  1. Man I don't hate on anyone. But Denver is putting Watson on Rudy and Rudy is calling for the ball deep in the post but no one will pass it to him. 😭😭. Edit nvm that's Justin Holiday and it was a switch.
  2. Is there a player in the NBA that would not say that Joker is the best player in the NBA? This guy is unbelievable.
  3. The mom in the Amazon Prime stay at home dad/coffee commercial would get it.
  4. Stoked to watch Everything Puppies
  5. Still pretty new to the soft top thing with the Bronco. It is pretty fun, though and I'm kind of falling in love with the vehicle and starting to tweak stuff. I think I'm getting addicted. Crap. So far I think the Bestop top would be fine. It would be similar to the hard top with the front two panels and middle panel being off. The soft top in "position 1" would also be similar but this is definitely the worst look of the 3 in that position imo. But I'm driving so IDGAF how it looks. To take the soft top fully down you have to remove the rear 3 windows. I've never owned a Jeep but apparently this is pretty standard practice? I timed it, it took me and 2 minutes to get all 3 removed and about 7 minutes to put them back. Also I stand corrected on the engine which explains the gas mileage. I thought I had the middle engine but I don't. The Wildtrak has a 2.7 6 twin turbo putting out 330 HP. Definitely need that for my trips to Kroger and the school drop off line. At least I know it can haul my smoker right?
  6. How are things on the island Hank? I have seen recent videos of Front St and while it looks like progress is being made...still sobering as hell.
  7. That's why I just have mine on a shitty Amazon cabinet. That and I can't afford a 4k salamander cabinet.
  8. I just finished the season last night. I enjoyed it. I know it has been called out but I'm going to piggyback. The using the nanofibers thing to quietly murder everyone onboard and completely destroy a 120000 ton steel ship while being confident that they wouldn't destroy an 8" hard drive was an interesting plot choice. Almost up there with JCVD punching a snake in the face in Hard Target.

  10. I think he said "I think they're saying Fuck You" that's what I heard anyway.
  11. The crowd was chanting Fuck You Reg-gie! Hart told him what they were saying. Crew still playing dumb. Somehow I don't think the guys in Studio J will be complicit.
  12. Holy shit that was great. I was going to say how is the crew not even going to acknowledge this chant? Hart did it for them. 🤣🤣
  13. My understanding is that if you order a hard top from FMC and add the option of a soft top, they provide you with the Bestop top on a pallet. However the Bestop top is different from the factory top that comes on the vehicle if you just order a soft top. I believe that is a Ford part. I did some looking around prior to deciding that I wanted the factory soft top, and the thing people don't like about the Bestop vs factory top is that the Bestop doesn't fold all the way down in the back like the factory does. But yes they made this way harder than it should be. https://havocoffroad.com/production/bestop-trektop-slantback-soft-top_ho_05/r/390x293/fff/80/c03327f0ca5ae6c2d90d4e3835b913b8.jpg
  14. Seems mostly like a Toyota thread but I'll chime in with a few thoughts and food for thought on the Bronco. I bought one in October. 4 door hard top Wildtrack with the Sasquatch package. No I will probably not ever use some of those features unless I get stuck in the snow but all of that aside it is a bad ass vehicle and I love it. Mine has the 3.6 turbo and it moves. The gas mileage sucks but it does have an eco mode and I don't drive a ton of miles. It is finally warm enough here that I started messing with the top panels. I wanted the hard top because of where I live and also because at the time Ford wasn't selling the factory hard top and I read that if they were going to in the future it would be 5k+. My plan was to buy a factory soft top on the secondary market and swap out the hard top for the soft top in the summer. Found a soft top for $1k and grabbed it. Changed them out today and it wasn't easy. I found removing the hard top panels for the front and second row pretty easy and a one person job. We'll see how much I like the soft top in the summer but right now I'm thinking sticking with the hard top may be the way to go. One thing that is fucking stupid is Ford does not give you all of the parts you need for the soft top if you get a hard top even though they all fit on the vehicle with the hard top on. They don't even sell a conversation kit. There's about $300 worth of bolts and brackets you have to source on your own to install the soft top. Pic with the roof off today.
