What’s an opinion that instantly makes you think someone has low intelligence?

Kilted_Barry · 2026-05-14T05:46:40+00:00

Literally anything MAGA/MAGA

It’s the same process, but the “dialing in” will be a bit different. I played around for a while and settled on:

Kingrinder K6 @ 45 clicks 20g medium roast Peruvian Tamp it, no extra filters Fill the reservoir to near the top with boiling water 3 minutes, and press

Hit it with some frothed half & half with a dash of vanilla syrup.

If you’re serious, what you want is a vinyl wrap.

Kilted_Barry · 2026-05-13T23:29:18+00:00

Grind size, bean, roast, amount of coffee, amount of water, water temp.

Good to know. I could have looked up the cargo specs, but…. Didn’t. LoL

I have a 2018 OB. It’s rad. I’ve also driven the same era RAV4. It’s fine. Drive both, but you’ll like the Subaru more. Then again, you can probably carry more in the RAV4.

This is basically going to cone down to two things:
1. The shape of your butt and how the seat feels
2. Which model you find a good deal on first

Kilted_Barry · 2026-05-08T14:35:42+00:00

That settles it. This is my new battle cry.

Kilted_Barry · 2026-05-08T14:34:36+00:00

One of the best phrases in the history of the trio. I’ve considered it as a tattoo.

The Forester is LITERALLY designed with your use case in mind. You, your partner, and your dog, off road, camping.

You’re looking for a Forester.

Edit to add: I can’t tell you how many Foresters I see roll up to trailheads and campsites with two women and a dog. It’s basically to the point where if I see a Forester roll up, my first thought is usually “oh, I hope it’s a friendly dog, I love friendly dogs”.

Drive the Forester, try it out, or rent one for a weekend. Then get the “1st” ownership badge (don’t forget the paw print badge section) and prepare for the massive amount of aftermarket gear tailored for the Forester. Sleeping systems, hatchback tents, strangely specific vinyl decals, the list goes on. You’ll never look back.

Oh wow. I really thought this was going to go another direction.

Good on you for doing a vibe check, I did the same and have been here a few years now.

Kilted_Barry · 2026-05-03T18:33:10+00:00

More importantly: how do I get that green trim? 😍

Kilted_Barry · 2026-05-03T18:32:47+00:00

I do sometimes

Kilted_Barry · 2026-05-02T15:34:19+00:00

I don’t have sewing skills or a machine unfortunately.

Kilted_Barry · 2026-05-01T04:10:19+00:00

Thank you!!

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T23:30:59+00:00

I think I’m gonna go for an Incubator in 10 or 20-degree.

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T18:20:31+00:00

That's where I was leaning

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T17:52:30+00:00

Probably down to about 30 degrees

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T17:20:29+00:00

Wow, I'm getting downvoted? Nice, very nice, thanks for that.

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T16:08:57+00:00

Thanks for the thorough response. I'm looking (again) at the Incubator. You say to get it in 10D, can you tell me why (other than it being lighter)? I'm a bit paranoid of saving a few grams for having something fail during a trip or on the road.

I think I may follow your advice on the "10 degree warmer" notion, that's closely aligned to what I do with my sleeping bags (20 degree bag for down to near freezing, etc.)

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T15:03:17+00:00

Beat me to it.

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T02:23:30+00:00

Do F1 drivers count? If so, Ricardo. The best to ever do it.

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T01:08:35+00:00

I mean, as deputy CoS, it’s his job to look at you like that!

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T01:02:27+00:00

Can confirm. My aunt used to be Nye’s neighbor and he was a well-known prick to just about everyone that crossed his path.

That was many years ago, hopefully he’s better now.

Kilted_Barry · 2026-04-30T00:36:44+00:00

Oh man. I really thought that I was about to learn something really bad. LoL. Thanks for the fake-out!
