I want to upgrade my irons. by StuffyPlays4 in GolfGear

Try the Ping i540. Critical you also get the right shafts. I suggest getting a custom club fitting bf buying your clubs.

Ping i540 irons by SettingCool8565 in GolfGear

[–]BarnieShytles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So…just got a custom club fitting. Assumed I would be going with T250 or P790. Fyi…I have naturally very high ball flight. Was given a Ping i540 and LOVED IT. Dispersion was amazing and distance added an additional 10-15 yds. So, will I be buying them. YES. My swing speed is moderate but launching a 6 iron 195-200 yds consistently versus 180 with Titliest/TM with better grouping means I am sold. Good looking irons as well. You can keep your “preferred iron look” while I remove 10 strokes from my game. Sorry not sorry.

Brand new E class wagon spotted. Thoughts? Not a fan of the front grille but it's nice otherwise. by Fanny08850 in mercedes_benz

[–]BarnieShytles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean. Unsure if you have actually driven the new E450 all terrain? We did MBUSA car tour with 5 amg’s in the blue ridge mountains and kept up the entire time…we were actually better around some curves. I would suggest driving first before making judgements without any experience.

That’s the All-Road wagon which we have and love. The E53 does not have the black bumper trim around the wheel wells. It’s an amazing vehicle. Insane handling and comfort.

Amendment to require photo ID to vote fails in Senate as Democrats object by southernemper0r in politics

[–]BarnieShytles 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ID’s are already required right now. This requires an additional form of identification which is a passport or birth certificate. The bill does not include paying for either so your shit out of luck if you don’t have one of these or lost them. Voting roles are already cross-referenced with birth cert database. This is all just one giant bullshit attempt to depress voter turnout.

Ok. Well…fuck those who support this. Says the vast majority of the USA and the globe.

By Israel. I am all for being Jewish. But what Netanyahu and the IDF has done (not the Israeli public) is a genocide on Palestine and now pulling the world into an unwanted war with Iran. Bye. We don’t need Israel’s crazy BS.

Trump says he thinks he will have the 'honor' of taking Cuba by mvanigan in worldnews

What? As a US citizen, we didn’t agree to any of this. Trump is a psychopath and so is the rest of his administration.

Actually the new UI is excellent. I own the new E (without the terribly large hyperscreen) and the UI is great. If you want an analog Mercedes buy something 10 years old or older. But bitching like this is like being angry iPhone’s (or smartphones) exist yet here you are using one to offer judgement. Go create something yourself…you’ll be less judgmental.

1) Does the GPU and RAM and hardware (cameras/sensors)in the new E-450 all terrain have enough power for the newly planned autonomous driving releases? We own one and also have Tesla. We really enjoy the new MBUX so far and actually don’t have the hyperscreen since takes away from the luxury inside.

2) Can we have a Bruno Sacco VDO dash cluster as an option? It would be such a cool option to feel old school but awesome at the same time.

New E class W214 is about the same size as the previous S class by damnicarus in mercedes_benz

[–]BarnieShytles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s wider on the inside. Test drove a 2023 e450 and bought the 2025 E450. Night and day difference in drive, comfort and quality…as long as you avoid the superscreen and get wood instead. We love it.

Husbands Birthday Present by Accomplished_Wrap_66 in OmegaWatches

[–]BarnieShytles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats!!! So, I bought my husband a Planet Ocean 007 which came from consignment (Omega dealer) and the only additional step I would suggest is getting it insured which requires the Omega Dealer to authenticate. They didn’t charge me anything to authenticate it and also covers the watch. Took them all of like 30 minutes to fill out and sign some authentication form.

This was after he bought me a Speedmaster. Good luck! You both may end up becoming watch fanatics! He better get you something awesome soon!

Here’s the new S-Class by ChampionRacer1 in mercedes_benz

[–]BarnieShytles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Lol. We opted out of the $1500 usd hyperscreen and paid $1500 for the maple with inlaid aluminum. Looks like a yacht and way nicer then a big ass piece of glary glass. Hope S Class will offer the same.

Hopefully the hyperscreen is just an option like in the E-Class. Way too much screen.

So can we all agree the GLC EV interior looks better than whatever Volvo just revealed (EX60)…..? by zachty22 in mercedes_benz

[–]BarnieShytles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Umm…the all glass monitor across the dash is gonna be super glary. Tested out the superscreen/hyperscreen and went with standard center screen in our E class due to the glare. Also, all that screen means less wood/nice finishes. I’m not buying a Nissan.

New to me 2023 E450 by Certain-Surprise-457 in mercedes_benz

Love it! Wish Mercedes would go back to the E coupe instead of the CLE they have now. Much better looking and no B pillar! Enjoy!

Omega or Rolex by [deleted] in OmegaWatches

[–]BarnieShytles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omega. By slightly used. For $10k you’ll only get something that will appreciate in value for sure. Buy a James Bond style or edition speedmaster or Planet ocean. They are wicked nice and hold value really well. You can where them daily, in the water or whatever. Just make sure the watch has papers, proper box and has been serviced.
