  18. Oh damnit, how did I miss this??!?!?!? A very happy belated, Doug.
  19. ^^ Yup, lots of early spring flowers taking it on the chin today. We got 2+ here, just enough to make me wonder if it's worth clearing the driveway to avoid the 3 days of shit that will result if I don't. Rain Thursday and near 60 Friday have me thinking it's not worth the hassle.
  20. I love the fact that you're running autocross with paper plates. And can't you shut the electrical nanny off?
  21. Sounds like a huge pain in the ass, Jeff, especially the issue with the movers. Our new neighbors went through that and were without some of their stuff for 4 months...
  22. If they can bring that car to market on time and on budget and it's reliable I'd drive one in a heartbeat.
  23. Happy Birthday!
  24. Having sat in both recently as well I can agree with Jeff that the seats in the ST are quite a bit narrower than the GTI. That said I'm not shocked to hear that Raffy fits better in a GTI seat than I do.
  25. I found it to not be all that comfortable for a 6-1 guy and his two kids and all their crap. I was constantly getting kicked in the back and feeling like the car was stuffed to the gills just getting people back and forth to school. It had also started to irritate and old hip injury. The side bolsters on the bottom of the seat were, at times, painful. Otherdays it felt like sitting in a perfect fitting glove. It was frustrating. Thanks and not entirely sure. Likely candidate, 2016 4Runner Trail Premium. Hardly. While values were down I still did ok as a private sale. I'd have taken a huge bath trading it in though with dealers offering 15% below published KBB/NADA values at best. And those numbers have gone down a lot in the past 6 months for sure. Basically when I got a cash offer at 95% of my asking price I took the money and ran. I suspect I could have got another $500 or so (full asking) if I did 3000 better than trading it in which was good enough for me. I made a conscious decision not putting any $ down on it so to sell it this early in the game (19 months and 30k miles in) and do better than break even vs. payoff seemed like a huge win. I fully expected to basically pay a retroactive downpayment to get out of it. Can't say I'd recommend a GTI to him given that he's not exactly a small fellow (from what I remember from pics). Encourage him to drive one first for as long a test drive as they'll allow.
