I had the same problem figuring out the high beams on my Bronco. At first encounter very frustrating but now I love the system. The system is toggled on and off with the lever on the steering column. The owner’s manual really does help

I love that sports are a great source of entertainment and in the end it just doesn’t mean a thing. This from a man who had a season ticket to the Red Wings for 20 seasons and traveled to see them in “enemy” arenas.

Btw I’ll never meet you IRL but you’d be a guy we could watch a game with together. Come to think of it I Am looking for a new place to call home and I seem to remember you’re married to a realtor. 😂

The one item I hung I immediately regretted choosing the location and now I’m second guessing every choice. 9 foot ceilings; how high should I hang them? I’m lost

I only put up one item on the walls of my newly built house; I’m reluctant to hang up my pictures on virgin drywall 😄

It was a Chevy dealer that sold him the bad car!

A dealer did this to my nephew; he made them buy the used car back after the check engine light came on and it was found whomever had leased the car had removed a lot of the emission related parts to improve performance….and it voids the warranty. He had taken out a car loan. What a pain.

Most auto parts stores will pull codes for free. Drive it for a few times and shut it off; it takes more than one drive cycles for codes to set if they have been cleared. A seller can clear codes & when you drive it the first couple times it is fine then the codes return.

Did you buy it or are you considering the purchase? I’d drive it a few key cycles to see if any diagnostic codes set.

Tigers had zero runs, I left my tv to look for something and now it’s 3-3….I should quit watching altogether 😂

I finished reading “To Kill A Mockingbird”, put down the book, drove to trivia night and the 2nd question was “who was the character that narrated “To Kill A Mockingbird?”” Seriously! 🤷‍♂️

“The Ku Klux’s gone,” said Atticus. “It’ll never come back.”

Sadly, not true…hate never dies

I was feeling the need to reread “To Kill A Mockingbird” and wondered if I had a copy. Two copies among other favorites

Several classic novels: True Grit, The Grapes of Wrath, To Kill A Mockingbird, and The Catcher In The Rye

Nassar loved buying up brand names: Jaguar, Land Rover, Aston Martin, etc, instead of investing in Lincoln or Mercury. Huge failure. Mullally sold them and focused on Ford and sorta Lincoln.

They burned through cash like a sailor on a bender on shore leave when Ford Motor Company owned then under the Jac Nassar years…looks like nothing has changed
