Armada Platinum, captain’s chairs, interior lighting package and some dealer add ons like tint, floor mats, roof rails and one or two other things. Got the price down to $47.5k. MSRP was around $62-62k. Couldn’t get QX80 much below 70k, with similar specs. MSRP on that one was about $80k.Wow, that's a great deal. I would have gone for the Armada as well given that price difference. We were looking right when the Armadas first hit dealer lots and they weren't discounting anywhere near that much, so I stuck with the Infiniti. Sticker on the truck we bought was right around $71k vs. $63k on the Nissan and discounts were comparable on each.

I don't think we brought this thread over.
If you are expert in the category, start typing.
I am grabbing some dough from a local bakery. I know there is some art to handling it. What flour am I looking to use?
Sauce - What ya got.
I am cooking on the green egg with pizza stone. Going to grab a bunch of ingredients and let people make their own. One gal is vegetarian, so I guess I will grab some shrooms and shit.
You want 00 flour. It makes all the difference in the world. I like to roast cherry tomatoes with garlic, put it in the blender with a little salt and use that as sauce. It's thicker than traditional sauce, but that is how i like it. -

Sounds like I need to go test drive some Land Cruisers before my wife ignores me and inevitably gets another QX80.
LC isn't going to have quite as much space inside if that's an issue, but you can never go wrong with a Land Cruiser.

How did you spec out the Armada? Price difference is more like 7-8k on comparably equipped vehicles.Just went through this with my wife’s vehicle. She had a BMW X5. It had 3rd row seats, but they were tiny jump seats. Looked at Armada, Yukon, Tahoe, Escalade, Explorer and QX80. Drivewise, the Armada and QX80 seemed to handle the best. Wife liked the interior of the Armada and exterior of QX80. The differences between the two were very minor. She decided that since she is inside the car more often than outside looking at it, she chose the Armada. Final price was $22k less than the QX80.
Third row seats in it are fine. I’m not the typical Surly 6’6”, just 6’ and there is plenty of room. Probably wouldn’t want to make a cross county trip in the third row, but it wouldn’t be a problem for 3-4 hours. -

Pretty much everything I've from these guys is spot on.
Has a very tart cherry taste to the wine.
Also was able to bag a case of Caymus that was mispriced at Spec's the other day for the princely sum of $79 total. Guess the cashier didn't realize the mistake.
You got a case of Caymus for less than the winery charges for one bottle? Well done, good sir.

Ms. Scorpio needs a new ride. Currently have a QX80. She likes it and wants to get another one. But I come here for advice on other gigantic SUVs. Where I'm coming from:
I used to have a Tahoe, I like the QX80 way better than any Chevy, but I haven't driven the new Suburbans/Yukons.
No Expedition because I used to have an Explorer and every other day something would break or fall off that piece of shit. At least Henry Ford is burning in hell.
I like Toyotas and am interested in the Sequoia, but have never driven one.
I like the the QX80 more than the GX460 or LX570.
I am intrigued by the GLS 450, Ms. Scorpio used to have a little Mercedes SUV that was alright.
I really like the Volvo XC90s, but they are too small. I'm not interested in any of the smaller SUVs since it needs to be big enough for me to fuck my wife in the back of and we both weigh 500 pounds.
Thanks in advance.
Wife had a Tahoe prior to her 17 QX80. We test drove Sequioa, Tahoe, Yukon, Infiniti and Armada. Didn't even look at Fords because wife didn't like how they looked. Did not look at MB GLS because of price and quality issues they've had with those.
At the end of the day, we obviously bought the QX. Armada and Yukon Denali were the runners up. Sequoia will run forever but we hated the interior and ride quality, and I'm a big fan of Toyota.

I'm in a similar boat. Wife has had her Armada for 10+ years, and trying to decide new Armada vs QX80 vs dropping down to something smaller. It's my understanding that the QX80 isn't due for a major redesign for several years, so that might help if she needs to have the latest stuff. For whatever reason, I prefer the Armada styling to the QX, but that's probably because I'm cheap.
And Land Cruisers are awesome, but holy shit, the prices. And if you gave me my pick, it'd be an FJ55.
QX80 just got a design refresh, so I think you're right that a major redesign is at least 3-4 years away. We likely would have gotten an Armada instead of the QX80 but my wife did not like the two tone paint scheme on the Armada. And there are a few things you can't get on the Armada, but not as many as you might think. And fuel economy is better than expected. Wife gets 17 mpg in mixed driving around town.

Is it possible to play at times when less regs are at the tables? Would require more time on nights/weekends, but I would think that would help mix up the games favorably for you.

If he's such a good dude, why did he fuck Pete's wife?George, the guy who plays Lief was a bartender at Lovejoys back in the early 2000s. Really good dude.- 1

Get a bigger dog.May be getting a beagle later this year. Anyone have good/bad experiences? Two children. Wife likes small dogs. -
ER is great for the price. I need to buy a couple cases.I liked it but not smooth like Eagle Rare. Pretty bad hangover as well. I'd rather horde Eagle Rare as my weekend drinker than buy McKenna BIB. -
That's a great price on the AE Rye.astros not warriors
any thoughts on these?

Kept meaning to look her up and see what her real name is but kept forgetting to do so. I know that is a made up name on the show. They seem to use real comics names and then for some use made up names.
Do love the show and recently caught his actual recent stand up on HBO. Seems like he got away from being the clean comic, at least somewhat. Don't expect a dichotomy like with Bob Saget but still he throws around several fucks.
His Enrique Iglesias concert bit is one of the funniest things I've ever heard.

Been using a Machine Era Ti5 Slim Wallet for about a year and I'm never going back to the Costanza wallet I used to have. Fits unobtrusively in my front pocket and carries everything I need. And it opens bottles, too.

That sounds like the worst car search ever. Gas mileage is your primary driver?

Mmmm. She looks just like a woman that works out at the same gym as I do. Wrong state, though.

Agree that nothing on the podcast convinced me he was innocent, but they produced enough info that I questioned whether he was guilty. However I fully admit that I don't have strong feelings on the matter either way.
I do disagree with a system that allows for retrials 18 years after the original trial. I don't think anyone's memory is solid enough to withstand questioning after close to 20 years. The state should just get him to plead guilty for a lesser charge with a sentence of time served. Both sides can declare victory and move on. Otherwise they will waste taxpayer money on a new trial that will most likely result in a not guilty verdict.
This is pretty much where I am. He very well might have done it, but I don't think that was really conclusively proven by the state. Their case was paper thin and he likely walks with a competent defense attorney.

Went to a buddy's place in Jackson Hole over the weekend for a last minute spring ski trip. His place sits on a little creek that flows into the Snake River called Fish Creek. We had a little time to kill Sunday afternoon so I went rummaging through his barn and found some waders, a TFO NXT Combo, and a fly box filled of a hodge-podge of flies. Tied on a big stone fly nymph and a zebra midge dropper and decided to head out and make a few casts. Caught this 18.5" cutter on the stone fly nymph on 4th cast.
So are you Hollywood Colt? Trying to get my names straight with people who changed them.

Yep, this is how I do it. Invert the platesetter so it's legs point down, then put the stone on top of that.
