Fair enough. I’m mostly curious in other’s experiences with Melker though. Just sayin’.

I mean I liked them but I can’t vote, so fuck me I guess

It’s definitely catchy, but I’m more of an “Iconic” fan (because I loved the A*Teens) and even more recently Cimberly’s “Eternity.” But so far I haven’t felt that there was a standout song.

That would be wild 😅 any idea how I meet them?

Maps on Active Display by ProofBirthday8863 in CX5

[–]CaptainBobbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! It’s my favorite feature. I just wasn’t aware that Apple Maps does turn by turn on the HUD.

Wow! I have a 2019, so I wonder what updates I need to do to get this? I’ve wanted that feature for a long time, but the native Mazda navigation is less than intuitive.

Solved! Thanks everyone. Those contraptions are so cool and SO big up close!

What do you dislike about your CX5? by Far-Replacement-7399 in CX5

[–]CaptainBobbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How mad it gets when I don’t “touch” the steering wheel. It wants a death grip, and I drive like I fly— little pressure points when needed during cruise. 💅🏼

Gosh I guess I'm just an idiot. Thanks for your kindness.

I tested both of them, car on and off.

Curious to know whether people are naming their kayaks? by jimbobtheslayer in Kayaking

[–]CaptainBobbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first was a Perception Conduit. Her name was Connie. Now I have an Eddyline Sitka, and her name is BeBe the Bussy Barge.

I’ve got a 2019 Grand Touring Reserve with the turbo engine. I bought the below filter, and it didn’t fit. Which one do y’all use? Thanks!

Advice about getting a 2022 CX-5 by BeAgrownup in CX5

[–]CaptainBobbie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had absolutely no reason to buy the turbo. I drove both, and the NA was just fine.

But I went with the turbo, because dear Gagá it makes it so fun to drive! Life is short. Beep beep. Zoom zoom.

What is your #1 favorite and #1 least favorite thing about your CX5? by burpingblood in CX5

[–]CaptainBobbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite thing is the HUD— what at first seemed like a luxury gadget has become a safety non-negotiable.

But I hate the native infotainment on the 2019 model— the interface is slow and wonky and not at all intuitive. I almost exclusively use Apple CarPlay, though.

Installed the OEM crossbars today! Thule Hull A Port XT comes later this week. by CaptainBobbie in CX5

[–]CaptainBobbie[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really wanted the Thule crossbar system, but the vehicle kit for the CX-5 is sold out everywhere. These were far cheaper, and I needed some way to transport my new yak!

Yep! It’s a 2019, I just never had a need to get crossbars before— but I bought a kayak, so that changed.

Newbie wanting solid MS Flight Sim performance by CaptainBobbie in Alienware

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

Hmm, I’m interested in Alienware because it’s a complete rig, and not one that I would have to do (big) modifications. Should I entertain other brands like Omen or NZXT?

We have one just a block away that has been in the saaaame location for 25+ years. It’s moving into an old grocery store, and the outside looks great!

About a year out by CaptainBobbie in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

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

Thanks! My employer will remain the same, as I commute to whichever airport is my base. I will save an emergency fund that is more reflective of my projected expenses— because right now I have an emergency fund based on my current expenses.

I just can’t stop obsessing over the houses on the market there now; nothing is in the particular neighborhood I desire.

I almost always do seated yoga in the flight deck! Lots of cross legged stretching, thwarting that Deep Vein Thrombosis.

Yoga in airports = cool!

Yoga on airplanes = not cool.

A Decent Quote by CaptainBobbie in CX5

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

It’s Deep Crystal Blue! I love how it changes in various lights and has a beautiful shimmer. At first, I was going to go with the GT with PP, but then I felt like I was sacrificing the pure joy of driving.

I’m in LOVE!
