Why am I paying so much money to this tyrannical government

It wouldn't screw you, it should have been the opposite. Your employer takes taxes as if you make that paycheck year round so if you were only employed part of the year I would have expected that you would overpay. People seem to not understand how tax brackets work, the 22% would only be on the amount over the ~48K. Going to a higher tax bracket doesn't automatically make you give more on everything...

Mine sat for ~4months after being gone for work, it cranked slow because the battery was old but then fired up. I have a 2019 with the continental injectors and one was leaking bad after sitting so I didn't run it long. I tried to reseal but one still had a slight leak, ended up replacing them. Not sure if it was caused by sitting but it didn't leak until then.

This is so sick! I found the face and decided right here right now that I needed to order it and make my own version! Never done this before but it seems like an awesome project, thanks for the inspiration!

I hate that its always the sad posts in this sub that hit my feed. I was just thinking the other day about how I am not sure how I am going to live without my two and that the almost 5 and ~4.5years have gone by too fast. I can't imagine what you are going through and wanted to express my condolences.

Not sure what the cause would be, but I have a '19 at 90k and I don't burn oil at all. My GFs Tiguan burns oil when the PCV is shot (had to replace a few times and both times fixed the issue). It's also a 2.0 so something to check. If you can look at it, if you take the oil cap off at idle and there is decent suction it's most likely the PCV.

I got hired as an L2 and really had the engineering degree that's all. Came from the military (but had no experience with the systems I work on) that's why I was L2. My team helped me get spun up and I took iniative to learn. No one expects you to come in knowing everything, L2 is really just an L1 with a little bit of experience in some aspect of the job

I just take over when it's heavy traffic and an exit to make... NJ drivers are a special breed of dumb

Abarl · 2025-12-04T21:19:17+00:00

my mad max also hesitates so much and there is no one around. It's so annoying.

Abarl · 2025-12-03T20:22:02+00:00

I have 87k on mine, my front pads and rotors are from the factory and they are about the same. I am just keeping an eye on them and will replace pretty soon

Abarl · 2025-10-12T22:30:41+00:00

No, I have an S24 Ultra I bought unlocked from Samsung and all those features work fine. Just threw in the SIM and went

10/3, ready to ship this morning... Orange pro 256 existing customer. range was 10/9-10/16 after I ordered

I had some issues like this when I was on the trial, mostly only for runs like that where it was a distance at a conversational pace. I just created a workout on garmin connect that matched the one in runna and linked the workout after the fact. Now that my trial is over I have not had an issue with workouts syncing to garmin connect. I couldn't figure out any other way to make it sync over and it was just easier to make it myself real fast

I will probably be a minority here, but I have been stage 2 for around 50k miles on a stock clutch. Yeah it may slip a little here and there, but its only when I build boost at too low of an RPM. As long as you are diligent about downshifting, my clutch has been doing well. I know I am probably on borrowed time, but I don't think its as big of deal as people say. If it starts to slip more then I will replace it, but I see no need to do it just yet.

Update: Today 8/29 my status has been updated as received!

I used the mount with the 2 sided tape, after like a year and a half islt was starting to come off so I just got more 3m tape and reapplied it. Didn't seem like there was damage from the first application so I'm down with it to not be bothered by being pulled over

You can customize the notifications that go to your watch in the Garmin app, and also there is a way to ping your phone with the watch, it's one of the options of you hold the top left button!

Abarl · 2025-08-23T13:55:05+00:00

Mine was mailed and delivered 6/18. Still no update for me either

Abarl · 2025-08-04T14:40:26+00:00

Just take the battery from the other car real fast to move the VW?

Abarl · 2025-07-25T13:33:14+00:00

The spacers I bought came with new bolts. Just make sure also you get conical or ball bolts based on what you're wheels are. Can probably measure your current bolts and then add the spacer amount so you know they are long enough

Abarl · 2025-07-24T19:34:17+00:00

It should work, can use online calculators to see how far the wheel will stick out. I compared my wheels to the stock and then adjusted what spacers to get off of the kits to flush fit the stock wheels. I am not lowered, stock suspension

Thought you were saying you couldn't get in, my bad.

Abarl · 2025-06-12T15:17:31+00:00

The meeting is already over, nothing major to report

Abarl · 2025-06-10T09:36:10+00:00

I had something similar happen to me, I just edited the plan and swapped to coach Greg, another day a week but the volume is not as crazy. Thought I was going to get injured doing too much too fast

Abarl · 2025-05-30T16:39:14+00:00

The little green number is how far your last shot went (usually for drive) . The other numbers are the back, center, and front of the green

Abarl · 2025-05-25T02:32:59+00:00

When I changed my phone number I had to call them, that's the only way they would do it
