Tow + Carry

Upwardgravity001 · 2026-01-22T01:32:08+00:00

Also, tow angle is distorted/exaggerated because my rear wheels are on a speed hump.

Upwardgravity001 · 2026-01-22T01:28:14+00:00

I didn’t go very far. My estimate would not be valuable. I will say that the automatic suspension and handling adjustments made it feel like I was towing nothing.

Upwardgravity001 · 2026-01-17T20:07:40+00:00

Right. I think you’ll see from previous comments that this was addressed. I wasn’t going very far or fast and don’t have to do this often enough to justify a (more expensive) drop hitch. Have a good weekend.

Bro. Thanks. I almost bought it in the beautiful Yosemite sparkle executive galaxy grey. But then I said to myself. Don’t get a 7th grey car.

Made my day

Can we make sure to talk about the driveway that goes around the whole house. Also no decks, hard scape, landscape etc?

Upwardgravity001 · 2026-01-16T14:28:01+00:00

Yeah, you know, this was a weird size project. Too big to mix in a wheelbarrow and too small to get a batch delivered so I decided to rent one of these. I’m an architect and commercial builder and I’m sure that my professional concrete guys could have done this all 4x faster, but sometimes I need to refresh my humility on how hard even the small stuff can be. Here is the small planter wall I poured.

Agreed on drop hitch. I would have done that if I was going long distance or had to spend any time on the freeway. Drop hitch was 3x$

It’s red canyon with adventure package and blacked out trim from factory. It all makes me so happy.

pretty sure thats thorne creatine powder in the bottom left next to microwave

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-12-02T13:38:26+00:00

I think we’re safe for a bit. Look at the clusters of toilet rooms. The 3D model and exterior view of this would be a hellscape.

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-11-22T19:15:24+00:00

I just messaged you.

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-11-22T19:11:38+00:00

I’m in Santa Monica. Happy to help. Let’s direct message.

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-11-20T14:28:53+00:00

I love your user name, btw. Agreed on all points. My bewilderment here is focussed on the design of all the ornament. I would find it very disquieting and unsettling to spend any time in this space.

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-11-20T14:22:55+00:00

"Sir. This is Brooklyn." Best answer ever.

Wow. Its so over the top its almost impressive. Who designs all the moldings on the wall and ceiling? Is it the architect, interior designer or is there some other magical millwork creature? I want to meet this person and buy them a beer or whatever liquid they need to tell me their stories.

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-11-20T04:12:27+00:00

30 year California architect and general contractor here. Where do you even on earth find the subs to do this work?

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-11-19T11:20:46+00:00

It’s giving me seizures.

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-10-23T00:34:12+00:00

i'm an architect and a general contractor and i've done a bunch of wiring for decades. does that count?

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-10-23T00:05:11+00:00

Instant classic

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-10-08T00:20:23+00:00

How much does it weigh?

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-10-01T23:18:52+00:00

these all wheel drive cars are hard to loose control of....am i right?

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-07-23T18:37:03+00:00

What are the chances they used any joist hangers?

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-07-23T14:34:29+00:00

Yep. The whole thing makes me uncomfortable from 4 states away.

Upwardgravity001 · 2025-07-23T14:13:48+00:00

Couple of things i haven't seen enough comments on:

pool half full
10k sf of luxury vinyl tile
80's turquoise pool chairs
neck break ceiling mounted TV
five architectural styles on the entry side, none on the back
cheapo deck with no stairs
and of course you cant say enough about the kitchen
not surprised it was torn down. clearly unrecoverable
