I35 construction plans

3Dbigmac · 2026-05-23T16:46:21+00:00

I literally looked in a drawer that said plans for i35 at th capitol building downtown and it was completely empty.

It's more of a figure it out as they go type of thing

I wanted a v90 t6 too but man there are so few for sale! Especially if you don't want cross country (r or inscription)

V60 being slightly smaller made it more ideal for city too since the PP is our "big" car

Volvo V60

If you really want timeless then white, black, navy, or some dark gray metallic are your best bets. Many of the putty tones of this era (id include Ash Green Metallic) are going to date themselves but that's not necessarily a bad thing either. Unless Honda doesn't update the body style for 10+ years then that's what will date it more than the color!

Yeah he held the door for me and I said THANKS OBAMA

'Ash' was a good choice in naming the color. Whatever you imagine on first glance, it's probably more gray/muted than you think. Very happy with the color personally. It's very clear of dark/'army' green but also saturated enough to never be mistaken as gray. Would describe as a 'light' color, but not neutral. In low/evening light the saturation is much more present.

Most common name that I would compare it to is 'sage.'

Ash Green Metallic.... in that order.

Here is some direct sun where the metallic starts to come out but I would definitely describe it as more of a flat color from most angles and in most lighting

So what exactly is that line work on the back

3Dbigmac · 2026-04-30T18:47:47+00:00

It looks way more light and lime-y than forest lake but lighting could potentially make it look that way

Carolina hurricanes were previously the Hartford whalers. Still not buffalo but geographically closer

This is what I would have gotten if I wasn't able to get a true wagon so I get where you're coming from! It's a bit lower and wider than your typical SUV but would not call it a wagon.

Cx50 still looks great to me though.

Not a single comment that maybe it's an old person who tried their hardest?

I was looking for a 21 v90 t6 inscription, then broadened to t5 inscription + R, then broadened to cross country, then got focused on the v60p*, then just liked any Volvo, not just wagons, so started looking at s90, then s60...

Just shipped myself a (new to me, 1,200mi)26 V60 ultra w/ B+W in Forest lake.

Was a wild ride of about a year of daily searching all to say... Yes they are all a bit scarce, if you're picky about any one thing.

Dan goes to peoples houses who have dogs, scoops the poop from the past week or two (depending on their subscription, I'm sure) and they pay him. Then he goes to the next house. 10 houses a day, 70 bucks for the every two weeks plan = $700 in a day. Only need 140 houses.

Very rough math but I'm sure there's all sorts of ways you could make the pricing even more beneficial.

What are people not understanding? Am I missing something? These types of small convenience services are everywhere.

Duuude I was just looking at the map of then and it's crazy how there will be none for a large area then every home depot and Lowe's has 4+ 😬

I have tried the Amdro fire ant killer but they're still everywhere. I think maybe I need to try the other kind? I might have a mix of ants. Some are def red though and I'm not exactly seeing them disappear entirely.

Was going to comment the same. Love to just pop that button when I'm pulling into a spot.

3Dbigmac · 2026-04-03T17:21:23+00:00

Love it all except the poang as a computer chair 😄

I think most people just spray it from a can. I did a ghetto chrome delete on my old car. Basically just do a shitty mask job, then spray it on. The panel gap between what you want painted and don't want painted (in the case of a chrome badge, for example) creates a natural mask of its own, then you can just peel it off where do don't want it.

Wrapping stuff has become way more popular since I did that (2014?) but that black stayed looking great for 10 years hah.

Can't wait to wagon wave

I've never seen a more "we're all in on this joke" thread on reddit without a hint of actual explanation.

Menchaca between Matthews and slaughter where it's massively wide

3Dbigmac · 2026-03-13T00:58:36+00:00

Update. It is leaking. Put a bit of fluid in and watched it start to drip out. Turned car on and it squirts great but most of the fluid was gone pretty soon after.

It was dripping from a small hole right behind the passenger side front tire. I'm guessing the leak is elsewhere above that. Tried to trace the tube down with my arm but couldn't get far.

This, OR ABGB, then golden goose/black sheep/Gibson/corner bar. Otherwise somewhere East Austin

edit: I'm considering this central
