I've had the same bottle of cologne that my grandma gave me when I was 16....I'm in my 30s

My 2009 Outback Wagon died on me this past summer 😭😭😭

We've had a ton of rain the past few summers too. Not only does the grass grow quickly, it also means the lawn stays wet longer making it tougher to mow(especially on your own schedule).

Interesting putting the front wheels lower helps, I would have thought the opposite. I'll have to try that.

It's so frustrating that if you buy a modern car you have to give up any semblance of privacy

That'll show those pesky liberal natives

How's it do on hills? I have one that's AWD but it still takes forever to do my whole yard. I have about a 1 acre plot that's very hilly so it takes me ~1.5 hours.

Pro tip: Keep a log of your work in a text file. I write a few bullet points for each day and on Friday write a "Next Week" section for my todos on that following Monday. Helps reduce the cognitive load of trying to remember what the hell you were about to do next.

Appreciate all your suggestions!

At the risk of sounding nit picky, I'm not a fan of sedans so the Lucid Air/Ioniq 6/Polestar 2 are out.

The EV6 and Luriq are enticing. The polestar 3/4 is super cool but I hate the no physical climate buttons/huge iPad display.

Honestly the Volvo V60 hybrid is my ideal car if it were full EV and a little cheaper.

NGL that thing looks like a pop tart box 😂.

Also I definitely don't want/need a 3rd row of seats.

I'm paying ~$450/month for my lease now(Hyundai Tucson), but I could probably afford up to $1000/month if it's something I really liked.

Good call, looks interesting. I'll take a look

Not a bad option but still below 300 miles with the AWD.
