Yep, this was the longest I've ever belonged to a group...Amazon is a close 2nd. Sad thing is I rarely come here for auto related things, more just local advice and gossip.

MRM has been on steady decline since they burned down their lodge and were bought out by Vail Resorts. I'd be pissed if I bought a season pass. I don't think MRM will go under for a while, they will just be bought out by a shitty venture capital firm that owns malls or something. Snow Trails started blowing back when we had the cold snap in November and stockpiled their snow so they could open for Xmas break. Last I heard they had to limit ticket sales because they were beyond capacity (everybody jumping ship from MRM). I wish the hill wasn't so small, the lodge has so much personality and their shop is actually quite decent.

Not a pretty game but they did make adjustments and changes. Marvin Harrison Jr is going to be a good replacement for Garrett/Olave

Usually get our trees from Lowe's but their selection was rather lacking. Anyone know of farms that have a good selection? Looking for a taller tree this year, prolly a 12 footer.

I don't think this is a good measure of safety, anyone should know that a drunk idiot almost always survives the crash.

Its the new discrimination. Have the vaccine? Come on in. No vaccine? You can wait outside or eat in your area.

The vaccination is not a silver bullet. If your wife is that much 'at-risk' then don't fucking take her out? This is not a flesh eating virus, its a weird cold at best.

The vaccination is not a silver bullet.

The more I watch him I tend to agree. Sure when he's on the money he has a great arm...but you take Njigba, Wilson and Olave out of the equation and I think he falls flat. We got out coached and out played, especially on Defense. Oregon did nothing fantastic, they just played with precision and consistency.

This 100%. The fact that countries and companies are denying service without it doesn't sit well with me.

What if you have already gone thru COVID? You and your significant others actually contracted COVID? We spent days or weeks of feeling like shit only to be told "you have to get a vaccination?" I already had that shit, I have antibodies that are most likely superior to the vaccine. I voted for Joe but there is going to be a severe split in America.

Yo mama so ugly, her portraits hang themselves.

While it wouldn't surprise me they keep a 1-loss Clemson in the top 4 and bump us to 5...I think in the event of an upset we stay at 4 and Clemson moves to 5 or even 6 and A&M moves up; people seem to like them this year.

Hard start and rough idle in a diesel I'd at least check the battery voltage and replace the fuel filter...

Turbos are the big item, seems to affect earlier years rather than later but all the 4.0t cars can develop the problem if they hadn't had the new oil screen and fittings applied. I saw a couple cars on CarFax that listed the turbos having been replaced, That would give me a little peace of mind. In the end the if the turbos fail it's not super catastrophic. You can buy upgraded turbos for less than 2k and the install is a DIY. Other than that oil separators, turbo coolant o-rings, and motor mounts are the main issues, with turbos and thermostats being less common.
