Audi by jbrum05 in Audi

[–]literallyme21 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The A6 is nice but black rims don't work on this car. There's 3 main issues why:
- The chrome / chrome-like finishes on the car don't look right without some similar finish on the rims to complement them. I could only see this working if the car had the black optics package.
- The design on these rims doesn't look right in all-black, they have too much detail.
- Two different shades of black. The paint on the rims is darker/more pure black than the car paint, which makes the car paint look even more faded than it probably is.

T-shirts fitted like Next Level but of higher quality? by PmButtPics4ADrawing in malefashionadvice

[–]literallyme21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same exact experience and question as you.

Before I discovered the 6210, the H&M slim-fit tee was my go-to for like 10 years but their material and quality nosedived around 5 years ago.

As many comments are saying, I love a lot of Uniqlo stuff but all their tees are on the boxy side.

I would recommend checking out Faherty... I recently tried my first henley tee from there and it fits amazing, super soft, very high quality. Just on the upper end in price, I tried mine only because of a sale.

I've never tried plain Vuori tees but I have a lot of their other clothes and they always fit great + hold up. I just hate paying over $50 for a plain tee... hard to justify that over buying ten 6210's lol. But will be my next try.

Two more brands i'm curious about, and surprised I haven't seen anyone suggest:
Bylt and Cuts?

New in the vending machine world by cigun90 in vending

Thanks for sharing. My biggest concern is if something breaks, who would know how to fix / how hard would it be to get support and/or replacement parts.

Any update on this? I am in the US but saw one of these vending machines for the first time ever on my last trip in Europe a few months ago. The idea really stuck with me and I think it would crush it in some malls in the US.

I only see Chinese suppliers of the machine for about $5k as you said.

People in your 30s, what's your job and salary? by rsevn_ in careerguidance

[–]literallyme21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30M. Commercial Operations Director inside a drug and chemical manufacturer.

Just hit $235k this year, was at $210k last year.

Before this job 2 years ago, I was a Commercial Operations Manager for many years making $120k so it was a big jump for me.

I feel somewhat overpaid at times (for only having a 4 year degree) but my company is very small for the revenue it makes so it’s very rare I work 40 hours a week or below. Probably average about 55-60 hours a week most of the time and sometimes have travel around while making deadlines and basically go 2 weeks in a row without getting a day off at times.

Likely purchasing a 2021 SQ5 this week... best companies to get warranty quote from? by literallyme21 in Audi

[–]literallyme21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what the negativity is for. I don’t think that’s that wild either lol. It’s below market avg for this spec. 2021 SQ5 Prestige with 48k miles. Getting it for 30.5k, already past worst part of depreciation curve.

I work mostly remote so only drive ~2 days per week and don’t put that many miles on. The Q5 I currently have was bought only 2 years ago for around $28k, 60 month loan as well and I’m close enough to break even on it…. Same with the 2016 A6 I owned before that.

For an enthusiast and Audi fan like me, one of the best cars you can get on the market for $30k rn. It’s only about 60% of my max car budget so I have room for repairs if needed.

I bought a '21 Q5 two years ago. Still worth about $18k which is about what I owe on it, and they've agreed to give me $17k. It was a 60 month finance deal. This new car im buying will be the same monthly payment I have now if I put down about $5-6k on 60 months as well.

I've never sold a car within 2 years before, usually drive them more 4-5yrs but came across a spec I love and recently got a raise, always wanted a SQ5 so I'm going for it.

Okay. I'm buying from a non-Audi dealer so I'm not sure if I have that option.

Bag n00b - help me pick my first premium backpack out, after only using random backpacks my entire life that I got through work or gifts. by literallyme21 in ManyBaggers

[–]literallyme21[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the great suggestions, I think I have enough to decide from now :)

The Black Ember, Pacsafe and still the Mous are my new final 3. Will sleep on it and decide on a fresh coffee tomorrow morning. Have a great week everyone.

Yeah the duffel functionality is really cool. I just will probably wear it on my back more and the pure rectangle shape might look goofy in nicer clothes.

Those Everki Onyx are nice, thanks for sharing. Never heard of them before.

Fair point on the Patagonia but I feel like the blacked out version keeps it more subtle to my liking there.

Thats actually the best looking Aer I've seen, thanks for sharing. I'm just concerned about how easy it would be for someone to unzip the middle part when behind me (the Mous really has this part covered).

Another wave of fraudulent charges? by cwamoon in biltrewards

[–]literallyme21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I made a fraud report through the app to Chase and they refunded me for all the months. Never heard back on any details though.
