    Anyone running the RE-71RS? They’re the successor to the tires I’m running now that need to be replaced this summer. Anything else I should be looking at? Pic for example.

    Came home today and noticed some odd spots on the trunk of the SloLara I haven’t seen before. Kid took it through a touch less wash earlier today. Hit it with some instant detailer no change. Surface feels smooth. Any ideas guys?

    📊 Poll Civic Type R vs Golf R?

    Background: Wife has been wanting something sporty and manual but still somewhat practical and decent on fuel. Recently our Honda sales guy called to see if we were ready for something else and mentioned a customer just backed out of a Civic Type R that had just arrived and asked if we were...

    Need a Winter Beater. Thoughts on WRX?

    Decided to reassign the current winter slut as a summer vehicle. So started shopping for another yesterday. Drove past a Subaru dealer and they had a new WRX out front. Premium 6MT. Sat in it before the skies opened up, didn’t drive it, but liked the seat, steering wheel, pedal placement and...

    🏡 Better Homes Florida Bros Step In

    So we’re looking to buy or build a home in Florida in the next year or two. I’ve got family and friends in Marco, Naples, Orlando, Daytona, Tampa, and Clearwater and so am somewhat familiar with those areas. Got a buddy in Bradenton too but haven’t been out to see him yet. What do you all...

    Extending Lincoln CPO Warranty?

    So the Continental (aka Comfy Winter Slut) is living up to its name and is getting driven 7 days a week by multiple people. We’ve been averaging 5k miles a month which puts us blowing through the 100k CPO bumper to bumper warranty real quick. This will only get worse as we have family in Florida...

    🔧 BUILD TL’s Origin Story of the Comfy Winter Slut

    Alrighty so a quick background on the events that transpired up to the point where I entered the New Balance wearing, dinner-before-five crowd: Back up quite a few years and I’m in an AWD Fusion Ti. Threw a hitch on it and it was a great utility car: Threw some snows on it and it was an...

    DIY Wheel/Tire Racks

    So I’m at the point where I’ll have to store (5) sets of wheels/tires year round and I’m wanting to get some floor space back from my heated/cooled workshop attached to the garage. Only one set will need to be stored indoors, the rest can go out to the garage. Looking to build one from 2x’s...

    🔧 BUILD Mazda 2? Seriously.

    So picked up a manual trans Mazda 2 from a retired nurse as a car for the kid to take to school. It sat here as the car isn’t going down there anytime soon so I started to drive it. Seriously. I like it enough I took advantage of the market and off loaded my regular car and am still rocking...

    Belgian Waffle Maker?

    We've been eating a bunch of Eggo frozen waffles lately so I think it's time to get a Belgian waffle machine. Looks like a lot of crap out there. What do you have, how do you like it, or what are you eyeing? Cost not a factor, looking for buy it once and keep it forever kind of quality.

    Anyone know or have a newer Frontier? Been looking for a truck as a 4th vehicle for a bit. These seem like simple, inexpensive, and reliable trucks. What's good/bad?

    Newer Generations Not Wrenching?

    Last week in the office seemed like a bad week for everyone's cars. About half of us had some sort of car issue. No one is doing the work themselves (me included, but I'm still under warranty). What I'm noticing is that people, especially the younger ones, just don't know or care to know how...

    Headphones for Flying?

    If you fly a lot, and rock some decent headphones, let me know what you have and what you like or dislike about them. If what you have sucks and you're eyeing something good, shout it out too. IDGAF what they look like, so I was thinking over-ear and noise cancelling would be good. I do like to...

    Anyone have electrical issues near Medieval Times?

    This is strange but I have to know. Every time I drive past Medieval Times on 90 my tpms warning goes off. I have ignored it so many times that last night I got a flat and ignored the warning and drove on until I could feel the flat. Anyone else experience this??

    Are you good with math? If so get in here...

    Coming off working 45 hours in 3 days, brain is fried and I need to help my kid with homework. Tried a few different ways, even using some multiplication which is probably a no-no at this point. Post up what you come up with. Use the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to write a subtraction problem...
