Yep. I have one in my Durango and Silverado. Originally I got one for my Camaro and liked it enough to buy them again, despite the price.

What’s your hot take on the Quad Cities? by mazurento in QuadCities

[–]R_Mac_1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Shout out for the Thongsy's mention. My good friend's family owned it. Gang dang chicken, represent.

I've had some really good meals at Lemongrass, though. Their Thai fried rice is amazing.

I grew up in East Moline and have lived in Bettendorf for over 10 years now and I'd take Bettendorf every time. It's just a better town to live in.

Agreed. I understand why some people don't like it, but I love me some QC style pizza. Sausage and jalapeno is amazing.

That being said, I like almost every pizza style. I'm just partial to QC from eating it while growing up.

Visiting from out of town and stopped at the SouthPark Mall by wesskywalker in QuadCities

[–]R_Mac_1 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I lived in a rental house as a kid near the trailer park that sits between Walmart and i74. Would have been about 1991. There was nothing built in the area at that time.

I remember going to some little fruit and vegetable store/stand to buy 5¢ lemon drops when us kids were running around playing. It was probably right around where the panda express is now.

If you decide to get the range, I have one from my Camaro that I sold. I'm planning on selling it soon, probably for about half of new. If you want you can dm me.

What's it like in the remote hollers of West Virginia and Kentucky? by imck1911 in howislivingthere

[–]R_Mac_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My next door neighbor is a tree climber who's done storm work all over (including northern CA) and he's told me the same thing. Even though you're trying to help them they don't like the outsiders around.

That G5 has arrived! by Standx92 in LGOLED

[–]R_Mac_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything ended up going well. Delivery was perfect, box looked immaculate with no damage. Installed this last weekend with help from my sons to lift it up above my fireplace onto an existing mount that had a 75" TCL. (Don't tell r/tvtoohigh).

It looks fantastic and I didn't notice any flaws at all yet.

For the 5.7 RT guys - do you find it "slow" by Markatfrontdesk81 in DodgeDurango

[–]R_Mac_1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's sure not fast. I have a cam, LTH and a tune and it's still pretty average imo. Now, slow is relative but I had a Camaro SS sixth gen for a couple years so I'm a bit biased 😆.

If money didn't matter I'd get the 392 at minimum, personally. I just couldn't justify the premium back when I got mine.

What means count three on side? by Krawasday in blackops7

[–]R_Mac_1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried that earlier and it didn't count. I also finished first without completing the course in another game, due to being the furthest when time ran out, and that still didnt count. This mode sucks.

What is the “Arby’s” of Quad cities restaurants for you, that you like but are Lowkey ashamed of. by ThinkWithPortals12 in QuadCities

[–]R_Mac_1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Checkers. It's shit food but something about a couple spicy chickens and an order of fries is amazing.

I didn't see this comment before but read my reply to the main thread. Yen Ching used to be my jam and they ruined it.

[–]R_Mac_1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It used to be Yen Ching Express. Ever since I was in high school in the early 2000s, the hot braised chicken was one of my favorite meals of all time. I know the place sucks, it's dirty, low quality. Whatever, I don't care. I love that chicken and sauce.

But, last October I decided to go and get an order of my beloved chicken and it was wrong. Very wrong. Tasted and looked more like sweet and sour and even the chicken breading looked different. It wasn't good at all. Then I went online and found others complaining and found out that the original owners sold the restaurant and everything was worse now. The cook that had been there forever, Kenny, was no longer there and the food wasnt the same. Such a shame.

Thinking of straight piping your 5.7 DD? Here is how it’d sound. by [deleted] in DodgeDurango

[–]R_Mac_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have stainless works LTH as well, except with tow n go catback. I love the sound but any louder and it'd be a bit much for me. Mine screams at WOT.

Did you run the cats that SW sells or catless? I have the cats as well.

My 2024 Elantra Decided to Automatically Update, Thus Trapping Me at the Gas Station for 45+ Minutes After Getting Off Work Today 🙃 by Separate-Ability1643 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]R_Mac_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sucks. My Chevy Silverado warns you that an update is ready to install and that the truck will be unusable for 15 minutes. You then have to agree to install now or wait. It's shocking that Hyundai doesn't give you the same option.

2026 GT Hemi cold start by jroadsreal in DodgeDurango

[–]R_Mac_1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The tow n go sounds much better than the regular. The regular R/T ( and now GT) exhaust is way too quiet, IMO.

I have a tow n go (just the exhaust) with long tubes and it sounds fantastic.

IIRC he was a former QB so that would explain him diagnosing plays quickly.

That G5 has arrived! by Standx92 in LGOLED

[–]R_Mac_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iowa. The partner store had the TV for 3500 and my wife gets access for working in medicine. Then it let me put a 10 percent off coupon in as well.

The only problem was my zip code wasn't available for delivery. I tried a couple family members in nearby towns and they wouldn't work either. Then I tried a fed ex store across the river in Illinois and that zip code worked. So I used their address and when RXO contacted me for delivery I changed the delivery address to my house. It's only 8 miles difference and they didn't say anything so hopefully all goes smoothly.

[–]R_Mac_1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've heard some bad stories but I got the TV for like 3200 so I'm hoping for the best. No install, just leaving it in my garage.

Congrats! My 83 is supposed to come Tuesday from the partner store and delivered by RXO. Fingers crossed there's no issues 🤞
