BTD have enjoyed a lot of cars over the years Go for it, currently have a Challenger Scat Pack with 485 HP that makes me smile every time I fire it up, bought a 23 Jeep Wrangler this year and a 23 Winnebago Travato camper van, we enjoy all of them along with travel, buy what makes you happy and...

We have a 23 Winnebago Travato KL, great camper van it’s our second one, upgraded for the lithium system with unlimited power to run everything including A/C. Great open floor plan, easy to drive, Promaster chassis so cheaper repairs and service centers everywhere, 18mpg. So great to travel with...

Jeep Wrangler The Jeep Wrangler PHEV is a great option, best of both worlds plus the off-road capability. We use it around town on battery only and have only filled up the gas tank on road trips. We were able to claim the $7,500 credit on our 2022 taxes.

For a small SUV the Jeep Wrangler PHEV is a great option as well, also comes with a full size spare tire, great resale value and as a bonus is amazing off road.

We have owned 5 so far and have done pretty well especially on the last 2: San Antonio, 1998 for 70k, sold for 90k in 2003 Tucson, 2003 for 160k, sold for 177k in 2010 Colorado Springs, 2012 for 250k, sold for 270k in 2014 Scottsdale, 2015 for 280k, sold in 2019 for 429k Scottsdale, 2019 for...

After reading this realizing how good property taxes are here knew they were good but I guess really good, currently $1,600 on a house valued at $720k, only pay $800 with 50% reduction for being a historical property. With the rise in property values our county actually lowered the tax rate this...

Have several coffee shops, restaurants, markets all within a mile, also hiking and biking trails, use all frequently, only problem is we side a street that keeps getting busier and busier since we bought our house 3 years ago so looking at other options but finding the same walkability is...

I can’t even imagine with the Hellcat power you have, I have to be careful with just the 485hp, I went from the 245’s to 275’s and still can break loose if not careful, amazing the amount of power in these cars.

Car-Guy I agree with both of your complaints, that back seat is tight, it is low but like you said roomy and comfortable once you are in it especially compared to the Camaro’s and Mustang’s. I really like Vette’s one of the best sports cars for the money but worried it will be to hard to get in...

We are in really bad shape if we go by percentage, have a 2022 Winnebago Travato Camper van bought for $105k, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited 4xe for 60k, 2015 Dodge Challenger Scatpack for 40k, those three amounts combined is 20% of our net worth.

Go for it, muscle cars are fun, I have a 2015 Challenger Scat Pack Shaker with the 392 V8 that I got back in 2016, still makes me smile when I fire it up and drive it. Just got a 2023 Wrangler Unlimited 4xe for the wife that is also fun but is the same price you are thinking about, 60k.

I also went from a wallet to a phone case attached to my cell phone in the last few years, holds 4 cards, so carry a Drivers license, Retired Military card, CC & Debit card.

Did a 4 mile walk to the coffee shop today, usual week is M,W, strength training 40 minutes with 10-15 minutes yoga/stretching. T, Th outdoors on the bike, 45 minutes to an hour 10-15 miles hitting fat burning and cardio zones. Saturday or Sunday, either a 20 mile bike ride or 5 mile brisk walk...

2023 Jeep Wrangler Sahara 4xe, #2 Cabo Cruise.

I have learned there are many smart people on this forum that have done really well and are a small minority of the population so try to learn as much as possible, some takeaways so far: Don’t need to pay an advisor and can manage your own money When to take SS How to blow the dough after being...

Thank for posting this, still sad reading all the first hand accounts in the posts. I was serving in the USAF at the time and we immediately went into lockdown and a lot of long days. Still fresh in my memory are all the brave first responders on that day.

Sounds like some great trips! We are doing a road trip through Colorado starting next week, cruising to Ensenada and Cabo in October. For 2023 quite a few road trips (we have a camper van) going to New Orleans & Florida, Pacific coast highway, Vancouver and Banff National Park.

I am also an Air Force brat and now in the Air Force so trying to figure out where to call my hometown. I am 34 and the longest I ever lived anywhere was 8 years.

Brewer, You will have lots of fun with it. We have the 189 FBS which is just a little bigger than yours and really enjoy it on weekend trips. Just took it out last weekend.

But before I jump to stupid conclusions, what exactly is unfair about what you posted in your view? Midpack, Since it would only apply to new enlistees/officers if passed it is not as unfair as I was thinking. I originally thought it would be applied to everyone. It is ok to start with new...

I was sent this today. This is one of the proposals Air Force Sergeants association is fighting. Military pay not being paid until 57. For those of you currently serving in the military like myself let's hope this never goes through! This would put a big dent in my ER plans. No retirement pay...

dessert, Your Chevy should be fine for the 189 FBS. I pull it with a Dodge Dakota which has a 4.7 V8 and I live in Arizona so I go through a lot of mountains everywhere I go and it does ok. It pulls like I am pulling nothing on regular roads but uphill I do slow down a bit but you do with a...

Now 18 in a row, and San antonio lost two straight so right behind them. I am a San Antonio fan so watching closely. Good luck to your rockets to keep it up. I thought they would be hurting without Yao but Mcgrady is stepping up and they are playing great D.
