So, what's this, I hear about Ford using steel pistons in their 2020+ diesels? I haven't read up on how Ford has been doing for a while and was doing a little research to brush up on their emissions system to help a cousin with his and ran across an article stating they've been using steel pistons since 2020.

I want steel pistons for the Duramax. Come on GM, get with the times. Aluminum is so last year

I stopped watching Fox a while ago, they're where during same thing 1hr show with 45 minutes just ranting how bad the other side was..
Did pick up a lot of adjectives and adverbs to use in a derogatory manner

FOX is owned by comcast which ownes Disney. Enough said there.

The newer 3.0 Duramax used in the half ton pickups uses steel pistons also. It would be nice if they carried that technology over to the bigger engines as well.

Here we go again. Another "atmospheric river" driving California crazy. Supposed to be a week of rain for us. It's all I hear about when I turn on the news.

When did this "atmospheric river" terminology become the new popular buzz word?

I liked it better when they called it the pineapple Express.

I remember that for most of my life. Then sometime a number of years ago, it all switched

I think Hawaii was tired of getting blamed for our weather problems.

....or it could be that they had to come up with a new term after that really bad Seth Rogan pot movie came out (has there ever been a good Seth Rogan movie?). Cant be sending him royalties every year.

^^^^ Yea, they probably got legal rights to the term or some stupid shit.

That monsters vs aliens movie, and the kung fu panda ones where pretty good. Probably because you don't actually get to see seth and his acting. Just voice overs. And he wasn't the main actor

The only one I can think of that has half way decent with him in it was that green hornet movie. Can't recall anything else from him worth watching

Forty year old virgin he was funny. Again like you said not much.

He is a terrible actor for sure and not that funny.

Yeah, I was gonna say the green hornet was probably his best one, but mainly because his costar played off him so well. Can’t remember that little dude name.

Well you know, that Cyclone Bomb that the Atmospheric River is bringing, could bring up to 5 feet of snow in the Mountains...

You know it's just something some one made up and convinced everyone else in that community that it was more appropriate terminology... It's Just the newest round of dorks trying to fit in.

The Kato character?
