  1. Some golden rules I have always lived by: Pay yourself first, no company or any other person will. This way you have retirement. Balance work and Personal Life. Many companies preach this, but few actually deliver on it and sadly many managers got their position by politics and not from being mentored to be a better person and how to properly manage people and grow a group. Hence the need for balance. Take time out for yourself!!! This is an important one as we all need a break from partners, spouses, boyfriend / Girlfriend. No matter what, make sure to take time our for yourself. Work out and Eat for Life! This world is a complex place and you need to make sure you are in tip top shape as you never know when a curve ball will come and take you out. Live Life to the Fullest! We all make various incomes, but we still need to live life to the fullest so that you have a positive experience of being able to say when I do check out I had the best life I could make for myself.
  2. Believe it when I see it. I cannot believe Google would partner with such a mess of a company like FCA.
  3. Disagree, there have been plenty of NA engines that did better than this turd did. Problem is this is a one of those over rev'd engines with 205 HP, but only 156 lbs-ft of torque. 40 to 50 more ft-lbs of torque would have helped big time. Course Olds Quad 4 900HP 4 banger would be awesome too.
  4. I invite you to go try as I was surprised on how tight it was and having to bend my head down. There is not much room in the back if you have a large person up front. Very tight.
  5. Just another 40-50 ft-lbs if torque from base RPM would have changed how the car drove.
  6. Auto purchases period are two big of a $ amount to not have a hands on look and feel.
  7. Good Classical is always relaxing but then some days you need Classic Rock! Today is one of them and this is my hit: https://youtu.be/o1tj2zJ2Wvg Welcome to the Jungle!
  8. My lowest price I ever paid for Gas was .49 cents. Guess that does make me old. Course with the oil reduction agreement, prices will spike and help the EV side even more. I love the 10 year gas average as I expect us to be back up in a year near the 3.50 - 4 dollars a gallon.
  9. If you have friends and Family over 5'10" you will want the 300 over the Conti. The 300 can fit comfy even Shrek size me at 6'6", The Conti is a fail for big people. Nice auto, decent, but not a big persons car. In fact I would say the saving grace is that the 300 is still the last remaining full size that has room for us big guys.
  10. Remember you can also do Eggs and Oatmeal, Eggs and Ham steak, Asians have a great breakfast that I got hooked on, Easy over eggs on steam rice with a little soy sauce. Mix it all together, very filling depending on the number of eggs, high protein and will hold you through a solid morning without snacking. Here is a various listing of egg and Rice Breakfast dishes. http://www.yummly.co/recipes?q=eggs rice breakfast&allowedIngredient=large eggs&noUserSettings=true In Japan I got hooked while going to college there on what is called Tamago Kake Gohan (Egg Over Rice) http://www.lafujimama.com/2012/02/tamago-kake-gohan-egg-over-rice/ There is also Oyakodon (Japanese Chicken & Egg Rice Bowl) http://www.yummly.co/#recipe/Oyakodon-_Japanese-Chicken-_-Egg-Rice-Bowl_-Recipe-_-Video-1639169 There are fancy ways and simple ways and basic ways but all tasty. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oyakodon Keep in mind you can always cook the egg or if you want even more protein you can also add a raw egg with the cooked eggs on the steamed rice and the heat / steam will cook the egg.
  11. Awesome going guys, remember chicken is so versatile as it can take all kinds of seasonings. Try Indian style, Asian style, there are a ton of ways to cook chicken and not get bored with the bland taste. I for one enjoy Teriyaki Chicken, Korean Chicken in spicy bean paste, Indian chicken has so many different styles that you can probably go two weeks and not cover all the various spices. Course then just traditional good ol Mediterranean chicken. Course, does not hurt to do a Beer can chicken with just a normal salt / pepper rub on the outside. Very juicy. So Yes, ton's of ways to prep Chicken. Spicy Korean Chicken http://www.koreanbapsang.com/2015/06/spicy-grilled-korean-chicken.html Teriyaki Chicken http://www.chowhound.com/recipes/easy-teriyaki-chicken-30551 10 Best Indian Chicken Recipes http://food.ndtv.com/lists/10-best-indian-chicken-recipes-693207 Keep in mind you can also do this with lean Beef and especially Pork Remember to keep mixing up your order of your weight lifting to keep the body in change so you keep having gains. Rock on Meat Heads! Were here to PUMP YOU UP!
  12. Interesting, why would Subaru not do this, after all Toyota owns them pretty much.
  13. OUCH and the VW fall out continues! Be interesting to see if CARB proves this out in testing of the product line.
  14. True they seem to have hit the reliable numbers, but then some people just seem to be lucky with lemons and I think my aunt is one of them. True the old Lincolns of the 60's - 70's did have much head room.
  15. Lincoln, nice very nice upgrade from the old version. Sadly, tight, not meant for large people and the lack of head room in the back makes this car a NOGO from the beginning for me. Having spent time with the car, the front passengers can get comfy, but not the back. Lexus is a total yawner for me. My aunt has her 3rd one and always complains about having to take it in for repairs. Fit n Finish leaves allot to be desire. So far Lexus has not done much to win me over to be even an admirer of their auto's.
  16. Yup sinking FCA as he starts to destroy Ferrari. Their Socialist cast system of keeping things status quo and stealing from other places to prop up the delusional world of Italy will be the next country to bankrupt and implode. No Idea how they could think sinking billions into a dead name brand and then sell 23 is a good thing. I found a UK story that says Alfa sold 3,136 total in all of Europe. So even with that, clearly the brand is NOT selling. Also FCA story of Alfa outselling Fiat is a joke. http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-chrysler-alfa-idUSBRE91900T20130210 Guess non of the points in the story above have happened. as here we are 2016 and his Alfa will sell 300,000 alone is not happening.
  17. FAILURE, The debt would not have been as big if Segrio AKA IDIOT would have not stolen the Billions to sink into the black hole called Alfa. The money stolen could have paid down debt and refreshed product lines but NO, Italian IDIOTS had to sink Billions into a pathetic car that has sold what 23 cars to date or so? Come on, Ford and GM both build up inventories to get through the retooling. This I believe IMHO is more about the fact that he has FAILED as a CEO to build the company up wasting money and clearly has no clue about maximizing the US market.
  18. I know some will love this little Italian Job, but for me, IMHO!
  19. Come on you know you want to sprinkle a little Suav over your dinner!
  20. Did the old Man replace the window?
