    Previous one was a Blackvue, and it just decided to stop accepting ANY Micro SD cards, so I got a Thinkware...

    My cousin has a 2017 RAV4 XLE AWD that she bought new after I recommended she buy a Toyota for her next car; She drives a lot for both work and family, and the RAV has about 91K miles on it! :eek:

    I bought her this license plate frame FOR CHRISTMAS, but due to COVID-19 I have not seen her since August 2020; There was a lot of way-past-due gift exchanges going on when she came yesterday...

    I tried to install it, but three different screwdrivers and my neighbor’s power drill could not loosen the rusty screws, and I ended up cutting myself...

    The amount of blood produced by this little cut made it look a lot worse than it was!

    And yes, it was on my middle finger...

    I could not remember the last time I got a tetanus shot...

    **Well, technically I could; The last time I remember actually getting a tetanus shot was in 2002 right after we moved to Northern Virginia. The house my parents bought had a treehouse in the backyard, and I sat on a rusty nail that was sticking up on the floor of said treehouse; My dad ended up driving me to the doctor at a nearby military base if I remember correctly, and I got my shot.**

    It is entirely possible I'd had one since then, but I don't remember; So my dad and I drove to the urgent care place in Warminster (Tower Health) where I got what was likely my first tetanus shot in at least a decade.

    Also, did you read the original post about the RAV4 a few posts above (on this page)? 2017 model, it has over 91K miles, and my cousin has done absolutely nothing to it outside of routine maintenance!

    Our 2005 needed one non-routine thing..wipers. But that was her fault.

    I've had to replace wipers in my truck before; One time in 2018 I didn't realize they'd gotten as worn out as they were, and I was doing about 45 MPH. One of the wiper blades snapped clean off, but it didn't actually break and I was able to new wipers cheap thanks to my employee discount at the dealership where I was working at the time!

    I saw this very unique Jack Russell Terrier at the very same Cars and Coffee where I took Porter's picture in front of the Rolls-Royce (that was at Peddler's Village); I couldn't introduce Porter because the other dog was leash aggressive with other dogs...

    I am way overdo for a tetanus shot, my last one was around 1991 or 1992 when my fingers got chopped up in a propeller of a giant RC Airplane.

    Oh this needed all new arms and mounting stubs as well. Froze to the windshield and my wife didn't bother to get out and pick them up. Not the vehicle's fault one bit

    New patch! I have a middle school buddy who still lives back in Washington where we went to school; He is a truck driver and picked this up for me during a run to New Mexico...

    This gas station consistently has prices that are roughly a dollar more per gallon than gas stations less than a mile away; Even at the start of the pandemic when prices at some places dropped below $2, it was charging somewhere in the range of $2.80 to $3.00 per gallon!

    The Wawa where I took the first picture was charging either $3.05 or $3.09 per gallon for regular; This one just a few miles away (maybe 6 to 8 miles) is charging $3.19!
