I fell asleep in 3rd Q of bears game, and woke up just after half of Detroit game, so I missed Carrie, dangit. 2nd half of this one has been interesting.
Not correct. An electric unit uses the same style rotary compressor, just with an electric drive motor mounted to it.
Bearing and seal wear might be reduced by not having the side load of a belt, but I'd bet a purpose built electric unit would use smaller bearings to save cost.
The first sentence, correct. However, Da Packers have never been accused of having deflated balls. Surely you have them confused with some east coast expansion team?

It's necessary in diesels to keep them from gelling up in winter, with gasoline it's just an emissions mandate. So I burn more fuel to pollute less? "Does Not Compute".
This is nothing new, just a new player in the same game. When the emissions laws started to tighten, Cummins, Caterpillar, Detroit Diesel, and Mack (maybe some minor players as well) got busted doing the same exact thing. It cost them dearly, even forced Cat out of the on highway engine market...

Congrats to John Hunter Nemechek on his first truck win, here's to a long career in the sport.
JGR is Superman in the Xfininty series. Really, it matters none who's driving, those Toyotas are stout.
See above for a probable synopsis of tomorrow, but there are...
Home.
After that, depends if it's football season, racing season, or go visit the rellies in SoCal season (aka Winter with a capital W).
If I have time, I'd love to head south out of Shreveport and run the length of the Great River Road past home to Itasca State Park up in Minnesota, then...
Packin my bags today. Tomorrow I leave for Chicago. It seems like forever yet. Work just sloooooows down when you're counting the minutes till vacation.
As a near Minnesotan (geographically speaking) I agree. MN is kinda a one man show offensively until they can prove otherwise. But when AP is on his game, that's plenty. We shall see...if I don't fall asleep before it starts...
Matters none to me, it will be Mobil1 and Wix in mine after the break in oil drains out. That combo has been good to me.
Probably whatever PepBoys house favorite is will be what they recommend.
