What do you expect? He drives a two suburus now and 90% of OT got all entrepeneurial and are kick starting a new forum that is basically nothing but OT. Then there's you sitting there in your ivory tower peering in just to remind yourself that even though you could be saving even fatter stacks of cash you really aren't in as bad a trap as others. Must be nice.
Yeah, I couldn't do the new forum. I don't have much forum time anymore, new position is keeping me busy. I've got no interest in Sube's but I'm glad placman is happy for the time being.
The manual was a bit of a bold move. I'm approaching 13 years of exclusive manual transmission ownership and I can't wait for it to come to an end.
Any plans for more Forester videos? Looks like the previous ones are racking up views.
That is a bold move for him. I give it 18 months. I can't imagine going back to the man trans. It'd be fun for like 2 months and then I'd be like, over it again. But the WRX kind of HAS to be a manual. Ive considered doing a manual on a 328i for the next car since it'd be a 3 year lease but man, 3 years with the 3rd pedal is like 25 dog years.
OEM windshield plain sucks
I opted for the aftermarket for this reason only. I've had rocks hit it countless times without a single chip... If it were the OEM, I'd have a hole in it by now.
Got my first little rock chip the other day. Bummed me out of my mind. It's so small that it's not even worth having Safelite come out. I mean its like the size of a pin. Just in the right place to be in my field of vision. Fuck me. Who makes the OEM glass for VW? BMW uses Pilkington. I remember when I got a new windshield on the GTI it was St. Gobain or something.. All the same shitty glass and rocks/debris flying everywhere. No winning.
everyones gone dude, at least all *most* of the dicks who would constantly bug me. its too tame for you here now, you have no reason to return.
ITs alright, I like this vibe. I don't think I could handle another one of jock medic bro's posts about how he fucks like a champ (his words) and how hard he whacks it to football. Then there was troy, just seething with hatred and anger. This is fine.
In other news I've been thinking I will just buy this shitbox at lease end if they can come down on the residual/buyout and just drive it for like 3 more years. Cheapest option end of the day vs. getting into a new lease. I just care less and less anymore about cars. I also have this wild hair up my ass about Porsche and how I'll never be happy until I can afford a porsche, which could take years and years, so whats the point in getting some other dumb BMW when I could save my money and get a Boxster or Cayman or something?
