    I already finished up 2020 Christmas shopping for my nephews:


    Bought one for my daughter a few years back and she’s put miles and miles on it. Good purchase.
    Awesome! Good to hear. I couldn't pass them up for $9/set on clearance. Even if I have to store them up in the rafters for the next 11 months. I want to say they were $30+ before Christmas. Now I don't have to worry about finding something for them last minute. 

    My two nephews are 4 months old and 1.5 years old. The 4 month old got a Nerf gun and the 1.5 year old received a 1990 Leaf Frank Thomas rookie card. (My favorite baseball player growing up) I knew that would make my sister laugh. My brother in law was super excited for the card. He's a huge baseball fan and can't wait for him to get a little older for Twins games and card collecting. 

    This grill might be a little more suited for them and age appropriate though......

    I couldn't have found this at a better time. 

    I donated some items at Goodwill this evening. They gave me a 50% off 1 item coupon. Low and behold I stumble upon this. I was just talking about how I wish I had another dehydrator the other day. $65 sticker still on the box. I picked it up for $5. 

    Just need to give it a wash and hopefully get this thing loaded down with my other dehydrator with some jerky this evening. 


    Update: I just pulled it out of the box and I don't think it has ever been used. Everything is in immaculate condition. All the inner cardboard pieces are still placed within the box and plastic still around the head fan unit.

    That’s what we put on the 4Runner when the factory ones had to be replaced. Much better ride and I think the ones we got were 90k mike tires. Get them from Costco you’ll save a couple hundred.

    My wife has a set of Michelin’s on her Lexus RX and while the ride quality is good, I find the tires wear out way quicker than average.

    I find that factory tires don’t last for **** anymore. Didn’t get 32,000 miles on my GMC.

    Tires that last for 60k plus miles have very little traction after the first 10 or 20k miles.  Makes them fun.

    Car has a crappy set of pirelli on it now, never again. It's just a little chevy sonic, not a sports car. 

    I can get a set of 4 defenders for the low $400 range from a local place, installed.

    The factory Pirelli tires that were on wife’s Lincoln MKX only lasted 31k miles.  Replaced with Yokohama, which are quieter and better ride.

    Rebuilt rear suspension for my Husqvarna 250, with new spring set for my weight. Bonus that the spring is a shiny yellow Ohlins.

    was skeptical of the no tread tires on the truck, but they prove to be grippy wet, dry, snow etc and handle well at 140 something mph =) wicked cheap kumhos, if she doesnt read the name on the tire you are all set ;) at 27000 miles they still look new, no wear that i can see

    $650 later the wifes car has new michelin defenders. Had a couple cam bolts needed replaced since the alignment wouldn't get in spec. All in all, very pleased with Plaza tire. 

    The michelins ride very nice too!

    We sold them before i retired From the Toyota store with very few complaints. No they don’t last at what you would think but very good tires. 
    Good enough when i had to start buying my own cars i have them on both Tacoma and Sienna. 
    They are safe and ride good.

    From the sportscar perspective, you see any tire with a 70k warranty,  run. 

    But actually there is something to be said for low traction, old tires....you slide all over and it makes you a better driver.

    Is that for a CNC horizontal milling machine?

    Going to use it with my Grizzly G0761 mill... Got my 6" vise last Friday (95# by itself). Had to machine the vise keys to fit into the table slots. Good thing I had my smaller vise setup still.
