And the village bicycle 3 series

we get to pick up the wagoon today. Zero supplementals on a decent front end hit is very very suspicious.... Just a front skin and paint. I hope they got it all aligned decently because i saw about 1/8" shift around some bolts behind grill.

I got the new plate to fix the ebrake lines rubbing drive shaft shield and making noise for the last 4 years. it will be a new bicycle.

Dude, mine had that same problem. The sound was utterly unbearable though, you're dealt with that shit for four years? Make sure it's low on gas for that job as you have to lower the tank.

$40K seems rather dece when you consider Tacomas are like $65K now and go boom boom.

I'd want the tow package, but otherwise it's spec.

4 door Badlands with the 2.7 v6 hardtop. Car was a 2022 with 40k miles. 33" BFGs. Had mid size screen.

I shop used cars cause poor. I also can't stomach the previous years insane markup and availability.

Previously drove a nice 2 door soft top with the 4cyl. More base trim.

The 2022 v6 - Wind noise is nearly as bad in hard vs soft top. Surprised me. Very similar character as my JKU. The gaskets were absolutely shit worn and dry rotted in only 2 years. Very concerning. Top has 2 layers of sound deadening installed by PO.

The stereo was absolute hollow shit. The screen interface was nice but speakers were trash.

Lot of neat detailed and things well described in other reviews. The ergo was ok. The back seats are just like a jeep.

It was slightly more refined driving than a stock Rubicon with a bit more pep. The engine on cold start has a lot of vibration in cab. I don't like that shit. My 2019 f150 is better.

Suspension was fairly soft but it had good turning radius as you'd expected. I few it like a less capable jeep with better refinement. I still love the looks. I'll drop links. I love the green, yellow and blues.

I’m kind of shocked to hear about the hard top. The soft top I drove was atrocious, way worse than a jeep it had no insulation from outside noise and wind buffeting started at 40mph.

Absolute trash if that happens in the HT also. I find a jeep with a HT livable

[CaleDeRoo]

I hope Cale buys that thing though, keep the legend going. Although he's all on the poverty spec screen situation.

Don't forget halogens and I'm using heated seats in the morning already.

@Dan looks like Snap is relocating to Ballantyne? Too bad I'm relocating too.

Yeah where'd you see that? I have no clue when the office will be open, but sounds like it'll be a pretty massive improvement over the current dump on Westinghouse.

Where are you relocating?!

In Edison Square across from SkyBrook.

You'll be right next to the bowl and all the other shit so your lunch breaks and hangs after work should be sweet.

Definitely gonna have to try it out once they go to off season pricing. I've got a hookup at the 500 club now but Statesville is a drive. Great food and drinks there though.

Surprising Dan with lunch beers on Friday would be fun too

Yeah I didn’t find the noise in my HT JKU to be bad at all.

That was the idea. It should cut 25mins off my drive home.

The aviation dept put on a lunch today. $500 to the winner of the paper airplane contest and dessert trucks outside.

Every pit crew member made a pass at the blonde one afterwards. I don't blame them either.
