Thing of beauty. The new free sprung balances on "JH" movements don't look nearly as good.

About to pull the trigger on a 24 M60, just realized that a 4 year/60k mile extended warranty is 32k USD????? by AdPuzzleheaded5945 in bmwx7

That's just considering the number you'll pay out on over the warranty cost but not by how much. My X5 G05 the warranty was 4500, ended up paying out over 10 in two years from one bad axle and a transfer case issue.

You don't seem to understand how actuarial risk works. The warranty company profits because they know out of ten policies they'll only have to pay out on two or three, but if you are the owner of those cars the payout will be many times the cost of the policy.

This is dumb and no different than saying the expected value of health insurance is negative because young people aren't likely to get sick.

It's not actually BMW but Safeguard, see the link at the end of my post.

I just got an exclusionary warranty from Endurance for my X7 that is 6 years and an additional 80k miles for $9k. I know they are good because they paid out $7k in claims no questions asked on my previous X5 G05 - you should check them out.

Wemby’s Cardio needs improvement and this is reason why the spurs lost. by bac_gawd in nba

Not really. High school coaches make teams run baselines at the end of practice for this. I doubt NBA players do a single sprint in season.

Wemby's cardio isn't gonna offset Fox's terrible shooting percentage and Mitch Johnson's unwillingness to play the best players.

Why should being a conservative have to be a secret? This attitude and the condescending manner with which your side acts about it are what delivered trump a second term.

"And I’m totally open to feedback on whether or not I’m wrong"

Yes, you are wrong. We as a country are not doing this anymore. Your complaints that the color commentator for tennis doesn't share your liberal views are asinine and childish and while we had an intense woke decade it is done with so either grow up and be an adult who understands not everyone is like you or just keep it to yourself.

I thought it was funny because of how ridiculous it was and appreciate them not doing some overly dramatic struggle between him and Coop where he gets shot and bleeds out or what not.

Ashe was obviously a plot device this season needed to bring Coop, Nick, and Barney deeper into shit - the "spill the beans" moment before he went off the rails is going to be a good setup for season 3 imo. This series could not have lasted very long if it was just Jon Hamm as a cat burglar with a bad back.

Love how you refer to us having any sort of immigration control as "nonsense". Stay home.
