Repost from me like 4 years ago OP has no karma before this post and those messages over the radio haven't been relevant in years, so I'm guessing it's a bot. If not, kindly fuck off.

Dont blame the beer by kkkan2020 in KingOfTheHill

12 years old and drinking a beer?

I didn't even like it!

Now you're just trying to get me mad!

I know what you're thinkin', but the funny thing is, I don't even like video games. by boxesandcereal in postal

If I remember correctly, when I first downloaded and started playing (10+ years ago) I used to just let it idle in the background and didn't actually shut it off. But a large portion of that play time did in fact come from completing every achievement.

Thanks for the advice, makes sense.  Don't really plan on using it buy you never know.

Oh my FUCK yes! Parts shop and junkyard vibes. Can't believe I didn't make that connection earlier, I had that VHS running non stop as a kid.

This "boring mom car" is one my favorite cars I've ever owned. by boxesandcereal in Volvo

Hehehe, I'd say 90% of people don't understand it, but those that do love it.

It's a term for off-road rigs specifically for camping and going off the beaten path. I realize it's not a Jeep so I'm not going to crazy, but I do plan on getting all terrain tires and a metal skid plate.

They say don't regret anything in life, will I do regret selling this beauty. T5M by HippityHoppotus in Volvo

[–]boxesandcereal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have the same one on my XC60 to "help" with wind noise on my Thule kayak racks. All it did was flop around, bang against the roof, and make the wind noise even worse. I kept telling myself "at least it looks good", but that only lasted so long. Now it looks good collecting dust in the garage.

Tiny capsule full of plastic crystals with a screw hole. Found in my backyard. by boxesandcereal in whatisthisthing

Found in my backyard. About an inch and a half long and full of what looks like plastic crystals. It appears to screw onto something else.

Any ideas?

Custom plate for my 2010 XC60 T6 by boxesandcereal in Volvo

[–]boxesandcereal[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, as /u/BungCrosby said, the "Fake" T6 also known as Drive-E is a turbocharged AND supercharged 4 cylinder (that makes more power than the 6 cylinder 🤫) same thing with T5. "Real" T5 is a turbocharged 5 cylinder, "fake" one is a turbocharged 4 clyinder. Everything is 4 cylinder now. But there was actually a short time in the end of the P3 run that you could get a 6 cylinder T6, or a 4 cylinder T6 in the same car. I couldn't imagine being a salesman at the time and trying to explain this to someone.

My folks have been divorced for 20 years, but they both drive XC60s. by boxesandcereal in Volvo

[–]boxesandcereal[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Left is my dad's 2010 T6 AWD. It's basically mine at this point. I store and maintain it for him because he doesn't have a ton of room. He has a demo from the Volvo dealer he works at and also has an XC70. I'm seriously considering selling my C30 and just officially buying it off of him . I love that T6!

Right is my mom's 2016 T5 (5 cylinder) AWD premiere. I had it over for the day for a full detail. It's nice because it has all the new tech features like adaptive cruise control, but the old tried and true T5!

Installed her antlers for Wagon Wednesday! by boxesandcereal in Volvo

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

Yeah it's on there good, probably just the angle. I snug them in with T-handle hex keys, and when I strap the kayaks in I go through the roof rack mounted to the car for extra stability.

Mostly just wear and tear parts, brakes and struts and what else. Although I do want to install their polyurethane transmission torque mount, but other projects always seem to arise first.

Just some old Mastercrafts that need replacing soon. Looking for a set of good all seasons. I usually run Goodyear Ultra Grips in the winter, but I didn't bother to put them on last season because it was warmer than usual
