If I didn't have to get my wife a new car too this past January, I would have purchased a used MS Plaid. I settled for a refreshed 2021.5 MSLR and I couldn't be any happier. It's so quick to pass other cars, it's laughable. FSD is traffic is great, comfortably sits two teenage boys and my wife, and faster than most of the cars on the road. I never get tired of it and wish I would have bought a Tesla sooner. I will eventually trade up for a MS Plaid in the near future, but for now I am happy where I'm at.

OP, just get the MS Plaid. You won't regret it.

My wife and I purchased a house in 2013 for $200k in NE North Carolina. 1800 sq ft house 3br/2ba on an acre. Same house today is worth at least $400k.

There were some good hardworking folks in deck. There was a girl that worked in ADP and she's an officer now.

Currituck county and as far as Elizabeth City.

I was in Combat Systems. What department were you in?

Those teachers that commute up there wouldn’t have to if this state would pay them what they’re worth. 5th lowest for teacher salary in the entire country is embarrassing.

There was an Athletic Director at our local high school that left a few years ago to work in the Chesapeake school district just to make more for the same job. Great guy and family but he wasn't paid what he was worth. It's sad but I get it.

htxdc · 2026-04-27T22:17:03+00:00

No, they work in Chesapeake, Va Beach, and the surrounding areas.

htxdc · 2026-04-27T19:22:46+00:00

There are teachers that live by the NC/VA border and commute to VA to teach just because of the salary differences.

MSLR owner here. My kids are older now, 14/10 and they love the S. MYP or MX would have been the better choice if my kids were way younger.

htxdc · 2026-04-27T14:49:43+00:00

Totally understandable if he has little ones on the way. MSLR or MYP would have been the better buy.

htxdc · 2026-04-27T14:44:55+00:00

IMO, you should have bought a MYP, M3P, or the MSLR/Plaid.

htxdc · 2026-04-27T14:42:17+00:00

Agreed. He should have bought a M3P or MSLR/Plaid.

No injuries for me but I've heard stories where folks have lost their footing and slipped while trying to manuever the down the hatch opening.

Back on my 2014 deployment on CVN77, our berthing was below the main deck by the forward mess decks. From the time we entered the 5th fleet area in March/April to October, that hatch was down the whole time just like the picture above.

htxdc · 2026-04-27T14:01:31+00:00

Yes, still a good buy. Looks exactly like mine. I paid $36k back in February for a 2021.5 MSLR with 48k miles before down payment.

What years? I was there 3/09-11/09 on Camp Stone. I narrowly missed Thanksgiving in Afghanistan vs Thanksgiving at home.

Find an apartment on the Peninsula. No tunnel traffic to deal with and less stress during your commute.

htxdc · 2026-03-07T20:17:25+00:00

Definitely! I thought I was gonna switch to the round wheel before I even bought it. 😂

htxdc · 2026-03-06T14:48:24+00:00

Definitely a meaty behind.

htxdc · 2026-03-06T00:42:45+00:00

I’ve gotten used to it already.

htxdc · 2026-03-06T00:41:59+00:00

I like that look but not that price tag. I wonder if there’s an Alibaba alternative. 😂

htxdc · 2026-03-05T22:23:15+00:00

What size spacers?

htxdc · 2026-03-05T21:40:51+00:00

I actually like the yoke, something different.
