Reply to Is it even worth washing the salt off my car if it’s still on the road? It’s caked with salt… by PivotalPosture
Don't pay big bucks to do it, but yes - a good soap-and-rinse off will help get corrosives off your car, plus you get to see a nice clean car. It can wear you down, looking at a crusty, salty car every day.

You are both wrong. They believe that humans are created in the image of God and that it is wrong to make “graven images” so they don’t agree with photos or drawings of people, and their dolls have blank faces.

Yes. If you want your car to last wash it and wash it at a place that’s cleans the undercarriage that’s the most important thing.

Yeah, the Amish suffer from the “founder effect” All of them are descended from about 200 German immigrants. So there is an opportunity for recessive genes to come through.

Find a car wash near you that uses the Everwash app.
I pay $20 a month and can wash my car every single day if I want. I usually get it 2-3 times a week. No issues with rust on my current, or previous vehicles.

Oh, I don't remember how long, but I remember I'd just do it for a few minutes whenever I had idle time. Do that for a few weeks and you'll be fine. Just do it casually until you can do it without thinking about it.

It boils down to...how much money you have and how long you want that car to last.

Yes. There is a 5 year "look back rule." If you google that, you will either find the information you are looking for or you will know specifically which questions to ask.

I never read the book before I took the permit test. I started reading it as I was waiting for it and passed it. /shrug

People aren't dumping on that at all, they're not saying it's wrong to enjoy seeing the Amish, they're making the observation that they tend to have a terrible reputation for the mistreatment of their animals. You can appreciate the photo and still understand they're a community with plenty of flaws.

I'm not entirely sure about the drivers permit test, but I did the motorcycle permit test a few years back. In the back of the handbook, there were like 50 multiple choice practice questions. When i took the actual test, it turned out to be the exact same questions.

Do 20 min a day for a couple weeks up to the test and you’ll be fine. The questions on the test were like exact copies to the app when I took it

Is there any crossover between Amish horses and the rich people horse farms in southern Chester County? (Doe Run on to Newark) Maybe they get Amish to shoe their horses?

There is a horse shed at the Walmart in Parkesburg. I see lots of Amish shopping there. Teenagers, presumably in rumspringa, dressed in Amish clothing, but buying video games. And other ages too. I feel a little disillusioned when I see Doritos and cookies in their carts, I thought they made everything from scratch. But I am definitely fascinated with them and admire many things about them. The Amish population in the US is growing very fast. They have an average of 6-8 children and 85% stay Amish. So they have started new settlements in some rural areas in the US and even in South America. I hope they can keep their culture and not lose it due to fast growth.
