  1. My F150 is over 15 years old so I'm starting to get the itch for a new one. Looking at new 2020 Lariat or Platinum models as there seems to be some deals ahead of the 2021s. Based on some previous posts about engine issues would people recommend opting for the V8 versus the 3.5 V6 EcoBoost? Any smoking deals that you know of? I saw Platinums advertised in the low 50s at Maxwell this week and might go take a look. My current truck has the 5.4L V8 and (knocks on wood) I've never had any real issues. New tiers, brakes and some typical maintenance and it's been great.
  2. I sell into Retail and Tech and have not met anyone in person since March. I'm betting it's well into next year before we would be traveling to see customers again and bet many would not want to take on the liability of having vendors visit until a vaccine is in place. That said. had a shitty Q2, hit quote in Q3 and poised to have a great Q4. Then might start looking around for something new in 2021.
  3. Nice, I was out there backpacking as well this past weekend. Normally we would stay at Gage but did a hotel in Alpine this time around and had a big night at Crystal Bar.
  4. Saving money not using a realtor to buy? Did the seller's realtor agree to limit commission and lower home price because of it?
  5. I have a ton of mushrooms (Pink and Yellow ones) starting to grow in the yard. Anything I should be doing different?
  6. I think I'm going to try and trade Hunt to the guy with Chubb to upgrade my WRs. Right now I have Ridley, Kupp and J Jefferson (Hilton on the bench).
  7. Pre COVID I used my watch for text updates incognito during meetings, not it does not matter. But still stopwatch, alarms, weather, Uber, Peloton, airline updates all come in handy. Additionally, you can download music to the watch and listen while not near your phone.
  8. Well now I have: Derrick Henry Kareem Hunt Josh Jacobs Fournette Are Henry and Hunt the clear starters this week? I need to deal one of these mofos to beef up my WR sitch.
  9. Time to ride the $NKLA rocket back up to $100
  10. Well great. I was holding out hope since I have D Henry and Tannehill but I guess that going to make things tough this weekend as I'm playing the #1 team in my league.
  11. Well shit. I just looked up on TravisCAD and mine is lower but I'm not sure by how much. I did have an incorrect structure they listed as an ADU so at least that was removed so will save some money. Although now I have to pay ProTax 40% of that savings.
  12. I loaded up at $152... seems like a good idea to sell at least half. Of course it might just run to $200 because BRRRRRRT
  13. I have USAA and added a VPP line item to my other accounts. It’s $200 a year for wife rings (about $22000) and a few guns. Sounded expensive to me. I should actually review that with them since guns sit in a safe and unlikely to be stolen. I do have other jewelry but most of that sits in the safe as well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I think you can get it with 1 line as well it's just a bit higher. Get More Unlimited includes everything (not just a trial period)
  15. Any tips on using the AMEX Plat travel rewards ($250 I think) when you are not traveling? I've been trying to justify this card this year where I'm not really traveling much. On top fo the Uber monthly credits you now have what $20 in streaming and $20 in wireless credits? I've found that through VZ I can take advantage of the wireless credits because to do that I need to pay with the AMEX which would essentially remove the already $20 credit I get for auto pay. What are the others I'm missing to try and make this worthwhile?
  16. You really have to stay on top of this shit. Through VZ Wireless I had a Disney+ promo but separately paid for Hulu Live and HBO Max. After doing some research the new VZW plans give you access to Disney+, ESPN+ and Hulu for free (not a promo), plus I can get 50% off other device plans, Apple Music and 500GB of cloud storage. This will not cover my access of live content outside of E+ but the 50% off my iPad plan covers the cost difference and I now get Disney and ESPN for free. I also have AT&T Fiber for internet and while I'm on a old plan that does not get HBO Max I'm going to call and see if I can get on a newer plan that does so I don't have to pay that 15 a month. Has anyone had success doing this or is it only when you switch?
  17. Just sold my $SNVP lot at .0008... may sit and wait for .0004 or 5 again. Other than that I'm out of stock ideas...
  18. This. I have him as my backup but keep playing Wentz. Not the best matchup but is Tannehill the better start? I’ve also got D Henry in my lineup so hoping he bounces back a bit this week. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. $NKLA not doing so hot... Time to double down!
  20. Nah, no way putting in an out clause that keeps me from recognizing it as ARR... without that no reason to even entertain the deal.
  21. Had a guy take a look and thinks it's Cinch bugs that are doing this. Treated for them and a fungicide.
  22. I went ahead and bought a little more premarket to get my avg entry down. I'm still willing to see what happens.
  23. I just got an XDS. Not sure how much I’ll carry with it but it’s way smaller than my Sig. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  24. Have you tried the schools or are you just basing this off the "Great Schools" rating. Keeling magnet is the top middle in Austin. LASA over here too. My kids are not school aged but from my research if you break down the schools performance by certain Demographics they perform very well. And traffic is bad for sure depending on where you live... if you choose Lakeway and complain about getting around in central Austin then that is on you. I'm in central Austin and I don't seem to have much issue getting around where I need to go.
