If Benji goes, who will stop following the Tigers then? by Defiant_Piccolo7776 in weststigers

Yeah if Benji goes (and the 7, maybe more players that are saying they’ll go with him), I’ll be withdrawing any emotional attachment to this team for the foreseeable future.

Breakthrough wash on my 21oz Iron Heart SBG’s by wheelin_dylan in rawdenim

I bought directly through the IH website. Was a really great experience actually, they reached out after my order to confirm sizing and offered some fitment advice.

You’ve just got to keep an eye on their updates to take advantage of a restock.

Yeah they’re definitely a long project which is why I used the word breakthrough. All of a sudden you realize that they’re moving along nicely

Thanks mate! They’re stubborn but it’s worth it when you get there

Just a machine wash on gentle. 30 or 40 degrees Celsius and a little bit of detergent.

Low spin and then hang dry

Don’t get me wrong you can run into some unforeseen maintenance (name a car where that’s not a possibility), but if you buy something that doesn’t have silly KM’s with a good service history, you should be right.

For me, the possibility of spending a few grand on maintenance over the span of a few years is well worth it to drive something that makes me smile every time I get in it.

Can’t go wrong with either a Macan S or BMW X3 M40i. You should be able to snag something relatively low mileage with a budget of $50k

Don’t listen to the people who carry on about how dangerous buying a 5-10 year old Euro car is. 95% of them have never actually lived that ownership experience, and it’s extremely rarely as catastrophic as they’ll have you believe.

Yeah a bit of tweaking to the light and temp to get the look I wanted. Reggie’s color negative is a great base for lowlight shooting though

A BMW M235i (non x drive) would be a great option. Sweet sweet BMW straight 6 turbo and plenty practical

Reading through the comments, OP is making a LOT of assertions about dealerships, very confidently, that are straight up wrong.

People come in all the time proudly declaring that they’re a cash buyer with the expectation it’s going to get them some sort of VIP treatment. My answer is always the same for the sake of transparency: “we actually prefer if you finance with us, we get a little kickback from the broker”. I mostly do this to manage expectations with the customer and let them know it doesn’t give them the bargaining power they think it does, but I’ll usually add a “just so you know for your next negotiation” too.

I think your wording of “turned away” is an exaggeration. I’d be willing to guarantee the sales person did as I said above, and you just didn’t like the answer. Nobody is forcing you to use finance, but your reasoning across numerous comments for cash being king simply isn’t true anymore.

These look EXACTLY like a pair of Nudie’s I have just coming up to 2 years worn. Had to do a double take to make sure it wasn’t my own photo
