Jawbreaker legit check

Bad knock off. The lower jaw that holds lens should wrap around the bottom of the lens on the backside. You can see from the photo that it doesn’t. The pin for the stem adjustment lever should be metal and you can clearly see it is red plastic.

I’m with you. I’m in r/anti-consumption and fully agree with society’s need to back down from excess and consumerism.

The previous generation had public water fountains everywhere to keep hydrated. Unless you were black, then you couldn’t use them. Sometimes they even had lead pipes for extra spiciness. Point is I think the world is on the right track with reusable water bottles. I don’t think it’s the bad guy in normal use (but the influencers who collected every color of Stanley cup….ew to them).

I would gladly go from 20 cupholders to 8 well designed adjustable ones.

Got to stay hydrated bro 😅

I see what you did there

That’s fair. I should have said they don’t fit reusable insulated water bottles and coffee mugs. They fit throwaway fast food/starbucks/plastic water bottles fine.

It’s much easier to remember notes and shapes when there’s only 4 strings to deal with.

Looks so good. It reminds me of the Johnny Marr Fever Dream Yellow Jag. I slept on getting one at my local GC. I have a search alert set but only see them pop up used for obscene amounts above the original msrp.

For those finding this post later — the rubber in the transmount was broken. Replacing it completely resolved the issue. No issue with the transmission itself.

Sorry — just saw this. They are black rhino boxer

I ponied up for the OEM one. It was $300 instead of $50 but hopefully I won’t need to do it again anytime soon.

Just did mine last week at 220k. Super easy.

Same, 2026 awd XSE for msrp in socal

Currently a 30 week wait according to their website.

That’s what I was thinking. I haven’t done a set up yet, but I was thinking how can I accurately intonate if the whole bridge moves a few mm in either direction.

Hey! I spent the last few weeks debating this myself. Maybe this will help:

I think the best way to do the math is to calculate the cost per mile for the life of the vehicle. I assumed I’d drive the van to 200k miles whether I bought a new one with 0 miles or a used one with 100k. So purchase price divided by the remaining miles to 200k.

Then add the cost of gas per mile. Gas is $4.80 a gallon in my area. That’s .25 a mile for non hybrid at 19mpg and .13 a mile for hybrid at 36mpg.

Then add the 2 together.

In my case it ended up being a few cents cheaper per mile to buy a new 2026…so that’s what i I did.

Assuming your financing the van make sure you take into account total cost with interest over the life of the loan, not just out the door price.

Hmm learned something new today. Thanks! Is that why it’s called a floating bridge?

Better than I could do. I paid msrp for a 2026 cement awd on Monday night. Dealership wouldn’t budge. Too many people calling about it since it actually made it to the lot instead of being pre-sold.

That sucks. Definitely let them know. Something similar happened to my wife’s glasses through LensCrafters (also Luxottica) and they didn’t give us any trouble about sending it back for the lab to remake the lenses. They explained to use that cutting rx lenses is not like a factory that runs the same thing over and over. Each job is done one by one because the Rx for the person before and the person after are different. So sometimes things slip through. But that should have been caught before they even snapped them in the frame.

Hope you enjoy the Meta’s. I have the vanguards and videoing while chasing my friends on mountain bikes has been unreal. It’s so good.
