for example when I'm on the lake and there's no ice to be had anywhere near by it's nice for my beers to stay cold all day while my friends coolers burn out and piss water everywhere it's worth it. I took some beers home we had left over from the company Christmas party last Thursday. it still has ice in it and the beer is still cold waiting no my lazy self to dry them and put them in the fridge or drink them.

but if you're just going to need to keep something in it for a couple of hours it's a waste. the people that get the best use out of them are hunters and fishermen and then the bigger ones suit them the most. they need something they can fill and it keep cold for days at a time and that can take a physical beating. most avg folks won't get the full use out of them.

No the cups.
They were selling on eBay for $130-150, the price has dropped now I think since it's too close to X-mas to get them shipped in time.

I believe so. It uses the English dub voice actors.

Neither. I am happy with what it has. (In fairness the original plan was Supercharger until I actual drove it and went "what the hell is this not fast enough crap?")

It's for people who don't know how to cruise and modulate the throttle above 5K.

I dunno. Everybody go ahead and pile on me.

FI or die, FI BRO, car shudda been superturboelectric charged from the factory, how do you live with the stock power? #stancenation #builtnotbought. My friend turbo charged his car and told me that was what the car needed so now I just tell people that when my only mod is a different shift knob.

I've driven some of my friends' boosted machines and it's pretty fun but in a DD/turismo, I can't justify the added expense and potential failure modes.

Resale must suck as well.
The dealership I traded mine to STILL has it almost 5 months later.
I'm thinking they don't want to budge on the price at all. They have it listed for basically what they gave me now.
