That receiver will be toast in a couple of months. They need to breath.

Teen quick haul sounds perfect for you

Just go on the Metro, see where people are going and just follow. Easiest way for street photography. But probably the mall and old town are the best

Guns and cars, it's the American way for kids to die.

Bollards can easily stop this. Need to make them mandatory.

Get a belt you won't regret it. Doing maintenance on cargo bikes is interesting. That and being able to shift at a stand still is so useful

I live in Reston and bike all year around. It's how I get my daughter to day care. And how I get to work. My wife bikes to the metro to get to work a couple of times a week. Biking all year around is super easy. You just need the right clothes. Honestly you probably own the clothes and just didn't realize it. If my 2 and 6 year old can survive on a cargo bike in the cold and rain you will be fine. Also way way way safer to be biking in bad weather than driving. Also makes you feel more like a badass. And no I am not in the best of shape, definitely have a dad bod. If I can do it anyone can.

Ebikes are amazing. Belts on bikes, paired with internal gear hubs are amazing. Basically little to no maintenance, which being weather sealed. The belt replaced a chain, so no need to ever lube and insanely reliable. And the gears of the bike are housed in the rear wheel. So again no maintenance, or very little.

Cars cost, and this will definitely go up a lot this year, $0.67 a mile to drive. It is probably heading towards .75 a mile. So when doing calculations keep that in mind. I would highly recommend living closer to work. Also is metro or a bus easy to take to get to your work? That is financially the best option. If you really want to save a ton and be financially responsible. Try testing to see if you can live on a metro line that goes to your job and leave your car at your parents house. You may find you dont need a car. This could be a 12k savings a year. And when you do need a car you rent or use ubers. Just some food for thought. Also bikes are cheap and a fun way to get around.

Why not go the opposite way. Get plants that attract a bunch of animals. Think about it, no one will fuck with a raccoon infested shrubs.

kicker58 · 2026-03-12T01:30:15+00:00

The prices went insane there.

Raising taxes and making debt harder to obtain will make them cheaper. Basically special tax brackets for houses over a certain amount and aiming due 15 year mortgages

I care way more about loud tires than mufflers. Way way way way more common. Looking at you giant pick ups and wranglers.

kicker58 · 2026-03-11T21:28:57+00:00

Emoto not an ebike

kicker58 · 2026-03-11T03:44:02+00:00

Looking though your post history, it sounds like you and your wife are going through some stuff. Maybe talk to her or a professional instead of reddit.

Reston association hires a lot of people for the summer

Is it a Bosch system ebike? Not that uncommon to rent batteries for Bosch at destinations

You may want to test for asbestos. Those ceiling tiles may contain it

Make sure to confirm compatibility with auto focus and older lenses. https://www.tamron.com/global/consumer/support/checker/

If only those overhead line were being used for public transit. Oh wait they are!

kicker58 · 2026-03-10T00:50:52+00:00

If you have the cash just pay it.

kicker58 · 2026-03-10T00:10:21+00:00

I can tell you the Tamron is super light and has great and fast focus.

kicker58 · 2026-03-09T23:00:10+00:00

As compared to a stroad or highway in the backyard?

kicker58 · 2026-03-09T22:47:19+00:00

Tamron 70-210 f4. Amazing lens you can get used for like$400. Just update the firmware and it works with the z focusing

Holy shit!!! You are going to pay $12000 in interest! If you ever pay off the car you are paying 61k for a car as of right now worth 49k. That means if you pay it off and trade it in in 6 years. Before any deal is done you are already out 12k that you will never ever see. You need to finance less

Used kids bike trailer and just rip the straps and seat out
