5k miles per year?

Are you Amish?

You forget I live in SOUTHERN MN, NORTHERN IA. Its sooooo small down here. Hell, I live in a town with 12k population. It might be a little more miles then that, but maybe only like 2k more. Edited by ChILL

5 years and 5k isn't DRIVING IT INTO THE GROUND, lol.

What you need is a really high mileage, depreciated, newer car that you can drive nearly nowhere and sell without a big loss. I'd seriously focus more on finding that than what manufacturer. In 25k miles NOTHING should break on any of them...although that won't be the case.

I think its time to upgrade the security of the forum. We have yet another Spam bot

I'll translate that. Admins and mods should spend more time checking the board.

Indeed, I'll keep my phone volume on high at night, so when I get a report notification I can wake up and address it biggrin.png

Ended up with some more Oakley's. Two pair for less than 1/2 the cost of one Maui Jim's.

And they last about 1/10th as long. Personally I'd return them. Realize we have different tastes but Oakley lenses are horseshit

How does one address it, I can't see a way to stop posting priveleges, before the forum upgrade I could but not anymore. Figure that is only for ubermods now, not me.

My last pair lasted 11 years. Current pair is at 5 years. $225 total investment.

Interesting. I have a pair of Oakleys I bought when I still lived in SoCal. I have lived in NC for 1 month shy of 14 years now, so we'll say they are 15-16 years old. I wear them every day. Lenses are like brand new. My only issue is the socks rot every few years. But for $15 it is a cheap fix.

Just kidding, I only flag them as spammers and move their posts or topics. Apparently flagging them as spammers removes their posting privileges.

I really like oakleys polarized, especially on the lake. Maui Jim's are really nice, I just don't like any of the styles. More people on the lake use MJ than any other brand by far

It's a crazy big difference how good the lenses are on the Maui Jims.

They are also soooooooo cheep to fix. So cheep. Like stupid cheep.

Small town gives more reason to drive, to get the hell out of Iowa.  My family has always driven though, 20-30k miles for a year is pretty normal.

Drop them once and they are jacked. Personally I can't stand a single scratch on my lenses. Oakley's scratch so easily its absurd. I went through 3 pairs in less than a year, bought MJ's and they lasted until they flew off my head at 75mph on the boat. Doh.gif

It helps to know that. Flagging used to do nothing.

That is ROFL funny. Oakley lenses are fucking horseshit from an optical perspective compared to MJ's. Swap between them on the lake and you'll shit and think oh, god what kind of bullshit crap are the Oak's. They are no better than wallyworld Polaroid glasses for seeing into the water...then you strap on the MJ's and see the whole fucking underwater world.
