NCIS Hawaii has been cancelled. Only the OG NCIS is on now. Not sure I'm interested in a Gibb's origin story. His past was always ever referenced as depressing in the NCIS show.

Heard some recent chatter about the movie Midsommar. People were saying it was good, creepy, etc. I finally decided to watch it tonight. Please give me my 2.5 hours back. I wish I had watched something else.

If you had 20+k sitting in your bank account and you didn't need to use it for anything what would you do with it? How would you invest it say for 5 to 10 years give or take? What would be the best roi?

Hell Yeah!!! Goodbye Bama!!

I actually just had the timing belt etc. changed in late summer this year. Last time I had it done was 2013. It had been 10 years.

Ok, so an update: My car has like 184+k miles on it just for reference. My mechanic said he's only been able to find one transmission it has 114k on it. It would come with a multi-year, unlimited mileage warranty. He said it'll run me $2800 installed. That's $800 more than I was expecting...

Another friend recommended going used as well. Yeah, definitely cheaper than buying a new car for sure! Thanks for your opinion. When I called Ken at Asian Auto Specilists he said they typically offer a 2 year warranty. If true that's awesome.

Still a work in progress. I just got back from a trip and brought covid home with me. Today's was the first day of calling around for pricing. The first estimate was from my shop (Asian Auto Specialist). They would source a used transmission and it would be between $1500 - $2000. He is going to...

I still can't believe I made this thread 6 years ago. Lol! The best thing to put on a sausage biscuit is grape jelly. Order a sausage biscuit from your favorite breakfast place and spread their grap jelly on top. It sounds crazy but it's delicious. It's the salty/sweet combo.

Anyone a fan of AAMCO transmission, or Tranco Transmission? Or any other shops?

Hey all. Only serious responses please. I've got a 2000 Honda Accord that is in good condition minus the transmission. I know this car inside and out and exactly what's wrong with it. The engine is great! It has 188k on the car but the transmission just reached a point where it is no longer...

Not me. I'd irrigate my lawn at night it's best for every reason you can think of.

Not a general one that I'm aware of. Depends on the area. Apparently there is a neighborhood in Maryville where if 2 guys on the same street are washing their cars and the kid down the same street is playing in the sprinkler the water pressure diminishes to a trickle. Sounds more like crappy...

We're getting a few quotes for an irrigation system and keep hearing crazy laws for an area covered by some Nazi water regime called the First Utility District of Knox County/Loudon. Apparently these fools can not only force you to put your blowout valve within 6 feet of your existing meter but...

How are you watching ABC if you have DirecTV? You sure you don't mean Dish?
