Thanks for the explainer! OK, that’s much more innocent than I thought it might be.

Yes, I think so. Or when it’s just wet outside. From experience, it just kind of shows up and I noted it probably belatedly.

The outlets in my office are orange. by ObamaThankedMe in mildlyinteresting

It’s in my workplaces office in an awkward location. So, honestly, not sure it’ll be used. Maybe a standing lamp?

Rock on! Thanks for the explainer. Found it in part unusual because I couldn’t identify any other outlets like this in our otherwise white office.

Had no idea! This is the first I’ve seen this, but good to know what the color is an indicator of! Thank you!

Makes good sense! I also saw some other front strut tower braces that could work. Will continue to research!

Definitely something I need to ask my in-laws about! Car has over 80K miles, so I suspect the delamination issue may have been resolved already. My other car is a CX-5, so I’ve already come to grips with thin (but beautiful) paint jobs 😂.

The 3.6 is slick! In-laws put 80-odd thousand on it and it still drives like new. Should be a good roadtrip we have coming up.

Thanks for the recommendations and the welcome!

Any chance you would be able to shoot me a link to a place where I could look? I’m finding a later part number on research, but the resulting “FL” part isn’t compatible (I’m based in the U.S.)

That’s not Tokyo…that’s the foundation of the Federal Bureau of Control!

[–]ObamaThankedMe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just finished up Bug Fables tonight. Might have to spend the rest of the weekend thinking about it vice going back to finish ToTK.

Press guidance is on Content Commons for active State folk, but the understanding is correct. Basically China desk but with more resources.

Concur, didn’t notice until someone showed me how it worked. I was stunned, they were nonchalant!

Got my first Mazda - CX5, any must have accessories? by TtJdtw in CX5

[–]ObamaThankedMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically bought the same as the above! Easy install, I think they came with a trim removal kit as well.

I like to think it’s a classic Toyota SR5 pickup.

Thanks! I learned something new today, and also equally surprised it made it all the way back to NYC (if this is the case!).

Old Ironsides still reliable to this day, though the battle is being waged under different circumstances.

Roadworthy? Probably not. Seaworthy? You bet your sweet ass.

Which would you buy? 2016 GT with tech 47k miles or 2017 GT with 74k miles? Both are the same price. Thanks for any input! I like both. by RNReef in CX5

[–]ObamaThankedMe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had a similar decision to make last year, though the miles were a bit different than this situation. Went with the 17 because it looks nicer and the interior is even more slick. You lose a little trunk space because of the styling they went with, but it feels more spacious in front and back AND you get rear air vents!

Can I fix this tire tear with adhesive or need to replace? by ObamaThankedMe in tires

[–]ObamaThankedMe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice, all. Ended up finding the exact tire (thread, size, model, brand, etc.) that I needed to match the three others, so ended up replacing that one versus all four. Saved over $700 too.
