I was just talking to my daughter's boyfriends mom and she said she will be talking with the dealer tomorrow. They wanted to see receipts from the last four oil changes, she has three and is looking for the fourth and it sounds like they may cover the engine. Fingers crossed.

You may be on to something with the above.

The key words above are "Need not be fingerprinted again", that does not say shall not, and does not say may not. Thus, if they want it to be done again they can, they just don't by law HAVE to do it again.

I believe it is at the discretion of the department, they can actually require it every time. I know one time when I went in they said it was less than a year since my last one so there was no issue.

Thanks for the heads up!

No clue, but I don't think someone that is 20 is a juvenile.

That is another issue. The form should not even mention guns on it. It should just be a letter from the police saying they are running a background check and ask you the questions except the one about owning a gun.

The law does not explicitly address this, but so much stuff is up to discretion that you are probably better off not doing it. The entire reference thing is a joke anyway. Who gives a name of someone that will not give them a good reference. But it is even worse than that. Here is a copy of one that I just filled out this week. Notice Question two - how would you in many cases know the answer? Notice Question Three - again in most cases you would never know, and isn't that their job to research via databases like NICS. Notice Question four - again you would likely not know. Notice Question Five - Who cares what your opinion is? They don't know you and why should your opinion have any bearing unless they run a background check on you. The whole thing is STUPID!

You do know these forms say "Employer" NOT "primary employer"? So if you don't run your own business, go across the street and get your neighbor to pay you $25 to mow their lawn or plow their driveway - NOW you can put down that you are self employed (Legally) and put your own name and address down as employer. Problem solved.

This is the People's Republic of New Jermany and it is filled with sheeple who are clueless and for the most part have never touched a gun or even seen one up close. The only thing that will motivate these sheep is when some crazy or a terrorist kills scores of people in a movie theater or supermarket here close to home. Then and only then will they have any interest in guns.

UnitedContinental charges me too much to get to the store in TX

CJ no but OB two to three times a month

That would work, but you are kind of far away. Probably would have to ship it to you.

Currently it's down to $1.80 per pound.

Yea, I got tired of inserting the 9 in the bigger ones. If I really worked at it I bet I could have gotten 65 pounds in that box!

Just curious as to why you have decided to open carry rather than keep it hidden?

Smokin .50 has this stuff correct, and almost always does. Read and reread what he has written.

It really wasn't that bloated. I did make a major effort to stuff 9mm brass into all the larger ones to maximize weight for the volume

The top was the only part that budged at all. Smashing it a bunch of times got it almost flat.

The Post Office is getting picky about flat rate boxes. I shipped a bunch of empty casing to get credit on buying new ammo and they gave me grief that the flat rate box was not "flat". I stuffed it pretty well, like I always do, and have never had an issue. Managed to get 59# of brass in a large flat rate box. At first they told me they could not take it because it was not flat. I always thought flat rate just meant it was a "flat" rate not that the box must be perfectly flat. So, I looked at the woman with puppy eyes and said I've always done this before. She got her supervisor who said no way. So they handed me back the box. I picked it up about 18" and pounded up and down on the counter a half dozen times, till I got it to be flat. I said will you take it now, with a big smile. They reluctantly agreed. They joked there must not be anything breakable in there. I was about to ask if I could get insurance for the fragile content, but decided not to push my luck.

I've been dumping on his presidential FB page each time a post goes up. Here is my reply to his claim that a San Bernadino attack can happen anywhere in the US and that the president lives in a fantasy land: But Governor Chris Christie, you live in just about the same fantasy land. You say this happened in California and it can happen in any town - well if that is the case why do you leave NJ residents as defenseless sheep? How about you instruct you AG to redefine "Justifiable Need" so that the sheep can actually get carry permits so that we can defend ourselves from terrorist. When a terrorist attack takes place in NJ the blood will be on your hands until you take action to fix our laws!

Weak gun laws are not the problem, bad government and bad courts are the problem. How about we enforce the laws we have? Man busted with weapons twice in 10 days released on $1K bailBy Larry Celona and Tina Moore December 7, 2015 | 1:49am Officers recovered this gun off Junior Regis. A Brooklyn gangbanger who was busted twice in 10 days on charges of carrying illegal, loaded guns was set loose on a measly $1,000 bail Sunday. Prosecutors had asked that Junior Regis, 23, a member of the Brooklyn’s Most Wanted gang with a lengthy rap sheet, be either remanded to jail or slapped with a $500,000 bail after he was nabbed the second time for gun possession. But Brooklyn Civil Court Judge Genine Edwards, who has been filling in at Criminal Court to help clear a case backlog, gave Regis the paltry bail, which he easily posted. “A bail of $1,000 is outrageous and inexplicable. This defendant belongs in jail while his cases are pending. Hopefully, he doesn’t shoot someone or get shot while awaiting trial,” a law-enforcement source fumed. “This guy is either going to kill someone or get killed.” A police source warned that Regis is a “menace to society,” adding, “Everyone’s worried about the gun laws. What we need are new judges.” Edwards did not respond to requests for comment. Regis has nine prior arrests, including on charges of robbery and grand larceny. He was busted Nov. 25 allegedly with a loaded 9mm Ruger. At his arraignment on that charge, prosecutors sought $100,000 bail, but he was released on $20,000 bond. Regis was then caught Saturday with a loaded .22-caliber H&R revolver by the NYPD’s Strategic Response Group’s Anti-Crime Unit, authorities said.

Well I guess we will see what happens when he contacts the dealer. I'll let you guys know when I get some feedback. The info that there have been a history of problems should help him out.

No clue if synthetic with used, and I am likely only hearing part of the story leading up to this. I know what you mean with the oil and antifreeze. I had a Volvo years ago that would have steam coming out the tailpipe first thing in the morning and loosing antifreeze with no external leaks. I told Volvo I bet it was a cracked head, they told me I was crazy. After months of messing with it with them changing the water pump and a few other things they got the OK to pull the thing apart. They found the number 3 cylinder was extra clean "steam cleaned :)", and that yes it had a manufacturing problem that was a hairline crack in the head.

Yea, this has an oil light too. It goes on when you start the car as it should but then goes out. Guess it does not really work as it should. I did not crawl under it to check the oil plug, but the car sat in my driveway for three days a week or so ago and there was no oil on my driveway.
