  1. It’s a fact that people are holding cars longer than ever in the modern era. Car sales have been and are expected to continue to decline for the next 3 years. And one of the key factors is reliability and consumer confidence in brand reliability.
  2. I fill closer to 32 on the Ford vs 30-ish on the Tundra. But that’s the case with every modern car on electric pump
  3. Want to say I went ever so slightly larger on mine and got minor tire rub in the front at full turn so I adjusted the wheels slightly to accommodate. Big shoes made a huge difference on the look.
  4. Hey man. Typical on the Tundra. The displacement and where the pump sits makes it impossible to get anywhere near the full tank capacity. It was always 29-30 gallons of fill for me when “empty”
  5. Porsche doesn’t have a push button start* *technically
  6. I will admit that the pos is without reproach. But tuning it makes it even more reprehensible.
  7. Step 1: don’t pay your bill fucking Harris County Texas https://www.foxnews.com/us/texas-capital-murder-suspect-gps-monitor A capital murder suspect in Texas had a court-ordered ankle monitor removed by the device's operators because the company reportedly said he didn't pay them a monitoring fee to wear the tracker. Clint Walker, 27, is accused of fatally shooting a man during a November 2016 robbery gone awry. Several months ago, Walker was released on a $100,000 surety bond and ordered to wear the GPS monitor, provided by a company called Guarding Public Safety. But Walker, according to KHOU, "failed to pay the company his monthly monitoring fee" that was reportedly a condition of his bond, and therefore the company removed the device — leaving authorities unable to track the murder suspect.
  8. I’d hold off. No need to void your warranty day 1. It’s going to smoke the old M5 as-is. Let your butt get used to the power before you tune it. It’s going to be a lot of fun out of the box anyway. I tuned my X5M prematurely and shit started failing fast with the limits pushed.
  9. Four letter store in Houston has made outbound calls on Weller Full Proof. It has landed.
  10. Wood... https://news.yahoo.com/job-applicant-outraged-company-shares-171030253.html A job applicant shared her outrage on social media after a company she applied to shared one of her personal Instagram posts along with a "PSA" to future prospects. Emily Clow, a 24-year-old from Austin, Texas, recently applied for a marketing coordinator internship at Kickass Masterminds, an Austin-based marketing company founded and primarily run by women that says it is "hell-bent on helping entrepreneurs grow businesses faster than they could on their own." Clow says shortly after filling out an online application, she was prompted to follow the company's Instagram account "for an advantage over other applicants." When she did so, she says she was shocked to find a photo of herself in a swimsuit on the company's story, along with a piece of unsolicited advice. "PSA (because I know some of you applicants are looking at this)," the company wrote over Clow's photo. "Do not share your social media with a potential employer if this is the kind of content on it. I am looking for a potential marketer–not a bikini model." "Go on with your bad self and do whatever in private," it added. "But this is not doing you any favors in finding a professional job." Angered by the post, Clow sent a screenshot of the company's story to SheRatesDogs, a popular Twitter account that features user-submitted content highlighting unsolicited advances, threats and demeaning insults women experience on social media. The account shared the photo on Monday, where it has since racked up over 51,000 likes and more than 5,800 retweets. "This girl applied for an internship at a company, and they put up this screenshot of her in a bikini on their company Instagram, publicly telling everybody they wouldn’t hire her because of this photo," it wrote. Since the exchange went viral, the company has been forced to take down its social accounts, podcast page and website "because of continued, numerous death threats and thousands of harassing messages," Kickass Masterminds CEO Sara Christensen told In The Know. Contrary to what SheRatesDogs wrote on Twitter, Christensen said Clow has not been "disqualified" over the bikini image "at all." "There was no communication to her saying she was disqualified," the CEO said via email. "I have an email communication from her yesterday still expressing interest in the position after the post." In an Oct. 1 email, which Christensen shared with In The Know, Clow resent her résumé and cover letter and said she hoped to hear from the company soon in regards to the open position. She also asked that the company, "please take down the picture of me from your Insta story," a request Christensen said she honored "immediately." When asked about the inspiration behind the social media "PSA," Christensen declined to comment. Following the debacle, Clow took to Twitter to share that she was still "baffled" by the company's action but also astounded by the support she received on social media after sharing her story.
  11. Can’t speak to that, but I drove the new top end Ram before buying my ford and can honestly say it was the best riding truck I’ve ever experienced. Just didn’t love the styling enough to pull the trigger.
  12. Accurate post is accurate.
  13. Like here and there. Two small mom and pops. Not sure their distributor. Each got exactly three bottles.
  14. Bottle here and there showing up in Houston.
  15. Happy fourth anniversary of the shittiest reffing job and special teams performance in history!
  16. Let’s just make certain we never employ the tech involved in deciding whether or not a ball is in/out as they do in tennis. We don’t need these computers doing the work of the zebras. We want them to use poor judgment.
  17. Can your Gulfstream tow two, though?
  18. We drink and we know things. That’s what we do.
  19. So many questions. What does Kentucky have to do with this game? I guess SECSECSEC. Are you raping me and all the other men too? Ooof. Are you raping the cheerleaders or do they get broken in two? Does that apply to your own cheerleaders? Are you planning to break the benches in two? The Gatorade cooler?
  20. Maybe it was the shitastic reffing or the laughable gaffs by Texas that made it feel worse than it was, but my 9 year old and I baked in the stands during the OKSt game in 2015
  21. Nothing scares you to death like someone telling you they are scary.
  22. Sitting with me and my brother on the 20 LL. Only three criteria: 1) you and your friend or significant other are not assholes (surly asshole acceptable) 2) you are of legal drinking age and will buy me and my brother a miller lite 3) you are not a serial killer or aspiring serial killer i can also get you into the UT club for some AC and full bar if desired.
  23. Check my pm and let me know. I’m not selling. But I need to know if my offer is going broad should you not want them.
