  1. Mines still for sale. Really was a rock solid vehicle for me. It never failed me. wink wink, i'll throw in a old chain saw.
  2. according to this dealer the tool needed to replace this fancy pulley isn't even available to the dealers yet to order....Of course the new alternator they ordered was dropped by fedex and the pulley was smashed so, I'm waiting another day to get my truck fixed.
  3. The trend to diesel cars is in motion. But Hopefully more fueling stations will be more accommodating in the coming years. You ever tried to buy/pump def fluid at a truck stop? Complete mess. They're always broke or need a magnetic release to work and the big truck stops don't take normal debit/credit cards and you end up going in and out of the store 4 times and needing assistance as well as the employees are ungodly slow. I gave up on that fiasco and buy it at an auto parts store now and store it in my garage.
  4. Chevy Colorado with the Duramax 2.8. They put a liquid filled pulley on it to dampen the diesel pulses. I thought at first na that can't be it, alternators don't leak but yep that's it.
  5. My alternators leaking. Seriously.
  6. I'm guessing it's a fiberglass door and poorly finished fiberglass not actually the paint. I don't really know but it reminds me of cheap aftermarket fiberglass you would get for a quad or something.
  7. You want over 100k for this vette and the body panels look to be fit & finished by a high school body shop?
  8. I want to know who approved and got paid to change the name add/remove programs to some other name.
  9. actually it's some store tied in on the task bar and the apps work form that direction. This isn't a computer it's revenue generator tied around being tied in to some damn program so buy more crap. Vent over. Thank you for all your help.
  10. So I found this store she's talking about. It's the MSN store and then APPS.......THe stupid thing now says the PC time settings may be incorrect and to check them and it won't download the Netflix app because of it. What is all this crap. I don't have issues on any other devices because I don't stay linked to anything. I'm old and frustrated.
  11. Thank you but Screw it i'm done. I removed the protection so there is none on the external drive and the program keeps trying to upgrade again and filling the laptop with more gunk. You can't restart the upgrade. Im done with it. This laptop has no cd drive. The daughter keeps referring to putting apps back on like Netflix and some blue mail app. in my day you didn't have apps on your laptop you had programs with shortcuts. I'm done with it. I asked where you find these "apps" and she said the store on my laptop.....What store!!! What the heck is she talking about. She's linked in to this stupid Microsoft mail thing which is how you turn on the computer. Normally you enter a password to login to the computer but this password is also a direct link to MSN and auto logs her into MSN. I hate that. everything wants to be ties together to get you to buy more shit. Im done with it.
  12. Ugh. Windows 10, whiles saving to a external drive keeps failing the upgrade since the external drive is password protected even with auto unlock set on the laptop. Trying again with that protection removed.
  13. I don't see a windows.old. I think i'm good, thank you.
  14. It's like a year old. If 10gb is normal'ish for windows then i'll call it good. Got it up to 5.7gb available. Didn't realize Windows takes up that much space. It's designed to use one drive to store documents and pictures. She just uses for Microsoft office programs. I remember when 1GB was HUGE. Guess I'm old. So I was told WIndows 10 has issues and it's not really only free for a while. I have a TB drive I could download it to, to install, but do you think it's worth it. What will happen is down road she'll be like dad.....I need windows 10 this program won't work and now it cots money. So should I get Windows 10 now?
  15. Windows is taking up 10gb. Does that seem normal? I looked at windirstat but don't see any strange program. Recycle bin is empty.
  16. Can any computer guru's out there help me. It's my daughters HP Stream laptop, Intel Celeron N2840, running Windows 8.1. She tried to run the windows update to Windows 10 since they lie and say it's free till whenever. We don't need Windows 10 but when she tried to it said there is not enough disk space. 4.71GB available of 21.1GB. She's deleted about everything. I cannot find the files taking up all the space? Disk Cleanup didn't find much of anything. I started in safe Boot but it still shows the same amount of disk space available.
  17. Sandy soil is no match for all the food scraps.
  18. Why do I need to click something called community on Mobil to find the forum categories? I find it highly annoying and a waste of clicks And wonder what the heck is community, every time. O wait if I click community and click community again it's the forum categories. If I click community then forums it's the forum categories also. What's up with that?
  19. Try it. All the movie stars do it.
  20. We aren't talking about airbags for towing purposes are we.....
  21. I think I look younger now! Lol
