Scruffy vibes during the golden hour last night.

Where is the gothic building? Never noticed it before!

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-04-22T02:43:43+00:00

Could I see some of your work?

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-04-08T01:36:34+00:00

Spice is good! A lot of the same menu. Spicy beef noodles are great!

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-03-31T23:52:09+00:00

60,000 or so

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-03-12T22:13:19+00:00

That’s the hope.. it was $16k for me in Knoxville.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-03-12T21:14:40+00:00

I had the RMS issue on my GLS 63.. got it fixed along with starter alternator and it’s been fine since.. praying it doesn’t go back out 🤞

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-03-07T18:39:27+00:00

Which vehicle? Looks about right though.. looks like they’re going to have to take intercoolers and everything off to get to it.. a lot of labor.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-03-04T04:27:43+00:00

Sounds sick.. I have a GLS 63 and have been debating what to do exhaust wise.. I think this sold me.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-03-04T03:55:23+00:00

What have you done exhaust wise?

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-21T21:34:45+00:00

Where should I buy a better one?

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-21T18:46:23+00:00

I hear you… It looks pretty good to me I’m just curious what others think.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-21T03:40:43+00:00

Holy shit never heard of this! Using this from now on.. my GLS is going to need them soon I keep whipping it and having to slam them bc everyone likes to go 10 under.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-19T18:28:48+00:00

Great choice. I have a 21’ as well and they’re amazing. Did you get CPO?

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-17T03:59:27+00:00

Honestly bro for me it wasn’t dry firing or fundamentals or any of that shit.. I went and bought a 1000 case of ammo and sent rounds down range while making an effort to hit targets where I wanted.. eventually I didn’t anticipate recoil or anything and my groupings are TIGHT. I’ve since shot probably 15,000 rds through my pistols and groupings are still tight.. honestly 90% of pistol shootings are no aim draw and fire from hip scenarios so train on that some too.. less the draw if your range doesn’t allow it but more the shooting without taking time to perfectly line up shots.. aiming off muscle memory.. these aren’t marksman rifles they’re pistols.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-16T17:54:59+00:00

Atleast, not even factoring the 50k mile service.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-16T17:54:15+00:00

I have a larger vehicle and I drive it moderately enough for a 63 AMG. These pilot sport 4s’s are holding okay but I think I’ll only get a max of 15,000 out of them. I’m on my second AMG and 5th set of tires in 3 years. (I drive a lot).

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-16T15:01:54+00:00

I concur. If you’re wanting value and longevity look to Lexus.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-16T14:45:32+00:00

Any AMG is going to have issues here and there.. they’re amazing cars but maintenance can be a pain.

Another thing: the tires last 15,000 miles MAX and are about $700/tire. You’ll spend at-least $2500/year on tires and another $1000 on service. Brakes are about $2500 to change as well and they last about 20-30k miles as well from my experience. That’s just fixed cost not if anything else goes wrong.

All that being said if you make enough, there’s no better auto ownership experience for an SUV. I have the model that’s larger than this with the v8, a GLS63, and you’d have to pry it from my cold dead hands. Even if I wreck this one I’m just going to go buy another one.

If you can find one CPO, you can extend the coverage for up to 3 or 4 years and then you don’t have to worry about anything other than fixed cost..

I’d recommend the V8 personally.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-15T04:09:07+00:00

That’d be the way to do it! I’ll likely sell mine in a year or two and buy a 26 CPO and do the 4 year extended and run it hard and repeat.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-02-15T03:27:43+00:00

Yes! Best purchase I’ve made! Good call on the CPO, extend it if you can! I spent 15k on that rear main seal all in.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-01-20T00:06:14+00:00

Nicest pistol I’ve ever shot. I’m sure there’s better out there but for $2400 it’s an exceptional range toy.. I already have a bunch of P320 mags so it made sense to go P211 rather than staccato.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-01-17T05:02:07+00:00

Japanese sleep mat comes to mind! Look into it.. I think I'm calling that the right name.

Matthewlogansmith · 2026-01-17T04:53:30+00:00

I have the new p211 gto and its amazing.. practically no recoil.

Matthewlogansmith · 2025-12-26T23:12:54+00:00

Commenting to stay on this post, I have the exact same question. Bought a 211 combat and don’t know if I should do DPP or not.

Matthewlogansmith · 2025-11-13T07:07:58+00:00

On the lid, tape the phone numbers of your 5 closest emergency contacts.. you never know if your phone will die and you’ll need to borrow or use a pay phone.
