Re: New Volvo 850 Purchase!
Congratulation. If you plan to do all the maintenance and repairs, then you are in for a treat or two, or more. I have a 96 855t and from my experience this is the most logically and practically designed vehicle of it's size and weight. There is more information available than any other car. There m...

Re: Penzoil Synthetic from natural gas
ecbskyes, Thanks. Popular opinion touts Mobile 1. It seems to go dark more quickly than this Penzoil with the same viscosities. I use color as the indicator for an oil change. Like many 850's, odometer gear has broken again. I have the battery disconnected too often to use the trip computer. Therefo...

Penzoil Synthetic from natural gas
My Fellow Enthusiasts, I seem to be having good results from this oil. It takes longer for it to become dark, and doesn't cause any of the problems attributed to the brand of manufacturer. Anyone know anything factual about this topic? I would like to know. This oil is about $10 less at HD than O' o...

Re: Coronavirus Thread
I concur with the previous posts. The press would better serve the public by explaining how Congress spends our money rather than hyperbolizing single events like this virus and celebrity deaths and scandals. NPR is no better than FOX. (which invites the question: Is it impossible for Donald Trump t...

Re: What is a good material to cut my own trunk mat?
I have used a discarded Persian style rug after cleaning it at the car wash, industrial carpet, and currently am using a custom fit cardboard with a uhaul furniture blanket, cut and taped underneath.
