1700 is ridiculous.  The last cruise we went on we paid that for both of us with the drink package.  The nicer RC ships are nice but Carnival is still really fun for us and just so you pay attention to when the boats were remodeled you be on a ship that’s just as nice.  Carnival also has pretty good food IMO.

we do that too via camping and love it...

Simple for my wife and I....as two people who are in leadership positions we enjoy going on a vacation where our goal is to not have a plan and just chill.  We were weary on the first couple of cruises we went on but ultimately we enjoy being able to chill, go to a show, hit the piano bar, eat, drink, etc. without…

Agree on the Sonnet.  I’d probably never fit in one and yet I have always loved them.

in 2050 battery tech will be so good they can retrofit a battery pack and give the Mach e a 1,000 mile range lol.

Not gonna say the Accord Hybrid is particularly exciting but it is currently the top ranked utensil on the list of utensils to get me to work every day when I purchase a new utensil early April...

If it was painted blue it would’ve been fine...

because I’m in the southeast...some days it’s 70 and some it’s 30, lol...

While I really enjoyed testing a Model Y this past weekend I couldn’t get over having to go into the touch screen to turn the wipers on.  

I had a series on tiktok when our Kia Telluride shit the bed. I did the series to kind of chronical beginning to end what happened (ultimately resulted in my wife driving a Lexus GX460).  It went fairly viral and kinda shocked me with all the angry owners coming out of the woodworks.

So at first glance yea...It’s a positive things to keep people slow in school zones.  The issue with the one here is my wife received a ticket the other day and she went through there outside of school hours...a couple days later we received a letter saying the ticket was revoked.  Just be careful to pay attention…

Your pocket is now......still full.....you from that area?

Our local police/Sheriff’s dept only purchase the Explorer or Tahoe now as the cars are almost impossible to get.

There’s a school zone camera in our county in GA and I believe they’re making a mint with only about 80-100 citizens.  The camera is on a 4 lane and very well marked that the speed changes but people still choose to ignore it.

Don’t feel bad...I’m miserable in my career and would take a sizable pay cut to get out of it.

the stupidity has not yet surpassed my laziness

Nothing.  Everyone has their own tastes...Okay maybe any big truck that’s squatted or any car that’s stanced....that’s about it and only those because I still think both are dangerous.

easy now...mine came with one and I’m just too damn lazy to change it out lol

I get that but for me (39 years old and heavy into my career) $200 is more of a “Do I want to forgoe craft beer for a couple weeks to justify it to the wife?”  It’s still money but the older I get the more I realize that how I used to view $200 I now look at $1-2k in that way.

Nothing new.  I’ve walked into dealerships and had salesmen say “How do you know so much about all our cars?!”.  Car guys gonna car guy I guess...
