Another vote for the tires/cap/grill killing mileage.

It's not BS, it's physics.

The mileage may be a non-issue but the other items you listed definitely are. I hope you get some satisfaction from the dealership.

Like some others have said, your knives truly are beautiful works of art.

Have you ever dabbled in push-daggers?

I'm looking for a good one right now, but my needs are utilitarian for the most part.

it's the total of the three things together that's causing the issue - not any one thing alone.

Physics and math.

Please...... get off the couch cause I can't continue doing 16hr days. People say there isn't any work...... that's BS. Any Certified Welding Inspectors out there looking for work let me know.

I know, off topic but had to vent.....LOL

Correction: there isn't any work for people with useless liberal arts undergraduate degrees.
