Since it's a slow day on this thread, I have a quick question.

Sometimes when I'm behind a vehicle at a drive through, I smell what I think is alcohol. My question is, that if a vehicle is burning e-85, does the exhaust smell like alcohol?

Happy National Bacon Day to all the Canadians out there.

Americians can suck it up until December 30th.

Yes a car burning E85 has a distinctive odour. Sort of like burning a can of sterno

'Alcohol classes' - excellent way of teaching youngsters how to drink responsibly....

Was going to work on my basement, but decided to take a day off & Work on it tomorrow. Most of the mudding & taping is done. Now working on the window area. Was debating to put the frame around the window, but decided not to make it more modern look to it. Still need to put wood inside, but it’ll be stained & match the wood pillar. Atm debating to put wood crown or painted crown around the basement or not. FYI I’m planning to paint it pastel forest green-ish (not too dark)
