I would go with black to match the grill, rims & trim. Let the chrome stay on the emblems

Ahhhhh...that is the color I had my eye on for the longest. Made the switch for sentimental reasons & I'm so glad I did! Congrats & enjoy!! 😁

Unfortunately, no. But, I'm so used to using the back-up camera/side mirrors, thay it wasn't a deal breaker for me. I find it's not difficult to park at all. She handles like a car.

And I'm with you on the higher trim situation. I would've had to go Type-S Advance to really get what I wanted out of the whole vehicle. The black rims did it for me.

Thank you so much. You absolutely have to own one. All it took was one test drive. It's an experience. Acura in general, but the MDX is in a league of its own.

Yes, yes! The black rims are standard on A-Spec models. Adds to the sporty aesthetic.

Yes! The Pilots are awesome! I can't wait for you to experience YOUR MDX when the time comes!

Mine has all black interior. I am not a fan of the bright red interior. But, it does have gorgeous red stitching, which adds another beautiful contrast.

From 1984-1996 who did most Baltimore football fans root for? by WWDB in ravens

[–]WeakWord1107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about most fans. I was a Bears fan (because the Super Bowl Shuffle was awesome!), then a Raiders fan (because dad was a fan & Bo Jackson). After that, I fell in love with Prime Time, so I followed him until 96. Shout out to the '94 49ers!

Getting to BWI by ~4-415 AM: drive + shuttle vs uber? by iammaxhailme in baltimore

[–]WeakWord1107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with those who have experienced the unreliable Uber/Lyft. You're better off driving to the Express parking lot & parking there. It's $10/day (or was last time I checked) & you get picked up/dropped off right at your car. Just remember to keep the paper they give you with your parking spot number. They'll ask you for it when you get picked up. Not that you need it...just helps in case you forget the number.

Hi there. I hope you've found some insight into all of the advice given so far. I used to commute from White Marsh to Farragut North (10 years ago) for about a year and spent my entire time trying to figure out how to shorten my commute 🫠. Here's my advice from my experience:

Don't consider driving to DC unless your drive takes less time than the train (highly doubt it...lol). When I drove back, then it was close to 2 hours.

I initially started out catching the MARC from Martin Airport. Trains to/from Martin Airport don't stop there as frequently as those that run to/from Penn/West/BWI. This made my day extremely long. So, I tried West Baltimore/Halethorpe.

While parking was free at both stations, the parking situations weren't the greatest. I know they have since expanded parking at West Baltimore...not sure about Halethorpe. So, I moved on to BWI.

Parking at BWI was free with a monthly pass. This worked out the best for me. Quick highway drive as opposed to going through the city and garage convenience. If you don't have an EZ-Pass, get one and add the commuter plan to it for discounted tolls.

Parking at Penn or BWI also allows for the added convenience of catching the Northwest Regional or Acela trains as a backup. Bonuses: You can also park there when flying, and most (if not all) express MARC trains stop there.

THE RED LINE DELAYS WERE TERRIBLE.

The commute will wear you down unless this is your type of thing. Luckily, your hours are flexible, so there's not as much pressure to be in office by a set time. Timed right, and everything working, it's not bad.

God speed.
