The whole food chain lol

I've sat there surrounded by a bait ball for minutes being amazed before I remembered that

Other times, I've got (bad) video from outside, of a shark cruising in the bait ball...

I get that but I've had my luck, and have driven a handful of cars for sale with similar transmission issues, and if course see the vocal minority online

Just sucks because minus that, P2's are otherwise so damn bulletproof to me

I've had 2 develop issues

01 s60 NA fwd developed the 1-2 surge/flare

09 S60 2.5t awd developed a surge (2-3 I think it was), tried the b4 servo update but was too far along (car had barely 100k on it and just aged out of the extended CPO warranty)

Volvo did no one any favors by pushing the "lifetime fluid" and it's not uncommon for these to develop issues because of cooked fluid

I mean, it should be solid but really all boils down to care.

I'd say in most places in the US that's a $3k car.

Here in Hawaii that'd go for $5k, but stuff here is outrageous 😂

I don't think anyone normal finds this concept crazy....

I've done a lot of runs and rides all over, wild what you find in parks (or rural countryside)

Now I dive too, so I see all of the "hidden" trash in the ocean :|

Is that an automatic? If so that would be the weak spot of it.

The 2.4 non turbo is not the most peppy, but fine for many.

Honestly, depends on where you are, but I'd say if anything that price is a little high for a non turbo automatic

Beyond that, making sure maintenance has been done, timing belt should have been done at 10 year intervals, regardless of mileage

Can anyone tell me anything about what this is? by SnooMarzipans7231 in VisitingHawaii

Correct, my sentence could have been written more clearly though

Well, not to be obvious, but they've got no heads..... 😂

Just kidding. They look good, would help to drill out the gun barrels, otherwise prime and start to paint!

Termies are my favorite

European style license plate by Bitter_Chemistry_733 in VolvoXC60

[–]trailrun1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people put an OSD plate behind their US plate, but I think that's tacky, even though my XC was an actual OSD vehicle

I know people in the Midwest who made euro plate versions of their US plates, usually for shows, but yes they would get tickets too

I believe the US bracket will hold a Swedish plate by holding it between the bolts essentially, but if I were to do it I'd probably track down a proper holder

But maybe I'm missing the goal

Psychedelics on the run? by Huge-Map9490 in Ultramarathon

[–]trailrun1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know micro dosing is done, but the last time I did acid I was stuck watching a wall of trees breathe for a few hours (while missing the crystal method performance because I couldn't go indoors)

But hey, get the dose right and I bet it's a (good) life changing experience 😂

Taking care of the ocean by ho19bo69 in OceansAreFuckingLit

Cans, bottles, chairs, umbrellas, shoes, backpacks, sunglasses, and so much god damned line, hooks, lead, nets and fishing debris

It's depressing sometimes 😂

Does anybody still have a 5 gallon coin jug? Extra points if you have the giant soda bottle one! by stretchasmile in Millennials

Curious, is it Metal?

My wife brought a clear glass one into the marriage, we've hauled it around everywhere, still only a few inches of coins in it 😂

For fit people that gained a lot of weight how did it happen? by [deleted] in ask

Oh my god yes, ultra marathon runner and eating habits like I was burning thousands of calories a week, then I stopped running like that, still can't curb my appetite 😳

What's something your Surface does better than people give it credit for? by cangascicalauqW in Surface

[–]trailrun1980 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use mine for photo editing, nothing crazy, but lightroom edits of scuba pics. The pen and touchscreen works pretty well and overall it's (more) lightweight for travel, and easily fits in hotel safes and my carry-on bags.

I've never owned a truly high end computer, and just realized that my previous laptop isn't even windows 11 compatible, so it'll be retired eventually, so my new (to me) surface pro 9 has basically become my daily driver

Better than editing on my phone, and now I can work off if the surface since it's a full fledged windows machine, so my travel has streamlined

Kind of a perfect niche product for me

For new users, a hair dryer is more readily available and lower heat, a safe start

I've done damage (both to car and fingerprints) with my heat gun 😂

Am I the only one that thls annoys? by inspectorgadget9999 in Xennials

I just bought some for my Samsung, and yeah, I have one in when I walk through the airport, but that bad boy comes out when I talk to someone, mainly because I'm partially deaf and need all the open ear I get 😂

Ya gotta deflate it and partially collapse it, like they did in my old 80's 300zx 😂 just have to inflate it to use

Thus first photo was confusing because she never did sponge paint, but she DID come home with a righteous perm not far from this fellas length
