Fat boy like me would need more than 4" of lift. Kim Jung Un would look like an athlete next to me.

Happy Monday all. I would not even try to crawl under the Sienna. I pay Red Carpet Car Wash to do all my oil changes.

Back when I owned a Honda Accord (sold it in 1997, so it's been a while), I built a pair of ramps like that, but the rise was more like 8". A couple of 2-bys and a scroll saw, you can make whatever size you want.

I made some wooden ramps out of 2/8's for my Boss 302. I still use them 7 years later on my Shelby.

It's safe. You'll be fine. Shooter was a parts guy. He got fired. Victims were targeted supervisors. Shooter shot who he wanted to shoot, then shot himself. It wasn't random.

Sure did see that. That's where we bought our F-150. I have been there numerous times & may have talked to some of those people, although I don't really "know" any of them. It's a good dealership.

My good friend Declan is a service adviser there. I was pretty worried for a couple hours until we got word he was ok. I've been in that service/parts room at least 20 times.
