I've looked at those. Looks sweet! I have 2 of the Tsunamis and am loving them! I want one of them for the Kanger 160 when I get it in.Got my STRO Mini OG. I gotta admit, this is a pretty awesome little topper.

Some people would just opt for clean underwear, I dunno. Maybe the pancreatic specialist is a gear head, and it's old oil that offends him..
Good luck tomorrow!

Hope the doc has some good news, Roxy...
He won't, but I'm required to see a doctor every 3 months until I'm 70, should I still be kicking.

I'm sure he doesn't give a shit about my truck, but it's past due, and all the rain has made this difficult. As it is, when I finished, I realized one of my ramps had started sinking, and was at a scary angle
Me too....it gets old fast, just as fast as we're getting old....
OH heck! Yah, you want to be careful, especially when the ground is soft like it is now. Had a jack collapse on me last fall, changing tires on a boat trailer. Whole damn boat shifted over and squeezed me against my camper. Collar bone hurt like hell for 4 months or so before I went in for another reason, and to have them tell me the two things I already knew. Collarbone was broken, nothing much they can do.I'm sure he doesn't give a shit about my truck, but it's past due, and all the rain has made this difficult. As it is, when I finished, I realized one of my ramps had started sinking, and was at a scary angle
A TRUCK falling on ya though. Nope. Can't let THAT happen.

Dont be going and hurting yourself. It would break Petey's heart!
As a 30 year professional mechanic I dont buy into this 3K miles or 5K miles oil change. Had an old mechanic teacher back when I was in aircraft mechanics school that had a real old Ford truck. He told us he bought that truck new and never changed the oil. Only changed the filter every 5 to 7K miles. Oil does not break down. It will get dirty which is why the filter changes but oil will never break down unless it is burnt.
When you change your oil they want you to take it in to any oil place for disposal. They will take this oil, heat it up and filter it and then resell it as brand new because they too know oil never breaks down. It will get dirty which is why you must change the filter.
I'm intrigued.. Is that the case with synthetic?
Interesting doc....I usually have oil changed in all the vehicles every 5K miles...I don't use synthetic.

Well, it was quite dirty, lol!
Don't have one nor know anyone who has one, but it sure looks pocket friendly.Has anyone tried the Kanger Nebox? It looks like a subtank RBA deck which I use to love but now they just are not enough airflow, but that 10ml juice capacity would be nice.
Why synthetic, so they can charge more.
Synthetic oil is artificial oil made mostly from petroleum products. At times it is superior they claim but at the end of the day, my engine runs just as long, just as cool, and just as economical as another engine with synthetic oil in it. I usually like Castrol, but that is preference. Most my vehicles are high mileage when I get rid of them and running fine. Just get tired of them and want something new. Had one truck, an old chevy with a 4.3 V6 and standard transmission that had over 250K miles on it. Got to the point I hated shifting so bought another truck and this old truck sat in my yard for over 6 months before I sold it. When I went to take it to the guy buying it I started it up and only a lil puff of smoke from the exhaust. Let it warm up for a min then took it on the road. That old wild hair that I could never tame over came me. I lit it up in first gear, caught second then slammed it into third and them tires was still squalling. When I go to the stop sign at the end of the road I looked and not a wisp of smoke out the exhaust. Man I hated getting rid of that truck lol
Sadly the guy I sold it to gave it to his nephew and he wrapped it around a tree six months later.
Indeed.....I never bought into the synthetic analogy.

My motorcycle is supposed to have synthetic.
My previous Dodge Ram had 241k miles when I sold it.

Huck, the guy I traded with in the classys can't leave me feedback because he's using a phone. What should he do?
I got my 1.99 brass Nemesis clones and my 4.53 Kato box mod clones from Mountain Oak Vapors.
2 of each. Work nice and I am well pleased.

I run synthetic in all my small air cooled engines. Handles the heat better than regular oil.
Assuming he's using Tapatalk? I'll sign in that way and double check, but I'm not sure it's set up. Another option is for him to sign into VU on his phone's browser.

@roxynoodle I don't see the option on other people's profiles to post to feedback on Tapatalk. Not at all. His best bet is a browser. Sorry I can't help more.

in a van down by the river?Got my STRO Mini OG. I gotta admit, this is a pretty awesome little topper.
See how it be? Getting all hooked on that Velocity style deck.
Aaaaand I just scored a free ticket to see The Who tomorrow night.
Y'acht? --- Never your mind, saw it on the other forum, Portland.
A thank you to whoever recently posted a video of those below. Much love and hugs.
Been finding a real nice mellow calm. Dug up a video with Cypress Hill & Fugees.
I remembered hear Fugees. Never really was a fan of Rap / Hip-Hop but listening now,
wow.

Mountain Oaks vapes had them for $20 so picked up 2 of them to try. Can always pif them if I dont like them.
Also picked up 2 of the Kanger 120W Kbox's for $20 each.
Thats the way I been thinking. RDA's and RTA's dont wear out. Coils can be rebuilt and last a long time. But regulated mods will be the problem after August. Most of my vaping is in the 50 - 70 watt range so I want to have at least 10 regulated mods set aside for "what if" situations. I already have a ton of tanks and drippers on hand. Wire, wicking, PG, VG, flavoring, even batteries I dont think we will have problems getting that if the FDA isnt stopped. Nicotine and regulated mods can be the problem.
Note to self, stock up on tank glass also
Was riding an 05 Harley Sportster 883 during the hurricane Katrina evacuation and that stop an go traffic in Baton Rouge was a bitch on the bike over heating. After smelling that bike cooking a while I said screw it and started riding the left berm of the interstate. Cooled it right down
Glad I didnt have synthetic in it then. Was running Harley oil and it didnt hurt the bike at all.
I've read a lot of the oil debates in one of the Dodge forums I peruse. Synthetic oils are still petroleum-based but with a completely different additive set and base distillate than conventional oils. They are less prone to breakdown and the additive lifespan tends to run longer in them, which gives longer OCI's over conventional oils. Modern engines are designed to have longer OCI's than the "3 months/3K miles" us old farts grew up with. I'm on a straight 7500 mile OCI with our '01 Chrysler (151K miles on it) and switched to synthetic on the last change. About the only thing I would stay away from is the "high mileage" oils as they usually have additives in them to swell the gaskets to stop leaking, and those additives can cause other problems.
I hit that sale recently. Picked up a Kbox 40w for $5 and a 70w for $10. They arrived today, but the 70w is seriously malfunctioning, so I sent them an email. Hoping for good news on that one. I've heard their Customer Service is excellent and they're very easy to work with.
Okay Huck, you can be the huckleberry......
We can share.
Oil to me seems to deserve the name of the other black gold. The other black gold is ******. Each has contributed a lot of good but both have also brought a lot of evil to our world.
One thing which has caused a lot of evil is adhering to the idea that our resources are somehow limited and restricted by human population. Is so difficult to see that the universe supplies all that is needed? Think about that, everything needed exists, always has, always will.
The Earth is just a smaller reflection of the universe. That means it too provides all that is needed. Ages old wisdom, "so above, so below", "to know all, know one", "know thyself to know all others".
The Myth of Scarcity has been disproved in regards to food. It is political will that lacks, keeping our world starving. That same political will addicts us on ****** and just yesterday announces it has the solution to relieving all our pain. What is it going to do, give up greed, give up a desire for power? I doubt it.
That will also addicted us to oil and other fossil fuels. I still struggle seeing how the dead provide life for the living, doesn't seem to make sense. Guess if you like necromancy so it does. Sure enough it gets solved by killing humans to offset the dead we pull from the Earth, in the cogs of the war machine.
Yes, I admit my fair share in the spoils. Hoping to soon reduce in the share at the table I take away. I see that is the only way, escape and don't consent to playing a fucking dead game.
Apologies if I've disrupted the conversation. The talk of oil just seems to kind of gnaw on me. Need thicker wool shirts I guess, hide the heart deeper.

I bought the same software a year ago for a private forum, there is the option to put a Top (button) to click next to each post, which sends the page to the top. The Top button goes next to the like or reply button (options).
I don't have those permissions. One of the admin team might be able to do that. You could make a request here:

Sounds like a good feature!
....So you're say you won't give me your password to do it myself.....OK, I'll ask um...
You wanted to be the huckleberry!
OK, I'll ask um...
I clicked on that and guess where it took me.
That is an example, I don't have mine set up like that...I just have the three buttons...they have the Google+ Facebook, et al.
I think it's a cool idea and would be used a lot, really.
There is so many variable here when it come to oil that it is mind boggling. many blame the big bad oil companies but they are not the cause of high gas pump prices. The speculators are as well as our enormous government. Oil is a commodity and its price is based on the wheeling and dealings of those playing with buying and selling it at the market. OPEC and others also play a huge roll in the price of oil because they can open the wells or slow them down to control the supply of the market. Right now there is a glut because OPEC wanted to bankrupt the shale oil producers because they was a threat to OPEC's income and they ended up fucking themselves and many more in the process. Now many companies are going bankrupt, over 750000 oil field workers world wide have been laid off.
But also you have to look at our governments roll in all of this. Oil must be refined in order to have gas, lubricants, plastic and many other things that comes from crude oil. Yet there are very few refineries in the USA and most of them are very old. No one can afford to build a new refinery because of the government cost involved from its over site is staggering. So we must deal with what can be produced from these older refineries as well as the cost to us because of it. If the government didnt require a whole bunch of bullshit for building new refineries and just stuck with the same standards as the ones currently in operation then we would have gas at $.25 a gallon. There is a huge glut of oil on the market right now because they can only refine so much at a time.
Also you have to take into consideration everyone wants a piece of the pie when producing oil. The boats carrying stuff back and forth offshore are not cheap, the helicopters flying people back and forth are not cheap, the work over rigs that are drilling new wells or refurbishing older wells are not cheap. (the workover rigs cost over 1 million per day)
The resources are there. Getting them is another thing.
