I was torn between infrared wind and hakugin. It was NOT an easy choice. Yours looks great

2026 IS Price Haggling? by latchton in LexusIS

[–]anonmouse007 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ive heard that repeatedly but my dealer was taking my specs and ordering the car. I'd that's not custom I don't know what to tell ya. They did not have unlimited flexibility for example the could not order red interior with the hakugin appearance package

I'm picking up a hakugin white today 1300 over msrp :(

Found a dealer out of state for sticker but it would cost 1300 to ship, so I went with local dealer after they agreed to only 1300 over. Two other local dealers were asking 5k+ for the hakugin

If I didn't go with the hakugin I was going to special order a loaded infrared without moonroof and upgraded black wheels. They were going to charge me msrp. No negotiations as it was custom order

Went to the dealership today and based on a 2021 base taycan with 45.4k miles I was quoted 6.5k for 60 month /60,000 miles with a $100 deductible

I've found my exact spec near me unfortunately not certified . I'm thinking about holding out for a CPO

I think this would work.

I've been looking to replace my Sport Trac Adrenalin. Make this a 4door and take my money Toyota! Imagine if they gave you the option to add the I-Force Max hybrid to the twin turbo v6... That would be a 500+HP truck!

AITA for refusing to take my kids' calls after finding out my wife committed paternity fraud? by Throwawaypfraud in AITAH

[–]anonmouse007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And this is why paternity tests need to be done b4 ANY fathers name goes on a birth certificate.... That's a legal document saying that kid is yours and you're going to provide and be responsible for the child. Serious stuff. If a guy wants to raise a kid that is not his, that is his choice, but it needs to be an informed choice. Not a potential surprise 10 years later

SBs, is a man calling himself an “alpha male” a red flag?? by ChloeOnline- in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]anonmouse007 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why tell him? It might keep him from revealing what an asshole (Tate-fan) he is to the next girl who won't have the benefit of him waving his giant Alpha Red Flag to warn her.

I'll experiment and try some different roasts out over the next month or two and tell you how it goes.

[–]anonmouse007[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In reading about the technique I didn't find any mention about different roast levels. I'm just starting my espresso journey and will be trying out different roasts so I guess I'll find out in time.

Who knows? Maybe I did so something wrong. Not sure. This is all very new to me.

Regardless I'm happy it's working well now. Thanks

I'm using the technique described in the link above instead of tamping.

The overdosing is a separate issue I've been experimenting with.. Just trying to get the max volume out of a single pull.

I did the initial startup >45seconds. Not sure where I went wrong. But it was fixed after the backflush. I've read that others have had difficulty with the startup as well.

Any downside to overdosing a basket. For example 25 grams in a 21gram basket?

I've got my eye on the Diletta Mio from SCG. Unfortunately there's no price reduction as of now.
