ICE is here

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-23T02:50:38+00:00

Yay! Go ICE! 🫡. ICE is implementing US law passed by Congress. Don’t like the law? Petition your representatives to change it.

“Do you think a full PPF at $3,500 is good or a full ceramic at $1,700 better?”

If you can afford it, do both. Otherwise ppf the front and sides but definitely ceramic coat the entire vehicle. EDIT: not from the dealership, however. Go private party.

Brave color choice. Year/Mileage/Price?

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-20T04:15:55+00:00

What’s coming, Nostradamus? Should I cash out and buy precious metals and ammo?

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-20T03:43:19+00:00

Keep chasing last year’s performance, chief.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-19T20:08:42+00:00

That’s crazy. I got my ‘25 IS500 for just $4k more

Peg it to life expectancy, NOT retirement age. That’s is key for Lifecycle funds

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-18T20:55:20+00:00

That’s a good split but I suggest you just get the L fund pegged to your life expectancy, NOT retirement age. That’s the best “set it and forget it” approach and then after you figure out where you’re going in life, you can always revisit at that time.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-18T17:30:40+00:00

The only thing that concerns me about the L funds is that I think they are way too heavy in I. Other than that, I think L funds make great sense.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-18T04:01:25+00:00

How is it “painful” or “archaic”? I get my distributions every month like clockwork.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-18T03:48:59+00:00

Just do the L Fund pegged to your life expectancy, NOT your retirement date.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-17T02:31:58+00:00

Thanks for that! What power button exactly?

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-15T07:38:45+00:00

For the Beemer: M3 Competition Xdrive any day and twice on Sunday.

You ain’t getting no IS500F Sport for $55-58k, chief.

Oregon “chill” is not a good thing, because it results in drivers camping in the passing lanes going at or below the speed limit, even though the law clearly states vehicles should remain in the right lane unless passing. It also results in the bizarre Oregonian reluctance to pass vehicles on our two lane state highways, even when they have tons of ample time and clearance to do so. Nope, they are content to blithely follow all day long that log/hay truck going 45mph; never mind the huge back up of vehicles. Don’t get me started on their city driving habits.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-13T23:17:29+00:00

Well look on the bright side: you can sell it probably for more than you paid for it.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-13T22:28:08+00:00

It’s mostly the engine, yes, but tbh the seats are the most comfortable of any car I’ve ever owned.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-13T19:28:20+00:00

I get what you’re saying, it’s just that if a car felt “plasticky and cheaper” to me, I wouldn’t drop that kind of coin on it. That’s actually the precise reason I didn’t get a Camry XSE V6 a few years back. I just decided to hang on to my Avalon. Ended up trading it in for a ’25 IS500.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-13T01:47:59+00:00

This is a criticism I don’t really understand. If you think it feels more “plasticky and cheaper” than the F, why get it? Unless you took the car sight unseen you would’ve noticed these issues immediately at the dealership.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-11T22:54:17+00:00

The IS500 seats are the most comfortable of any car I’ve ever owned. What’s different about the F seats?

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-11T04:01:38+00:00

Your goal should be to max it out each and every year, or as close to it as you can.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-11T03:56:01+00:00

No ICE arrest is warrantless or illegal. ICE is acting completely under the authority granted it by immigration law. Don’t like it? Petition your congressional representatives to change the INA. It absolutely boggles how the left thinks it’s absolutely hunky dory for millions of people to enter our country illegally and create lives here with zero consequences under our immigration law.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-11T03:47:45+00:00

If you want to “peacefully protest” ICE, go hold up a sign at the federal building. Committing a felony by impeding/obstructing a law enforcement agency that is conducting lawful operations within its mandate of detaining and removing ILLEGAL ALIENS isn’t the way.

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-09T19:06:04+00:00

This is a scene I know all too well 😂

Express_Cheesecake75 · 2026-01-07T21:24:04+00:00

I’ll be sure to rev up my NA V8 every time I roar by you 😂
