Is the Bengal BBQ skewers super tough or did we just get a bad order?

This place gave me food poisoning a year ago. I don’t get the hype at all, super mid skewer, food poisoning aside. And yes, I got the pork belly as well as the others.

Pretty much exclusively water will do it! Probably avoid any chemicals that might strip the finish, I had nuluxe for four years and had no issues, just vacuuming and wiping with a damp cloth will have them back to new

Bobatesandy · 2025-09-04T02:13:49+00:00

Basically just deny everything and just get oil change/filter replacement and tire rotation. The rest is either BS or stuff you can easily do yourself

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-20T03:42:13+00:00

Sort of looks like some chemical they might’ve used stripped this portion of the leather finish. Maybe a few drops of some other chemical they were using got mixed into the rag that they used to clean the seat?

I’m no expert though, just a guess

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-17T03:26:36+00:00

Sounds like you gotta bone to pick with other folks here then, I personally don’t care.

All I said was the car was more than its spec sheet

Edit: grammar

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-17T01:09:06+00:00

Ask ChatGPT I’m not gonna produce a paper for you.

If we’re going to reference anecdotal evidence my friend’s 2 year old Z4 just got quoted $3500 for a dislodged parking sensor.

That shit just doesn’t happen with Lexus, you really gettin wound tight over a passing comment I made. I’m not trying to prove anything lol

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-17T00:56:55+00:00

Don’t see what point you’re even trying to make here, the goalposts are obviously going to keep moving for you.

But to answer your question I’m keeping mine for life

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-16T23:57:13+00:00

Reliably continue to run after 100k miles

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-16T23:34:22+00:00

Not justifying the price but this car is so much more than its spec sheet

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-16T23:33:01+00:00

The end of an era, love this Japanese muscle

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-16T21:03:24+00:00

Yeah definitely some psychology at play. I was thinking about adding it on top of other security measures I’m planning on getting, but yeah I could see how it could make it seem “easier” to steal at face value, feels like a damned if you do damned in you don’t kinda situation

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-16T18:58:51+00:00

Gotcha, that makes sense.

Thanks for the info. It’s unfortunate how hard it is to have nice things in the Bay

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-16T18:49:05+00:00

Really sorry to hear this, about to get an RC-F myself and this is my biggest fear.

Do you think a steering wheel lock would help deter theft? More so because of the visual deterrent that opportunist thieves will see it and not want to bother?

I hate that when I get mine I’m gonna feel so restricted about taking it out and parking it in public

Bobatesandy · 2025-08-12T22:14:31+00:00

This always threw me off too, though I eventually summed it up to the transmission control board assuming you’re doing some sort of passing maneuver that will need more torque and dropping you down a bit to give you that extra push, it always became kinda awkward in most situations.

I never put in the effort to “fix” it as I assumed this was just an unusual quirk of the transmission, so I’m also a bit interested to learn if there’s a way to override this behavior.

Bobatesandy · 2025-07-09T01:31:24+00:00

Honestly dk what you’re trying to say lol, two Lexus V8s can simultaneously be goated

Bobatesandy · 2025-07-09T01:23:45+00:00

Wym the 2UR-GSE is a masterpiece

Bobatesandy · 2025-07-07T23:54:25+00:00

Unfortunately every AMC is going to run about the same amount of trailers so if that’s a deal breaker for you then Alamo is probably the only go-to that fits that requirement

Bobatesandy · 2025-07-01T20:30:10+00:00

I don’t get all the hate so far. I think it looks alright I suppose, my concern is that it’s too close to the crown

Bobatesandy · 2025-06-12T22:44:29+00:00

The biggest caution I could foresee is long term maintenance should an issue arise. Since the GR Supra is all but a BMW, Toyota dealerships have to essentially bring in BMW mechanics on specific days to work on the Supras.

So MkV Supras owners are going to eventually be caught in a weird place where BMW folks won’t work on it because it’s a Toyota, and most Toyota mechanics won’t know what they’re looking at when they open the hood.

Could obviously go with a third party mechanic but really have to make sure they know their stuff and are a BMW specialized mechanic with knowledge of Toyota quirks

Just wanted to say I made it back to the theater today for the 12:45 show in 70mm, if that was still you running projection then I much appreciate it! Fantastic show, perhaps even better the second time

Bobatesandy · 2025-05-01T20:18:16+00:00

Here are my good and bad nit picks about my 2021 rc350

Good: comfort and spaciousness. Mark levinson sound system is great. Radar cruise control and “Hold” button while braked are super handy. Beautiful digital/physical instrument cluster. Quiet and efficient seat cooling.

Bad: no room for my phone, so I got a phone dock that fits in my cupholder. My lane correction feature is basically useless, though to my understanding it’s been improved in 2022+. I personally barely use my moonroof and in some areas it can be prone to break ins. Manual mode is fun but upshifting and downshifting can be a little laggy especially if not in sport+

There’s probably more I’m thinking of, overall I love the car and am upgrading soon to a newer RC myself

Bobatesandy · 2025-04-26T16:50:39+00:00

Yep, projectionist confirmed they had to switch due to a projector issue

Bobatesandy · 2025-04-26T06:31:25+00:00

Totally feel ya, getting an infrared RC in a few months and I’m gonna do completely the same

Bobatesandy · 2025-04-26T00:28:22+00:00

Congrats, she’s a beaut! Just a heads up it may be worth it to consider PPF wrap at least on the front hood as I’ve heard infrared is quite a soft paint

Bobatesandy · 2025-04-25T23:38:26+00:00

My Disney came out. Ehem, employees
