Christmas present from my step-mother-in-law: I like it, and they're local to me. Been meaning to try their wares since they opened up.

BraveUlysses posted:just look at the tire rack's rankings, its going to be better than what we can tell you. One problem I have with their rating system is that it seems to cause people to rate "relative to the tire's class." Like one tire will be a Summer Tire and another will be an Extreme Performance Summer Tire. The first will average 8.5 and the second will be 7.5, even though it has a much more aggressive wear rating. If the tires are from the same brand, I honestly assume that the extreme tire is better even if the ratings don't show that.

So I'm supposed to be in Indianapolis picking up that Focus I posted way back but the GM of the dealership is being a jerk about the friends and family price.

Dealing with a tax lawyer in Mexico...is interesting. Me - "We're doing X - what is our liability with the government" Him - "We're not doing X" Me - *gives examples of us doing X* Him - "We have no exposure in Y" Me - "That's good - what about X" Him - "We have no exposure in Y" Me - "X and Y are two different things and are handled completely different everywhere else in the world" Him - "We have no exposure in Y" Me - "I think we need to include our US counsel in this discussion" Rhyno - ask the GM what it takes to be a friend or family  (who's coming up with these new emotes?)

Father in law picked up a free Chinese 110cc 4 wheeler for my oldest for Christmas, not running. So far fixed; Both rear wheels loose on the axle. Tightened with the impact and put the cotter pins back in. Front ball joint backed out all the way, tightened that and found a cotter pin for that. Choke was broken, had a hell of a time getting it to idle. Entire carb was $13 on Amazon Prime (!) and put that in, works great just need to adjust the idle once the motor gets hot. New battery, and trickle charger for the battery (needed this anyways). Helmet from the local powersports dealer, and some gloves. Need to do; Rear brakes are a hydraulic setup, need to completely flush and look at the master as the fluid doesn't look healthy at all and they are not adjusted properly Front light doesnt work. Would like to swap to LED. Seat completely broken ordering on tonight once I verify the part It's purple, would like to sand the fairings down and paint it like a satin grey. It runs pretty good I think if I was brave enough it'd top out at 35 or so.

It's just for my DD Scion xB so I'm not autocrossing or anything, but I don't want all seasons either, and those are the only summer tires besides Ecstas in 215/55R16, all about the same price. Probably won't make much difference between the two honestly. Rhyno posted:My fiance's cousin works there. It seems since we're not yet married he doesn't want to cut a deal on the car.

Cool. Just make sure they are actually Florida cars first, lots of people drive down their garbage and then try to sell them off here. Do all the VIN checks yadda yadda.

Rhyno posted:Fly and Driving for a daily beater is well worth the time, when you consider the lack of corrosion in older cars. A plane ticket is what... $150-250, plus another $100 in gas to drive back. There's some extra steps with registering an out of state car, but even after that, you've invested a couple days and less than $500 in a car that is not going to loving fight you with every fastener and bolt that you have to get to for regular maintenance. Take my '05 Escalade that I picked up last year from Southern South Carolina -- it is absolutely like new underneath. All of the inspection marks using wax or paint pens are still on the chassis. The brake lines are spotless. Around here, you cannot find a truck from that era that hasn't had the brake lines replaced... and this one is perfect. The benefits far outweigh the time and minimal expense, even for a daily beater.

Check flights to the St.Pete/Clearwater airport, iirc there are flights out of Indianapolis super cheap, like $90 one way. Also I should be able to get you a good deal on a hotel room on Treasure Island.

We just came back from Christmas with my girlfriend's family in Germany, and we flew with SWISS back from Stuttgart over Zürich to Copenhagen. I have never felt so pampered in economy class before. Such a pleasant crew, a very nice complimentary cheese sandwich and our choice of drinks (soda, juice, even red wine). And the chocolate, oh god the chocolate. Probably the best milk chocolate I've ever had, with an absolutely perfect snap and gorgeous taste. Just outstanding. In loving economy class, man.
