Nice! That’s what I’m talking about.
 
Another recommendation after buying a used car: change the cabin air filter ASAP. I think a lot of people tend to neglect that one or think the dealer is trying to make more money. The one that came out of mine was so bad it was affecting the smell of the vehicle.
 
Kirkland alcohol and wines are decent. Not top of the line, but good enough to do the job.

They get it from the big wineries and distilleries, so sometimes it’s very close to the known brands.
 
I will say Costco Canadian whiskey is quite good and their vodka is better than a lot of the stuff I drank in Russia.

The financing of the car issues bothers me, the colossal waste of time my bank caused me pisses me off to no end. Especially because I have a camera bag with a hard deadline rapidly approaching.

Well time to make a plan to build a mile crunching stealthy rig.
 
LightStream.com is an online credit union who is geared towards people with excellent credit scores and they specifically do loans that have no age or mileage limits on cars. They have been amazingly easy to deal with and approval literally within hours of applying. Great interest rates too. Under 4%.
 
Some credit unions are great. Some suck. Mine is good on cars but horrible on mortgages
 
We have USAA and Pentagon Federal. Both have made horrible mistakes in the past. They did correct their error(s) in a timely manner.
 
More important, How is the new ride?
There is a learning curve, I dont want to do too much, until I sort out the bank bs. This is the first full time all wheel drive it does some things I dont expect, no over-steer, no under-steer. I nave to down load the manuals so I can read them (I am one of those people) thank the 9 for drivers.lexus I have become an apostle of that feature set for used car buyers (partially because free information, partially to increase the value of the brand thus increasing my cars value). That sound system........OMFG..... A dropkick murphys track came on and HOLY SHIFT it sounded like some one was playing a banjo under my knee. I miss my go kart rabbit, but I know this GX will eat miles with comfort and great ease. I am shocked by the raw torque and power, you press the go pedal and it just goes I stopped at 100mph because that will do. It behaved in traffic like nothing I have driven, look an open space, whomp, FFFFF I have to power merge, WHOOMMMMP. "Becky" (that is what I call the gps voice... there Is a lot of STFU Becky I cant get over! or I know Becky, but that just inst going to happen right now! said in my car) says I need to get in the third lane, blinker (i know you saw me), space opens up and I am allowed to get over.

I am going to look at some FJ wheels and tires tomorrow.
 
Hehe. Welcome to gx life
 
I have tasked the wife to look up light trails in the area if the training she is attending gets boring. I am probably going to start a build log trying to figure out what to get to make a stealthy capable machine, it will make more sense later I just need to write it up and proof read and all that jazz. Sorted it out with my bank today, I think... Time will tell.
