Tested all the electrical appliances in the kitchen on our Megger PAT420 tester. We're slowly going through all the stuff we have, next to be done is all the computer/IT kit, that's going to be fun

It's the day for testing things, and next to be done were all of the alarms (smoke/heat and CO) plus the emergency lighting.

Replaced the battery on our Garmin Nuvi 52LM satnav unit, which resulted in much cursing and offensive language, why do these things have to be so difficult

Thanks Tim, It really is a great car. Only had about 60,000 miles on it, I'm gonna make sure its kept well and it should last me until after college. Plus it has the J series 3.5L that's really fun to let loose on a green light while keeping the car in first. I'll get some decent images tomorrow when its daylight and post them here.

My brother has a '92 Civic that now has around 340,000 on it !  He's had it for roughly 20 years now . He's replaced/rebuilt pretty much everything mechanical on it at least once and it just keeps going !!

Wow! My Cousin has his accord at 250k (I don't know what generation). I might just see how long I can get mine to go, rebuilding things as need be. Wonder if I can get to the Million mile club with it. Hondas and Toyotas just keep going and going, I still semi regularly see 90s accords and corollas rolling around.

It's got the million mile 2UZ-FE 4.7L V8. My mom has a '19 Prius Prime, but it's only at 45K. Hope to keep both for years to come. I would never drive any vehicle from the Big 3 made past 2007. Maybe with the exception of the Ford full-size trucks.
