    I forgot to go look at the XT5. Not sure I can handle the new edgy Cadillac stuff. The Denali is too big and clunky. The stupid Acura drives like a REALLY small car. Super impressive...and yes ugly.

    Looks like a bitches car though.

    If the type-S gets rid of some of the wheel gap and the black plastic nonsense all on the bottom it will look WAY better.

    All of them are ugly. BM'er would be helped the most by wheels, but this is for the W to drive.

    If Acura puts the NSX 3.5 TT into the RDX Type S I may have to buy one.

    Hopefully you read the first sentence and not the second.

    Company has been around since mid August. Seems legit.

    But $50k for a Honda. WTF?

    Also amusingly, the RDX had the most rear seat space. Looks the smallest and drives the smallest. May have had the most trunk space too.

    Been driving a 2018 X3 as a loaner since Thur night last week. Took the opportunity to compare it to the Q5 & RDX. Interior is the prettiest on the BM'er, the tech on the Audi, the fun to drive on the Acura...by a landslide. I wasn't enamored with the Q5 which I was surprised at since I loved the SQ5. The BM'er sucks off the line and generally feels the road the LEAST of the three. Stereo's are amazingly acceptable on all 3.

    So my 2013 X3 has a new turbo & wastegate, new short block, new injectors, and a shit ton of little nonsense in addition. No CPO deductible as it was covered 100% by BMW even though the car is 18k mi outside of the original warranty. Timing guide failure. Chunks of it were sucked into the oil pump. Guess I have an 18 spec engine now...but my faith in the car and the fact it is a fucking boring toaster have me wanting out of it.

    Wish Mazda had their own Lexus/Infiniti ...and made a 7 instead of only 5 and 9

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    I am not sure I want the car back. Really like the 18 loaner they gave me...but after this perhaps the W needs an RDX or something equally as boring.

    BM'er has a new motor. WTF. My warranty concerns with the german cars have me thinking NO MORE.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    It should. 50cc power, no autotune, mag case, great vibe reduction, and a steal at 20% Echo day

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    The Wen sander looks WAY better in person. Works well, table is solid. Also bought a chainsaw finally. Local shop had the 20% Echo day. 501p is on the way!

    Indeed, how is it going?

    For a wife? For a vacuum? For one in the same? For a friend?

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    There was a lot of air in mine when I put on the Wilwoods. Probably could have had less, but had access to the scanner so I used it. My truck it is not furthest to nearest either...although for the final bleed it works better that way.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    If i bleed out of order my pedal gets mushy. Last time i flushed needed the snapon computer to cycle the antilocks to blow out the air out of it. That being said if they get worsr when you bleed it means you are adding air.
