  1. I noticed a leak in October. Plumbers were crazy expensive so I fixed it with a friend. Turn back on the water, still a leak. Call a leak detector. Open up the driveway and cap it. Turn back on the water, another leak. Weird thing, last one was an open 2 inch line of freshwater. When we capped it, it started or we noticed another leak a few feet up, but under a compressor so can’t get to it. Hunch is it was plugged and abandoned when the previous owner put in a water softener. I’m beyond frustrated. Plumber coming tomorrow. Hopefully he can loop around it or something and this nightmare will be over. Last water bill was $1100…
  2. Paying a lot for bad seats To see Pearl Jam in Vegas. Worth it.
  3. Got the doors off just in time for this beautiful afternoon. Took me awhile (30 minutes?), but I know what I’m doing now. Still, the roof was way easier. I think I am down to about 5-10 minutes depending on how good my helpers (kids) are.
  4. I got a Stanley cup for Christmas. I don’t get the hype. It’s nice, but other than the straw, how’s it different from yeti?
  5. I tried Mathew McC’s Pantalones the other day. Very good.
  6. Where did the tongue come from again? Agree that this season was stupid as shit. I even hated the location. Like how does everyone not know everyone in a tiny little village in Alaska?
  7. So, I have my eye on one that has a manual. Apparently they explode from time to time.
  8. He needs to drop out and let that guy from Minnesota take the nod.
  9. Anyone else skim the interview with Putin on Twitter? I figured out who he reminds me of. The villain in Ghostbusters 2 that returns from the dead with 1000’s of years of gripes and complaints. He squirmed on the WSJ hostage issue way more than Ukraine.
  10. This thread needs more activity because I refuse to join one of those weird jeep sites.
  11. I was thinking the same thing. I think we made it out to the lake about 4 times last year. Used the boat every time. Jet ski maybe twice.
  12. Roger. Was wondering anyone had a brand they liked.
  13. https://www.connectcre.com/stories/mortgage-rates-expected-to-drop-to-5-5-in-2024/?utm_campaign=Connect CRE News&utm_medium=email&_hsmi=292568994&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_vMgp5NNsr5CWjBp-TGewyRHGI1bLIZlDGb83xUc1eBogFwdjwI3aznsQupKyE-NcLiM16AByKki2W0iPRDog45Hs1UINo8heUdJR8OS0gjVoKvaM&utm_content=292568994&utm_source=hs_email That didn’t embed well
  14. Has anyone upgraded the headlights to LED? I can’t go back to those old school halogens. They just suck.
  15. I’m really starting to wish this was going to be my third car forever and not my son’s car in 13 months…
  16. Update - the blue Jeep had rust all over it, even on the inside. It was obviously a beach Jeep that wasn’t maintained well. Pivoting to another Jeep that just came in. It’s a sport S with a hard top and brand new Goodyear wranglers for $1000 more than the base sport that was rusted. So, any specific suggestions for a hard top? Should I consider an aftermarket soft top for good weather seasons? Thanks in advance for the help, Surly Jeep Community.
  17. I’m not looking to lift it, but maybe level it. Thoughts on that? If I upgrade the stereo, is it going to get stolen by easily inviting a bad guy to cut the soft top open? any secret to keeping the windshield from getting cracks or chips? with a soft top, is it worth getting one of those Bimini style tops? I have so many questions!
  18. So, I finally bought a jeep. Blue 2020 wrangler unlimited sport with a soft top and manual transmission. Low miles. I have two weeks to return it if I don’t like it. This is a third car that will be my kid’s first car in a year or two. Help me: How should I figure out if there is something wrong with it? What kind of mods should I do? I don’t want anything extreme. I really wanted a Willys but this one was so much cheaper, so I thought about making some changes to make it look like a Willys. Mostly, some chunkier tires. I also need to figure out the phone mounting and integration.
  19. Toxic playing at the end was nuts. The music has been brilliant this season. The soundtrack is streamable, FYI.
  20. I mean, we committed all of those. Now, Washington had a few they weren't called, so they should be closer to 8-9.
