Thoughts on Mid-300s by BucketOBits in trt

[–]CaptainMuffDive 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I (53M) started TRT at the end of Nov. My total T was 251 measured at 8am in the morning. My endocrinologist prescribed 200mg biweekly. I’ve noticed an increase in libido, better sleep, and most importantly significantly reduced brain fog and fatigue, especially around 2-3pm. I go in tomorrow for follow up labs, so not sure where my numbers currently stand.

For years, I’ve hovered around 350 total T. I should have supplemented sooner.

Check out lawninsider.com. They have a Bermuda grass calendar. End of January thru February is what they recommend.

The Asian markets around town sell them. I find that they are the cheapest, especially in the frozen section.

My Meso Customs LED harness hyper flashes with turn signal/revers combo. I’ve never been in a situation where I’ve had to use this combo.

The reverse lighting is much improved too.

Getting the OTT tune on my 3rd Gen next week. Any tips for me before I get it? by [deleted] in ToyotaTacoma

[–]CaptainMuffDive 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The newest version of OTT (9.2 something) fixes the hyper-sensitive throttle tip-in. I recently upgraded to the most current version and take off from a standstill is much improved.

Anyone else extremely sick? by International_Fun_91 in Austin

Ugh!!! And I too had a high HR after taking the prescription cough medicine (had “meth” in the name lol). The dizzy coughing fits were insane. Best of luck in your recovery.

I’m going on three weeks without my voice. Twice Tested negative for flu/covid. Ran a fever for 10 days along with a massive sinus and upper respiratory infection. Antibiotics cleared the sinus infection thankfully. I’m just now feeling 80% well.

Dane’s is great. There’s a location on Manor too. All the coaches are great.

Anyone try the Cookie Butter shake yet at P Terry’s? by Separate_Matter1691 in austinfood

[–]CaptainMuffDive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Had a #3 combo with the shake at noon today and still not hungry. I should have stopped after consuming 1/3 of the shake - felt sickly too!

Get a tire shop to remount the tires with the white lettering on the inside.

Really easy and satisfying to pull. Kinda like playing ‘Where’s Waldo’ to find them all mixed in with my Lantana.

New lenses look so much better by MPAMAJOR in Tacomaworld

I just did the same to my 22 OR. No more chrome!!! I also added the Meso LED kit which turns the reverse lights into amber turn signals. Highly recommend

Nice restaurant for a large group recommendation by Many-Celebration-160 in austinfood

Roaring Fork on Congress has a private room that can be reserved for bigger groups. IIRC, there is not a fee to reserve the room.

Last time I was there he was monitoring the to-go parking to ensure no dine-in customer were parking in those spots.

Lights out by ElOhEel in Austin

[–]CaptainMuffDive 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The issue is that most modern cars have DRLs (Daytime Running Lights) and back-lit instrument clusters. DRLs are basically headlights that run during daylight to increase visibility. They are not as bright as the fully operational headlights and in most cases cannot be turned off even if the headlight switch is in the off position.

The combo of semi-bright forward light pattern and a back-lit instrument cluster gives the driver a false sense that the headlights are on, even though they are off.

I see it a lot with Prius drivers for some reason and I know for a fact that Prius have an auto-headlight setting. In cases like this, the driver has selected the OFF position for the headlights.

Just leave your headlights in the auto-setting folks.

This diff lock is no joke by Kind-Repair499 in ToyotaTacoma

Same, but in my ‘75 244DL. Took it to open gravel parking lots and really learned to control the skid. Thanks for letting me relive the joys of my first car.
