I wasn’t a sq5 fan. That thing is slow compared to anything with a b58. It also had pretty bad steering(disconnected) and looks like a jelly belly. Tried to like it but no. They are also made in Mexico which … eh Yeah the B58 is a bit of a hero motor. Seems pretty reliable too. Anyone know about re...

I'm not really an SUV guy but these are all nice cars and solid used buys as they depreciate pretty significantly. M340i might depreciate even more though and be the best driving thing of the bunch. The weird thing is... the M340i... is keeping the value better than a 540i M sport ... which is why ...

SQ5 is cool. Those prices seem dece. About as much for a new mid trim Rav4 or CRV.

House was listed on Wednesday. Signed an offer today. Wild. We had 5 offers for it. Ignored a few cash offers for someone who needed a mortgage. So there's that. Do you know your buyers financial situation ? That can be a gamble unless they already have the funds secured. Fully pre approved at a mu...

The old one in Philly. Finally offloading it.

Was the business class ticket at least under 5 figs? My spouse is a bit of an expert at working points and travel deals. I had accumulated over 450K Alaska miles. Fiji Air is an Alaska partner. The fly and return dates that you can use miles is limited to about 6 total days in a given month. By sel...

LNG Its a plant that is always on call but essentially never operates. I think its been used twice in the last 3 years. Downside is its all hands on deck when its online which could be at any time of the day or night. How much of a pay bump? Not sure. Apparently they can only bump base salary up to...

Liquefaction and storage, vaporization as needed. I'd consider it. Since the idiots wont allow more NG pipelines over the appalachian mountains, the east coast in general will always be in NG deficit. Therefore, unless that changes, as you said the plant won't run much. On the other side of that......

My rental mustang vert windows did not seal. Was a Le to return it for the 330e I had back in October. I’ve had about three of the previous gen, one was such a POS I returned it for the Mercedes I murdered the buck with in Utah. All three the rear windows didn’t seal, and I’m not talking a little w...

A good friend of mine just got promoted at work. He wants me to take his position as plant manager. Job upgrade incoming?!? What kind of plant?

New house is around the corner from a high end shop with nothing but LOOK, Pinarello, Time, and Cinelli bikes. Lots of wallet draining eye candy and tons of great gear. Can’t wait to buy some shit from them. They’ve got one of these in the window right now. Pina has them on fire sale. It’s tempting...

Thanks dude! $350-400 seems to be the going rate for these bikes out here. Are disc brakes and 1/2x shifting things I could upgrade myself, or would they be more hassle/cost than they’re worth to swap on? Better to keep looking until I find something in this range that has them? I’m in no rush to b...

I don’t really know what something like this ‘should’ cost but it looks quite well maintained and will be robust AF. It’s missing some modern conveniences like disc brakes, 1/2x shifting but for commuting around, it’s not critical at all. If you ride in the wet, disc brakes do perform better. I dig...

I still have it. Last bike I shipped was about $100, might be a bit more now due to Covid price increases. You might be better off getting a local bike for a gym beater. Size may work, I’m about that tall as well. I have a shorter inseam though. 7.5 miles each way isn’t too far but you’re looking a...

Johnny, you still sitting on this? Is it too small for me? Just under 6’2” with ~35” inseam, 230-250lbs.. would mostly be used for commuting my 7.5 miles to/from gym. I think you shipped a bike to Desert before, what do shipping options and costs look like? Guys who bike, is 7.5 miles a reasonable ...

I'm casually looking for stuff. #2 gets removed from her cocoon in 2 weeks and I think shits gonna hit the fan with only one vehicle. Front runners are wagons of some sort, but I can't afford shit because of this dumb house. A Volvo V60 would be high on the list. I dunno. I like the CUV experience ...

I’ve driven your wrang, and thought it handled just fine. 20 years of tech and jeep really made strides! I think you still don’t quite get it since you’re such a two door sports car kinda guy, but it’ll click when you’re cruising in that buzz one day. It’s funny about functionality, because for you...

Anyone doing car related shit here or are we all breeding and or attempting to breed ?! :rage: I'm casually looking for stuff. #2 gets removed from her cocoon in 2 weeks and I think shits gonna hit the fan with only one vehicle.

Well the ID buzz is probs a year away … might be a nice derp mobile around town. But you guys road trip… and evs are not for road trips :dat: Maybe in 2-3 years it'll be different. I do like it. I like the ID Buzz. I find it confusing though. Minivans are epic road trip vehicles. But an electric ro...

Doing it right.
I usually owe a little bit. This year I expect to take it up the ass because I sold a lot of stocks to buy the house.

My second tax deduction should be applicable for 2024 tho.
