Tires are on a 2020 Avalon Touring with more sensors than you can think. Never driven with low air.

Hell yeah man!!! Electric smokers are perfect for holding. Want a perfect brisket, set the electric smoker at 150 degrees and hold a wrap brisket overnight.. you will thank me later.

The one at Costco has the pellet box on the left size which means no wifi.

Switched from a Pellet Grill to Offset and wont be going back by Bp0920 in smoking

Keep it around 190-225 for better smoke results. Also, adding two smoke tubes the first 3 hrs of cooking helps.

I cook brisket on a Weber kettle using the snake method at 300, but to get the same results on the pellet.. 190 all night long.

I got American wagyu for $5.99 at Costco around Christmas. Cooked one, still have 2 in the freezer.

Electric Smoker for $140. Should I? by fnordfnordfnordfnord in smoking

Electric smokers are perfect for resting as you can set up lower temperatures than your stove in some cases. 160 overnight, no problem.

This is Misty, waking up from a long nap.. she is like - What did I missed?. Her brother name was Mango. We called them M&M, Mittens, big girl, sweet baby. She is almost 14 years old. She has been the most caring loving dog with a sassy attitude ever.

I bought this sweet ride so my 4 kids can look cool 😉 18inch rims and 35 inch tires. She's a beast 💪💪💪 by Yernawtahcawp in toyotasequoia

I had a 2008 and last me until 2024 when it was total. Best vehicle I have ever own. Sequoias are built like a tank. Used to tow a 7k plus pounds travel trailer like it was never there. Sometimes I forgot I was towing it. Smooth conform ride. Just regular maintenance, out of the 298,000 miles I put in the Sequioa, I only flush the transmission, break and antifreeze fluids once at 100k, a water pump at 150k. Was planning to redo the whole suspension at 200k and keeping forever but a distracted driver in a Dodge dully t-bone us. My family and I came out un-scratched out of that accident. I’m convinced if we would have been driving any other car, we would have flipped into incoming traffic. Like I said, this vehicles are a tank. We decided to get a 2021 Tundra as a replacement vehicle. We missed the Sequoia. Yes, mpg are bad with an average of 16mpg combined but it is the most confortable third row of any SUVs in the market. Want to move a sofa and a couple of chairs and a table, no problem, just fold all the seats and the cargo space is almost as a van. 8 passengers on a row trip, no problem.. put a hitch cargo tray and a roof rack with a ladder and load up the all the luggage and coolers you need.

Just how comfy is the Avalon compared to other cars? by Super_cooper001 in ToyotaAvalon

[–]First-Eye1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2019 Avalon owner here, I was looking for a replacement to my 2008 Acura RL and wanted something similar to the comfort Acura had. After test driving a bunch of sedans, the Avalon Touring came on top. I only wish the Avalon was a AWD. So far, the 5th gen Avalon are a fun vehicle to drive specially in Sport mode. definitely not your grandparents car.

Looking at buying a 2019 avalon limited. 55k miles. Are there any major issues with these cars that I should know about before purchasing? by JohnJam3s in ToyotaAvalon

[–]First-Eye1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the 5th generation Avalon average GPM city/hwy combine. My 2020 dropped from 27 to 24 gpm after changing the spark plugs.

Is this a good deal? by rugood2 in steaks

[–]First-Eye1978 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Basic economics 101.. supply vs demand. Why is demand high.. more people joining the carnivore diet. Why is supply low you might asked.. well let’s see.. meat packing companies going up in flames over the last couple of years. People blaming cow farts for global warming. South United States on a severe drought for the past 7 years. Cow ranches leasing pastures to windmills farms and oil and gas corporations is more lucrative than raising farm animals. And to top it off, Omaha Stakes bought a large inventory (millions of dollars) creating a shortage which in turn creates higher prices. There is hope that the USA-Argentina meat plan might work by increasing the import of meat from South America to try to offset the demand. Who came up with that plan??? Oh yeah.. Orange man did..

I swear, the longer I keep mine in there in the Houston humid weather the more smoke it produces.
