We always like to be over prepared in the water department in case the heat sneaks up on us unexpectedly. Water is cheap
yeah at these outdoor summer events it's always important to keep hydrated. Few things are more embarrassing than passing out from dehydration in front of several hundred people at a public gathering... ask me how I know haha. Several of us ended up taking a case of water each home... so next time don't feel bad about helping yourself to more water. At least we don't charge you $3-5 a bottle like some events/concessions/tourist traps...

Well, just dropped $110 on Amsoil (8 quarts of 0w-20 since I sill have 2), and 2 oil filters for the Yaris (still have one for the FR-S). The FR-S is due for a change, the Yaris is good for a while, after 5k miles, I'll replace the WIX oil filter with the Amsoil one, and run the oil longer.

I always use the Signature Series. I've been using Amsoil since 2008???? And yes, I did one-year intervals back then (I do it based on mileage now since I drive so much).

I'm shocked at the 12k-15k interval... Are we talking engine oil?
