Do you even understand what you're asking? The lettuce was IMPORTED from Mexico via Taylor Farms. These berries may have as well.

The distributors hide their supply chain and claim it to be "industry secrets" to keep us from knowing where we get our food.

This shit is insane.

there's enough freed nipples out there for me not to care.

Ha. Just switch to an electronic ignition, improved coil, and spark and it's as peppy and efficient as fuel injection.

Buying old means not purchasing net new products. It's not fully sustainable, but it maintains the status quo and doesn't contribute to more waste. Keeping something old alive and in good working condition is a lower carbon footprint than buying a new EV or Hybrid.

I have 1974 car, a 1994 4x4 van for snow, and a 1975 motorcycle for summer. All things I do my own work on.

My 1975 was tuned for distance. When I drove it from Key Largo to Seattle, it did 35mpg average over the 3500 miles I drove. That car was lost in an accident, sadly.

25 miles per gallon. 30 minutes would be 12.5 miles on half a gallon.

My current one does about 25-30 mpg. It weighs 1950 pounds. So, yes. It can comfortably do half an hour on one gallon or so and have fuel left to get me to a refill.

They have flat 4 two liter VW engines. Extremely efficient if tuned correctly. One top of that, there is a direct 1 to 1 drop-in electric kit for these. When my current engine dies, I have an electric kit I'll put into it to make it an 914E.
