I get my kicks riding my 650cc ATV. Jetted carb, non stock exhaust and modified air box. 

Be careful Brother we almost lost another couple up here when they lost the 4 wheeler.

I turned on the television this morning to watch the Queen's funeral.   I thought it would serve as background but it is hard to take my eyes off this event!  It is incredible spectacle and a most fitting tribute.  There are a few historic events that will be permanently etched in my memory, and this will be one of them!

Christ was wrapped and buried before sunset with but a small number. I mentioned this to the wife as she absorbed the Queens death and funeral of 11 days. Her reply? 

 

"The Brits didn't bury Christ". 

 

Yes Dear.

My congresswoman who I shared in the video above stated that; if Jesus had owned an AR15 he might have not been crucified.......doubt Boobert knows who the Queen is....LOL

Nor does she know or respect the power of angles.

 

Matthew 26:52,53 Records Christ words during his arrest when Peter defended him with sword:   

 

 

Then Jesus said to him: “Return your sword to its place, for all those who take up the sword will perish by the sword.  Or do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father to supply me at this moment more than 12 legions of angels?

 

She has no idea how powerful a single angle is? 2 Kings 19:35: 

 

And that night Jehovah’s angel went out and killed a hundred and eighty-five thousand men in the Assyrian camp: the first thing in the morning they were all found dead corpses. 

 

A single angel killed 185,000 Assyrian solders in the course of an evenings work. 

 

A Roman Legion In the first century was 6,000 per legion.

Christ could call for 12 Legions! It was allot of angels. 72,000 of them.

Not interested in the Queens death. Tired of the coverage.

I’ve noticed in my life time anytime we disregard history or reasonable laws we’re usually worse off. From what I’m able to see she brought  joy during her time. If only more people could be as honorable as she was.

Well it's either that or mainstream American media might have to actually discuss issues facing our nation!

Our dog has caught up to us in age.  Her age-related aches and pains are expensive and creates a huge pain in our budget!   Don't forget Princess when planning future activities.   You may be tough, but a loyal and loving pet in their time of need can have you spending a lot of money in medical care!

Budget? Haven't had one for many years but I do remember when we did.

Sometimes your at hoot. Everyone has a budget. You wouldn’t buy a 500K house on a 50K salary. Of course as you get older it’s gets ingrained. So as far as a written down budget that usually goes away. So does wasteful spending.

I make a deal with my pets.

 

I won't take one second of life from you that you wish to live.

I won't make you live one second longer than you wish.

 

That deal, for me, does not have a price. That doesn't mean I'd be unwise. He needs a knee at 12 he gets it. He has liver cancer....nite-nite sweet prince.

By budget I mean back in the day we had to stick to a budget to pay bills, not now. So I don't have a budget today and buy whatever we want. Is there a limit, sure couldn't buy a Lamborghini but I could buy a nice vehicle. 

So the term budget varies.

Your deal is sound but not easily kept!   Twenty years ago we agreed to no more pets because of the tough times when the end is part of the discussion.    This agreement didn't last long and here we are again!   My default position is Princess wants to live and money will not unduly influence this position.

We’ve always had little dogs. Sometimes 2. The last had distemper. We got it from the shelter as usual. I’m glad I didn’t know the original care taker, I would have hurt the ….. I don’t know why people get pets that don’t care for them. The poor little thing was suffering but was always wagging it’s tail definitely wanted to live. The shelter had some meds to try, the vet said it’s days were numbered. Now 4 years later with only a few teeth and a tick that never stops. She the most loving happiest dog we’ve ever had. When my wife picks up the little spoiled animal it actually hugs her neck. I’m actually animal tolerant my wife is the animal lover. I’m actually kinda attach to this one. Although I don’t let on. Strangely the dog has a club. It will try to tare  you up if you enter her territory with out proper introduction. It’s funny to watch knowing it couldn’t bite though a sock. Saying that there is a limit to expense versus quality of life. We’re not going to spend the kids inheritance on a animal. I know it may sound cold there’s always another that needs a good home. Even though it may not be as special like this one to a non animal lover like me.

    • I find it amusing the OP doesn’t realize this threads heading includes several engines. He should have posted in the off topic section if he wanted a more narrow focus. I really appreciate and find amusing that he actually pointed out one of my many vehicles. The Odyssey. That happens to use 0-20 oil. I love pushing his buttons. 
    • 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.
    • Better than stock but that's like putting lipstick on a pig
    • 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, 
    • 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.
