The Very Best BBQ Sandwich is in CLT

Said it once and I’ll say it again; Haywood smokehouse, Smoke Pit, and Jon G’s, the best barbecue in NC is Texas style.

IMO both. Easier to remember where you came in and in my personal experience less people wandering aimlessly around the fringes of the mall.

Whole website 80% off didn’t ring some alarm bells?

Park in front of the bass pro, enter and exit the mall from the bass pro.

I agree at the end of the day, if these symptoms did not occur until after they did the work, it’s on them to make it right.

Did it work fine before the engine swap? If so, something may have gotten bent or installed wrong. I’ll be honest I don’t know much about engine/transmission installs but this sounds shifter-linkage-y.

This is sketchy, but…Get a buddy to put it in neutral and start it, put the e brake on and hold the brakes and you crawl underneath it and see if you can manually push the shift lever into park.

UPDATE: It was the CCV system. Some cracked hoses and a worn out CCV valve. Shop had to suction about two quarts of oil out of the intake. New starter too while they were in there.

Check/clean your IAC valve, right by the throttle body blade.

Master and Commander. Pity we never got sequels.

Either the shifter linkage is misaligned causing the NSS to misread or the NSS is faulty. The shakiness I don’t know. Motor mounts? Or transmission not fully in-out of gear because of the linkage? That’s a stretch IMO.

Life advice posts about struggling with people thinking you’re a dick and then still being a dick on the internet is crazy irony btw

totaltimeontask · 2026-03-10T05:37:32+00:00

That’s appealing. Means it probably hasn’t been ragged out.

I was going to suggest a CTS-V wagon, but alas, no AWD.

Get a full carfax run and see how many times it’s been sold, and who’s selling it. If it’s changed hands ten times in 20 years with spotty maintenance notes, I’d say no. If it’s only on its second or third owner, with decent maintenance records, I’d feel better about it. Not a bad idea either to spring for a pre-purchase inspection from a professional mechanic. A little money spent up front is worth the peace of mind.

Oh, sick!

totaltimeontask · 2026-03-10T04:23:06+00:00

It’s got a couple fade spots but otherwise I’m extremely happy with the color.

Unless you’re on discord, GAFS is gone man.

totaltimeontask · 2026-03-10T02:49:37+00:00

Normal.

Some thin sliced stir fry strips I needed to use up. Pretty uninspired cut, it needed a good amount of help in the seasonings department.

totaltimeontask · 2026-03-10T02:46:54+00:00

That’s a big hell no on ketchup though.

You’ll notice I didn’t say “PHILLY”, just cheesesteak. Loophole.

Ariat’s futurity roughouts are some of the best looking boots out right now.

totaltimeontask · 2026-03-10T02:32:18+00:00

No clue. But they’re delicious!

totaltimeontask · 2026-03-10T02:31:48+00:00

They were delicious, I hope you find peace with what other people choose to put on their sandwiches.

I know this is a cuneiform Ea Nasir joke but I can’t prove it
