My 2008 Wrangler gives you the codes when you cycle the ignition a few times. I don’t think it lets you clear them, but at least can tell you if it’s a serious one.

tRump’s DOT de-regulators are working hard to rid you of these bothersome wear-bars. Draft regulations will only require that the tire manufacturers provide consumers with a penny.

It’s amazing just how well good pilots operate. It’s as if in an emergency they shut down all the extraneous parts of themselves, and only the analytic and expert stuff comes out. It’s not like they’re machines - quite the opposite, they make decisions and improvise in ways machines simply can’t - but rather, as if…

For at least 2 decades (that I’ve been an adult and paying attention) the GOP has refused to acknowledge the data that the people/groups/races they believe are burdening/abusing the “welfare” systems contribute to generally 1-10% of the infractions. Meanwhile a huge percentage of our population votes to destroy…

1) no billionaire puts in a billion dollars worth of work, their workers do

Oh brother I totally agree with you in the fact that not everyone can handle the schedule and the labor, it definitely isn’t for everyone, and there’s a lot of people who are physically broken to the point where they wouldn’t last out there, and sadly there just isn’t a lot of programs set up for those people except…

Glad it worked out for you. There’s only so many oilfield or oilfield type jobs to go around though. And there’s a lot..I would say most..people out there that physically can’t work an oilfield. The problem with looking at systemic poverty with bootstrap mentality is money and jobs are a zero sum situation. Not…

That’s almost exactly what I said in my main comment.....

I work on a frac location, it’s 100% safety first these days. The worst accidents I’ve personally seen are lacerations and a few broken ankles from tripping over iron and hoses. There’s tons of different jobs out here and a frac location is pretty damn safe. I can’t soeak for a drill rig I’ve never worked on one.…

A well considered, intelligent post. Nice. You highlighted that there are some options for some people, but not necessarily everyone. I wish the administration had your ability to give context and perspective. And to translate that nuance into policy.

Yeah but what is your life expectancy out in the fields? I know plenty of people who have/ had those jobs. None are better than 80% of the person they went in as, one is permanently mentally handicapped, two others are on disability due to losing limbs, and another we are all pretty sure had some mental damage based…

When I lost my job years ago due to downsizing and outsourcing, I was crushed having 3 small kids and a stay at home housewife and mother by my side. I promised myself a long time ago I would never be on stamps and welfare or whatever. I made the very hard decision to go into the oilfield in West Texas and although…

Yep.

The issue isn’t really people of different races, it’s first-generation drivers. It just so happens that a large portion of Chinese and (in my case) Indian immigrants have never driven a car before and have no concept of how to do so. My area has a large Indian population. My neighborhood is filled with Honda Odysseys…

Please cut this racist nonsense out. Statistically speaking Asian-American drivers are safer drivers than drivers of other ethnicities, and their insurance rates back it up. I saw an elderly lady drive the wrong way down a one way street in town the other day with two wheels on the median and the other two in the…

Right?! I thought I was the only one thinking that! Geez, people!

Wow, so much racism here. As a Caucasian male, I can say that white people do a lot of shitty driving too. I frequently see people of ALL races and ages moving from the farthest lane on the left to the farthest lane on the right, cutting off a few cars and almost hitting a median to boot, to get where they are trying…

Merica needs more people like you.

Probably have to deflate all the tire to 12psi.
