There are backups at most major hubs right now. Honda can’t tell me where our container of engines is. Two weeks ago they lost another container of ours in GA.

It was surprisingly recent really.
This was the valuable cargo they were stealing in the first FF and that was only 20 years ago.

I'm pretty sure that's the exact tv I wanted in me and my brother's room back in the 90's!

Swap winter tires set to summer sets on my wife's WRX. Noticed that brake pads are running bit thinner side. It'll prob last til this year (maybe early next year?). Looked into Winmax... but they're 18 months back ordered. Maybe look into getting her Project Mu Type-NS.

I've been pretty happy with my Endless Super Street S-Sports.

Other than that they screech while cold (goes away after a few miles of stop and go to warm them up). A lot less dusty at least.
