I know the lowest E0 around me tends to be at least 90 octane. But there is only one station that carries it in my general area. I usually run E15 in the F150
Just got terrible news. My neighbor Tom was pulling out of his driveway this morning and pulled out in front of a lady. He is in his 80s and was driving his1962 Corvette. It took the nose off the car, everything from the radiator forward.
Thankfully he didn't pull out farther or it probably would have killed him. He would have been T-boned. I will walk down and get some pics later.
Only pic I have of it back from when I looked at the brakes.
Geez Phil. Sorry to hear that, but glad it wasn't worse! Hopefully he had classic insurance on it.
GRF150, not trying to sound like a jackass, but sometimes I wonder if you have this thread confused with Google. How would any of us know where to purchase gas in NY?
On the fire, this statement was released on the cause and investigation:
On July 12, 2022, Stockton Police arrested Gary Carr for Reckless Burning and Reckless Endangerment. Carr called 911 on July 9 around 2:28pm to report that his generator had caught fire and spread to nearby trees. Despite efforts from first responders and firefighters on scene, this fire grew quickly, becoming the Jacob City Fire. Currently over 4,000 acres have burned. Stockton Police Investigators, as well as fire investigators with Utah State Department of Natural Resources and Bureau of Land Management, responded to investigate. The burn patterns, and other physical evidence at the scene did not match up with Carr’s initial statements. Stockton Police secured a search warrant to seize the trailer and generator. Stockton Police then interviewed witnesses, firefighters first on scene, and civilians driving by minutes later. On July 12, Stockton Police and BLM Fire Investigators interviewed Carr. He admitted that on the afternoon of July 9, he plugged in a circular saw into a recently purchased refurbished “like new” generator. The saw cord had been cut, then spliced and taped back together. During use, the saw got extremely hot, so Carr set it down on the back of the RV, which happened to be next to a sealed gas can. The investigators reported outside temperature were 103 degrees. Carr then plugged the RV into the generator and went inside. Approximately 10 minutes later, Carr heard a loud pop, followed by hissing noises. He ran outside to find the top of the generator on fire, as well as the surrounding trees. He attempted to put water on the generator fire; however, the gas from the exploded can accelerated the fire. Carr attempted to dig the fire out, and in his haste tossed burning sage and embers under the RV, where another full 5-gallon gas can was located. The spreading of burning embers, and the now heated gas can, caused the RV to also catch fire. Carr then called 911. Due to his negligent behavior, Carr was arrested and charged with Reckless Burning and Reckless Endangerment. He was booked into the Tooele County Jail without incident, and the charges will be sent to the Tooele County Attorney. Negligence does not release a party from responsibility and consequences of an incident that occurs due to his/her actions. Members of the public need to be aware of current conditions while recreating on public lands. Special precautions should be taken to prevent wildfires from occurring.
I've been tasked to try and find my Dad's old 69 Camaro. Literally nothing to go off of... no VIN, no plate, and the state has changed systems a few times.
So, now I'm trying to find a 69 Camaro for a project.
