I've been walking approximately 4 miles a day overall, but today I'll be a little less. This high heat and humidity just kicks my ass these days. I just don't have the stamina yet to :dealwithit:
Just fist pump that fitbit in between cheeto cronching to up your high score. #neverforget
:nope:
Cheating doesn't help my rehab at all.

Got in 4 miles (well, 3.93 so far) again today. :like:

It would be a BMW replacement. She thinks it’s a waste of money.

Well ironically it would cost more than the bmw and in everyone’s eyes you’d be downgrading

BMW is quite cheap, doesn’t actually seem to have appreciated at all since purchase, been trouble free for 10k miles and is pretty good on gas. My lifetime average is around 26+ I think.

Thanks mang. I've had a pretty decent week of recovery. Made it through my first week back at work and I've been averaging over 8000 steps and 4 miles/day e'er day this week so far. :notbad:

The nesting has begun. It begins with the simple demand that the husband drive an appropriate and safe family sedan.

:doomed:

In reality the :jeep: would be the smart purchase as it wouldn’t lose anywhere near as much value as the BMW would over time.

You can’t fit a crotchfruit basket in the back seat of a 2 door Wrangler, though.

:baby:
So :doomed:

You'll save a lot of money if you just buy the :minivan: first which we all know you NEED if you plan on having more than 0.0 :crotchfruit: at some point.

Should’ve invested in a Honda Odyssey like he was going to in the first place.

:lolol: she knows I would just change cars again before any kids and has accepted that.

Also the BMW will def be cheaper to own IMO, everything on it is less and the depreciation is already well along the way. :jeep: TTL and stuff would take years to recoup.

But I told her I’ll keep the BMW for a few years if she’s cool with me getting a CTR a bit later on, so that’s where we’re at, it’s what I’d really like.

CTR drives great but man, it’s just hideous. Real shame it was one of my faves to drive

That’s awesome man, get one, while you can. It would make a great daily, it’s far more exciting than the 328i, and it can hang with a stock c5 on the track. Costs about same as both .... why not ?
