This must be why I still put my 55 year old body on concrete. I maintain that doing the erl change at home is actually far less work. The whole spend an hour driving and then another two hours sitting in a rape palace lobby is quite unappealing when I can change it at home in 30 minutes for 1/4 the...

Exactly. Meanwhile the air quality in the Coachella Valley is atrocious. Dust has filled the skies for the last two days and will continue into tomorrow. Spring in the desert is straight up Grapes of Wrath dust bowl stuff. I feel like Tom Joad. So you're saying you live in Athens. https://s.yimg.co...

The custom emojis are pretty key. They are fun to use.

CaleDeRoo wrote: ↑Fri Apr 26, 2024 10:46 am Man the employee discount saved my ass on the S4. Diag, new master, new slave, new lines, and oil change for $700 all in. Non employee oil change pricing alone is $345.

I'm getting all OEM Sachs parts too.

Hendricks? That is a GREAT deal.

We bought ourselves a bit more time, but we may need to revisit the discussion of overall next steps. Server errors persist, none of us have the time or expertise to trouble shoot or keep the backend up to do date, so it's probably only a matter of time until we have some sort of catastrophic failu...

You need to talk to a few contractors. You will save money doing it all at once, but that’s a pain in the dick, especially with a kid! No website is going to accurately tell you costs for any of this. There are personally preferences you’re gonna have to factor in. For instance, tile can be $1/squa...

HOT. The fking questions people are asking the dude are a little over the top. It's a used car doods.

My bro had an '85 Cab with the Mk1 GTI motor and trans. It was a fun little picnic basket. Really solidly built, too. Dat Karmann Coachworks That's how they came from factory, with all the GTI goodies to make up for the extra weight. But critically as a young male driver, without the GTI tax for in...

Then you would have two electric cars and no gasser. Fuck that.

Just tossing shit at the wall here... no decisions have been made. Was trying to see opinions outside of "EVs SUCK DIESEL RULES" here.

Don't you have some brahs up there who have some recommendations for contractors. HVAC should run you $13-15K. What kind of "new electrical" Bathrooms 1 at a time ok. On the kitchen Brad has a SRS point. I do have one... but he is somewhat based in a more expensive location and his quotes...

Yes. Regardless of people saying you get used to the control layout, I just find it heinous looking. Yea... the singular screen is not my favorite either. I can say that the center screen and tesla UI as a counter point... is superior to any other car infotainment. It is incredibly intuitive, easy ...

For those of you that have done a major reno, can you share some guidelines? And how you went about doing it? Given the price of real estate around here and the lowerish mortgage rate, it seems cost conscious to do a remodel vs buying a nicer property. I have seen something around $450 a sq foot ou...

Yea I don't think anyone is going to read/listen to any of it... They'll see EV and proceeded to shit all over it because reasons. :iono: Camisa specifically said that 0-60 is irrelevant as is the HP # as of late... given the super high EV performance figures for those.
