Absolutely flying through the jobs!
20.7.2024 18:41Absolutely flying through the jobs!This week I have driven two Volvo rentals. A high-spec XC60 PHEV and the smaller XC40 in a base-level trim. The XC60 was a pleasant surprise. Nice drive, good tech, luxurious interior.
The XC40 isn’t small, but it drives like a small car. It wasn’t as smooth on the highway, the powertrain was weak, and the base trim really shows… although it does have a trash can in the center console that I really like as a feature.
Would recommend Volvo… but only with the PHEV powertrain and a premium trim.

Well, I finally got fed up with it and on internet advice tried replacing the original water heater anode rod with a powered anode rod. A very DIY-friendly job, and it has completely fixed the problem. Should have done this way sooner!

I’m constructing an 8x8 gravel pad, and have cut down two very old Yucca plants to make space. They have extensive strong roots. I don’t really want to dig a 5ft cubed hole to get them all out. Can I just douse them in weed killer and put the pad on top? I can’t imagine a yucca breaking through 6 inches of tightly packed gravel. Please tell me if that’s a bad idea :)

It’s not like I can get it in the Mustang, so I need delivery, and if I’m going to the hassle of a delivery it makes sense as well get plenty… but damn! Wood is heckin’ expensive. I should have picked a cheaper hobby.
