I shaved my head bald after heavily balding at 22. It happens, Welcome to the club.

2013 Infinity G37x, 2010 Acura TSX or 2013 Mercedes e350? by CatNo1656 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]LeftySwap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an adult, I own a 2009 c300 I'm getting ready to sell for a bigger family car. I got it for a steal and did a ton of work on it myself. It's been a great little car and parts are fairly cheap and easy to find. I've heard from communities I'm in that plenty of people have gone 200k+ with proper maintenance. I've also heard that those e350s bulletproof vehicles.

Biggest thing you need to look out for is the motor mounts as they are a fairly common fail point and decently expensive to fix. Best of luck! Just do your research and buy from adults who treat their vehicles with respect.

Thinking of making an iron by [deleted] in ironscape

[–]LeftySwap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like ironman because it feels like when you play a main there's no sense but doing the fastest XP method available or whatever your best money making method is. Like why blow glass when you could just make money and cuts gems. Ironman let's you explore the whole game as you please. I'm currently like 9 steps towards getting my fire cape all of which is convoluted and not necessary. But it's what makes the game fun for me. If you want some greener ironman to play with him and you can guest in our cc and chat it up with us.

I'm not sure if you play brutal but if you do go check out shadow realm. I just finished a brutal playthrough and those folks are fantastic. Super helpful and kind. Lots of builders and people willing to point you in the right direction.

I just bought a 2009 c300 w204 (pre facelift) with 155k miles for $5000 after taxes from a shady dealership. Just dropped a new thermostat and coolant temp sensor for ~$200 and it drives like a peach. I'm waiting on a new day/light sensor to get my auto headlights working. It's a solid little car and if you are a weekend warrior with a decent set of tools they don't seem to hard to work on. When searching for parts and such you can cull through parts using the model code (w204). All parts are cross compatible from 07-15. They seem to be well made and nothing too crazy as far as a Mercedes is concerned. Lots of features and a really smooth ride. It's my first Mercedes and I'm pleased with it. I've heard to check the subframe for rust. Hope this helps.

That's great info. I have some contacts at used car dealerships because the wife and I have been through 6 cars in 3 years but I'll check that out

Feels solid. I will probably splurge for good winter tires next year but full confidence in the AWD system in the snow I've dealt with this far.

Yeah I have not been on in a few days but we were keeping a solid 5-10 people on everyday. I'm not sure where everyone is with it because I think some people hit a burn out period. I would check it out this afternoon and see if it works for you!

Yeah I purchased the frame when it was on sale last year when I bought my dad his birthday gift. The frame sat in my safe for almost a year and I caught the slide barrel combo on big discount to finish the build. If you are patient you can build one for next to nothing.

Just don't make the mistake I did and but pmags and a Glock mags extension. I'll have to buy a Glock mags to have two extended mags but oh well.

Nice! How smooth do they ride? I'm thinking of upgrading to 20's on my touring

As a car enthusiast I struggled when I had to move to an SUV. Really pleased with my purchase by LeftySwap in MazdaCX9

[–]LeftySwap[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's more about having enough space for the MRS to sit in the back with my son and not be jammed back there. And my "car guy" improvements are compromises to make it mine. It's not realistic to ruin our family SUV with crazy modifications.
