My Maintenance Schedule has stripped a gear...

That’s how you know I’m a generation removed. Saugy dogs for me. I never could quite warm up to a Red.

Only good hot dog is a red hot dog...

It’s a Maine thing..

I remember those as a kid, they came in 5 or 10lb white box and were all still attached together. I have not seen those here in Arizona.

 

[mwilson]

Yes, even today if you buy a bag of them they are all connected.

Mike, JR I’m sure your dogs are awesome. Given the chance, I’d love to try em. Like pizza, I never met a dog I didn’t like. That said, these here are a bit special. If you goto Manhattan, this is what you’d get from a pushcart. Yup they’re made in da Bronx. Boil em or grill em. They’re awesome.

The wife remembers those. She said that when you bit in to them from one of the cart vendors, they almost had a crunch to them.

What brand are the hot dogs? I love a good all beef hot dog. I have tried them all...the best I have found are the Great Value from Walmart...they are still the real deal!

Sams club, same as 0nes they sell at their food court. Whenever, we are close we stop and get a dog and an ice cream.

I believe that’s for a 5lb box shipped. I like em but but not enough to pay $34 a pound. They’re usually about $5.99lb at the market.

$85 for 2.5 lbs or $125 for 5 lbs, gotta be a rich logger

My quote was list price on a 5lb box but WITHOUT shipping. My error. They obviously prefer not to ship. No shipping involved for me. My wife stops by the market on her way home from church.
Of course, you could get a price on any 1 lb box of perishable foods shipped across country and compare. Probably comparable.

Circling back to my oil pan issues, what do you all think of this one offered from Geno's?

Would it be worth it over the replacement Cummins pan for $250 more?

If the OEM pan lasted this long, and this one should get some benefit from fluid film, I think I'd save the money.

No i wouldn't, thats the ine that i don't like.
To expensive for what you get for.

For me, I'd choose this one.

Yes its cheap, but its a steelpan, it is painted and i can replace it 3 times until i reach the price of the snodepot pan.

200$ vs. 700$ - no brainer.

Thanks.

Took the Wife to the doctors yesterday with a check engine on her 05 Toyota Sienna v6. This is the second time in a few weeks, shut it off,restart engine light off. Finally broke out the old XP laptop with the Alex Pepper OBD-2 software that I have not used in years and was worried I would spend most of the day to get it to hook up. To my surprise it connected right up. No engine light on but the stored code P0328KS1CHI(B2) came up. Saved the file and cleared the code. Now the bad part. The code refers to a knock Sensor Bank 1. That thing is $160.00 . To get to it the procedure is 10 pages long . It starts with removing the wiper assemblies, cowl panel, air box, air plenum, fuel rail and intake manifold to even get to the friggin thing as it is under the intake . Taking it somewhere is around $1k bill. They give a test procedure using an ohmmeter once you get to it but since it is intermittent I don't know if that would be valid. This 65 year old body may not stand up to this abuse especially after all the radiation and still going on Man Killer shots that leave me with ) testosterone (read no energy) . They say while you have it tore down this far to replace the almost impossible to get to rear spark plugs. Anyway I cleared the code and have not heard any unusual noises, ran fine, idled fine, wait and see if it comes back.

You do know that if it showed up once, it will happen again.

I'm my own worst enemy in these types of situations and never listen to my own advice, but now would be the time to trade or sell.

Yeah, the sell part has crossed my mind. The friggin thing only has 85k on the clock. The Az. sun has stripped most of the roof line clear coat, it has always eaten front disc pads every 16k miles. Toyota's steller reputation has not impressed me and we bought it new.

Friend of mine has had 2 of them, both AWD versions. The first one was I believe a 2009. It continually ate tires, brakes, and the automatic door closure motors.

His newer one is a 2017 I believe. It has been much better all around so far from what I understand.

Dave, make sure it’s not running hot, and why not try a better grade of gasoline?
Rule out what might make the engine knock.
