    What have you done to your car today?

    So I will say...I did this same job with my wife 01 outback years ago....that one was actually worse, but I eventually got it...so in my head...I knew I just needed to keep hitting it and eventually it would break loose. But yes, I did consider replacing the whole knuckle. Funny side...

    I have to say I'm not sure I get the appeal of these. Is it the look? Bc they certainly aren't light.

    sadly the press isnt going to do much for this job...they bolt in...but once they are in and rusted nicely, they are a bastard to get out The passenger rear was the nosiest one....my wifes 2018 3.6 has 96k on it. But while I was back there, I just did both of them. Fuck that is a miserable...

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    Meantime...while republicans, Cuomo, MAGA, whatever group of nuts Laura Loomer and company belongs too are all tying Zorhan mamdani to the 9/11 attacks.... Trump is meeting with the Saudi crown prince (where 15 of the 19 911 hijackers were actually from) to sell him almost 50 F35 fighter...

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    So far in what has been released (and there is going to be way more to come), Trump is mentioned over 1500 times. The last release is pretty damming...that trump knew what Epstein was up to and did nothing about it....which COLOR ME SHOCKED. Case in point that even if there is something in...

    What have you done to your car today?

    lol, ya....this took quite a bit of scouring the garage...and I have to say I was SHOCKED how much force you can put on that thin metal that makes a filter wrench.

    I do agree...the incentives are a good thing to help drive innovation...they are needed...but in the case of Elon...what has it actually done? It has created a self important oligarch...With all of the money he has made he bought himself a position in our government...He then used this position...

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    Eh, except that Elon and Tesla has earned nearly 10 billion in regulatory credits....We the tax payers have a massive vested interest in the success and failure of Elon's companies...We backstop him and countless other too big to fail companies....Electric cars have only been able to get any...
