Investor in Wayne Industries and a bat mobile isn’t on your list to replace the Ariya? Missed opportunity.

MSP cars have that on that Stop sign on the hood.So is that suppose to make the bad guys STOP? The guy they're chasing can't even see it.

The pizza was a separate item from the beer. Stream of consciousness typing.
I’ll have to get back and see if I can find the posting again.

Qbrozen, is that stainless steel peg board? I have some in the garage and one in a pantry to hang pots and pans. Not cheap but looks great.
Yes, it is. I forget where I got it. Grainger maybe? I was going to relocate it to the new garage but just left it. It doesn’t get a whole lot of use where it is now but what can ya do?

Pex and CPVC are GARBAGE!Plumbers came back out yesterday and cut another hole in the garage ceiling to get access to the shower plumbing to figure out where the leak was. Man was that bathroom laid out poorly in terms of access. But they found it. The fitting on the cold water line (that connects the PEX hose to the shower valve) had a hairline crack letting water leak out just a little. Apparently it was a bear to replace due to tight access but it is done. Now just need contractor back out to replace insulation and drywall that got wet or removed. Will be nice not having holes cut out in my ceiling.
Hopefully that is it for punch list items.
Solder, Pro Press, or Threaded Brass Fittings & Nipples are the way to go!

I guess you haven't ever got divorced.I never understood hating someone you once liked enough to marry that you would rather give money to a lawyer instead of splitting it with your ex.
It can depend on the circumstances. One guy I know came home and found a note that said his wife left him to go with her new boyfriend....all the furniture was gone except for one arm chair and a case of beer. He was not feeling too friendly about it!

There’s no way I’d pay $52-70k to “wear” anything.I believe the regen braking level is fixed. I like it. The 4xe has a regen setting but I wish it was aggressive as the BMW- although a lot of people don't like it. The i4 to me is another boring product for the wearers.I got to drive a BMW i4 today. It was as fast as a scalded cat but the controls were not at all intuitive. In my drive I couldn’t figure how to operate the climate controls. Maybe that’s why I started out with 143 miles of range and ended up with 155. I didn’t need to use the brakes because the regenerative system was set up like a boat anchor. I assume it could be adjusted to be less aggressive but again, not intuitive. We even had a hard time unplugging the thing from the charger until I remember these things had a security feature that prevents some power pirate from unplugging your car by locking the plug until you unlock the car.Wouldn’t you be afraid of buying a used EV because of the risk of battery issues? I know on the Mazda CX-90 forums the PHEV models are having an epidemic of battery failures.Not really. Anything I would buy, other than an i3, would still be under powertrain warranty for a while.
