  2. Re: Car wont start - Mechanic help or recommendation

    Weird as heck, at least it's running now. Probably a good call to switch out sensors, be sure to go OEM for those.

    Yankee Hill 1/13/2024

    This was a great day of snow!

    Re: Yankee Hill - Saturday January 13

    I'll be bundled right up and have full gear in the back of the truck. I always pack like I'm planning to spend the night for nasty days like this, sleeping bags etc. I'm a glutton for punishment...
