The only brand I have had experience with that has loaners is Lexus. You pay for that luxury, but they sure treat their customers well. Our dealer was 60 miles away and when we made an appointment, they asked if we wanted a loaner while they did the work. If you waited, they had a plush room...
We have a couple of cats and I haven't seen a rat in years. Occasionally, there will be a mouse that will make it into the house, but not since we rebuilt the kitchen in 2021. The few squirrels we have had went after the bird feeders, not the vehicles.
I picked up a DeWalt Atomic impact wrench for changing blades on my Toro. I already had several batteries, so that was the brand I got. It's going with me next trip, in case of a flat. It is tiny and delivers 450 ft. Lbs.of break away torque. It should take off lug nuts with ease, but only if...
I have a Samsung Galaxy watch that tells me I left my phone when I go outside. As soon as Bluetooth drops it starts letting me know. Apple watch has the same capability. It might be worth it with phone prices these days.
Mine works okay, I guess. I haven't been on a long trip, yet, so haven't needed it. My Samsung is in a case, and I had to move it around to find the sweet spot, but it started charging.
You only have to keep 3-5 years of taxes, unless you file a fraudulent return, then you have to keep them forever. Also, if you keep them the IRS can subpoena them.

My father had a Buick! 😎
Since 2018 or so I have found myself in the change oil once a year category. My vehicles are getting 5,000 miles a year or less, since we are no longer driving from Mississippi to Texas several times a year to care for elderly parents. So, how many miles between oil...
I had pop-up headlights and fiber optics to all the lights which was cool. The headlights, not so much. They made the front too light at high speeds and caused it to become unstable. OK, maybe I was driving too fast? It is like having a spoiler on the front, top edge of your car. Bad aerodynamics!
A lot of these were on my Avalanche! Seat memory, power passenger seat, fold flat rear seat, mid gate for bed pass through, auto tinting rear view and side mirrors, and outside mirrors that tilt down when you shift into reverse.
I have both! I bought the 2021 RAV4 in December 2020, trading in a 2014 F-150. It's been a great little SUV, but it wasn't a truck. Last year I traded in a 2012 Lexus CT for my Maverick. Both of them are hybrids. The downside is, if you want to pull anything with the RAV, 1200 pounds, if I...
I actually like my dealer. They have always been fair and don't try to screw me. I just got my first service, which was free since I bought my truck from them. Then, a few days later I took my Toyota in for oil and rotation and check things. I think they replaced a filter. It was $70 or so...
My wife will do Starbucks occasionally, but usually she will grind some beans from Black Rifle or some boutique roaster and have her pour over. I grab a Diet Mountain Dew, faster better tasting to me. Never could drink coffee. Tastes like burnt toast.
Congrats on the new Ranger. You need to...
A lot of businesses are charging extra for using a card, but I don't carry cash or a checkbook, so I pay it. They have to pay the rewards on cards, from what I heard, so I guess it's fair. I do get $1,000 a year back and pay off my card every month, so I come close to breaking even. Can you...
I am a geezer, too. I have the Lariat and love the ACC, but no lane centering for me! I fight those things all the time. I drive too close to the right side of the road and it tries to force me to the middle. I can't overcome 59 years of driving and I would rather drive myself!
