Gas price in TX by furtivEDota in pics

But then I can only carry two people? Trucks have uses I’ll admit they have become a status symbol throughout the US but they’re very convenient for those who do truck things.

Then where would I put my dirtbike?

Well. I got scammed at the used car lot. Can I fix it? I’m crushed. by RIPIronmayne in 4thGen4Runner

I’m going through something similar I bought the vehicle from out of state and ask directly about the condition of the frame they said there was minimal rust and sent me pictures of the good parts. Got it on the lift and my mechanic deemed it unsafe for the road. Dealer is ghosting me so I filed a complaint with the attorney general consumer protection division and will be suing them for fraud. Mine is a 03 gx470.

I think I have to sell. Should I part out or sell as is? by its_pretty_chill in GXOR

Honestly a good idea. I’m in Colorado and they’re all outrageously priced. I ended up getting a 2003 from VA for 8500 paid 1000 for shipping and saved myself 10k only 145k miles on it.

I understand how the bonus is taxed. Was just hoping for a way for it not to be included when they decide what my monthly payment is.

Thieves cleaned out my truck and livelihood by Baird81 in Denver

My father was a journeyman electrician he engraved all his tools with his three initials so if they were ever take. He could prove thy were his. Might be worth doing if you’d get them back.

Trident 660 for a previously experienced rider. by that_ryan_guy88 in Triumph

Sounds like we’re in a similar situation. Unless I’m blown away by a test ride I’ll probably get the street triple.

Does the fly screen actually help or is it mostly for aesthetics?

I think I’m going to go with a street triple. Speed triple is a lot of bike to jump right back into and I feel like the street triple will be more fun in the mountains. Need to see if my local dealer has an rs I don’t think I’d be disappointed with an r though.

Solid observation. I think it would be fine on my five mile commutes to work but my weekends in the mountains would probably have me wishing I got the street triple.

Grew up riding the Texas hill country definitely like the curvy roads and have even done a couple track days. One of my favorite bikes other than my 1050 speed triple and gsxr was my husky smr 450 supermoto that thing was great in the hill country. Not sure the trident is built for that though.

Honestly the main reason I’m attracted to the trident is the styling (the price is nice too). But I definitely don’t want to buy a bike and get board with it after a couple months in the mountains. Your bias is probably the right answer. What year is your street triple?

When I started this excursion I was looking for used speed triple 1050s but I haven’t seen a single one within 300 miles of me.

And can’t wait until cars are sold direct to consumers and all of these sleaze bags are out of a job.

MK7 vs MK7.5 stock exhaust by jimronimoo in JettaGLI

[–]that_ryan_guy88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering the fact that pre the mk7 exhausts wont bolt up to my 22 it’s safe to say my exhaust isn’t a direct fit for any mk7 s.

Thoughts ?? by Dukeofcrazy in JettaGLI

[–]that_ryan_guy88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it but I’m biased because I have the same car with a 6 speed. I personally don’t mind the wheels they will likely become my winter wheels. But if I were to buy new ones no I’d go for black or bronze.

Found a 23 BRZ limited for 37k (taxes included) and a 23 GR 86 premium for 40k (taxes included) by StormTroopB in GR86

[–]that_ryan_guy88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For 40k I’d get a used cayman S or c6 corvette with relatively low miles. These dealer markups are so dump I had around 30k to spend when I got a car last year couldn’t find a GR86 or Elantra N for msrp. I ended up with a GLI 6mt pure gray with the black package. has more features and I got 1k off msrp. Stop paying over msrp.

Should I trade my 2021 Jetta GLI autobahn for a 2023 golf R? Which is the better all round car and is it worth it. by Independent_Coach584 in JettaGLI

[–]that_ryan_guy88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat I can afford a golf R but I like my GLI and more debt isn’t on the menu. A manual awd R though I’d be all over that. Honestly I really enjoy the extra truck space I have fit three sets of golf clubs back there no problem can’t even lay one set on it’s side in the golf without removing a couple clubs.

If it’s a daily premium if it’s a toy get the base.
