Toyota Safety Sense and Honda Sensing We have a 2019 Honda CRV with Honda Sensing and Blind spot monitor. We really like both of these features (Honda Sensing includes Automatic Breaking) but have the lane keeping turned off. Bob's Mom has a Toyota Rav4 with Toyota Safety Sense and she loves...

34" SONY CRT HD tv set My first HDTV was the 34" SONY with picture tube. Great picture and black blacks, but it weighted 200 pounds. It was less expensive that the Plasmas of the time and had 1080i picture. It also had one HDMI input and a couple of composites. I finally upgraded to a 50"...

White finish is not available I still have all white appliances. This KA does not come in white. Another KA model with the self cleaning filter does come in white but is about $1300. I do like the features of this model, for a stainless steel model the price can't be beat. It has the ball...

Nice reader The reader works nicely on my PC. I remember these issues as many were left by my Great Aunt when my Dad bought their house in Lakeport California, in 1958. I always loved reading the Buton Hillis column on the last page.

ATT prepaid I have ATT prepaid. Lowest package. $30 per month with Auto Pay. It is billed to a credit card. Includes 1 GB of data, which is enough for me. Uses you WiFi for data when you are at home. I switched from TMobile because the ATT network is better outside of the city. ATT has...

Update I received my new GE switch today, after 40 days. In the mean time, the Cooktop fixed itself. The indicator light was on continuously, it should be on only when a burner is on. That is why I ordered a new switch figuring it was sending a false signal to the light. Now it only lights...

Shipping from Manufacturer The latest from Sears is that the part will be shipped from the Manufacturer, GE. No indication that this is happening yet. Maybe Sears is not paying GE so no shipping from them. I kind of want to wait and see if I actually get the part since some of you are still...

Does anyone else order from Sears Parts Direct? I understand that all of the walk in Sears Parts Direct have closed. Only the online version is available. I ordered a new switch for my GE cooktop, Sears was the only website that showed in stock for the item. That was on Aug. 20. Then they...

sodium silicate Protective properties against corrosion of washing machines. Makes sense, and one wonders why it is not included in modern detergents. Maybe the washer manufacturers want their machines to rust out faster. Thanks Launderess.

Maybe you guys Know Years ago many detergents listed an ingredient that "protects washer parts". What was this ingredient and why is it no longer included, who knows? Thanks

Sears and Roebuck LXI Pix of my Sears LXI CD player probably 1987. So 32 years old, still working still hooked up. Never had a problem with this unit. I also have a SONY BluRay player that will play CD's. Yes that is a Radio Shack dual cassette player above the LXI, still works, I still...

No CD players in cars There are very few new cars with CD players. Volkswagen puts them in the glove compartment. Ram truck offers them as an option remote from the radio system. Some Lexus' have them. I know most people stream now, no purchase of music at all, just renting it, which is...

Mine never worked on slow speed I had two GE Filter Flos one a 1961 and a 1991. Both ended up one speed units after the slow speed failed. Perhaps due to me changing the speed during operation. Some say that will do it. My question is how hard was it to make a two speed motor? Then no need...

I had no idea I did not know that these older units could be converted to a modern refrigerant. Very nicely done project and really great pictures and explanations of what you did. This Frigidaire may actually be pretty efficient, thick doors and walls.

Lazy and practical Our municipal water is mostly from wells and has some hardness. My only whites are my towels and socks. At this point I do not sort and just dump in what I have into my Speed Queen 2017 model, hot wash with one cold rinse. I use Liquid Tide Original Scent HE with bleach...

Could it be Could this be a fake website? Cannot find it anywhere in Tide PG site.

Emerson TV Our similar vintage Emerson TV had that phono jack on the back too. I bought a VM changer from Montgomery Ward and connected it to the TV to play LP's. Our record player at the time a Stromberg-Carlson, played only 78's.

1961 4 door Chevrolet Corvair with Powerglide My family had a 1952 Chevrolet DeLuxe sedan with manual transmission, 1950 Plymouth wagon with manual, and 1961 Chevrolet Impala with 283 V8 and Powerglide. At school we had the 1961 Corvair. I wanted to drive it on the freeway and floor it to use...
