  Every plant is poisonous. Humans are basically the only mammal that eats capsaicin, caffeine, menthol. Grapes are toxic for everything except a few things. Plants don't have the ability to pull out a gun to defend itself and so it uses poison, or irritants like thorns. This isn't limited to pants with animals. Plants are also toxic to other plants. The example that I deal with the most is black walnut. I tried growing plants and when I used the walnut leaves for mulch it would kill the plants I tried growing.

  I do agree. Unfortunately most manufacturers of diesel engines aren't stoked about environmental regulations and plenty have stopped trying all together.

  Currently their plan is to just throw more urea at the exhaust.

  I remember them having to bypass the DEF system on a lot of vehicles because they didn't make enough spare parts of the system they put in. So I'm sure they knew either face public backlash or get fined by the government. It was probably a calculation where the 2b was on the cheaper side from them. I'm sure they made enough money that they don't feel the need to fight it.

  Once again, not an endorsement. I'm sure every diesel engine manufacturer is/will/was doing the same thing.

  With statements like these it feels like you're not trying to change the situation. It feels like all you're trying to do is tear down this person, who is pretty obvious having moral issues over this thing.

  If your goal is to help homeless people you're doing a shit job.

  If you're trying to induce apathy, no notes. You're doing a bang up job.

  Lol yeah, I've worked in a dealership. I was fine with it till my foreman got fired because he took all the blame from customers instead of staff.

  Anyways when they were interviewing his replacement I started looking for a new job. I got into it with him because he wouldn't even listen to anyone talk about pay raises.

  I have Ford hybrid manuals. It won't do you much good on the cost of the tools to work on them. Best advice on hybrids is to learn how to disconnect your battery before servicing your vehicle.

  If you can afford the 3k tool then it is only 1k per year :D

  Fact based and rational media? Wikipedia is probably your closest bet.

  You can't see truth, only triangulate it.

  Your edit speaks volumes. I didn't down vote that one btw. It was fine enough. I was playing stupid to continue what I thought was joke.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do some car exhausts drip fluid?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I know, hence my comment.

  This thread is on no stupid questions. Why go out of your way to be rude/smart ass?
