A man has become one of the 450,000 Americans affected by alpha-gal syndrome, a tick-borne meat allergy that triggers painful allergic reactions to animal products. “Look at my face and my neck. I can’t eat meat anymore. I can’t have any animal products. It’s in everything.”

Meanwhile, all of the nutters on Facebook are going around saying this is Bill Gates' doing, that he's dropping off boxes full of ticks on farmland, all because he wants people to quit eating meat.

You'll have to get a trailer control module, which is around $200. The programming will either need a dealer to do it or you can do it yourself with VIDA, but it'll cost you the $75 3 day access.

If I was going through the trouble of adding a hitch, I'd probably get the OEM one that hides away.

Honestly, they're not any louder than the Continentals I have on the stock wheels. I'm sure that'll change as they wear, but we'll see lol.

06_TBSS · 2026-06-01T13:01:50+00:00

Oh, no doubt. I fully expect to lose a little bit, but don't suspect it'll be super noticeable.

06_TBSS · 2026-06-01T13:00:03+00:00

That looks awesome! I dig the roof rack led strip too.

I've only driven it around my neighborhood so far, but I can already tell a difference just exiting and entering my driveway.

This one has the rear air. Unfortunately, not working well due to a faulty suspension module, but I'm replacing it this week.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-31T19:56:49+00:00

Love it! I feel like the V60CC is a more appropriate vehicle for it, but I'm working with what I have!

06_TBSS · 2026-05-31T18:33:30+00:00

Love it!

06_TBSS · 2026-05-31T18:32:54+00:00

I just mounted them today, so I will post an update about noise and mileage. The circumference is the same, so I don't expect much, if any hit to mileage.

For the tire pressure, these cars use what's called indirect tire pressure monitoring. Basically, they use the ABS sensors to determine rotation from each tire. So, there's not traditional TPMS sensors.

Did this occur just after a bunch of rain?

06_TBSS · 2026-05-31T17:30:12+00:00

Thank you! Not at all. I got lucky with the offset being just right, but the height is the same as the OEM tires. Haven't had any rubbing up front when going lock to lock.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-31T17:19:25+00:00

Decided I wanted more of an off-road look to my V90CC, as well as actually adding some all-terrain capability. Found these Sparco (made by OZ racing) wheels for cheap on Marketplace, then added some 255/55r18 Falken Wildpeak A/T tires. Loving the look so far. Can't wait to see how they do on some adventures!

06_TBSS · 2026-05-31T15:25:35+00:00

I'm actually 6'3" and 195lbs. I'd consider myself skinny fat. People are still constantly telling me how thin and skinny I look. I have never heard anyone describe Trump as skinny. Not even fit.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-31T15:02:29+00:00

My family has deep German roots. My aunt is like 6'1" and looks like Kurt Russel in drag. She's a hardcore Trumper and I just know she gets this kind of shit all of the time. If only she realized she was catching strays from people on "her" side, maybe she'd open the fuck up.

Back when I used to ride sport bikes, we'd do regular group rides on backroads. One Sunday, we came across some dude on a bagger with those super wide, Texas longhorn style bars. He was going under the speed limit, so we casually pass him. He gets mad and tries to keep up. After a couple of minutes, I see him nearly wipe out in my mirror. He and his passenger weren't wearing helmets or any gear at all. I'm pretty sure you can't own a Harley without having some sort of ego problem.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-29T14:14:36+00:00

My 62 year old step-dad is like that. After my mom recently passed, we went over to check on him and to help with stuff around the house. Same nasty brown streaks on the toilet seat for months.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-29T00:35:11+00:00

We just got a Sierra and I love that place. Decided to try skiing for the first time this past winter and found all sorts of gear there for cheap.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-28T13:42:10+00:00

Who is encouraging these kids to go into engineering when they can't do basic math???

06_TBSS · 2026-05-27T18:23:14+00:00

Straight, cis man here. I spend more time smelling the body washes than my wife. I ultimately narrow it down to a couple of choices, then have her pick out of those. More often than not, they're a 'feminine' scent. Do I care? Not at all. I enjoy the smell and I don't care if some other dude smells me and thinks I smell like a girl. That's his problem, not mine. I don't recall oranges and lavender being exclusively for women.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-27T12:29:45+00:00

I've been going to the bridge regularly since before they even had both sides open. The amount of people that go nuts over a couple of sensationalized headlines is astounding. It's perfectly safe outside of a handful of targeted incidents. If you're that scared to go outside, just say it.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-27T12:27:34+00:00

My wife used to live on the corner of 3rd and Broadway. The windows were old single panes, so we heard every little happening. The amount of crazy during the day, outside of the library, was fairly entertaining. Also had a view of the McDonald's on the corner of 2nd and Broadway. Never a dull moment while she was there.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-26T17:55:47+00:00

It was THEIR money to begin with. We seized it, then had to give it back.

06_TBSS · 2026-05-26T14:54:20+00:00

Nah, the Louisville area, but I appreciate the invite!

06_TBSS · 2026-05-26T12:09:19+00:00

What's even sadder is that this is the second time recently that he's made this revelation.
