takes you down slowly,

boxing rings are square,

and a Guinea Pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

 

If writers write, then why can’t fingers fing? 

If a vegetarian eats vegetables, then what the heck does a humanitarian eat?

 

Why do people recite at a play, yet play at a recital?

Park on driveways, and drive on parkways?

 

How can the weather be hot as hell on one day, and cold as hell on another?

 

You have to marvel and laugh at the unique lunacy of a language where a house can burn up, and yet it burns down.

 

English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race (which of course, isn’t a race at all). That is why, when the stars 

are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.

 

When a watch gets wound, it starts, but winding this up, it ends.

You can walk around Walmart eating grapes and nobody will bother you, but as soon as you pop open a beer, here comes security.

I always see more people walking into Walmart than I see walking out, but the meat is cheap, so I don't ask questions.

This one's for you, Grump:

 

How can you tell a Girl Ant from a Boy Ant?

Put them in water.

A Girl ant sinks. 

A Boy ant floats.

I see people my age out there climbing mountains and zip lining and here I am feeling all good about myself because I got my leg through my underwear without losing my balance.

Yea, they don’t show the next day,week,month. What I can do hasn’t changed. How long and recovery that’s a different story. I could and did drive 33 hours straight pulling my equipment. At 40 half that without resting. Now I stop a rest after 8. And needing to stop every 11/2 hours to walk around. My average mph for the 33 hour trip was 68 mph. Now with the wife it’s 50 mph per 8 hours. When I first bought this house 25 years ago. I could mow the lawn, weed eat, wash two vehicles run my errands by noon. Now it’s a continuous project for the week. And I have a monthly pass for car washes. And shops for vehicle maintenance. A monthly deep cleaning house service.

    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
    • I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!
    • I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
