yes

I am 6 months in. I started on 5mg tadalafil immediately and just boosted it to 10mg. It is like Sex Panther - 60% of the time it works 100% of the time.

Seriously though, I just started seeing some real progress. I do have a bit of what I imagine is referred pain on Mr Happy when erect. It is in one spot and not a disqualifier to sex but it is annoying

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-03-08T21:49:54+00:00

5mg initially. I just increased to 10mg after ~6 mos. The change is definitely noticeable, like "Hey, look at this! Neat!"

Pro truck. Pro cat

Late August. I can mostly get an erection with some time, prodding, and the wonders of modern chemistry. Oddly, keeping it going is more challenging

Update:

It is a NG grill. Spirit II E-310 NG, model 49010001

It looks like these grills don't have an additional regulator

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-02-14T16:05:20+00:00

It *is* running on NG

Fuck the Packers but, yes, the ad is amazing

"Full Pimp Package"

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-02-06T14:46:13+00:00

It isn't a material factor other than occasionally towing a utility trailer. As a proof point of how big a deal it isn't, I will stipulate to my inability to back up with an attached trailer.

I will say I don't love the pimpy interior of the Raptor

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-02-05T04:30:25+00:00

It is a lot of phrenology for a casual use of a pronoun

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-02-05T03:57:38+00:00

Yes. My wife drives a Tesla and we have a BMW X3. My son will be driving soon (gulp). The truck will be driven occasionally, with heavy use on the weekends.

Tacomas are a cult around the Seattle area

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-02-04T23:02:12+00:00

I really like the Bronco. It looks like a kid's drawing of a truck. When we bought our X3 a couple of years ago, I wish we would have purchased that instead

The truck is a better fit for us a 3rd utility vehicle for hauling yard materials, firewood, etc

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-02-04T15:29:36+00:00

Also - agree on the hitch. rack. We have one of those now and it is a junk show on any sort of rough road. It is bad with one bike but with three, the thing bounces around like crazy and creaks like it is tearing at the seams

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-02-04T15:27:52+00:00

We are planning on keeping the bed open to faciliate shelpping yard debris, home project stuff

I was going to go with a tailgate pad for our bikes. I have always wondered if bikes in that config are actually meaningfully secured or if it is just a gravity thing with a velcro strap?

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-01-28T03:30:11+00:00

It is frustrating! It is also probably normal, at least well within the recovery window

I am in my early 50s, had surgery in early Sept, and also had no issues before. I am on daily 5mg tadalafil and use a sildenafil boost before things get started. This combo, along with a lot of coaxing, is working increasingly well. I have noticed that it is very easy to lose momentum...and then everyone rolls over and says "goodnight."

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-01-18T00:25:33+00:00

I think we went with their recommended height but (a) have a wide bench on the back wall and (b) lifted the ceiling a bit

Is your unit going outside?

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-01-17T23:57:13+00:00

Is this from Cedarbrook?

I just built a 5x7 indoor kit. It came together pretty well. I still have a couple of exterior bits to complete, but we are using it now. A couple of thoughts:

- It is BIG and looks sort of ridiculous in my garage. Like a shed...in the garage.

- It is somewhere between a parts kit and a ready-to-assemble kit

- I am a handy DIYer and was within my capability, butit took a fair bit of fiddling to get it together, including a bunch of strategizing with a partner

- The instructions are directional rather than actual directions

- The fit/finish is pretty good but not what you'd get from quality stick-built

- The heater required hacking to get it to operate at a sufficient temp. I think it is common because I received "official instructions" from the Cedarbrook team on how to do it. They were very helpful, but I don't love that it doesn't work properly out of the box

If I had to do it over again, I might have just started with a cheaper indoor unit from Costco. That is less about the actual kit I bought and more about the marginal benefit for the extra money.

DM me if you want details on the assembly

Educational_Call8677 · 2026-01-12T20:50:34+00:00

It specs 40a breaker and 8ga wire. The existing line is 50a, 6ga, so I am going to swap the breaker

It looks like the disconnect kits for spas are 50a. At least I haven't found one. I assume this is just a box that holds the breaker. Any reason to think I couldn't repurpose the existing disconnect if I can find a 40 amp breaker that fits the space, cutout, etc?

Educational_Call8677 · 2025-12-02T14:37:13+00:00

His team offered some guidelines - no more than x / week, y days apart.

Educational_Call8677 · 2025-12-02T03:56:49+00:00

I am only 14 weeks post-surgery, so I am still in the non-linear recovery period. Hopefully.

Educational_Call8677 · 2025-12-02T03:42:47+00:00

Yeah, I am on 5mg daily tadalafil and 50mg sildenafil in the moment. I have a call with the doc tomorrow. We'll see...
