Excellent LED headlights would be amazing, especially with automatic high beams and curve adaptive lights as standard on all base models.

This just sounds like a version of sheet mulching but instead of having several thin layers to increase nutrients/air and smother weeds they just used one massive layer of coffee pulp compost. any gardener can tell you that introducing compost will add nutrients and refresh soil, increasing plant growth. combine that…

its important that if over the counter medication doesn’t completely clear you, you need to escalate the situation with your doctor. the best results I have had is with an oral antifungal once a week and a once a day prescription medicated body wash. the 2x a day lotion was hard to work into my routine to be…

I have an answer but you won’t like it

The Art of Manliness published a good maintenance checklist back in 2013.

Has no one suggested the Kia Soul EV? Air cooled batteries so you definitely want a state of health report on the batteries when buying used but a fully loaded 2017 EV+ goes for around 11k in Maryland. the 2018 model had an increase in battery size and range so they are at a premium going for around 15k. its an EV…

Well-well look. I already told you: I deal with the god damn customers so the engineers don’t have to. I have people skills; I am good at dealing with people. Can’t you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?

Maybe I’m old fashioned but I always cook my corned beef in the same pot as my cabbage/potatoes/carrots/parsnips. My mother would boil/simmer it in a giant pot as a kid and I’ve done that as well as the baking method in an enameled cast iron pot. my favorite so far has been the instant pot.  I just do it in phases…

I love the idea of a capable pickup truck that has the utility I need on the weekend and the efficiency to still be a great commuter for my desk job. instead we’ve been hit over the head with overpriced and overengineered monstrosities. the exterior and price point for the alpha Wolf are perfect for me. they…

Even though this article is only a day old I believe they just reduced the income range eligibility for stimulus checks. looks like the article needs an update as none of the calculators have this change incorporated.

The 2021 kia esoul website is still disabled. I found no indication that it is coming back. Summer of 2020 it was reported as dead.

I like it too but it’s not a van, it’s a Tall Boy. 

The 2020 Soul EV was pulled from its launch in the US market.   

Any new Tallboy EV would be a step in the right direction. Beats a CUV any day of the week. I’m still waiting to see if we will ever get the new Soul EV in the US. it’s not looking likely.

We have a 2018 Sedona we just got in July with the help of Tom McParland and we are loving it. I have to admit that the new Carnival looks great but I am surprised that they didn’t make a PHEV option. that’s basically the only thing going for the Pacifica in my mind when we were looking at minivans. seems like an…

The Kia Trailster would have likely been an excellent fit if it ever made it from concept to production.  

Wednesday? Amazon Releases their shows at 12am Coordinated Universal time so if you are on the east coast of the US you can watch it starting at 7pm Tuesday or earlier if you live in a timezone west of Eastern Time.

god I hope they aren’t covered in random blue accents like the Niro EV. 

the only thing I need more of is room. I’m not one of those big guys that needs more power. I’d drive a smart car if I was comfortable. love small cars in general. I was super excited about the new Soul EV but it looks like we won’t get that in the US. I hate the stereotype that since I’m bigger I need to drive an SUV…

I’m 6'6 and weigh 370. both of my femurs at the knee are deformed from birth leading to premature osteoarthritis in both knees. I was a lean 220 once and a division 1 collegiate rower but the arthritis and autoimmune gastrointestinal disease contributed to my weight gain after college.  I’m 36 with 2 kids under the…
