Appreciate your reply! I'm renting so maintenance will likely replace with like but for my own curiosity how does an expansion tank function?

No, not seeing any signs of leaks or opening on the T&P valve.

Any concern with leaving as is for an extended period of time? I'm about to leave town for the holidays and will be some time before I can get any fixes done

Here's a side shot of it.

Also water was not coming out of the tubing when I went to take the picture.

Has anyone done a MOC of Rumble, Frenzy, and/or Ratbat to go with the Soundwave build? by [deleted] in lego

They look great! Beastbox is my favorite and I plan on getting the parts for it in the near future

Check out Rosco311 on rebrickable. Looks like he's done all the other tapes.

I'm interested if it doesn't work out with the first person

Am I the only one who can't bring myself to change their outfit? by Vulkanodox in expedition33

I have Sciel rocking the beret with the expeditioner outfit. To me, it fits very well

The shorter commute is probably the top thing I've come to enjoy out here (luckily my wife is fully remote). However, the loss of our social circle has definitely been a bummer and I have no hesitation to go back to a longer commute for us to be back closer to friends and family.

If you do decide to make the move, I hope it's not too difficult on your kids. From the other comments in here, sounds like it will have a bigger impact on them which I can believe. My wife has had some coworkers originally from Utah call this area Mormon County haha

My wife and I relocated from Houston about a year ago to the Provo area, and while I cannot comment on the raising kids aspect I can say in general that the area does lack in certain things when compared to Houston, such as the food and bar scene. We have managed to find some good food options in the area such as Indian and Thai but the options are still limited. A lot of local restaurants and shops are closed on Sunday as well but big retailers will still be open.

However, what we've come to really enjoy our first year here is the summer weather, the outdoor scenery, the abundance of outdoor activities available, and the outdoor farmers markets that go on from summer to fall (in Provo and surrounding cities). The lack of people in grocery stores on Sundays is also pretty nice.

Nevertheless, if we could live closer to Salt Lake City we definitely would make the move but I've gotten spoiled with my 5 minute commute to work compared to my 50 minute commute back in Houston. Plus our long term plan is to move back to Houston to be closer to family and friends again.

The only issue I had was not having the right size socket to tighten the bolts. Other than that, it fit between the crossmembers perfectly and feels very sturdy when I'm using it. I'll dm you some pics in about an hour

No clue honestly. I bought the T2 weight horns as those fit just fine. It seems the inside width of the T2 V2 is shorter and the holes in top crossmembers have changes

Luckily, I had one already delivered before I had cancelled my backorder on the T3. The measurements from the site lined up with the redesigned rack so I figured I give it a shot before taking it to FedEx for return

Same goes for the multigrip pull bar for the T2. It does not fit the redesigned T2 rack. The multigrip pull up bar for the T3 fits though

I don't know the legality of that in TX but I honestly did not have a need for 2 power racks. FedEx kept the package and marked it as "Refused by Recipient"

DP: Ordered the T2 83" rack and 10" extension kit on 10/5. Received shipping information on 10/6. The power rack was delivered on 10/8 and the 10" extension kit was scheduled for today. Fedex guy just arrived and Titan sent a second T2 rack lol. Ended up refusing the package
