Not everybody will go to Buc-ee's
Only way to have a store that survives in New Kent is if you offer both live bait and hair cuts

sometimes, especially Memorial Day weekend, they are the only option
First trip I took the neighborhood kids to Water Country I absentmindedly set up the trip for Memorial Day weekend. Took 5 the whole way because 60 was being partially repaved. 64 out of the question. Nice trip but definitely added time to the journey there and back

probably an unwritten rule or something
whatever baseball fans use to discriminate against people whose vibe they dislike

We traded in a '23 a few months back
Had a lot of features but the interior build quality suffered to add those gadgets. Wind noise was pretty up there too, always sounded like there was a window cracked or a door partially open. I didn't like it, wife was proud of it but really wanted a hybrid, so she traded it for a '23 RX350 Hybrid. Nice and quiet and similar gadgetry... electronic features within the boundaries of taste

any word on what drove that deicision?
I use a media server so I don't think it will affect me but that is a strange feature to remove

How many miles?
Over the winter I snagged on a '05 6 speed with 194k. I have read that K series consume a lot of oil and am finding it to be true

I've done it a couple of times, there are kits available for vinyl/leather
basically a patch kit if needed, crack filler, cleaner, and appropriate dye. It's a long technical process but straightforward, not something you should be afraid to try. If you only do a small section beware because it will look newer than the rest. If you can take the seat out and put it on a bench that makes everything a lot easier. No need to pull the cover though unless rebuilding a cushion as above

there's definitely pics of me grilling during a snow storm
Wife thought it was madness but the comments stopped when she was eating grilled salmon and hobo pack vegetables in February

every two years for brake fluid is nice and recommended
Plugs maybe every 50 to 100k. The age of fuel injection has really lengthened that interval, assuming all other components are doing what they are supposed to do
Glad you have been active with suspension component replacement. Ball joints and shocks, and control arms are critical pieces that you need to work exactly how they are supposed to when a crisis comes up like emergency braking or evasive steering

Saw some super sick nostalgic paint schemes on twitter yesterday
One feeder series car running a rainbow warrior livery as well as Dale Jr.'s #3 Sun Drop scheme. Both looked really sharp

Coax is usually just beneath the surface
And there could well be three or four coax runs with three disconnected and one operational. If they think there is trouble with one they just slap another in. Frustrating for both contractors and homeowners

I have bought print on demand shirts before
But I expect the supplementary income folks either have a popular design like the ones you see on network ads or they are producing/pirating unlicensed, poorly protected, or straight up counterfeit designs. I have seen more counterfeit than real in the band t shirt genre

How do you mean? Nothing happens
Might get a glass dropped or a busted lip, which doesn't involve script writing
