new Honda CR-V break in

That is what I did, but I still see his postings when other people reply
to him.
It cuts the number down, however, as nobody can respond to all of his
postings. Most people have this thing called a life.

"Guy", you are correct, there is something wrong with a person like him
who spends this much time online with the primary purpose of abusing
people through his very high number of postings.

I am guessing that he does not talk to people like that face-to-face, as
he would have been taken out long ago, or he would have at least
received a beating of sufficient ferocity to change his attitude.

Get ready for a failed attempt at a witty and abusive response to this
from Jim Beam. I have no idea how many responses he sent into my
killfile to never be seen, but I have to admit, I hope that they were
numerous and even longer than this posting.

doubtless, others would respond agreeing. especially if someone had the
temerity to point out that our blogger was in fact at fault, because we
should all stand about and hug and endorse stupidity, not actually try
to learn something.

yup, just like that.

my current amusement is people trying to sell cars on craigslist, cheap,
"no title". one guy i spoke with didn't have title because he'd gotten
a loan on the vehicle and had handed over title as security. so
legally, it wasn't his to sell, it was the loan company's!!!

i'm sure he found some dumbass willing to give him money. let's wait
and see what kind of victim bullshit /that/ will produce on consumerist.

Thanks Pat. It's reassuring.
You know the sad thing is we're just talking about a car. Can you
imagine if we were talking about religion or politics ?

Wow. Do you feel better when you talk like this?

Follow the manual and the minder.

They say no restrictions on driving from day one, and you'll probably
go about a normal oil change distance, about 6k miles depending on
your driving habits, before the minder says hello.

That's what Honda wants to honor the warranty, seems good to me.

Engineering, materials, manufacturing are all really, really different
now than thirty years ago, I haven't heard anyone accusing the minder
of being too conservative about oil changes, maybe a little the other
way in fact, recommending changes a little sooner than really needed.
Plus, you might get paranoid when it says 15% left and change it then,
when you really can run it to zero, usually another 1,000 miles. Not
like the car grinds to a halt at that point!

"just a car", and not the $25,000 you just paid for it!

tell us guy - is there a financial threshold for stupidity? is it ok to
be willfully ignorant for stuff below $25,001, but not above it?

how about if someone else is willfully ignorant with your $25k for you?
what if someone put sugar in your gas tank? that could cost about the
same to fix as willful ignorance of the owners manual. or is there a
difference between someone else doing something dumb and you doing
something dumb?

I think you need to re-think this one.
A 'slurry' of metal particles is going to lubricate better than clean
oil?? LOL!
I don't think you understand how a hydrodynamic bearing works, nor do
you appreciate how vanishingly thin the oil film is under load.
