As far as the people using the anti-foulers to delay the down stream sensor's response (the locus length of the signal) they adhere to the myth that the only reason the downstream sensor is there is for testing the catalyst. The reality is that is only part of its responsibilities. The downstream sensor has more control over the engines air/fuel ratio than the upstream sensor does and that fact usually this doesn't reveal itself until something goes wrong.

Is that a Mercedes 600 facing front near the center of the picture?

And right behind is a Volvo 120 series. From the sublime to the mundane.

Happy Thanksgiving to those celebrating it and Happy Thrusday to the rest.

I celebrate 2 Thanksgivings, the one in Canada that was on October 13th, and the one today when I am in Florida. I am walking over to my neighbors (I spelled it neighbours the first time) to celebrate!

It's time for you to get a new Genesis. I hear that these days they come and pick up your car, and leave you with a loaner while they work on your car!

Way too low of miles to get rid of it, less than 14K miles. Doing that would never let me know how good their soup is. Further, I don’t want to spoil myself by having someone come and getting my car. And another thing, I can’t get a V8 again, I wouldn’t know how to act if I got 20 MPG or more.

I should have known you’d find something like that.

Hauling this old chestnut out again for Thanksgiving. My hometown's Stude dealer. This is one of two pics I have. It shows less of the building, but the kid is smiling. He looks miserable in the other one!

having had to use it a few places (mostly Boston) at this point I think I have 2 or 3 parking apps, including park mobile, on my phone.

We have plenty of quarters in the car (thanks Aldis!) so old school meters are just fine. and a whole lot quicker.

towns collect plenty of taxes. Municipal lots should be free. especially in the ones that are complaining enough people don't come downtown now. Some have pay to park but spot you an hour or 2 to prevent squatting. That I like.

No turkeys up here in Canuckistan, as our Thanksgiving was last month. Hope yours south of the 49th parallel are all going well.

What could be the last nice day for a while here as all the weather alarmists are jumping up and down about an upcoming cold snap next week with a potentially big snowfall. We shall see. As it was, I spent the day lunching and talking with friends at the Royal NS yacht squadron, la de la, in the company of some upper-crust members of local society and looking at their impressive collection of well-polished silver trophies from a century or more ago. A bit of a different world for sure.

If you only had a ‘58 Caddy you could have yanked off the front bumper and showed them more chrome than they ever saw in person.

I have license plates for the truck! Progress.

You're doing it wrong, you're supposed to trade it in before they arrive!
