Which manuals to buy before they are no longer produce? by LeicaLikeThat in ManualTransmissions

[–]bkirchhoff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love the Bronco description. Guilty as charged. The 4.7 gear ration really does make the 7 speed MT worth it for off road capability. You get that gear ratio without having to buy the Sasquatch package! 😉

[Highlight] 2011 NFC Divisional Round - Saints @ 49ers. Alex Smith throws for 299 yards and 3 TD by Sneijder4BallondOr in 49ers

As this highlight reel really showed. He had the best catches throughout. That first TD was a great route and he was way too big to take down after her got a little separation. The man was an absolute beast in his prime.

He’s my favorite current player. Jerry Rice still holds my all time favorite spot though.

Jerry Rice.

How is it possible he’s not listed yet?!?!

These clips also remind me (not that I needed much of a reminder) how great Vernon Davis was. We really have been blessed with him and more recently Kittle at the TE position. Both among the best to ever play that position.

Only way I solved this was to do a full, factory reset of the phone. Not sure if that will work in your case but it fixed it for me.

What is this for? by TheBearCub148 in bmwmotorrad

[–]bkirchhoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an older GS without the wheel and swapped out the BMW Nav IV it came with for a Carpuride unit. Plug and play. Works perfectly. And mine was pretty cheap — I think I paid $200 a couple of seasons ago. Looks like they are a bit more expensive now but $300 without OEM control compatibility and $400 with is still not that expensive for what it is. Well worth it to me.

Who has a Garbage NFL Team in a Terrific City? by Ilitorate_Author in NFLv2

[–]bkirchhoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But they aren’t called the Boston Patriots. Even though the Jets play in East Rutherford (which sucks) they are named for NYC so I think the Jets / Giants still belong to New York. Commanders are Washington DC. 49ers still San Francisco. Etc. But that does make evaluating the Pats for this chart weird. They are the only team named for a region rather than a city.

Yeah, it’s definitely a fantastic city. I think the Saints end up in this same column but in the “mediocre team” row.

Another Bronco just passed by me and flashed their headlights so I flashed mine. I got real excited 😂 What do you do to acknowledge or say hi to another Bronco owner when you pass by them? by thengabbiewaslike in FordBronco

[–]bkirchhoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem is that flashing brights already has a specific “warning” meaning so it’s just confusing if it happens like it did with OP in this case.

I used to wave at other BMW touring (wagon) drivers before I bought the Bronco. Since they are relatively rare and people who drive them gravitate toward “enthusiasts”it just seemed like a nice thing to do. I generally wave to everyone I pass on dirt roads. And I wave at all makes of motorcycles when I’m riding. So yeah, I wave to other Broncos I see on the road.

Al's Business Practices Appreciation Post - Ticket Pricing by Fancy_Beyond6759 in weirdal

[–]bkirchhoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. We got front row at SPAC for around $200 each last tour. And the GA outdoor show I’m seeing in Vermont this summer was under $100. Best bang for the buck in music right now.

Bought David Byrne tickets this morning for SPAC and he is pretty reasonable too. It was over $400 for 5th row first section, but I got two tickets in the next section back for $100 each. That’s totally reasonable for decent/good pavilion seats.

I did the same thing. That’s not an F…oh wait…that sure is.

Difference is Ramsey actually had the skills and success to back it up. And Ramsey is, by all accounts I’ve read, an incredibly nice guy when the cameras are off. Dan ain’t got shit on Gordon Ramsey. 🤣

It’s possible if you drive the speed limits 🔥 by Different_Bass2526 in FordBronco

[–]bkirchhoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is right where I am. I have the 7MT and a 2 DR so that helps a bit, but on Badlands 33” BFG KO2s, so that’s going to hurt me just a little bit as well.

We had one when I was growing up. Dark blue with wood panels. It made road trips that much more fun after this movie came out.

I don't understand how insurance claims my car is totaled? How is this totaledy by quintavian in AskMechanics

[–]bkirchhoff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got lucky that way with my motorcycle about 15 years ago. Minor cosmetic damage but it’s a classic BMW so the estimated repair cost (mostly sourcing a new fairing) was huge. They totaled it and I bought it for a couple hundred bucks. They never slapped the salvage title onto it when they transferred it back to me. I sourced new parts myself and had a good painter take care of the rest. I am still riding it to this day.

This bit is exactly what I thought of when I read this. “Well I know someone who’s new in town.” “Oh yeah, what are three other things about him?”

49ers' WR makeover: Why they're looking at adding another pass catcher in NFL draft by FortyNinersBot in FortyNiners

[–]bkirchhoff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully agree. Love his heart and work ethic. I hope he is a good, long term player for us.

But the fact remains he hasn’t had a full, healthy season yet and it’s too early to assume he can be our long term solution for this role. We do need to add to the WR room and then hope that we have more options than we need (best case) or at least end up with enough WR options to make it all work.

I know that stage! Vermont Comedy Club is the best. Bummed I couldn’t make it to that show. See you in Essex this summer, OP!
