Just to clear the air concerning this study.

 

The following information was gathered using the latest and most sophisticated scientific and technical equipment along with the finest analytical tools known to man. The accuracy of this data is without error and is accurate to within +/- .0000128%. All personal opinions and consdierations have been removed and in no way has any affect on this data. :crackup::D

 

I live in a town of approx 15,000 in MS and because my Children are involved in Baseball and Softball, I spend a good deal of time at the ball field. I am sure some of you fully understand this. I have often noticed the high concentration of American badged vehicles that are at the ball park. My studies have provided the following:

 

1) An average of 117.5 vehicles parked at the field on game nights. (the .5 is a Kia & Kia's only count for 1/2 of a vehicle) :crackup: Ok 46% of a vehicle but I rouned it up.

2) An average of 67 (57%) of the 117.5 vehicles will be pick ups or full size SUVS. This alone tells you Baseball Folks are good people.

3) An average of 55 (82%) of the 67 trucks are American badged vehicles. Again, Baseball Folks are obviously good people. There are a few here with other :thumbs: brands. These likely are not really Baseball Folks

4) Of the 50.5 cars and wantabe SUVs that are left, 42 (83%) of them are American Badged. Once again, proving that Baseball folks are fine people. The owners of the other 8.5 vehicles are likely not at the game anyway. They are just using the parking lot to carpool to the Bingo game.

5) Overall 97 (83%) of the 117.5 vehicles at the ball field on any given night are American badged vehicles. With statisticcal accurate data such as this, I hope you agree with me that there is absolutely no doubt that Baseball Folks are as good as they get. :lol:

No, I did not count the cars in the parking lot. However, there is a very large % of the vehicles there that are American badged. Makes me smile as big as Texas everytime I pull into the parking lot.

At my grandsons baseball practice last night, I walked away to have a smoke, and while doing so I looked at the row of vehicles parked "all the parents stay and watch" ther were 6 Chevy trucks parked in a row. Now, how American is that? :lol:

You can't beat (most) Baseball folks. At our ball park complex there is about 60-70% trucks / SUVs. Out of those I'd bet that a good 70% are all American (branded). :lol:

    • You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling. 
    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
