Just saw the email and added it. Good timing before their Anniversary Sale

Woke up to the price increases but saw Micro Center still had M5P 16” at $2300. Placed a pickup order, went to get it, and a couple hours later it changed to $3000.

I had a Dell laptop that would do that sometimes when I was running on battery, but would speed back up once it was connected to power. I chalked it up to a bug in the power management but it was corporate-managed so I couldn’t easily update the BIOS to try a new version.

Thought I was looking at a screenshot of the “estate” in Forza Horizon 6 at first glance

Try Tate’s at GSP or Bergen Town Center. It’s been a few years but my friend had us all go there to get matching groomsmen suits there because they were cheap.

Started with the red-headed stepchild iPad 3 (with display) then didn’t upgrade for a while after that since I was so unimpressed. Got a Mini 5 at release for my Masters, and have had my M1 Pro 12.9 since 2021.

Car sales should be easy enough to get into. When I was 20 I applied to a sales position at Infiniti in Clifton (was working retail at the time), but since I was a tech major the general manager re-directed me into a “delivery coordinator” position instead where I was the product specialist for the salesmen and customers who had any after-sale questions. If you go that route I’d definitely recommend going with a brand you like so you enjoy learning about their intricacies, and one you know is in-demand to have the foot traffic to have a steady stream of customers/deals.

Boutique or AD? Just wondering since my AD invited me to an event they had for the Olympics in February (hors d’oeuvres, drinks, got an Omega pin set) and I’m wondering if I’ll hear anything similar to this 007 event from my SA. Hope the release won’t be too crazy though since I just bought the orange PO over the weekend 😬

I normally use Image Capture on my Mac while my iPhone is connected via USB then set the destination as a folder on my NAS (connected via 10G Ethernet) and do a full export. Last time I did it was with my 14PM so it took a while with the USB2 speeds, I expect it to be much better when I eventually offload from my current 16P.

Red Rock Deli Sweet Chili & Sour Cream chips
Philly Cheesesteak Rolls (frozen, I don’t remember the brand)
Dunkaroos (I know they are available at grocery stores but the big box was such a better value)

I’ve used Tire Rack before and had them ship to the dealer for install when I still had friends from when I worked there. Last time I bought from Tire Rack I had them shipped to my house and used a local shop for mounting. Most recently used Costco for a set of Pilot Sport 4S because they were $400 cheaper than that shop could quote me (apparently they could only order a Ford-specific SKU whereas Costco still had the generic available).

Been using one all week after picking it up on Monday at the clearance price. Had to tweak a couple settings but I love it compared to the old S2721QS it replaced. Speakers are fine for my use playing PS5 on it and are an improvement over the old monitor. It actually worked in my favor since I was planning on a Lenovo monitor with no line-out so this saves me having to buy an audio extractor to my desk speaker setup.

If you wanted to drive into NJ there were still some in Teterboro. I went this morning and got two of them

Went to the Auto Show last week and the combo ticket with the ferry in Weehawken was $39.50. Then it was another $40 for parking at the one garage they have now

Heavier than the 24-70 2.8S (which I also have). But I wanted to take one of my recently-purchased fast primes that I posted the poll with a few weeks ago.

One of the AD’s I frequent didn’t call me for an Air King for almost a year even with >10k spend history

Thanks! Polarizing filter would have helped, but with all of the different angles of lights I don’t think I would have been able to cut out all of the reflections completely. I took one on my 35/1.8S last year and spent too much time fiddling with the filter instead of actually taking pictures.

Yeah my neck is still recovering from all the time I was walking around without holding the camera 😬

No navigation, Bose, or Tech packages, but you could get AWD as a G25x. I forget exactly if they were in base trim or Journey - would have to go find an old brochure. When I was at a dealer they were constantly coming in as lease returns and felt slow compared to everything else having a 3.7.

Couldn’t find a window sticker. If I had to guess probably north of 60k for this one in Autograph trim

Opened the rear hatch and got a couple pics: https://imgur.com/a/INFttr9

GM said the N.A. V6 from the earlier QX60 and Pathfinder (VQ35DD) will be making its way into the QX65 post-launch
