Didn't realize you were next door. You should have just knocked!

Why won't they just let him in? View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjTYVNpWp_c

Hmm, good idea. Might be a good key-fob signal theft deterrent as well if it can't unlock at all.

Finally woke it from its six-month slumber and took it out for a spin. Now stands at 31 miles. Battery was dead which required a jump from my trusty Noco Boost Plus. Apparently this model has the ability to limit the vampire effect, which allows the door locks to still function. I know these...

Synology DS1522+ with five 8TB Synology Enterprise HDD drives in RAID 6, two 400GB SSD cache, 32GB RAM, and a 10Gb LAN expansion card. I could have gone with all SSDs, but I feel like that's overkill (and pricey) for my specific uses. Primarily bought mine with the desire for ample data...

I like it. Price seems right compared to last year's model. Like that they ditched the exterior chrome trim. Blue Lagoon color looks fantastic in the sun.

Were they all being towed?

That would be mostly correct, but unplanned "life events" came up this year that necessitated a vehicle with less than 24 hours notice. I didn't plan on having to buy one anytime soon, but it just happened that way. I didn't want to deal with a used one that had a better chance of leaving me...

Yeah, the hit on the wallet already occurred when I drove it off the lot. It'll serve its purpose one way or another. I just don't like the responsibility of having to worry about a thing I have little control over that is sitting in a garage with a battery that is probably/soon-to-be dead. 49...

It looks like it wasn't circumcised.

...because I didn't want to drop all $32k in cash? The car will be paid in full by the end of the year anyway. Only a fool would drive to the Smithsonian. The subway is the way to go there, but I already did all the tourist stuff 20 years ago when I got to this area. The beach isn't a bad idea...

Not really. There are plenty of ride share services here, and the nearest hospital is a little over a mile away. My apartment complex also has 24/7 concierge within a 30-foot walking distance, so I can completely ruin their week should I have a mild heart attack. I'm also single and don't have...

Public transportation. It is a literal 10-min free bus ride to work and back. I get everything delivered, including groceries. That's how I managed to not own a vehicle for all nine years prior. Not in this area. Traffic sucks. I wouldn't mind going for a drive if I had a reason to, it just...

It is quite liberating. I make great use of that extra free time by being as lazy as possible.

Four-month review: I haven't driven it in four months. Still 27 miles. Does this make me a bad person? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Seven straight days of moving. The worst is finally over. Now it's just unpacking and furniture reassembly. I hurt everywhere all the time. Popping Aleve like candy. What was Danny Glover's famous quote in Lethal Weapon again?... In other news, I really like my Touring.

That's what ZipCar is, but they left the area. I don't think I'd rent directly from an individual though.

I was going for a certain look though and forgot about those, but that may work. Maybe I can find some Honda-branded ones with LEDs.

Longer than that...I haven't owned a vehicle since 2015. I just don't need one here. It has been so relaxing to mentally zone out while the bus/cab takes you wherever you need to go. Public transportation is a free 10-15 minute ride to work. Groceries, packages, etc are all delivered, and the...
