Unfortunately, yes. That, and these autos are just that good. I’ve thought about getting a new manual mustang. But I have a hard time buying the slower car, even though it might be more fun to drive

I naturally smell bad, and routinely jump into pools backwards, fully clothed. This was the only logical vehicle choice for me.

It was missing 200hp and I didn’t want to add a blower when i could get a hellcat and mod that. Don’t get me wrong, the SS is a great car. If I had long trips to take for work, this would fit the bill. The mag ride might be more comfortable on the road compared to my Audi. The car sounds great, very good build quality, and interior. It’s worlds better than the dodge as far as fit and finish. It was just not aggressive enough for me. I was shocked when I matted the go pedal and the car barely chirped the tires. That car would have been perfect with a small tvs blower and the 10 speed auto. Or at least the 8 speed.

Definitely Gonna do some mods to the hellcat. I have an intake and wider rear wheels with drag radials. And less than 300 miles on the car. I’m sure I’ll pulley it, with fuel upgrades and change the rear gearing. Right now, my Audi would own this car.

Went with the yacht club interior. The seats are nuts. I have to figure out how to program them. Shit, how the fuck do you resize these?

I traded my vette for a chevy SS. had the SS for 4 months, and it wasn't for me. so I traded that in for a charger hellcat. I haven't driven it yet due to the weather here. I did let my kids vote on the license plate. they picked "gram jam" long story

to each their own. you may not have been around when station wagons were not cool. yep, they're still not cool. and this has tons more room than any station wagon ever made. its a 5000lb truck, that's meant to get my 5 kids around in style/comfort, with all the amenities you can think of. its not meant to be a sports car, or drive fast. I have four other cars for doing that. although, I will say this thing moves pretty damn good. with 450hp and 510tq, I will have zero issues rolling out on plenty of what's out there. as far as depreciating $10k per year, I have no doubt it will do that for the first few years. I'm not overly concerned about that, which is why I didn't get a 10 year old cool used wagon, or run-of-the-mill suburban

Honestly the wheels look legit in person. They set the car off

It’s nice. They delivered the car and Handle all the maintenance for 4 years. There’s also a bunch of stupid dining clubs you get access to, which actually sounds horrible to me.

No idea how to resize these god damn pics. If nothing else, I’ve included the links to the pics, hopefully those are bigger. Either way, I’m pumped. This is the first lincoln I’ve owned and I’m impressed so far. Having owned an Escalade in the past, and almost buying another one, this thing is light years ahead of gm. The interior in this car is every bit as good as my Audi

It’s snowing here, so I have only driven it 5 miles. The kids love it, styling is incredible, the car is drop dead gorgeous, and has a ton of amenities. I’ll update as i can put more miles on it. It’s definitely bigger than the gm variant, which is what we were after, with 5 kiddos. And there’s no doubt this car would lay the smack down on my raptor. hopefully these pics work, otherwise I'm just going to shut down my computer and smash it.

I'd rock a powerwheels, and add another 12v battery inline. the plastic frame will handle it just fine. I have a mini-pocket 4 wheeler for my kids, but you are going to spend $500+ on one of those, with gas/disc brakes/etc. razor makes tons of electric options. my kids have loved the krazy kart, made by razor. its a drift cart. super fun, and you can drift the hell out of it. long story short, there are 1000's of options out there to get into a good electric/gas powered vehicle for kids 8-12 years old, for $250-700. there were NONE of these options when we were kids. you had to rig up a lawnmower engine onto a metal frame, find wheels to fit, and figure brakes out. by the time you do all that stuff, you're better off just spending $500 on a store bought one

sometimes when the plane landing is a bit rough, as I exit the plane and pass the pilot standing at the door, i'll say "wow, that landing was a bit rough, you must have taken it off autopilot", and then I hand him a piece of trash the stewardess missed. that is all.

Yes. The global period is 90 days. All doctor visits within that period are covered under the cost of the surgery, which gets billed from the day the surgery occurred. X-rays, therapy visits, and other lab tests are not included in this. But the physician's bill is covered under the cost of the surgery. Most people don't know that. When they see a bill for $50k from a surgery/hospital stay, they don't realize the surgeon is paid between $1200-$3000. This covers the surgery, visits while in the hospital, and the next 90 days. Out of that $$, 30-35% pays for overhead, and the taxman gets another 35%. It's a great career, and a comfortable living, but you need to move a high volume of patients to be successful. Glad everything worked out for you. A femur fracture in a young, active patient, is a serious injury that not everyone makes a full recovery from

There are unlimited combinations of insurance plans, coverage, reimbursement, etc etc. I couldn’t tell you the first thing about how much a visit is going to cost, or a certain test, or procedure. Because it varies for each and every patient based on their insurance. It’s not my job to be able to tell you that, it just isn’t. It’s my job to deliver the very best care. Avoid the doctor who can quote you the price of every test or visit/procedure based on your insurance. The problem is the insurance company. Plain and simple. And I have no control over that. Every patient who comes to see me gets the same tests ordered, and the same procedure for the problem they are seeing me for. Regardless of their insurance. Our office visits are billed based on what takes place during the visit. If the patient asks extra questions, the level of billing goes up. Sucks, but it has to. If not, it’s considered just as fraudulent to underbill as it is to overbill. In the past, I would bill based on how long I spent with the patient. I would cut certain patients a little bit of a break if they were in a shitty spot. You just can’t do that anymore, and the computerized electronic medical records prevent it. It’s not how I saw practicing, but it is what it is.

I’m assuming you had tons of therapy visits after the new year for that fracture. Those would go on the next years bills. The first 90 days after the surgery are covered under the cost of the surgery. A lot of people don’t realize that. If I do surgery on New Year’s Eve, everything goes on the previous year, except therapy. So if a patient needs no therapy, they will usually only get one bill from our hospital. It’s dated the day of the surgery. I remember your thread on that injury. That’s a bad injury to have and a horrible time to have it. For a femur fracture, you’re usually going to have visits and X-ray charges beyond 90 days though. The deductible is one reason people go nuts at the end of the year wanting an mri of every body part and surgery on everything. It’s crazy every year. I was operating into the evening the Friday before New Years. And deductibles here in Wisconsin frequently go above $10k. Total bullshit for blue collar hard workers

See your family dr. If you don't have one, you need one.

Don't take this the wrong way, but:: Nothing was hidden from you. You just didn't do any research. You wouldn't drop your car off at the shop without inquiring about an estimate. Why do people go nuts when they're asked to pay money for their well being? You could have asked ahead of time, what the tests cost, and you could have checked with your insurance company to see what would be covered. People do that ALL the time. Christ, $600 in testing isn't worth potentially living without terrible chronic sinus problems? Wtf is wrong with people? Yet people spend $1000 on an iPhone, $500 a month on car parts, etc etc. the human body is the most complex machine ever imagined. Why does it seem nuts to set aside $300/month to maintain the health of that machine.

Call the office and axe them. Quickest way to figure out exactly what’s going on. They have people in the office who do exactly this. FYI—the interpretation is what the doctor interprets and involves any decision making. Of course that would be where the highest cost is.

How bout them buckeyes. Awesome win. Big 10 is rolling this year. As much as jt is not a game changer, he has had a great career at osu.

The money I save for my kids will offset any increased amount they will have to pay in the future, to pay back the government. Some may see this as selfish, but at this point I just don’t give a fuck what others think. I’ve paid more into the pool than 99.9% of people. Empathy and charity are great, but at some point self preservation trumps the touchy feely sensation I get when I see someone argue about paying $10 for their Obamacare bill, carrying a $1000 iPhone 60. I’m not going to wait around and celebrate throwing 40% of my money down the drain. My kids will be fine. When they come back and complain that I should have paid more taxes into the system instead of saving for their education/future, then I’ll come back and bump this thread to tell you that you were right.

This is a country who’s success as a world power is dwindling. That success was brought about through hard work and innovation. Hard work and innovation were rewarded with money, success, and an overall better life quality than was present where our immigrants came from. My grandfather was one of these men who came here from Greece and enjoyed the success of his hard work. Even better, his children were successful and grandchildren even more so. That concept has escaped the previous/current generation. Money is spent on the less fortunate, Ill equipped. This sounds horrible, but it is the exact opposite of what has made this country successful. It is the opposite of the law of nature, and thus reversing evolution. No amount of taxes I pay will change this. My money is better served enriching the lives of my children, ensuring they will have every advantage they need to succeed. Both monetarily and through doing my best to raise them right. Bottom line::: If I can save $30k in taxes, that money will be better served spent how I see fit as opposed to some fuckstick in Washington. I wish I had ways of paying less taxes, but i don’t. I have no fancy deductions, and no shelter from the careless spending of my hard earned money.

It just wasn’t fast enough. I thought I would like totally flying under the radar, but it just wasn’t for me. I don’t drive long distances for work, so I don’t really care about a super nice, comfortable daily, that is relatively quick. That’s the ss. The interior is very nicely done. The mag ride is simply amazing. No lie, on touring mode this car was more comfortable than my Audi. It also sounded pretty good with the dual mode exhaust. Stereo sucked, and I hate chevys infotainment set up. But the car handles very well for a four door and feels much smaller than a 4 door should. In the end, I wanted 200 more hp. Sounds crazy, but that’s what the car needs. I couldn’t even get the car to do a decent burnout. With the charger, I got 300 more hp. With the option for more

Traded in my vette for a Chevy ss. Owned the ss for 4 months and it wasn’t for me. I traded it in about a month ago for a hellcat charger. I was only able to get about 300 miles on the charger before putting it away for the winter, but pretty sure it’s a keeper. My wife and I ordered an ‘18 navigator, loaded. Should be here within the next 6 weeks. Might trade my gtr in this summer for something more exotic. Trying my best to boost the economy :dumb:
