Just got a quote to replace all the original stuff at the house. $20k. It's a dual system: 3 ton main system, with a natural gas furnace, plus a 2-ton heat pump with the air handler wedged in the ceiling in an attic space on the second floor. My father-in-law works in commercial HVAC. Think I'm goi...

thats a nice spec. I'm conflicted in my choice of DCT over the manual.

angry big brain yells at cloud. and pays his taxes.

It's fair if you feel the Dark Horse is overpriced, but the MSRP spread that you are shopping is extreme. So justifying a car's existence on your list of contenders just because it is cheap doesn't really make sense when you are also looking at cars that cost $100,000 more. It makes even less sense...

Accidentally made a coworker look absolutely stupid. Whoops. Got an email from boss with a few people on copy: “Hey Brandon, OWP team is swamped, can you help out and work these two actions for them?” Looked at the actions, super simple, adding funding to existing lines of an incrementally funded c...

:lolol: :megusta: Competence is an increasingly rare thing these days. :( Sadly so. And even more prevalent in my .gov field of employment.

the death of my 1994 r-22 trane compressor and 2008 interior core was a stuck expansion valve. The labor to replace that was nearing 50% of a new more effecient unit 410 install. It just made more sense, I also bought the swamp palace knowing the smaller bedroom unit was on borrowed time. But its co...

I see all sides of this. I TOLD Brad about this shit. I was real mad dropping 7400 on 410 when I found out a week later it's phased out. I also did t have any options as the consumer/residential units simply arent being produced yet. In the next 2 years we will see all the new and flammable gas sys...

Alright well Johnny gonna be real fucking mad when he finds out r-410a is also being phased out and he has to pay 300 a lb for refrigerant in 8 years on a system top up. I'd take that 2 year gamble on a working system. Hell... I AM. my r-22 ac is real fuckin old...like 1987. Im hoping to not put in...

What's what I am saying ... the used market is still too hot. This will not maintain going forward. Most of the country won't be buying 100k behemoths new anymore that the .gov money dried up. As far as I can tell you are :wrong: about that. .gov money has long dried up and people are dick swinging...

thats a nice rig. Don't sell yourself short. Try the escalade.

its by design :lolol: I had someone riding with me who was visibly beginning to have a panic attack as we sat there and swayed. When I explained that the bridge needed to flex and, if it was too rigid it would fall into the river, it didn't seem to do any good to alleviate the fears. I think deep d...

It's not uncommon to be stuck on the Mississippi river bridge here in BR. You'll just be shaking up and down the whole time sitting there. FUCCKKKKK that :shock: Its a great time to inspect those large steel expansion plate joints... and the low railing keeping you from the large river below. :neek:

I'm bougie, and want a fancy ride. Depreciation, on some level, is "pay to play" I am greatly allured by the depreciation of bmws. If you avoid the high end model pitfalls and can do the basic DIY, getting a $80-90k car at 50%+ depreciation is very :megusta: Erins wagoon is paid for and l...

I'm at 6.5 years of GMC Canyon ownership. I'll probably keep my next DD as long, so depreciation isn't a concern. It will be what it will be. Lady :melon: and I are looking at another house in the next year or so, something with a shop, and garage/carport parking for DD's. She has a 2015 X3, a real...

I have a low level phobia of bridges ( :ludacris: , I know) and I totally get your retroactive terror. :lolol: I mean, it never prevents me from crossing them, I just don't like it. lol It's not uncommon to be stuck on the Mississippi river bridge here in BR.

Interesting commentary on the bridge here. Pretty wild stuff, did they find anyone that was lost in the water? Is it actually true that the US hasn’t built any major bridges in decades or is that just :fax: stuff? " :fax: " This beauty was built in 2010: https://www.tylin.com/sites/defaul...
