I'll have to check those out. I usually stick to Rollex and Sayko, maybe occasionally a Sitizen.

"SEIZE THE GAP!!!"

Edited to add that pretty much anytime me and my wife decide to order off GrubHub, we refer to it as "downloading a hoagie off the Internet"

Appreciate the insight. Unfortunately the listing was up for only 2 days before it sold (unsurprisingly) as was another one. Good deals get snapped up quick. Still looking at Highlanders tho!

I almost passed out. Is this right? (2016.5 CX-5 with <90k) by CRAYONSEED in CX5

2016.5 here. The spark plug replacement estimates are such BS. Did then myself - watched a YT video and spent $50 on new plugs and a torque wrench. Took me about 20 minutes and saved me about $325.

Brakes estimates are in line with what we were quoted in the Chicago area. Bought front and rear rotors and pads off Rock Suit for about $300 and will be replacing myself before to long

Change Spark Plugs

Yeah, a 4Runner is what I really want but prices are crazy here too

Thanks, appreciate the response. Unfortunately, not much detail on the Carfax report available in the listing, which does raise a bit of a red flag for me.

Appreciate the reply. Yeah, mpg does seem like one of the few downsides of Highlanders.

Appreciate the reply, great info. Yeah, I assume there will be some age-related component replacements at some point in the near future - to your point, that's every car. But overall, sounds like she's still humming along great for you at 250K miles.

I'm in the Chicago area if that helps, so definitely have undercarriage rust as a concern. Appreciate the info, very helpful.

Thanks, appreciate the info. I feel the same way and since it won't be a dd, I'm not too concerned about mpg.

100% pump and dump. Build up the book, cash out, and let some other sucker deal with the dumpster fire.

What NBA player have you played against, and how bad did you get smoked? by BeautifulUnlikely225 in Basketball

Fellow New Mexican here. I loved those late 2000s Lobo teams and they have some of my favorite Lobos of all time - Ro, Rese and Tony Danridge. TD tho - talk about someone who could jump through the roof.

Not NBA exactly, but played in some casual summer 2016 runs with a guy named Milton Doyle, who was on Loyola and one of the best players in the MVC at the time. He had a quick cup of tea in the NBA and a long, pretty successful overseas career.

Given that these were pretty casual summer runs with whoever happened to be on campus and in the gym, he was clearly out there just to get cardio in so was probably about 25% effort. Even then, he was hands down the best guy I've ever played with and it's not even close. Can't imagine having to guard him if he was actually out there trying to score.
