Obviously the most ideal way to go IF you have the money to invest in another set of wheels/tires or the space to store them. I used to always do this on the BMW I had. OE wheels wrapped in performance summer rubber, winters on steelies. Storage was the issue and had to end up moving whichever...

Just caught that you are $500 additional, not a total payment of $500 ($212 min., $288 balance). In that case, definately make the $500 additional principal only. Arrange to pay the $500 15 days out of sync with regular payment so both payments don't get lumped together and pay interest.

Well, it kinda does. However, Troy Built 490XP (with the Honda engine) has 4 different blades to choose from. Usually, the blade from the manufacturer (or their supplier) will be the best performing, and in this case, I would suggest getting the dedicated mulching blade if you primarily mulch...

Then do that. See if you can make the additional $288 over minimum as a principal only payment. Granted at 1.99% it won't net much, but no interest is no interest.

Sticker shows ZP, so those are run-flats.

Back to, what does your gut say? Or what makes you comfortable/happy/relieved/not stressed?

What mower?

Totally agree. You are in essence paying 1.99% to use someone else's money, however, you can earn twice that if thrown into a 4% (doable) interest savings account and pay the minimum each month. If you need to sell, you have assets to cover the solar if no buyer wants to assume. Or, hopefully...

How loud are they that you need hearing protection when you water them? 😁

Fair enough. In situations like that understood that you do need to make those kind of concessions due to market pressures, no matter how bad of a taste it leaves in your mouth. Which way does your gut have you leaning? Paying off the loan or establishing an account to draw from and make some...

I know it's a little late, but I would have NEVER assumed a secondary loan on a house deal, especially a temporary one (equity over time sucks right now too unless cash sale) and much less for something like solar. What is that paying for electricity each month? You get anything for putting...

I was going for whether or not your engine runs high oil temps overall vs. temp difference between oils. If it does run hot temps with your driving style, higher HTHS will be your friend. Low Noack is beneficial for high temps, but with 2K per year (which is when I would OCI), and no top up, it...

You need this. And this.

If they work, who cares whats engraved on them or not? Thats where I fall, especially if I can get good ones at a decent price buying used. Who knows, maybe someday I'll get mine engraved with "Mom" and a heart 😁.

The GLI will need new shoes around fall-time. I'm choosing neither the Contis or Michelins this time around and going with some P-Zeros.

Good on ya for coming out of the shadows. Now the fun begins. Couple things I would look for in your application. Primarily, HTHS, secondary, SAPS, tertiary, viscosity (within range). Not familiar with offerings across the pond, but the Ravenol you are using is pretty good from what I hear. Do...

Spicy. Same binder/filler as a Feral Flying Pig which really opened my eyes. LE from 2023?

And they still have this ugliness on the front to remind folks coming or going.

Depends. I usually do hand-formed burgers and throw them on the Weber (charcoal of course). Let the drippings flare a bit and give them some char. Pre-formed, store bought patties (oh the blasphemy!) like for parties and such, go on the griddle as I can cook 18 at a shot. I've recently done a...

Here ya go. And at my son's lounge, all members that got one of the KKPs was put in a raffle for the box. Guy that won sold it to another member for $250 :oops:. For a box. Wow.
