    Mid day naps are like one of my favorite pleasures as I got older. Happened today by accident. Got home from the courthouse and laid on my bed, both girls smothered me and I was like "I can't move them, so nap it is"
    I had to pull summer courses to get it into 4 years. It's pretty wild to think back on. I'm sure that question will linger for you, but just know it's just like any other corporate America job. Sit in front of a computer all day and have a bunch of mindless bullshit busy work.

    I missed that. Was getting a new phone this afternoon so wasn't able to keep up lol

    Ford actually did it... They did the meme response...

    Coyotes from 2018 to 2020 can have excessive oil consumption which is pretty well documented. Ford's fix... Longer dipstick. Amazing. Okay so they also put out a PCM update which holds the throttle open a little during deceleration so there's less engine vacuum... But still a longer dipstick just so it looks like there's less consumption it's pretty funny.

    My coworker at my old job was dealing with this and getting the runaround from the local dealers. Then there were the crappy 3-valve Tritons that constantly sludged up and needed to be replaced. Ford had made some great powertrains through the years, but they’ve managed to have a lot high profile stinkers lately.

    Makes sense

    Think we got almost 90k miles before she totaled it but, oil consumption was nearly non-existent on the 5.0

    Was a 2016 so I wonder what the changes were outside the obvious like the transmission

    Probably something to do with trying to meet CAFE regulations I’d guess

    Everything but the driveshaft. B03A - 410
    One of my buds at my first job in computer programming had one of these in the early 80s. He drove it for years. I don't recall him ever having trouble with it.

    Official fuel economy for the 1978 B-210 was 36 mpg city and 48 mpg highway, or 50 mpg if you bought the 5-speed gearbox.

    I can't wait to go back and run it again with the lockers, sliders, and some armor from the LX moved to the LC. I've taken situations having both fronts locked to let me steer into situations without wheel spin.

    That just finishes the main quest there are a lot of awesome side quests and crazy places to explore. Technically once you finish the main quest the game would have been over before the DLC were released. But you already had broken steel cuz you bought the game of the Year edition so now it raised the XP cap a bunch and gave you more quests and let you keep playing

    Ahh good shit

    Yea I was like damn...main quest is short but it was a good story so far

    Had deviated from my side quests (had done a lot) so now I'll go back to doing more side quests before doing Death from Above (Broken Steel you're referring to)

    Yeah I think I ran into a vault I couldn't access, and when I met with the Brotherhood I saw the map showing all the vault locations for those I haven't even found.

    I had helped Fawkes, and had fully expected for all these 'beings' to escape the cells but not a damn soul came out so I was relieved; there were times I was running out of ammo mainly cause I had visited my house at Megaton and dumped a bunch of stuff (for weight reasons).
