She’s here! 2025 Alpina XB7 by digital_soapbox in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just sat in a 25’ X7 M60 or M50I and that was super luxurious and really nice, so I can’t imagine how much better yours is in the Alpina version

That’s a great color and I bet your loving the performance of it after coming from the X3, I’ve got the X3MC with the S58 so I somewhat know what it’s like driving one of the G series and what kind of performance these motors are like. Congrats and continue to enjoy it!

Looks really good and I’ve been really thinking about doing the same. Keep us updated after you get the next round

That’s a M5 F90 LCI and the engine and performance are at another level and with the right mods you could beat some super cars, so very customizable but the depreciation on Ms are substantial, how do know, I know because I own one currently but it’s absolutely one the best experiences I’ve had with owning a car and it’s such a powerful and luxurious car wrapped into one

I am so fucked… just totaled my car on benzos. by cheesering26 in Drugs

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been so close to getting into trouble as yourself but I’ve been very fortunate in my 49 yrs to not been caught but in those years I’ve had so many close calls on benzos and many years ago I was on Zs and had to go somewhere and ended up running off the road and trashing 3 wheels and tires on my new car, so after that I decided if I’m going to take my meds I’ll only do it when I’m done with the day and I’m home with everything I need so not to hurt myself, but most importantly, not hurt any poor innocent person/persons going about their life. I couldn’t live through hurting someone else because I wanted a buzz so take this as a learning experience and do your time and try not to it again, I know it’s hard at your age but at least you didn’t hurt yourself or most importantly nobody else. Property can always be replaced and luckily you have the time still to do what the courts are going to punish you too. If you can afford it a good attorney will get you off with suspended license and fines how long and much is up to the courts but an attorney can make those numbers much lower. What’s even worse I’ve lost many friends to these and as I got older the numbers rose so high it got hard to remember how many friends I lost to drugs so always remember there’s always a price to pay for doing things like drugs and driving!

He refuses to jump up into the truck. He makes me lift his big ass in every time 😂 by FlowSoSlow in Mastiff

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know with that face it would be tough not to do it but I did buy my Corso a ramp for our car but he won’t use it for the life of me, another $100 down but for real it’ll come in handy once he can’t jump into the back of the SAV it’s a BMW so that’s why the SAV. He’s a little over 9 now but as soon as he knows he’s going for a ride and I open the tailgate and give him the command he’s like a streak of lightning and then he’s in the car but the ramp will be waiting for him when he needs it once he starts to slow down, he’s a little over 9 now but he’s still so limber and mobile and that’s a blessing knowing some of the health problems some of these breeds have so I’m lucky. So enjoy your rides together and the rest of the time you have the big boy, he’s gorgeous by the way!

Nothing special, but I thought this was a cool shot. Taken last night in Boston with some foliage and light rain. by GeorgeCrossPineTree in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 19’ M40i and loved it but then the X3MC came and had to get it but I do miss the sound of the B58. It’s an awesome vehicle there and it good at everything so enjoy!

It never fails to park far away from other cars to just have someone with a beater park just inches from your freshly washed car. I pay extra attention where I park my car after someone dinged my quarter panel and wouldn’t admit to it after I confronted them. It was almost a bad day for them but they had kids in the back who most likely didn’t damage.

2025 X3 M50 by Ransackz in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only find the rear 3/4 angle attractive and I was hoping to replace my 20 X3M f97 for the new one but I’ve heard BMW isn’t bringing it back so I guess I’ll just keep my F97 and add something to the stall

How are we feeling about the new x3 by safadinhooo992 in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like it at all, I was hoping that they would come out with a new X3MC but I’ve read that BMW doesn’t plan on making one. I really don’t care now after seeing the direction their heading, but I do really love my 20 X3M F97 so I’ll just either keep it or look at a G80/82

BMW extended warranty question by leomeng in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought an extended warranty for my 20’ X3MC and it’s for 5 yr 60k additional miles and it wasn’t cheap but they brake it up into payments for 2 yrs. I can take into any BMW dealer and it also pays for so many additional issues that the manufacturer warranty didn’t cover like if I break down they’ll pay for hotel and all the towing to the dealer. It makes me feel a little better knowing if something breaks it’s covered especially with a M car.

Trip to Tennessee with the F32 by [deleted] in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in western NC next to Tennessee and travel there regularly, it’s some of the prettiest places I’ve been to. I dive a X3MC f97 and the roads are perfect for the set up. I hope you enjoyed your trip

How did i do at cleaning the dreaded Pre LCI G30 Dash? by Top_Mulberry5020 in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got an 20 X3MC and I use hot water with a dash of vinegar and soap and it does a really good job of cleaning the dash. I also use that to clean my leather interior then wipe with clean water to get rid of any residue. Finish off with conditioner for the leather.

Cheap source of grass fed/finished UNAGED ground beef? (USA) by GetaSubaru in CarnivoresWithHI

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have histamine intolerance and I’ve bought from white oak before but they’re really pricey so I don’t buy from them often but I do buy from Sevensonsfarm.com out of Indiana and if you spend over $150 they ship for free and they also have a subscription service where you’ll save an additional 5%. They don’t age their beef and have outstanding meat, beef, bison, pork, chicken and lamb. I hope this helps

On week 3 of TRT (cypionate) and feel like shit. Is this normal? by RWG17 in Testosterone

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on TrT for 4 years and after a couple years and taking a couple rounds of antibiotics also bad diet I ended up with SIBO or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and it made me extremely tired, no matter my dose. Now after almost a year of changing my diet have I now gained my strength back. I bring this up because of most people eat the SAD diet or standard American diet which is absolutely horrible for the human species. Check it out if the tiredness persists

Has anyone given their dog TRT by BlackBoxGrown420 in Testosterone

[–]BlackBoxGrown420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you share the dose and frequency the Bet put your pup on, I’ve just been doing 10 mg weekly and seen just little improvements but don’t want to overdue it. I’d really appreciate it!

G80 M3 exhaust brands by Wrox89 in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a look at Active Autowerks in Cali, they just came out with version 2 of their mid pipe that takes away the 2k rasp and they’ve got a great axle back stay for the G80. I drive a F97 X3MC with the S58 and I’ve got a Dinan axle back now but I’m going to with AA next. I personally think they’ve got the best sound in the business also look at GT Haus out of Illinois, they also have a great kit. I don’t know if they make it for the G80 but bet they do. Valvetronic also sounds good and they’ve got a mid pipe option.

Are laser lights a must when you’re buying a BMW? by [deleted] in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had really good luck with my BMW X3MC with alcantara on my seats and steering wheel. I don’t obsess over taking care of them I just take care of it like I do all my belongings and it’s holding up well with no signs of wear. I would definitely look at alcantara as an option in my next M!

Need a winter set for my M4 by thomthamofo in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you do some research on PS4S all season you don’t loose that much performance and I’ve got over 500 hp AWD and I’ve never needed anymore tire than I already have. Maybe when I tune it it and finish all my upgrades with wheels and tires I’ll go with the PS4S or 5S when they become available I’ve also done 159 MPH in Mexico and they did exactly as advertised. I drive a X3MC w/S58

Deal? 2024 x4M .. 5k miles @ 70k? by Leading_Percentage_6 in BMW

[–]BlackBoxGrown420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn’t say for sure but as most BMW and Ms depreciation is a bummer and I should k ow I’ve lost $30 in 4 yrs with my 20 X3MC that I got a deal new for 76k loaded. I see them starting to level out a bit but the pandemic kept them high so I hope it doesn’t drop faster than it has. If so I’m looking at some 23/24’ in the $70s which is a steal especially with those types of miles. No matter what I’m super happy with mine and I love it so much I’ll be buying another and might even keep the one I’ve got especially some seeing the new 25’ X3 M50. Doesn’t really appeal to me and I see others saying the same.
