I really do not mind seeing some old subjects brought to light from time to time. New blood can bring new ideas to the table. I always have the ablity to skip what does not interest me.
This being said, I do not know if the subject of oil can be further beat to ***** with anything useful or not. Tires on the other hand seem to continue to evolve at a fairly quick pace. Many subjects such as wax are pretty subjective, unless of course someone discovers a wax that jumps out of the can and applies itself! This I would like to hear about.

Thanks for the post. It should be 'common sense' ... but that can run pretty thin too.
