I feel the need every once in a while to remind people what the shut down was all about originally. Slow the spread, remember? Not to overwhelm the hospitals. That’s been done. Some governors are drunk on power. It’s easy to tell who. Remember in November.

I’m wondering. Remember H1-N1? Mass hysteria? Stock Market going crazy? Who’s going to make money? Who’s pushing the most hysteria?

I work in a gov't office in a secret underground undisclosed location, as they say.  No, really.  We received a briefing from an epidemiologist in Washington State.  He said that if you put someone in

With all the fist ponding and complaining. He never shut down the subways. The probable breeding ground for their epidemic. Plenty of empty hotels and beds available for essential workers to stay in for the month. But noooo take the subway. They probably got infected at work at the hospitals. I doubt it happened on the subway. These are the people we’re supposed to listen to.

At 65 I’ll be able to live on SS. But I don’t have to. When ever lemons came my way I made lemonade. The one thing I could depend on is this in the United States. Greed has nothing to do with it. Providing for my family and my future did. I’m lucky I’ve made my way prepared for my future. The thing that concerns me the most. Is a virus that could change our rights. Not cause me death. And people think it’s okay. That’s not greed, that’s life.

I'm 66 and SS won't crack the nut but it and the nest egg might. That is if...…(read the previous post) Thankfully I navigated the sea of GREED better than many. Luck had absolutely nothing to do with it. Who I can thank is God for a great workshop manual for life and a son willing to die for us. Who I can thank are my parents and grandparents who lived through everything that affected man since 1870's and beat some commons sense into me. Who never whined about how rough it was, how scared they were, how events shaped and changed the landscape of their freedom. 

 

 

Yea, life changed and yet everyone survived. No...thrived. In spite of the greed. Not because of it.

Question Stan.

Is there anything you don't have the RIGHT answer for?

I was getting really to compliment you on our sometimes frustrating sometimes opposite side of these arguments. Then you hit me with the exact sentence I can easily hit you with. You have the benefit of results that happen quickly. Coming from a lifetime of struggling at times with family business. Starting with my grandparents. I have first hand experience of what can happen when outside forces get involved with business. The ripple effects of those events. My earliest the 70s oil blockade. The 08 housing crisis. This virus. The pain and suffering as the result. It takes longer and is just as deadly. Instead of being on a small scale. It’s much bigger. I’ve seen it, live it. I know what’s coming. This will take longer and will be more painful. We’ve been forced into with no choice. It’s un American. In the late 70s we moved and started over. What’s the more than 30 million supposed to do. Your just too damn stubborn as the result are changing. New realizations come forward. You’re stuck on the same narrative. As others are changing. I’m going to agree to disagree. And not answer you on this topic going forward.

New York, New Jersey aside. Some states are holding the brakes longer even as their numbers are dropping. Much to the dismay of their residents. It doesn’t take too much imagination as to what letter is next to their name.

Drunk on power is exactly right. Our governor here will be the last to open things up. My thing is open the states back up and everyone wear a mask inside business until further notice people here in Maryland have had enough of this lock down crap and it shows out on the roads as when lock down first started hardly seen anyone on the roads now traffic is almost back to normal and WERE STILL IN A FRIGGIN LOCK DOWN. I have had enough of this bull$hit lock down. You damn right I will remember in November but our governor is on his last term so he doesn't give a $hit.

The restaurant I went to last night was a main course with a side of hand sanitizer. It was everywhere. Little marked spots on the floor where to stand. They had mask and gloves. They get it.

My personal opinion, no one knows the true numbers, they got caught lumping other causes of death and labeling it as Covid related.   This is such a joke how they are making money off this unprecedented misfortune. The governor and the mayor of NYC, well yeah. It’s just a dik waving contest, anything u do i can Do better.   These two are BS

Yup, that governor in Maine is a whack job like ours here in Michigan. Our governor allowed Landscapers to go back to work over a week ago, but not letting guys like myself to go back till the 7th. I'm a concrete contractor doing basically the same kind of things a Landscaper does. I'm done waiting and we will start tomorrow.

I'm not clear on how having more covid deaths makes money. Could you please elaborate?

The cdc website updated the deaths in Michigan and now there less then half what they were. We will eventually see the real numbers and see that this is political for these Democrat governors.

      Missing thrust bearing? And oil selection

      By Black02Silverado · Posted

      Maybe, but it seems he is the only one that has backed up data to prove what he is stating. I think he is doing this more because he enjoys it and wants to get the information out to us. He's got the knowledge and access to the proper equipment and having the funds doesn't hurt.  I would love to do what he is doing and would do it if and when I hit the Powerball.  I'm not a Tribologist by any means but love to learn what I can.   I would bet there would be doubting people out there if a completely independent lab with high quality work and highly respected in the automotive industry, put out information like this.  The world can't be pleased, one just has to take the information that they are given, do more of their own research to find actual lab data to back up what they are trying to figure/find out.  Most don't bother, they just want to believe what they first see.     I don't have the minimax but my 6.2 in my 2019 Silverado with 64k miles shows excellent UOA results with 0w-20 and for my own purposes 5w-20.  Since not much of a change using 5w. I liked the data sheet information on the SS 5w-20 and figured I would give it a try.  Still the same viscosity at 100℃.   In the end we all just do what makes us happy, life is too short to get upset over trivial social media.   On a side note, I do feel GM has dropped the ball and just cares about the bottom dollar and not quality anymore.  "Like a Rock" has been long gone.  Seems "Built Ford Tough" has as well.

      Thoughts on these wheels?

      2026 sierra bad brake controller

      By flattop · Posted

      Hello, my 3 month old Sierra Elevation wont recognize a trailer with electric brakes? All the lights work correctly, but no power to the brakes?   This is the factory installed brake controller. If you manually push the knob, the display shows the power % but does not light up like my 2022 silverado.   I have an appointment with the dealer, but was checking to see if anyone else has seen this issue.    Thanks,

      Post your latest oil change.

      By Black02Silverado · Posted

      Been using SS 0w-20 from new, but wanted to change to the 5w-20 because I liked the data on the data sheet, to me it seems like a little better product. But as you can see, not much difference. This is also with running a mix of 10 gallons E85 to a tank topped with 93. It isn't a flex fuel vehicle so any higher I get a CEL for running lean on both banks. Yes my mileage takes a hit. Instead of 20 mpg I normally get on trips I get 17mpg. This is also using EaO17 filter.  What is amazing is I have the AMSOIL cone filter on it since I have the GM Performance intake installed and that air filter has 44k miles on it.  I just take it out and shop vac it off once a year.  I use the upholstery tool on my shop vac.  Works well.

      Starting a new thread regarding mounting my 2014 OEM wheels to my 2026

      By revmanii · Posted

      So, lot's of googling and reading, and a trial fit found, that indeed they hit the newer fatter caliper. I did some re-testing today, and found just 3/16" worth of washers was enough for the wheel to spin freely. I added 2 more on each, and again it spun freely. Tested lock to lock with the 4 washers, about 5/16" not quite the 3/8" Im considering, but pretty close. No issues. I've been looking at the BORA .375" spacers and using extended lugnuts to get back lost thread due to the spacer. All the ET lugs I've seen are all .33" reach inside the wheel lug holes. For those that don't like spacers or think they're unsafe, I think it depends on what type of spacers you're using and making sure you get good quality hubcentric ones, and if you're using bolt on ones, regular mainenance, checking the spacer lugs. Not wanting or needing that much spread. Looking for the minimum that will let me run these rims and tires.  it does look to stick out a little, but I really want put these on. and use the stock all-terrains in the winter.
