It’s been exceedingly stressful The deck is 2 years old and was a selling point of the house. It looked great when we moved in. Now boards are actually rotting and many have warped.

2024 plac thread !

I will say, the ND does kind of stomp the BRZ86 in that way. Everyone acts like they're basically the same, but the gap between the miata and BRZ is about the same as the gap between the BRZ and the rest of it's competitors. I'm praying the NE stays the same weight as the ND, has 1-2" more inch...

It's actually $307/month + $5700 down. And that's for 10k/miles a year. Hyundai Ioniq5 & 6 are better deals and better cars.

Agreed. A Coxster or Corvette is the used play here unless you're a 'collector'. Also, after driving a Guilia for a week, I was really just loving the 86 last night.

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 goin...

Got a nail in a tire this weekend. Luckily it was an easy plug. Been getting software updates at a rate of about 1/week now. They're slowly getting everyone caught up. There have been some leaks about new stuff coming to 7.0 that will hopefully happen in the next month or two. Looks like their firs...

The teal Trailhunter is great. That would be my pick. I am so confused by their lineup though. So much overlap between 4Runner, Land Cruiser, and GX. Land Cruiser and 4Runner especially. Same exact size, same power train, all the same tech... I'm guessing the Land Cruiser will be slightly more expen...
