Here is a You Tube video I recently watched "Worst Cars Made by Each Brand in 2025 Avoid Buying." https://youtu.be/ckWTakyh3eU?si=61PY6FEmSBHhWSV3 Now I totally understand the "Click Bait" approach on You Tube as the more clicks the more money these people get. What I like to do is to try to...

Good advice. If I buy used from a dealer the only way I would do that is if it is certified and I would work out some sort of deal to extend the warranty even further than the normal warranty that they offer under their certified warranty. I know of several dealerships that they will go all the...

That's awesome thank you for sharing that info.

Couldn't agree more about the price of new pickups. I saw that regular automobiles are running on a average over $50,000. an From all the reading I have done repossession rates are starting to climb and approaching 30%. Consumers take their tax refunds and use it as a down payment on a new...

Thank you for that insight.

Reflecting back on my fifty plus years of following University of Iowa sports It seems like Iowa may be entering a familiar pathway in college basketball. I remember the Todd Lickliter hire. He seemed to be doing well at Butler? Butler???? Well then, that's Butler a very school. We are Iowa and...

We don't know how these players will do in the B!G but I think they will pour their hearts out to help make Ben be as successful as possible. That's important to Iowa fans

Thanks guys those are some great thoughts. I have also heard that the Rams do offer good comfort for a pickup truck. That is important if you plan on driving long distances. My whole family lives in Iowa, but my wife's family is mainly in the South. So Utah is a significant drive to either...

I have seen the adds on the employee pricing which would be a couple of thousands of dollars in savings.

It's the off season for both basketball and football so I am taking advantage of this time to just post about a subject that I am sure many you know a lot more about than myself. So here is my pickup truck question. I've always wanted a pickup truck but the gas mileage, maintenance, insurance...

Maybe not hungry anymore. https://youtu.be/XvIqu7moW4k?si=PAczWw6slRPY5l9P The comments below the video are interesting to read. When was the last time you seen employees come out and wash and sanitize the kiosk? Studies have shown traces of E.coli on the screens. Why? Your kidding me...

I have ate at all these restaurants but the one where people pay up over $500. https://youtu.be/MVcX-n7ISbc?si=7SqZtdLLiqHapJIc Does Hooters do door dash? ;)
