Turn Signals Optional: Gberg’s M3

I mean it’s cool but kinda excessive. I really don’t get that trim level. It’s has the m motor … but it’s detuned … m badging all over the place … it’s over 100k msrp … but it’s not an XM5 A horrendous fam car imo from a cost of ownership perspective when you have a great B58 powered X5 for like 65...

:plac: finds v2.0: Moar gold on the crangslist

I rented a Nissan Armada with 39K miles on it in Hawaii. "Tahoe Class Vehicle." It was.......a pile. Rear suspension sag big time, resulting in near tuck with 4 passengers and luggage. Handled vaguely even accounting for its barge status. Thirsty. Ugly. Some mediocre design components like...

Yep, no keyless with start stop no P2. @ Max, my friend Eric in SF got the 2008 w/Pano and no P2. You can get a 2007 Mazda 3 Grand Touring........Bi Xenon. But a 2007 MBZ E Class with Bi-Xenon is unobtanium. In retrospect it may be best not to buy em as they may not be available and total the car d...

I can't ever get more than 30K out of any tires, which is because I drive like an asshole? Now I hear about all this dry rot, and I'm like :thisisfine: I mean same and I don't even put many miles on. All Terrains seem to be the exception though, 50K on the :jeep: and they're going pretty strong. A ...

42k mi out of an original set of tires? I feel like that's absolutely unheard of these days. It seems manufacturers get sent jank versions of tires that last half as long as a set ordered from Tire Rack etc would.

QFT. I won’t throw numbers out since I can’t remember them off the top of my head, but I’ve seen some meta analysis’s of studies that have looked at that, and the drop in metabolism with age is minimal and absolutely overstated and used as a scapegoat by people whose lifestyles simply aren’t what t...

Your day sounds 5/7, :sawce: Nicely done.

I spent my Mother's Day making funeral arrangements because my mom passed this morning. What's kinda funny is I was born on a Mother's Day so she welcomed me into the world on MD and I saw her out of it on MD.
Whoa! My condolences Ron!

I watched it in the movies when it came out. I thought it was gonna be too cheesy, but actually liked this sequel. Pretty badass.

The point is to get huge bro. I have never seen a baby in my gym. My other gym had a small “care” prison for the shits. And I saw kids there on occasion. But babies … nah.
