Y'all, thinking out trading my model 3 for a 2018 Q5. Thoughts?

The 3 is a lease but I think I would clear $4k in value.

Basically, I want to get back to one gas, one EV and now is not the time to have a lease. Plus, I don't feel like a proper cuck at the moment.

How dare you downgrade from the Tesla to a lousy Audi?!??




Why not an A5/S5 Sportback, sir?

Do you have a pet? I don't recall.

Or are you thinking of driving in conditions where the extra clearance is needed? But, you're in Texas where you had that snowstorm but otherwise, the only white stuff is in the people walking around.

I have three dogs. It wouldn't primarily be a dog car but I like that option. The model I'm looking at is this:

Money isn't tight, but I act like money is tight.

I don't want to put any cash in.

Damnit Kurt, FFS>. i was supposed to head out to your neck of the woods last week but Omicron pushed our work global kick off to remote.. It sounds like they may try to set up another A-town on-site in April so I'll hit you up if it goes through and you can pick me up in your new Q7

It's really nice. I've been WFH again since there was a 'rona outbreak that's kept my kid home for the past week, so it's a bit much to sit on the couch with. But I definitely like it a lot more than I did when I briefly tried it on at the store.

Honestly, it's much too nice of a watch for a piece of shit like me. But I'll wear it.

I try to have a timepiece on even if I'm WFH. At least it's nice to look at when I'm tuning out of -worthy Skype/Zoom calls that go on forever.

I always have a watch. I feel naked without one, and it's usually my old reliable Citizen Skyhawk AT because it's always perfectly synced on time (and has my 4 minute coffee brew timer at the ready). In the last 2.5 weeks of December, I added 3 watches to my collection. The Tag was unexpected and is by far the "nicest" and most $$$, but the least "everyday" one. The SUF is getting the most wrist time right now which I didn't expect. But I'm finding it's a perfect size, thin, light, and gawtdamn gorgeous to look at. I also got my MING 17.09 delivered at noon on the 31st and it's neat to have after 8 months of waiting, but it's not proving to be one that just jumps onto my wrist everyday.

But yeah, nice first world problems to have.

I wear my Grand Seiko the least these days...though, that's facilitated by the fact I've sent it to the mother ship (Seiko Japan) to have its first servicing. O_O

It's been 8 weeks already.

the boss ass move is to NOT try and blame someone else for it and act like it was on purpose because now you're busy as fuck and you barely have time for these entry level menial bullshit meetings.
