  1. I actually thought a vehicle crashed either outside or into my house for a split second. Never felt anything like it. It shook my whole house for a 10-15 seconds and then continued to shake at a lesser amount for a little longer. If that was a 4.1, I can't imagine what a 6-8 would feel like.
  2. OP was focused on guns that wouldn't require suspenders to carry.
  3. I had to replace my valve cover gaskets today. Here's what regular oil changes look like at 163k miles. Sorry to hijack your thread @GlockSpock. Did you find a RAV4 yet?
  4. My wife won't let me sell Ravioli which is why we've had it 13 years. With the seats folded down you'll be shocked how much it can haul. Keeping the spare tire on the rear door frees up a ton of cargo space inside. We were able to haul a dining room table inside ours.
  5. That seems a little high for what appears to be a base model. Also, not sure if you want 4x4 or not. You could likely save a little with 2 wheel drive. I think you can find something equivalent for $8-9k. I wouldn't be scared to go a little higher on miles if you had maintenance records. Sometimes lower mileage is actually worse because it can indicate a lot of city driving. Another tip, you can enter the VIN number on Toyotas website and it should show you any work that's ever been done at a Toyota dealership. Including any recalls.
  6. I'd like to offer an unsolicited piece of advice from someone that owns a 2012. Try to find one that had the optional V6. The MPG will be slightly worse but it will have a lot more power and it was the more reliable engine. We have the 2.5L 4 cylinder and I sometimes wish we had splurged when we bought this one new in 2012. Some of the 2.5L's burn oil. My FIL has a 2012 with the 2.5L and his burns a ton of oil. I think it's mainly from folks that tried to do 10k miles oil changes. I've always changed ours every 3-5k. We love ours though. We're at 163k and the only parts that have failed is a radiator hose and alternator. She's easy to work on too.
  7. Totally normal behavior. Nothing to see here.
  8. Accidentally? I doubt it. Likely a test. I wonder how much insider trading has gone on the last 48 hours.

    This reminded me that I spoke to OhShoot on the phone 2-3 weeks ago. He's doing well. I need to make a point to call him more often.
  10. I'm getting really tired of both sides cherry picking examples to prove that their side is less violent or extreme than the other. There are PLENTY of examples of each side acting like idiots. Party politics is destroying the country. Those that repeatedly engage in it, and blindly support their leader, are part of the problem.
  11. Not quite that black and white. Elon was once a hero to that crowd for various reasons. Over the years, he's shifted into whatever he is today. It has been wild to watch public opinion of him shift on places like Reddit. I never understood why they were so in love with him before.
  12. I wonder if the same would apply to smelling like booze. Or if their issue is because of federal laws related to weed and buying guns.
  13. I agree but I think he should keep the Bug. I bet he looks cute in it.
  14. My cheap Bersa and Kahr handguns were more reliable than my Sig. We have so many high quality options now that I see zero reason to buy more Sig products.
  15. Why would anyone want email notifications? I get enough emails already. Anytime you log in it tells you what notifications you have at the top of the page.
