I remember you had a medical exemption for your front tints. Could you share what it was for? While I typically avoid having front tints, I’m finding it difficult to handle the morning sun, even with sunglasses. It’s creating significant blind spots and increasing the risk of potential accidents if I’m not extremely cautious, which is even causing frustration for drivers behind me.
Late reply...just got back from vaca. So yeah, the medical exemption was for me to legally blackout my car. Without it sometimes cops can pull you over and give you a hard time for the dark windows. I went to my eye doctor & told him I have photophobia(light sensitivity) and an eye exam and 1 form later I was set to be approved. Took about 2 months to come in the mail. Sounds like your eyes have become sensitive to sunlight, it happens. Look into tinting your front windows and windshield. It'll help a ton, you don't necessarily have to go as dark as I did(5%) but I'm sure it'll help you out a lot. Ceramic tint is the truth. Hope it works out, safe travels.

Spray my carbon fiber parts with clear. And respray my front and back bumper they got rock chips and scratches, my front bumper used to have a license plate so i wanted the 4 drill holes filled and my hood was gonna get touched up too. Not a crazy job at all, price was good and came highly recommended by car community homies.
Dude was tryna save face saying he'd spray it this weekend for sure i was like bro :lol: why should i trust your word now, this whole time you been saying everythings done

JazakAllah khair, brother ❤️. Alhamdulillah it's definitely amazing 💯.

Ah damn, that sucks, Islamabad was super dope especially Faisal Mosque. Glad mama dukes had a good time. Nice! government jobs out there so y'know you're well respected and set for life out there. Must've been a lit wedding, lol.
 
News just came out that will affect the auto industry MASSIVELY! Don't want to bring politics here but this is a post that will shift prices dramatically! 25% tariffs on everything from Canada & Mexico. So new Tacomas & Rav4s, Honda Civics & CR-Vs, Ford Mavericks & Bronco Sports are all built in these countries and the tariffs will make them WAY more money. Making once affordable vehicles not so much.

I paid $27,749 for my 2023 Maverick (in Oct 2023) Hybrid in XLT trim, so not loaded. Cloth heated seats & wheel, small screen, hitch. Nice truck, I love it. But the shift in price as an example would be $34,700. Price has gone up a bit in 2 model years as the 2025s are being built. These won't be a value anymore.

Moral, if you want something, get it now.
 
probably less, I think the overlanding fad died. idk if that carries over to new ones though...
 
i want a lexus gx550 or a 4runner/landcruiser...how much more $$ would these be next year?

It's pretty cut and dry if he does what he does. 25% for anything made in Canada/Mexico after the tariffs are enacted. Stuff coming overseas, I'm sure it's gonna be more too just didn't see the actual amount for goods from Japan. But current inventory won't be more but the new stuff will be.

I just did an example for someone who said I didn't know what I was talking about on a Glassdoor forum, as he was certain that Hondas & Toyotas were built here and not in Canada/Mexico. Had to take him to school and explain what the value means of the 1st digit of the VIN for vehicles. If you don't know, it's the country of origin (production). Here's a chart for those who didn't know this.

Honda Civics have a 2. Toyota Tacomas have a 3 as the 1st digit. I just love it when people on that forum talk about things (cars in this instance) they have no flipping clue about, yet pretend to be "experts". Then I can sit them down and explain things. I don't talk out of my *** on things I know NOTHING about. I keep my mouth shut. Eagerly waiting his reply to my info. Should be interesting.

Honda has been building cars in the US and Canada forever.
i think the fl5 type r is made in japan...i believe the fk8 type r was made in the uk

i think toyota only has a few japanese built cars here...i know the gx550/4runner/landcruiser come from japan
 
Slap gm and ford trucks on that list too

If your truck Is gm and it wasn’t custom ordered it’s built in Canada and Mexico.

Yup. Mavericks are built down in Mexico along with the Bronco Sports. F150s are not. They are at the River Rouge plant and in Missouri. When the Edge and MKX/Nautilus were still being built, they were made at the Oakville, Ontario plant in Canada.

I've already had arguments with people who truly & honestly believe there will be ZERO tariffs on the vehicles built in those two countries. Heck, some aren't even aware that popular cars are built there or that parts for cars come there. There are people who think an American car has 100% American parts. 🤦🏻‍♂️
 
I HAVEN’T SWITCHED RIDES AGAIN😂😂

I’VE BEEN KICKED BACK STOCKPILING PARTS FOR THE F150. GOING WITH A 4” BDS LIFT WITH 35’s and 22’s. AND CORSA XTREME EXHAUST.
