I really need to change my eyeglass lenses. These are really scratched up. I've tried an old pair of glasses with perfect lenses (just the wrong specs) and it feels great to look through clear glass again.

Lasic?

Anyone have recommendations for a comfy office chair that breathes?

Aaron???

I want the same thing out do but drafting table hight.

These are similar to the ones I had at a previous job that was tax payer funded:

ORLY, $600+ isn't really in the cards. There has to be an alternative.

PRK. Longer healing time, but less risk of complications, and less odds of needing glasses/surgery again.

Ever seen anyone make the equivalent of a powerstroke lightning?

Sort of have a wild hair to get a truck again, but don't need the truck portion. Just 4wd and power, but getting the big pig down to the ground so it'll handle would be the trick.

I'm confused....

Me too obviously. 4wd/awd, can tow, is fast, and can handle. I'm not excited with what is on the market so I thought having something built might be fun. The ridiculousness of a HD truck that is dropped sounded fun...that and diesel power boosters are sweet.

The first two are readily achievable. For the third you're either going to have to change your definition of "handles good" or you're going to have to do some work with the suspension. Especially with a diesel.

Nah, 75% of the weight up high and over the front axle makes for fun.

That just ups the challenge.

'10 Powerstroke, EGR Delete, Exhaust, Intake, Tune, 525hp, 810ftlb at the wheels... I'll bet they make lowering kits for them...

Your initial post is what got me thinking.

Yep, I just keep reminding you to make you wonder about vehicles. It amuses me to see you ponder the multitude of choices for a year and go back and forth on them. I'm still waiting for you to break down and buy a Pantera.

Well I just drove a lowered F150 and an F350. No fucking way is either of those going to work. Yikes the ML has ruined me. I realize part of it is size though. I just don't want something that fucking big. Why o why is there no SVT Explorer

Pantera may be out if the Rossion M400's keep dropping in price.

Interesting. It is amazing how fucking biased everyone is to the Aeron. Drives me nuts. As for that chair did it hold up?

If it is available here...

More than likely next year, at least that's what the budget says.

Had they built this or done the Explorer this way I'd be in. http://www.stangtv.c...te-5-0-upgrade/

That's an Adreenalin package Explorer. All they did was drop a Coyote in it. They came with the 4.6L 34 valve. Find one of those and boost it and you'll be golden.

Well it seems I found another dealership that has a shitty service department. Took the wife's new car in for the 5k mile check up and they marked that they checked the brakes and rotated the tires.

I am very picky about how I take care of my things. Day one I marked the tires and their location so I can watch the wear. I also keep notes on other things as I have always done. I got home got my notes and what did I see?!?!

The tires were not rotated, brakes not checked, and their tread depth was not even close to right!

I made a phone call and they offered to come get the car to make things right, I started laughing and said do you think I would for one second trust you to drive my car let alone do any work to it now? Needless to say corperate and I had a very long talk and I sent them copies of my logs with dates. Funny thing is this dealership promised me up front in the sales agreement that none of this would go on. Guess we will see what comes of this.

I can tell you this, I wil never trust a dealer to touch any of my vehicles unless I am right there watching them do the work under my direction!

Fun note I replaced all oils in the 4runner and what a good time that was. I was suprised how easy it was to do that job. Good for another 100k atleast.

I should have clarified, I truly meant Explorer as in sport ute. Of course any suspension goodies on it have to relate. Making me wonder though if a mini truck like that would work for me. teh boost is easy

I find it more stressful to generally bring my vehicles somewhere than to do it. Surprisingly though I think the local Volvo dealership is actually trustworthy in service anyway. They've passed all my tests so far.

[///M5 2,833]

Towing capacity 5250lbs. It would mean I couldn't move my boat.

....or it means if shit happens I am liable.

[Penguin4x4 1,761]

Yikes the ML has ruined me.

Told ya,

[///M5 2,833]

Had nothing to do with the M5, M3, etc

[///M5 2,833]

Can't afford to buy the new ML63 or the new Chili pepper turbo though which creates a problem. The new SRT8 Jeep may even hold too much value in which case I am fuxored

Yea I have a hard time believing dealerships do a good job in general, I know there are exceptions, just none I know of.

Glad you have found one.

Of course we ONLY go there for oil changes and warranty work. Oil changes are subsidized to be cheaper than anywhere else to get you in the door. Works for me. Free if it takes more than an hour as well.

[///M5 2,833]

Synthetic, nice car wash, 7 quarts and $40 ain't bad.

[///M5 2,833]

Including a stupidly expenisive filter

[nem 2,019]

This was the 5k check for the warranty. These checks are every 5k for up to 75k. Guess that is why they are free, they only do what they feel like.

[///M5 2,833]

I even do those elsewhere, her car is certified. Just need a record of the service. They cost too much for that shit.

[nem 2,019]

I am going to try and get the approval to do all this myself. Guess we will see what comes of this.

Got a georgeous young (more than 10 years my junior) black girl workin on me. Put her ass/pussy in my face tonight. Naked, not in some clothes on and shit. She shocked the hell out of me. She waited until her boyfriend ran to the store for some smokes and grabbed me. This girl is fucking fine. I mean like, these chicks in these pics in ihop are dogs compared to her... She has been telling me for months she wants to fuck, but I figured she was just half bullshitting me. Bitch is fine...

Damn wedding vows. What is a man to do?

In my weakness I ate some of that brown sugar that was thrown in my face, but damn... I need to slow down here.
