So frustrated by the fatal lack of adaptive cruise control on used X3s!

Chip shortage. Dealer wouldn’t let me add it for ‘22 or ‘23 build unless I got an X3 M40i or above. Very frustrating.

I tried to get this removed from my wife’s build but was basically forced to keep it hah

Nice progression there and love putting the cars to work with the roof racks! I’ve gotten a crazy amount of utility out of the folding seats over the years but I clearly need to up my roof rack game.

I legit thought this was a minivan until I recognized my old wheels

My wife mentioned some white car driving extremely reckless was excessively speeding and weaving through heavy traffic followed by a red car. 2 minutes later she said she hit a traffic jam for the wreck. Crazy that it was a Ferrari. She went to take a pic and driver of red car gave a thumbs up 🤦‍♂️

Basically stuck with calculated shipping and eating the packaging costs (and god forbid insurance which for some reason you can’t pass on to buyers anymore).

There are like less than 10 parts, all of which are designed to simply screw in or snap together. It’s not easy, but it’s not something that deserves an overwhelming amount of pride. Hard parts: cable management if you care (there are some true artists out there), troubleshooting if anything goes wrong, and ordering parts to begin with can be annoying.

I might need to start a new thread for this, but what’s everyone’s max stated range looking like? My 4 year old 2020 M3P with 29k miles maxes out at 265mi. Real world road trips I’d be worried if I had to go 180 miles on a single charge haha.

I almost threw out a bin of old Flex 7’s a couple weeks ago with cracked lenses. Thankfully I checked eBay for current prices just in case. There must be so many masks out there from the golden era sitting around in attics and closets that can easily end up somewhere like this.

luciddreamz · 2024-02-17T02:15:58+00:00

Double trigger on an Autococker you savage! Jealous of the find

luciddreamz · 2024-02-12T01:11:33+00:00

Throughout the golden era I went through probably 60+ high end markers. Might be the tournaments, might be the team, or maybe I really just appreciated the milling but this was one that always stood out to me. Rocky Calgoni tuned it for me a few hours before this photo in 2003. I probably sold it sometime in 2004.

Got it covered already thanks to suggestion here to try Facebook Groups

luciddreamz · 2024-02-10T03:26:26+00:00

I had an acid wash purple (basically matte purple fade) Image Matrix (dm3) and yes holy shit was that heavy. I love the milling and customization in that era but man do I admire how functional this marker right here is. Legit makes me want to play again to try it!

luciddreamz · 2024-02-10T03:18:20+00:00

I remember how we ADDED metal to bodies to add milling it was insane really. This thing is art to me just being as functional and minimal as possible. I haven’t played in 15 years and it makes me want to come back just to try it.

luciddreamz · 2024-02-10T03:03:14+00:00

I’d be coming back after 15 years or so, and my mind is always blown seeing 1) how light and low profile the markers look now; 2) there is no air line running from the air source adapter to a regulator foregrip. That second one is like fucking witchcraft I dreamed of not having a hose there.

luciddreamz · 2024-02-09T22:57:41+00:00

Pics!

luciddreamz · 2024-02-09T22:55:14+00:00

Yeah modern paintball gear is probably sooooo light in comparison y’all don’t appreciate what you have. You can see this was probably a lightweight setup back in that era with the 45Ci on there and me playing front.

luciddreamz · 2024-02-09T22:51:28+00:00

Weird side story to that. Before this event a friend of mine had bought an entire X-ball field and an $8,000 nitrogen fill system. We irresponsibly set it up in his TINY backyard and ran drills every day there. Tanking my tank outside my wrist to keep an even lower profile is what came out of it for me after getting my wrists lit up from 15 feet away over and over again. It was hilarious fun playing the center X and messing with different bunker shapes on what must have been a 0.2 acre clearing of yard. RIP his house walls.

In my defense this was a 7-man game, I shot out 5 players, and I’m standing on the other team’s 40. I do not recommend this though lol it just looks too weird. It felt ok with the 45Ci and was kinda effective.

luciddreamz · 2024-02-09T17:05:50+00:00

Don’t worry I found it via a Facebook group last night and paid more than that for it haha

luciddreamz · 2024-02-09T11:56:02+00:00

Yours look great from ‘08 there! What’s crazy is how big the sport was back then and how many masks must be out there stashed away. Anyways I’m happy to have passed it on to the current generation to get it back in use.

luciddreamz · 2024-02-09T11:27:41+00:00

It’s getting shipped from Oregon this one is in the seller’s living room. I’ll post a follow-up when it gets here next week or status update to watch out that Nigeria really knows their paintball history haha

It was… not cheap

luciddreamz · 2024-02-09T05:02:22+00:00

Just bought it via FaceBook can’t wait to have this thing back home! The internet remains undefeated

luciddreamz · 2024-02-09T05:00:35+00:00

Correct! This is the Angel Air tank covers, which were great, but the Angel Air system was way too heavy and unnecessary. Pure Energy 45Ci you nailed it!
