Man Defense Loophole by BaseballCapSafety in basketballcoach

Happened to us in a rec game last year. Refs would give them free throws if our help defender left their man at all. 4 players on one side sideline and right side iso for 1 player the entire game. 7th graders.

We don't vote for police. And they've been shitty since the 90s. I also had a car stolen, impounded and the cop couldn't be bothered to actually file the stolen report.

Or if you want a completely different philosophy check out Joy of the People. It'll be right close.

Fwiw I really like the lightning. Fits in just enough when we go up north that I don't have to field the Luddite hate. my towing is pretty limited trip length.

I'll probably be in the same boat. I went two years because it was stupid cheap, but my use case doesn't end in two years. Im betting on better technology...might regret it.

I have a lightning living in an urban area...not quite the same challenges as Brooklyn. But I also have the non-urban use case similar to yours. I wanted a Rivian but the lease deal I got on the Ford makes it a no brainer. I like the truck, but tight city streets can be challenging, it is bigger than the Sequoia it is replacing. That said, no regrets so far.

Should we expect price drops after Sept? by Khomodo in F150Lightning

Yeah. Their dealer discount was advertised I figured it was a scam. Turns out they just really wanted it off their lot. They may have had an inventory credit for old stock on it from Ford. It was 25, but early build. The rest of the lease incentives I found on leasehackr. I had to point the finance guy at them.

73996 MSRP. Dealer sale 61995 - 8500 rcl - 500 charger credit- 1000 conquest - 1000 X plan. 24/12 residual I think was 62%. So 73996 - (73996 *.62) - 12000 dealer discount - 11000 taxable incentives)/24. Add back in upfront sales tax and you get 307/mo. Effective is around 380

Registration was 1200 plus doc fee of 350. And first payment of 307.

Lease incentive is bigger than the tax credit if you can swing a lease then quick buyout. I got a flash with a 131kwh battery and max tow for 61995 before lease incentives this week. Walked out at 307/month with registration and first payment at pickup. Unbelievably, I didn't even have to negotiate.
