They are there at least a couple of days a week. Not near as much as the robot repair guys (they repair robots they are not robots {I don't think})though!
My office in sin the HR wing which is down in the slums where the contractors park so they are usually nearby.

Interesting that HR is down in the "slums". Staff only meet them on the way down....

We are down beside the production flor instead of upstairs with al the other management staff. Makes it much easier for the guys to come see us.

Picked up lots of crud on this trip.
Showing off those Primacys in all their glory.
I've got a love/hate relationship with them though.

Braver man than I. I would not drive on those tires in anything below 40 degrees. I did once. ONCE!

Attention Hakone Edition drivers! Bronze wheels are so 20 minutes ago. Now the new thing is bronze wall tires.

Or, how about:

It must be spring, my tires are in bloom.

Seriously, this is the worst I've seen and it happened over the course of just a few of weeks since I swapped out my winter tires and wheels for these summer ones that I bought last year.

Guy that works with me bought a "bright" Hakone unicorn over the weekend. 2016 Chevy SS, Jungle Green with a MT (less than 12K miles). One of only 15 made in that color/transmission.

Today I learned that "my" Hakone has special powers. It rained but my Hakone still looks great!

Now that's it winter...


BTW. My hand fits behind the tire in the front back wheel well.
