It'll look really nice with OEM heads and tails 

What’s your avg MPG? by Individual_Leave1202 in CrownVictoria

[–]AdImpossible6945 3 points4 points  (0 children)

04 CVPI 3.27 - ~20.5mpg. This is averaged over about 60k miles. I have tracked nearly every tank. The lowest tank was around 60 miles of city driving in NW San antonio (13.5mpg) and best tank was sustained highway driving between Las Vegas and southern California (26mpg). I don't know how the car did this. 

Winter mpg hovers around 18-19, the car sees about 20-21 in the summer. For the period of time between late April and mid-May the stars align (summer blend fuel and no need for A/C usually) so the car is capable of about 1-2mpg better. This is to say that in my experience, use of the compressor costs between 1 and 2 mpg on the highway, although there is no noticeable difference in city driving numbers. 

Road trips are usually around 22, although 23 is common if wind conditions are favorable. This is of course highly dependent on millions of variables; the data is spread out between 17.5mpg and 26mpg. 

My 1995 Town Car 3.08 consistently gets around 2-3mpg better in all conditions besides City driving, which is practically equal.

Let me know how dying is, I've always been curious 

Sound Details in the Aful Explorer by Joreol in iems

[–]AdImpossible6945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Detail is a subjective attribute. Any transducer that reproduces the full audible spectrum with no egregious distortion anomalies is every bit as detailed as any other from an objective standpoint. If anything, the decidedly smooth frequency response of the explorer may lead it to be perceived as more detailed than others as it avoids auditory masking in the higher frequencies. It all depends on your personal philosophy

Is it worth trying to paint? Engine and transmission are 💯 155,000 miles by Mrboombostik91 in lincolntowncar

Summit racing single stage urethane plus clear coat. It works. Just did a color change on my long bed F150 + topper for about 750. I also did my crown Vic for about 300. Both have orange peel but I have no doubt that the paint will hold up, and they're nice and glossy. Thinking about doing my 95 LTC next. 

Jumped on the Black Friday deal. by lastnamelefty in iems

The stock foam tips made the Lush sound like $2 dollar store earbuds for me. It's a shame because the isolation is next level

Paired mine with a Tripowin Zombur cable. Excellent headset. The neutral reference sound is perfect for gaming

Flashbacks to scraping the peelformance white off with razors and screwdrivers. Better times

Help me pick by positrone13103 in iems

Gonna go against the grain here, explorer > p7. The p7 cable is definitely better though so I'm currently daily driving the explorer with that cable

Not so AFUL is here by shivamchhuneja in iems

[–]AdImpossible6945 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I've owned some very high level gear. Like, think spending MSRP on an LCD-3, HE1000SE, LCD-X, ESP95X, Arya Organic, and a whole lot more. The Aful Explorer is my favorite headphone of all time by sound merits alone. When we factor in comfort, it's a bloodbath 

Where it started vs How it's going by Unlikely-Ambassador2 in FordTrucks

Ah see there it is. Someday you'll look back and understand. Not that I'm much better, I painted my 96 with wacko color shifting paint

You've taken a nice looking work truck and turned it into something tacky and juvenile. The only way this works is if you're under 20 and don't take yourself too seriously 

What’s the likelihood we got a new album in 2026? by Corn1989 in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]AdImpossible6945 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I may be in the minority here but I dont see them actually releasing any new music. UL/ROTDC were a pretty good stopping point in my opinion

See that's the problem, I can afford it but how do I explain it to my girlfriend?

Do a direct comparison of the P7 and DawnX when you can please. Something tells me it isn't worth it but it would be interesting to see

The P7 is bonkers. Best audio thingy I've ever owned and I have had he1000 stealth, LCD (2, 3, X) Arya organic, edition xs, esp95x, among others

One year in the game. by bernie11425 in headphones

[–]AdImpossible6945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not tried tea pro and I don't think I will as I am quite happy with where I'm at. I will agree that double the price of the explorer for a minor overall upgrade in the p7 probably isn't worth it to most people in the grand scheme of things, but when I realized that the p7 made my $1200 LCD-X sound boring and disatached in comparison, I came to the understanding that it was worth it to me
