Man... a lot of people seem to love the Cayenne, I guess it must drive well for an SUV, but just does nothing for me personally.

Since Macan is like a "sporty" CUV, I wouldn't doubt for Cayenne either. But definitely better than his 2013 Q7 3.0 TDI. It's the only car in his household and his wife wants to be high up. Was originally gonna get a q3 for the wife and grab his buddies previous gen C63 AMG :sad:

It has the Passat vr6 engine :doe:

:lolol: she refuses to drive any car that isn't a CUV. Also women in cars are easy targets there, CUV basically screams "don't fuck with me" there.

:hai:
Nah. It was mostly pretty good. It was long-2 hours. Bossbro likes me, likes my work, my analytical reporting, etc. Wants me to take a more assertive and active role in certain aspects of the day to day running of the plant as it relates to inventory movement, storage, etc. Said I have one of the seats at the table of running the company for the next several years.
Ok, I guess :iono:

Winter doesn't exist anymore.

What is the tire industry going to do?

Maybe they'll come up with dedicated rain tires. Swap weekly or else. Your stopping distances will extend 10 feet. Your road holding will decrease by 0.05G. Remember you can't stop and turn on NO SEASONS.

I used to care so much about this stuff but now just use some Amazon $20 BT ear bugs and they work fine for me. May get some noise cancelling something eventually since I have a yard now and the blower/mower are quite loud.

Yeah I don't know. I like the noise isolating properties of the buds. They're also a bit more discreet for bus and subway use than big ear cans. :iono: what I'll do.

if it makes you feel any better, I paid $100 for Powerbeats 3 for 50% off from Best Buy and I had cheaper headphones that actually has better sound output :sad: Also mom just bought fake AirPods off wish for 7 bucks and they're mindblowingly better than my beats too. Only lasts for 3 hours though according to the box :sad: and had to turn both of them on which are annoying.
