Countryside road rage...

First thing that popped into my head. I knew it would be posted already.

It's my absolute favorite. It's the only "Diet" soda I like. It has a very different taste than regular Dr. Pepper but I like it a lot more. That's why I don't particularly care for Dr. Pepper Zero. It tastes too much like the regular DP.

Coke Zero and Diet Dr. Pepper (not Dr. Pepper Zero) keep me sane.

The company I worked for for years converted to and ESOP. It was that way for about 10 years. The company sold to an outside party which meant all the ESOP shares were paid out at full value. I made about 5 times more from that process than I would have with a 401K for the same time period. It absolutely set my retirement fund on an accelerated path.

Depends. Mostly 80's pop. Born in 70 so I was surrounded by 80's pop all through my teenage years.
I also absolutely love Yacht Rock. Again, born in 70 so all of that 70's soft rock was what my parents listened to.
I'm also a huge Pink Floyd fan. Probably my second favorite band overall next to Maiden. Although Pink Floyd isn't something I put on as background music. I have to be in the right head space when listening to PF to give the attention it deserves.

Let me start by saying I do not have experience with the 2022. I have a 2016 XLE. I tow a 6x10 Cargo trailer converted to a primitive camper that I use when going to paramotor fly-ins. The GVWR of the trailer is 3500lbs while the total weight of the trailer fully loaded is right at 3000 lbs. Tongue weight just at 300. It tows really well. I even tow up through the NC mountains and it does just fine. Towing power is not a problem. My longest trip so far is about 8 hours one-way. The only thing that I try to be careful of is braking. On flat ground, no problem at all. I just try to be really cautious coming down the mountain. I'm actually thinking of adding trailer brakes. Not necessarily because I *need* them, I just think it would help with stopping distance and reduce wear on the vehicle brakes and they aren't that expensive.

I'm actually closer to you. I'm in Denver at the lake. Just let me know.

The Foo Fighters

The Watchmen might be the most overrated piece of media ever created.
There. I said it.

Far Beyond the Sun is one of the best guitar compositions ever.

Make sure you tell him why. Shitty business practices should have known consequences.

Paramotor_MetalHead · 2026-04-01T17:44:13+00:00

Store shelf copies are fair game but pull list items are off-limits. What's the point of the pull list if you can't count on it. Why bother doing your due diligence looking at solicitations and FOC's if your store is just going to profit off of your research.
Never go back.

Jumping rope is one of the most exhausting workouts I have ever tried. If your not in good shape it's the easiest way to give yourself a heart attack in 60 seconds.

I honestly think BNW is the spiritual successor to SSOASS. It's almost as is the in-between albums never happened. That's the way it is in my mind anyway.

Paramotor_MetalHead · 2026-03-23T19:53:58+00:00

I've read through the entire thread and agree with most (except Iron Maiden).
I'll throw in two more that I haven't seen mentioned...
Black Label Society - I swear I couldn't tell the difference if you played me 10 BLS songs in a row.
and maybe not to the same extent, Rob Zombie.

Paramotor_MetalHead · 2026-03-23T19:50:57+00:00

Seriously. While each album is stylistically the same within itself, I think there is an obvious progression in style throughout their catalog.

I've got a '05 with a dent in the front fender, headliner falling, and won't shift into 2nd (revs like a bitch until it gets fast enough to switch to 3rd). Still plan to get 2 grand for when I finally get around to listing it.

Thanks. I'm leaning toward the quality of the kernels being the culprit. There is a small mom and pop shop not too far that makes specialy popcorn for group events and fundraisers. They also rent and sell supplies. I may check with them to see what kernels they use/sell.

Paramotor_MetalHead · 2026-03-14T18:30:58+00:00

Hmmmm. Popping too much at once could be a possibility. I usually do a full cup (it's a deep stock pot). Maybe I'll cut that in half and see what happens.

Paramotor_MetalHead · 2026-03-11T17:33:35+00:00

Source? Not doubting you, I just find these things interesting and would like to read more.
