  1. No kidding. I'm blown away by these trucks and SUVs (some of which are the most common vehicles on the road) that cost $50k and well beyond in some cases.
  2. If only they knew it got hot in Texas before they built it... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Is everyone on the team high? This is terrible Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. My condo in '04 is up 5% after stagnating last year. Could be worse. It's 10% less than the lazy appraiser came up with several months ago so I don't see a point in protesting.
  5. In a rarity for an automotive magazine, this is actually a pretty good list of options. https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/g6474/10-best-cars-for-a-one-car-garage/?source=nl&utm_source=nl_rdt&utm_medium=email&date=041319&src=nl&utm_campaign=16563101&fbclid=IwAR0-KblNYxlPPP394_E9Ii2W2OVqiYyo1oJJew2IED7Zot6ixBlCzW-f298&slide=1
  6. Criquet, b draddy, and Johnnie O are all good. I also like Greyson for golf polos. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Is that why Northshore next door has a design that steps back and away from town lake? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Is this because capitol view or a different ordinance? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  10. WTF was that altuve. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Checking in for the season which is either doomed or will result in our second world series championship in three years.
  12. Wow, great photos! Looks amazing.
  13. I'd cross shop a Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo, Cayenne Turbo S and E63S if I had a big budget for a daily. However, given the title of the thread, give me $15 million for a McLaren F1 and I'll uber, bus, bike or walk where ever I couldn't take it.
  14. Curious to hear how your trip goes. I'm going with a group and staying at Whistling Straits 3 nights in June. We're only playing the four courses at the resort though. Wisconsin seems like a strong summer golf destination with Whistling Straits, Erin Hills, Sand Valley and Lawsonia all having a good reputation.
  15. New (Miami blue?) GT3RS spotted today on bee caves and 360. Still had dealer plates. While I’m trying to post pics on tapa for the first time, here’s a McLaren 675LT I saw on dirty 6th several months ago. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. He is referring to pre-tax IRA or 401(k) contributions. You're right though... tough to max out at that income level, especially with a family, even in a LCOL area.
  17. I hit the first stage of my goal this morning. I've dropped 10 lbs, down to 199, something I wanted to do by the end of January (a solid 0 days to spare). My progress slowed the last 7-10 days, so this week I redoubled my efforts to avoid bread/pasta/rice, allowing me to knock out the last couple pounds. First time I've been under 200 lbs since early in the summer. Not everything in my closet fits again, but I'm no longer on the verge of needing a bunch of new clothes. I want to drop at least another 10, preferably 20+, but I feel good about the progress so far.
  18. +1 I have a pushcart and walk whenever I'm not playing with my lazy friends. My track is about a 7-mile loop. On top of the extra calorie burn, I'm playing for free (no cart fee) and I don't drink when I walk, saving more calories and money.
  19. What about getting a personal trainer once a week? They'll give you workouts to do on your own the rest of the work and will personalize them to fit your goals.
  20. I’m down 5 lbs in the first 10 days. I want to lose another 20-25lbs. On past diets I’ve tracked my meals in detail with MyFitnessPal. This time I’m trying to cut a couple bad things and take time to appreciate smart choices, even if it’s a small thing. I have a spreadsheet on my phone where I note if I had alcohol, sweets and worked out each day. It’s a lot easier to manage and seeing a bunch of days in a row without sweets or booze gets me to say no just to keep the streak alive. I’m not tracking it, but I’ve been good about avoiding bread which has probably made the most difference. I even ordered burgers and sandwiches wrapped in lettuce a couple times. Surprisingly not terrible but that isn’t a long term lifestyle change I can make. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. You say that, but if you were like me, you would have nearly died of cedar by the turn.
  22. Checking in here for the first time. I’ve cycled weight loss/gain my whole life. I gained about 20lbs last year and now I’m around my high at 208. I need to get back down to at least 190 to get my clothes fitting well again. Ultimately I’d like to get back down to 175-180 which is about the best I’ve done. I got back into the gym last month but really it’s my diet and portion control that kill me. My self control with food is terrible and my pregnant wife has us eating a lot of pizza and whatbutger. Who am I to deny her?!?? I’m afraid the poor diet is just going to get worse when our girl arrives in February. Since we’re going to be so tired and busy, my plan is to keep the fridge stocked with snap meals. If I could get on that train for a while, it will help immensely. Good luck everyone.
