    ContiExtremeContacts have always had a good reputation. I know they recently changed them again, and I believe they're an improvement over the old DWS style. I had the pre-DWS on the STi and loved them, but friends ran the newer DWS and didn't like them as much compared to the older design.

    I ended up figuring out on the mower that the reverse blade stop switch was acting up. Fiddled with that a bit and it ran beautiful. I just need to do an annual service and it will be ready for the season. Huge relief for me since it's one less thing to worry about having to coordinate. I still haven't even gotten my mower out this year. I'd love to get another tractor but my yard is so dusty I hated the one that I got with the house.

    Are you looking for a summer tire? Or an all season?
    I'm running the new Bridgestone potenza RE980AS
    High performance all season on my daily. They were cheap, handle great, and might be the best tire I've ever driven in wet weather.

    Anybody here try woolwax vs fluid film? About to order a 5 gallon bucket but didn't know if anybody has tried it. Based on what I've read it looks pretty good and should be even better than fluid film

    Morning all.
    We got absolutely hammered with rain Friday night, 3.2 inches according to my rain gauge!! Lots of flooding Saturday AM.

    And then Saturday AM I went to rent my dump trailer and they were out of the 12 footers that I'd reserved, so they gave me a 16 footer instead :eek:
    Ended up with somewhat heavier of a load than I'd intended, between the extra compost I was able to fit and the fact that it was absolutely soaking wet. Truck handled it like a champ, but she felt kind of turtle-y pulling away from stop lights. On the other hand, once it was rolling it had no problem maintaining speed; she took the long uphill grade before the Gray Toll Plaza at 70mph in 4th. :notsure:

    And then since we had the trailer for the day, we went and got a couple yards of mulch too.

    Looks mostly the same as FF. Both are made from lanolin.

    I want to buy a gallon of WoolWax to try for this winter, I hope their claims of it being harder to wash off are true!

    Let us know what it's like. I'm curious to see if there is a difference. I was trying to find comparisons online but didn't come up with any yet.

    How is this stuff applied? Is it for frame too?
    How many vehicles can five gallons get done, and last but not least, $

    Thanks
