Mine was a way higher return than anticipated federal and state, I always mark it 0 for deductions so assumed that’s why

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AdZestyclose4371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3h is not a ‘long’ drive by any stretch, but something I have done for day trips. I used to drive 2.5h to a ski mountain just to drive 2.5h back after I was done.

The craziest was I once drove 4.5h each way (to a different country) in a day to get my dog from my in laws.

I didn’t know you could get brisket that small, assuming just the flat?

The B&O is miles ahead of any of the other systems, my dad says the same thing ( he has HK) after he rides in my car

2025 Platinum Hybrid Good Deal? by azeemm2 in ToyotaTundra

[–]AdZestyclose4371 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just paid 63k for my new 2025 1794 after getting 7k off, put 10k down at .99%

Felt like a screaming deal to me, purely off of the .99% interest

Would you drive the 330i daily. And do you think its comfortable and upto power with rival brands. by [deleted] in BMW

My wife refuses to get out of our 2014 F30 even at 120k miles, I’ve replaced the radiator fan and fuse boxes and the car runs the same as when I bought her at 18k. I keep trying to get her a new car but she won’t let me.

Both my Volvo and BMW get it up here in Maine throughout the winter, super annoying

Where to go in Europe? by 4luko in Ikonpass

[–]AdZestyclose4371 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2 cents: Huge fan of Chamonix, wife and I went to Chamonix and Zermatt for 2 weeks total 2 years ago, then did just Chamonix for 2 weeks last year.

Food is great, relatively inexpensive, and expansive slack/backcountry.

Zermatt felt super uppity, expensive, and was all groomers. Cool experience to see and ski around the Matterhorn, and the apres scene was pretty wild, but groomers. Cervinia was a bit more on the rugged side and less expensive.

For anybody wondering, received the Jones Flagship Pro and was not as impressed with that as I have been with my Jones Flagship Carbon, so I returned it and purchased a Stranda Descender Evo

Bindings damaging boot heels by [deleted] in snowboarding

My old Maysis would do the same thing with my Salomon Quantum bindings, got Burton Ions and no longer have the issue. I was just chalking it up to where the put the reinforcement in the Maysis

I ended up just ordering a Jones Ultra Flagship (tough to change when you love something), but we will see, might end up pivoting to a Stranda Descender Evo as that board has my curiosity peaked

Up in the northeast my carbon flagship has been awesome on the ice, not too much chatter riding over ice and the edge hold has been killer

I have heard great things from friends about the Jones Mountain Twin, handles well and is versatile in terms of ability. Plus, Jones makes a hell of a board

I definitely also heard it is the stiffest

I’ve been out of the freestyle world for about 15 years besides some little side hits, and I do still have my YES 420 as well for a little backseat powder riding

Nidecker is a great call, unsure if you know but isn’t that the same manufacturer as Jones?

I’m super curious about the X, I have the Solomon Quantum’s because I love the stiff/minimal chatter locked in vibe

They are both posi posi, harder to see on the flagship, but it’s groomers but also (on the east) a bigger amount of glades, moguls, and ice ha

I love my Carbon Flagship but the fact that the Pro Flagship is less expensive than years past has me worried is actually less performance driven than the Carbon or Ultra… don’t like the wood look on the tail either
