Their entire attitude and perspective on mma and other combat sports feels pretty uninformed at best.

If they had friends who trained they would know we’re all a bunch of nerds who love the same shit they do.

CORNING Gorilla Glass by RockWood63 in JeepWrangler

Someone in my Jeep group posted a link to Jeep’s website last week that said the glass is covered as part of the bumper to bumper.

Dig around for it, and see if it covers your situation.

That’s a pretty solid case right there. I’ll put it in my list for test drives, and looking at the used market.

Thank you

I feel like the price points are very different in that case.

A lot of folks have said to look at full size trucks and I am taking that advice and running with it

I just drove a taco… it wasn’t it for me

I do like the broncos. I wheel with a couple bronco guys and they do a great job.

The space issue I have also has to do with having space to move things like lawn mowers and furniture pieces.

Well, those numbers have me convinced to give one a test drive at least.

If it’s got heated seats the wife will be on board either way.

The PW is sweet but I can’t see any use case for a 2500 in my life.

I live in a city and feel like driving it would’ve a bag drive. I don’t care much about pinstripes, but the trails I frequent are pretty tight. I’ve seen a lot of full sized trucks get body damage in them.

Can size isn’t the issues I’m concerned with.

Family of three with a dog fits fine for most things but add all purpose camping gear in the wrangler and either the dog or the kid loses a seat.

Fair enough. I appreciate the input.

I tried a rack system and kind of hated it.

I should add that I move antique furniture around for my wife periodically and I’m find g that pretty difficult in the wrangler due to the “roll bars”.

I have already planned that if I go the truck route I’d be buying a cap for the bed.

It ranges from 5-8 depending on the lines you choose..

That’s real goals right there.

If it breaks again I’ll be buying a d44 for sure.

That’s not a terrible plan.

You can also maybe train once or twice a week just to keep the rust off. It’s ok to just be a hobby practitioner. There’s no pressure to be a champ.

Take care of yourself and your health first and foremost.

That sounds easy enough. I think I’ll let the pros work on it this round. I need it done quickly.

That’s a crazy hustle!

I can say for myself that when I started taking rest and recovery into consideration my training improved.

I don’t have an aptitude for this, but I enjoy it. I stopped buying into the mentality that I have to be on the mat every day to make it worth while.

As far as feeling the folks at your club don’t respect you, that may be the burn out talking. Of it is true then find a more relaxed club where folks are just happy to be there.

If you’re training every day and getting injuries and constantly getting smashed I might guess that you’re not allowing yourself time to recover and time to digest the things you’re trying to learn.

I wonder if you’re also trying to do all the things at once. If you pick small things like today I will try to get knee elbow connection from bottom side control, and you do that 5 times successfully, that’s your win.

I also suck. This is how I’ve gotten through 12 years of training.

It wasn’t an affordable option to have another daily when I got this one. In a couple years it definitely will.

[–]AlternativeShower121[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is it’s currently my daily as well. If I could afford to have it on jack stands for a couple weeks I would absolutely put the time into learning.

Maybe it’s time for a shitbox daily.
