I see HFCS products here.

I think the biggest point is that syrups like Aunt Jemima syrup are NOT marketed as being maple syrup. I don't know how anyone could possibly think that they are.

TIL: When it snows in the south, cars randomly catch fire

You're in VA and consider Raleigh NC the deep south?

So is ABS really effective?

Nor will it break the laws of physics. Bald tires and snow... smart move.

2015 Mustang Leaked

I think it's gorgeous! Very impressed. One thing I will never understand is why people are do desperate to say what they think every single new car looks like... looks like this.. looks like that.. holy shit who cares? It's almost like a competition for some people.

YouTube is borderline unusable - Time Warner Cable Sucks

I think youtube just sucks. Seems like the site can't handle the capacity and it just gets worse every day. I've got that fios quantum nonsense and it's still so super slow. My parents have Comcast, and it sucks on their connection too. My sister up north has optimum and guess what? Youtube...

2013 Ford Fusion

I've only done two tanks at 87 - the very first one, and one a few weeks ago just to see. The one I did a few weeks ago I got the same 22MPG. It could just be my imagination but it does feel a tad peppier with 93, so I'll stick with it, but yeah 87 is perfectly acceptable for the car.

2013 Ford Fusion

Oh and I saw a brief discussion about MPG. I'm at 3200 miles on my 2.0 Ecoboost FWD. I've been getting right around 22MPG so far. My drive is mostly city though. Oh and I use 93 octane if anyone is wondering.

Hmm. I checked all four of the handles and the plastic behind all four are loose. Odd that I only hear the rattling from the front passenger side...

I don't have an iphone but I haven't had any issues with my BT. Have you tried repairing it? Have you tried pairing another phone?

2013 Ford Fusion

The picture has been deleted.. was it of the door handle on the inside? Because I've had an awful rattling from the passenger side. I can wiggle the piece of plastic behind the handle around but I can't get it to snap into anything.

Getting my headlamps replaced next weekend.. joy... Sure beats having the 1.6l though. I'm not going to be happy if the 2.0 ends up having problems too.

Any solution for an "always on" 12 volt DC power point?

Thanks for all the good info everyone - very helpful. I think, however, I found a product that will help. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007NM7EUM/ It appears that the USB ports are not always on. I feel kind of dumb for not thinking to look for something like this before, but I'm glad I...
