  1. Linex here. Great results on my dodge.
  2. I used grange for agreed value insurance on my Supra as the policy is handled much in the same as my other vehicles except the specifics with agreed value portion. No restrictions for usage generally seen with any classic car insurer. Granted I did have to appraise the car to get it covered. DP
  3. Adams , Griots speed shine and kenotek are my choices.
  4. Sensor is by one of burners. Simple fix. $10 part . What brand of unit?
  5. Look for places that sell welding gas and they will have it! Better hurry as you will only have to noon.
  6. I wanted to give my thoughts on this class post my attendance on Mar 4th. When I first heard the class was 12 hrs I really wondered what was needed to require that total duration. Was the class 50/50 for lecture vs range or what? Needless to say 12 hrs with Joe's class and range teaching goes by pretty quick. His technical background and awareness is what will make you think twice, three or four times about some of the actions you do and the consequences in your day-to-day life. His explanations of gun handling, safety around yourself/others, how law enforcement may approach you once you have such license, and potential experiences in situations that you could be presented with at any moment are just the key things I took away from this class. Personally, I didn't go into this class thinking I knew a lot or enough to provide a comfort to myself if a firearm is in the room with others (even though I own one). I now feel more comfortable about whats ahead and feedback he gave about shooting. My friend and I both agree that the class is far more than taking a test and putting a few rounds in to click off to a target. The technical discussion is where the real value is with Joe. He also commented about the other classes he offers for more specific firearms training. I'm going to take him on one of those once I get more time with my AR under my belt this year. The only downside to the class was something he couldn't control, the weather.. Damn it was cold and it took 3x to get that smoke smell out of my clothes from that day! Now I just need to get my Weimys trained like Murphy. That dog is awesome on all fronts and reminded me way too much of one of my prior dogs. http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m164/suprafied/photo_zpsrslggsor.jpg' alt='photo_zpsrslggsor.jpg'>
  7. Joe, My wife is not able to make it but my friend wants to also join. Can we be both booked for the 4th vs. 11th? I won't have issues with my dogs as previously mentioned. DP
  8. Using HR Block for the last 10 yrs. No issues and I've seen returns and dues depending on what was done that year (house sale, purchase, business investment, 1099s, etc.) DP
  9. Most are going to be low now due to winter blend. Give it a couple months and all that will change. In the meantime you could source VP C85 or Ignite E85 for true 85% ethanol fuel. DP
  10. Using the Ecobee here with one sensor + thermostat. Overall it does the job and allows for geo-fencing to know when to throw the system into "away" mode as soon as it senses my wife are both away from the home. It also has nice feature to see the run time, humidity level, and outdoor temp to see how the system runs but I must use my IPad to see this versus my IPhone. There are simple reminders to notify for minor maintenance and prevent excessive system demand from another/child etc. (say they turn the heat up to 90-F. System will override and notify you of the infraction therefore forcing it back to schedule.). I've had other high end WiFi units in my past house (Bryant Evolution) and honestly I prefer this due to simplicity. Eco-bee also is only partly by Carrier now which I foresee them taking over in the long term to bring future offerings to their COR system (similar to the evolution from Bryant since Carrier-> Bryant-> Payne = UTC).
  11. I herniated S1-L5 and bulged L5-L4 from weight lifting when I was 26. I tried PT and chiropractic care that eventually resulted in going to get an MRI. MRI immediately showed the issue and thats when I sought out 3 orthopedic surgeon opinions. Of the (3), I chose to go with the 3rd as he gave a fair outlook. He basically said avoid surgery unless you can't move or the pain is that unbearable. Shortly thereafter, I went ahead with 2 injections only at a 6 month interval. First injection worked pretty well. 2nd was worthless as it essentially was non-apparent after 24hrs. In the past 10 yrs I have fought this pain running down either or both legs when trying to drop the weight I gained from lack of being as active. Prior to and right up to the time of the injury I was very active gym wise and lost a considerable amount of weight 5 years before this injury presented itself in 2006. Overtime I have found these to be the "triggers" and "relievers" for this injury. Avoid long term usage: 1. Hard soled shoes (primarily dress shoes) 2. Concrete floors Be cautious with: 1. Leg press 2. Long distance running (short burst okay but number of cycles may need to be considered) 3. Squats 4. Excessive walking (i.e. 25000 steps in a day) 5. Any exercise that put a lot of strain on lower back/hip region. What has helped: 1. Good shoes ( I don't wear any gym shoes but Nike Air Max. Work shoes are Nike air max boots unless I have to visit a customer's site for troubleshooting). 2. Aleve at time helps the pain from swelling if I overdue it with one the activities. Ibuprofen doesn't have an impact from 3-4 pill consumption daily. 3. Decompression (teeter totter can offer this). 4. Swimming (i'm not a fan, but the impact is almost nonexistent compared to running) 5. bicycle riding
  12. I assume the lunch break is 1 hr. Can this be adjusted to 1.5 hrs to let my dogs out to relieve themselves? 12 hrs is a long duration to leave my dogs in their cages if I attend with my wife. If she chooses otherwise then it won't matter. DP
  13. Nice find... my plan is to find a C5 Z06 for track duty in the near future preferably in white.
  14. Who will take them and give the typical $5-15 refund for them? I have a couple due my replacements in my Ram 3500.
  15. (1) Used Michelin Energy MXV4 S8 P215/60/16 7/32" left of tread. $25.00
  16. Nice job and work on bringing a replacement back to life.. Hope to you see you out at Mid-Ohio in the spring with my MKIV. DP
  17. Performance Auto spa. They did my supra after I removed the original tint and did my wife's '16 IS350. They will be installing tint on my dually in the spring. DP
  18. Do the rubber dime pattern on the floor
  19. no pre-inspection. The car had some nasty scratches from carpet falling on it a couple years ago. I was able to wetsand/buff 98% of it out. I did the turn-in over 6 months ago.
  20. Just did this with Lexus to get another. No issues at all including the window tint that was still present. Granted the car I turned in looked better than the new one I was picking up for my wife. No out of pocket costs were applied post the final inspection at the dealer.
  21. I know Dayton has some support from a local dealer who sells new high brands as well. I don't think this dealer has had enough impact to overtake the Dayton event like what has happened in Cbus to spin off another group post the initial like you started. If this happens in Dayton then I could foresee the same situation repeating itself and dwindling the interest.
