    Mini roadtrip to interview with NPS. Using veteran's preference, the job is mine if I want it. I have until January to decide. Can't say where, but is fossil related, seasonal, and pays more than I'm making now. Downside is either away from home M-F for the summer or relocate.

    Nah, mostly gravel and something called tar and chip for the bulk of the country. Tarmac is used around cities but is more common in the southeast of the country, but mostly concrete in the urban areas their too. Concrete holds up slightly better than tarmac due to the temperature extremes...

    I’ll trade your roads for ours, but that’s a helluva bill. I remember enjoying driving in the UK quite a bit. Omaha has unpaved, unmaintained roads in.the.city! If it makes you feel better the tax/title/ registration when I bought it was 3600$. My Liberty was 35$ for everything By comparison.

    Similar. Our road tax and fees are set amounts, 45$total in Nebraska. The rest is sales tax, which you pay until the payments are done on the vehicle. The sales tax decreases a bit based on the age of the vehicle.

    CATACLEAN product. Does it work to clean your cats? Or will it kill them.

    Cat Cleaners are a scam. The claimed chemistry doesn't check out. As others have stated, the issue is in the engine fuel system...which may have damaged the cats. Just as likely to get the same result from Techron or Sea Foam. A
