    This is good, but Id take some info on tire “tread rating”; Snow tires seem to have lower ratings and I’m assuming they mean on clean surfaces not snow?

    In actual written human genealogies, they put the world at 6-7000 years old. No such thing as “pre history” or any time period before then. Its not a guess with fake science with an agenda put behind it, but actual written down names. With the average age in the 70s, 6-7000 years is still very old compared to us.
