I replaced the starter motor in my 22 year old Chevy Malibu (twice, actually) and the newest one is so strong it makes a little whine every time it goes. It's hard to describe but it's especially satisfying in the winter when it's -15°F and most vehicles are slow to start and this old girl fires up with zero hesitation.

Nothin' but net. It is a very nice sound.

Well said. I smoked a pack a day for 17 years and finally quit a little over a year ago. Lots of people around me quit around the same time but just ended up exchanging the habit for something else like vaping, chewing, or the new fad: nicotine pouches. It made me feel even better to be entirely nicotine free.

For anyone curious, I used nicotine gum from Costco for the first 2 months to help. It tastes like shit and is not enjoyable at all, but I don't know if I could have done it without.

Here in Minnesota we just wait until winter, walk out onto the lake and drill a hole.

Landfill and Landfill's brother are my personal favorite characters of his.

Hubris has a different meaning from any of these.

~~To do any sort of real towing or hauling? Absolutely~~

Sorry, I misunderstood. I would not want to do any real torque-heavy towing with a unibody. Things like a cattle trailer or pulling out a stuck tractor. You're likely to destroy the frame on a unibody doing these kinds of things.

At least two of those are unibodies and not really "trucks" in the classical sense. Then again, the truck in the OP is a "trail boss" which is pretty much always driven by morons that live in the middle of town and never do anything that actually requires a truck.

Dark Souls never even needed a remaster. The original could be released today and probably still be the best game of this year. The improved performance is the only thing worth noting, and even that only really matters in Blighttown, which everyone skips after their first playthrough anyway.
