Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com
Also, my anniversary is Thursday. We have to be in town for a funeral Friday, and I was planning to book a hotel through Sunday morning as a mini-getaway.
Decent hotel rooms are going for $450+ per night, and a shitty AirBNB camper near Camp Pendleton will set you back $200/night. The places I'd actually WANT to stay are going for $1,200+ per night.
I think I'm f**ked.

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.

I'm betting if "attending funeral" is the best you can do for your anniversary, I don't think that is a true statement

They've done the same thing wanting my 2015 Tahoe. Apparently, short on supply in some areas and need the inventory. But we like the truck too much to let it go. New Tahoes are selling $8,000 over MSRP. Personally, when it's a seller's market, you must remember that while you may get a great price for your vehicle, you then have to turn around replace it which means you'll pay a lot more than average.Dr_Strangelove (whew!) wrote: ↑Mon Jul 26, 2021 3:10 pm Yeah for a car, a 2019 selling for over 2021 MSRP is unprecedented. My friend Chris just sold his 2018 Taco back to the Toyota dealership with 76,000 miles on it for $30,500. He paid $36,000 in 2018. They reached out to him. When he told me the story he kept saying he thought he was being pranked.

Hotels cost is off the charts. I was in SD over the weekend and paid $250 for the Holiday Inn on Miramar Rd, and they have a bunch of construction going on. When I checked in, they had a bowl with what I thought was candy, and it was actually filled with ear plugs!5chn3ll wrote: ↑Tue Jul 27, 2021 7:11 pm Also, my anniversary is Thursday.

That room I had in the past would have been around $125-$150

Heh. I think I pulled off a win - 2 nights in Julian in a Pee Pee Eye-friendly inn.

Not sure I would bet on those odds.
