The American V8 gas pick-ups are also very loud. And many of the morons who
drive them take advantage of that fact.

MB tube has 150 grams. Do I use it all divided between the two hubs? I recall
something like 65 g per hub and the excess to partially fill up the little
caps. Is this correct?

was not reachable because it was a Skype number or something.
