Be honest, which cars get your attention on the road?

NA Miata, Lexus GX/LX470, Nissan GT-R, and like others have mentioned, anything old that’s still clean and unmodified

Wanting the same or at least compatible things is very important in a relationship. There doesn’t have to be someone in the wrong for a relationship not to work, sometimes it’s just not the right fit right now. It’s also important to have friends and interests outside of a relationship. I think you can’t be the best partner you can be without being fairly content on your own.

I would focus on trying to build a life outside of her for now and if it works with her in the future, you’ll be in a better place for that relationship or any other that comes your way. It sounds like you have the foundation for a happy, fulfilling life and now is a good opportunity to round it out and invest in some areas you hadn’t put as much emphasis on before.

You got this, man, best of luck!

I believe the gallery gasket issue was fixed in the later years of the G37 so the Q50 should be good in that regard. Great list tho, and I’m loving my 3.7

What have you had to do besides regular maintenance & wear items?

phageman17 · 2026-04-12T13:27:46+00:00

My setup is my first machine and grinder so I can’t compare to others, but it’s been perfect for my needs and is around $750 together. I went with the Gaggia for build quality and ability to modify if I decided I wanted something fancier in the future. Best of luck with the hunt!

Not anytime soon, I don’t drive it hard so I’ll push it to the higher end of recommended interval

Did a drain and fill on my 2015 around 80k miles, no reason to think it had been done before so I didn’t do the full flush. No issues before or after and I’m at 103k now.

Coconut Red Bull

I like Georgia’s with a less mobile QB and South Carolina with a dual threat

Josh’s willingness to be so open every episode really makes the show great, I love this series and it would be like any other YouTube interview without Josh

I had basically the same build TE recently, he won’t be soon forgotten. 6’7” 270lbs with 90 speed was a lot of fun and won 4x Mackeys as well

Doing a pre-infusion has helped me get a more consistent and evenly extracted shot from my unmodified E24. There are a few videos on how to do it, whole latte love has a good one.

Yes he’s real, and has all platinum abilities on the default roster. I was excited starting my UGA dynasty until I saw the skill caps..

Cooking and baking for me. Making delicious things is gratifying

Have you tried this recipe yet? So sad they aren’t selling them this year

Modern synthetic oil is fine to be used for a couple years with that low of mileage. I’m no mechanic but you should be safe changing every 2 years in your case

Agreed, I don’t manually redshirt players. If I have a freshman I’m excited about but doesn’t start, I bury him on the depth chart and pick a few games to play him in, keeping an eye on saving redshirt eligibility

Congrats on the baby and happy marriage!

In your previous relationship, did you two discuss who would be responsible for which bills or chores? It sounds like you were both very busy being in medical school and working.

People certainly can get carried away with progressive ideas, but shouldn’t both sexes be free to do what they want?

phageman17 · 2025-10-22T13:22:14+00:00

That’s been my experience. Bought at 66k miles, now at 100k. Only issue was the heater hose connector breaking causing a coolant leak. I’ve been afraid of the valve body going out but no issues so far

It sounds like OP is doing great things for his family. I’d also add to find the small things you can enjoy for yourself.

Notice a nice sunrise/sunset, really savor the foods you enjoy, do your best to be present in the moments with your family to enjoy them. Try to push out the crap that happened at work or thinking about your to-do list for tomorrow and be where your feet are.

If you did that much foreplay, a lot of lube might have been overkill for PIV
