It’s a different game for sure - arguably it’s a good game (I enjoyed base Eternal), but it wasn’t what I wanted out of a Doom game.  HATE the expansions though.  

I loved 2016 - 1 in my book for sure.  When I fired up eternal, I got pissed because of how it played - I eventually got into it, same as you, and ended up enjoying the base game, but it wasn’t “doom” to me (arguably the same way that Doom3 can be said to not be “doom” either) - a good game, but didn’t feel like…

Fun thing - all the ones in Colorado are labeled so that the left lane can go straight too.  Careful with that theory :)  

Oof.  Yeah...  that happened in my class too.  

I could.  But...  I could also sell it and buy a new one, and that fits me a bit better too...  

I have every accessory, full service history from new, the original window sticker, the original tonneau cover, it still has the original top on it... it’s literally immaculate. Minus having just gotten rained on, it looks like it rolled out of the factory. Has one piece of weather stripping that is finally wearing a…

I oddly always wanted one of these.  Just a bit of truck bed, but mostly a good SUV.  

I’m so UTTERLY torn about this. I have a 99 10AE - it’s immaculate. 42k miles on it. Bought it in 2019 with 38 on, so I’ve put on 4 between the fall of 19 and the pandemic year.  I barely fit - and I mean BARELY fit.  I’d foamectomy it.  I’d want to mod it just a bit...  but it’s a pristine 10AE.  I want to sell it…

I could have SWORN I read denver in there originally...  I did the same thing with a Mk V GTI w. APR tune in the mountains here, so I was chuckling a bit - we love to fuck with N/A cars up over Trail Ridge (14k ft) or even the main passes (12k), because there’s nothing like watching a car used to 400hp realize it only…

Sweet fancy moses nice!

Note the “Denver” line. Up here, the C5 Z06 makes 300hp at the crank. The Neon was making the same or a touch more after the mods. Go up from denver and the difference gets worse...  Denver is brutal on N/A cars, and the mountains here are only worse.  

You have a point. I love my M550. Love it to death. It’s been reliable. It’s fun. It’s safe. It lets me fiddle with two grossly-unqualified-to-daily other cars (as well as others through the last few years), because it always works.

Most of the natural ones I’ve been using (because health again) tend to sink in well and not get on clothes/furniture - if you give them a couple of minutes to soak in, at least, but agreed.  Since I put it on right after the shower, it soaks in while I handle the rest of the morning prep.  

Counterpoint 2 - you should always be wearing sunscreen, even if it’s cloudy, and even if you’re inside most days.  Wife lectured me on this for YEARS.  

This is why I love them, but I’ll admit I’m the edge case living at 7k feet.  Also easier aftermarket (tunes!) vs adding forced induction or the like.  

And finding a shop that knows how to work on them is harder (they’re not hard to work on, but harder to find), and there were gaps in how much they were imported here too.  They’re not rare, but they are uncommon.  

Saab.  Really.  That’s about the perfect answer.  

Above average reliability (engine wise). They’re known for “breaking in” finally around 40,000-50,000 miles, which for a bike, is a LOT of miles outside the big touring sleds. Big, simple, fun, with quirks, not top-end performance, but a ton of style and REALLY comfortable for longer rides - and once you figure out…

Damn son that’s gorgeous.  

I have. It’s a good car with (to me) a disappointment of a motor - too high revving, not enough torque down low (which makes my variety of winding roads painful - first and second gear get old fast, we’re generally talking a top speed of around 40-45 on the straights before you’re braking again), and being an N/A V8,…
