HR is where the bitches and hoes are at.

HR is predominately women. Some look good, some look ok then some I don't even look at.

HR is the safe haven. Sort of.

Did Uber come out with a exotic line yet?

A guy that owns a Auto Consignment shop in Sac said he's doing Uber Exotic (unless he just made that up on his own)

Hertz, that's what I was thinking of. I knew there was another company besides Enterprise, Avis and Budget.

Hertz and Avis have been my go to but that's because i have corporate rates through them. National would be next because I have status through AmEx for them.

Avis and Budget are one company, so are National/Enterprise. Hertz is its own thing for now.

Hertz has a manager special. Doesn't tell you the type of car though. Just says 1 suitcase, 2 seater. Probably a fucking Fiat.

FFS, spent the weekend working on my dad's brakes hoping they should be easy.. Finished it all up late Sunday night and went to bed them in and SCRAPPPPEEEEE.. thought to myself, holy fuck, did i install the pads backwards... nope, tore it all down, looked fine. buttoned back up. Test drive, SCRAPPEEEEE...



to the rescue: first thought it was the heat shield so bent that back last night, still no go.


back to

found this: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sus...ggestions.html


apparently there's a lip on the hub that rubs against the new rotors


Ordered the flexvolt grinder on the 'Zon and it'll arrive today and I"m just going to go to town on that bizatch

Johnny, we may drive down the strip on the way out of Vegas...neither of us have any interest in it...since, you know...I don't drink and don't fk hookers or skrippers.
Was just a cheap location to fly into to head out to Sedona, Zion, Antelope, Whore Shoe, Red Rock, Bryce...we'll loop back around and fly out from Vegas.

I didn't see the 30% off, Kurt...that would definitely help.

I've never done gubermint rates for cars: but it's here for Hertz:
https://www.hertz.com/rentacar/misc/...ndmilitary.xml

Avis: https://www.avis.com/en/corporate/layout1/A5/A555500

Don't forget AAA has some good rates sometimes.


and speaking of AAA or govt.. Make sure you tick that box for the hotel brah!!! They got some SICK rates sometimes. Marquis may be in your reach

Seriously in all my travels, that's one of my top properties I've stayed at.

Ahhh, in that case, definitely get a car

Can't help you with silvercar, sorry but Check out the AAA rates for all the companies to see if it's more manageable (I think you have AAA right?)

AAA is good.

I used it for hotels in the DL area.

But, then they give better deals to passholders.

Then i realized Gubermint rate was the same as AAA.

Was just thinking some of this lol.

J - do you know where you're staying in Vegas? Apologies if you mentioned it earlier in the thread. If you're close enough to the strip, then it's all walkable - just make sure your New Balance or Saucony game is on point. Any specific plans or sights you wanna see?
