I do have a hypothesis as to why everyone looses their shit when temps drop below 50. I think it's because no one here looks at the weather forecast. They just roll out of bed and assume it's going to be 75 and sunny and leave the house accordingly in shorts and flip flops. Everyone I've seen today is dressed the same as they were on Monday when it was almost 80. haha

This is why i posted it.

That's basically my life. I just roll out of bed and hope the weather is going to be nice. Only time I really look at the weather is if I want to drive the roadster. There's no point in driving that car when you have to have the top up.

That instrument cluster is really nice, looks like an Audi.

Yeah, it's nice and clean. When you're not shifting manually, the center section displays music and navigation info. It changes color when not in dynamic mode and the speedo goes away to display suspension info when the transfer case is in low gear.

Most of it useless, but fun and nicely designed.

Have you taken it off roading? I was pretty amazed at what they were capable of (not just trail off roading, but real obstacles). I was in the 500 hp Range Rover - suspect same as yours, just crawling through the bush and rocks. Funny at the time having all that power and you use maybe 2/5ths of it.

But it wasn't as fast in a straight line as I hoped. Still fun though.

50% of me stayed home yesterday because I didn't feel well.
The other 50% looked out the window and realized I would have had to scrape the windows on the car..., fuck that noise.

I feel your pain though, the weather can suck nuts until it's riding season, no use looking at it until it warms up.

Nope. I live in an apartment and park it outside with the rest of the plebs.



Might be able to afford a garage if I could find someone to sell this bridge to.

Of course. I picked it up on a Monday and the following Saturday drove to Colorado and spent a week traversing the high alpine loops and passes. Fantastic trip! There is a thread on here somewhere...

Not sure what you're expecting in terms of speed but for a 5000 pounds it's pretty impressive. Faster than an E46 M3 comp in 0-60 and 1/4mile. A few tenths for each time at that. 4.4sec 0-60 12.8sec 1/4 mile is respectable for most vehicles, no? It surprises a hell of a lot of people on the road.

That motor is so detuned that a simple ECU flash and pulley adds 110hp and 100tq. That really livens it up! A while back someone who uses his RRS to tow is drag car to the strip put that tune and pulley on the RRS and did a few runs. He posted a time slip showing 11.3 in the 1/4 mile.

These last couple days have been the worst we've had this winter. Hopefully this shit goes away soon.

I mean, my standards aren't that bad right? Has to have a 800+ credit score, come from a wealthy family, tall, dark, handsome, and a douchey personality hits nicely as well.


Someone on here must know these types of dudes that'd want to buy a bridge?

Anyways - I noted with great interest you said the Romans took the Eburon women back as slaves. I recall you saying your test showed Eburon DNA, but now I wonder....

Is it at all possible that the Romans fathered children with said women and that you are also an indirect descendant of the Romans? Perhaps even Caesar himself? I mean...you never know right...

Hail Caesar!

Like usual some escaped , rumors say Ambiorix too . And that's why I have the pure DNA match .

Hail Caesar ? Fuck you !!!
And watch your ass Canada because I shoot your ass in pieces of shit !

I expect more!!! More!

No, but despite the paper claims and everything else, I suppose I just expected more of a shove in the seat IRL when I drove it. It is fast for its size, but I suppose I just went in with too high of an expectation. Also extremely expensive too, but you aren't buying it for speed as the first priority I suppose, so I discounted that in my mind.

Still love the look of them, but we are getting rid of the LR2 because the dealer is too far away. Wife is stepping into a Murano platinum edition now so we can save some money.

Idk, people tent to shit a brick when i stand on it from a stop. It seems to be most unexpected by most. Keep in mind that mine is a Sport, not the full size. So a bit lighter than the big RR.

Good choice on dropping the LR2, the Murano is a good vehicle, it should out perfume the LR2 by miles. I know a few people who love them.

Caesar it's really nice to hear I pulled your leg with a ballista !

On a serious note.. I saw today snow and lots of car accidents in Canada ?
*Canadian video from car accidents and chaos* is here on this Belgian news page => http://www.zita.be/nieuws/bizar/4050...aos-video.html

Today it's 17° Celsius in Belgium , that's really crazy for March while I know the winter is not over yet...

Wait..., so Ambiorix is a homosexual AND of Roman descent with unpure DNA???!?!
