Replying to: kernick (Dec 02, 2008 6:38 am) Weyerhaeuser has been reforesting Brazil for many years. I just installed 1300 feet of Lyptus Wood from Brazil. It grows to commercial size in 15 years. It is harder than hard rock maple or Brazilian Cherry. It was used as cutting boards to start with. Now you can get it for furniture, cabinets and flooring. Beautiful stuff and eco friendly. http://www.lyptus.com/

Replying to: gagrice (Dec 02, 2008 8:05 am) The fabric supposedly isn't very durable but the trim in the X5 should be fine. |

Replying to: gagrice (Dec 01, 2008 7:58 pm) So I can let my lawn grow and cancel out a couple of SUVs. Great idea. "...The Mango trees...all died..." That is so typical of the earth worshipers. They understand nothing about nature. I wouldn't put it past them to plant palm trees in Alaska so the polar bears have some shade. |

Replying to: steve_ (Dec 02, 2008 8:43 am) link title Are you one of those steel manicured finger nail martial artists? ..."Ah well, anyone got any auto related GW stuff? "... Well, got another "SMOG ONLY" "random" test due on a 13 year old SUV. Any odds it will NOT pass with the SAME flying colors as the prior posted 15 year old SUV ?(same make/model different year) I run both on 15,000 miles OCI's. The miles I have down this with these two vehicles exceeds 240,000 miles. |
