Anyone have one of these Rigid 3 gallon cordless wet / dry shop vacs? Looking for something to use for quick and easy patio leaf blowing and vacuuming + garage / bug cleaning - something small enough to carry around and definitely cordless. (Already have a larger corded Craftsman for bigger stuff.). Read and watched some reviews and this is where I seem to be landing, even though it doesn’t have an easy way to store the hose and attachments like some others.. Just wondering if anyone has one and if so, do you like it?

I'm looking forward to your review. I've been wanting a good dash cam for a while now. I just can't decide which one.

I've had it now for 3 days so I'll write up a more extensive review once I've been able to use it a bit more. I researched many different models and this one seemed to get some good reviews.

First impressions: +: quality lens; no inside video display (I didn't want the distraction and frankly you really don't need with phone interface; set on Amazon included the micro SD card & polarizing filter for rear cam-everything you need

-: software interface is good but connections so far are flaky-still figuring out how to optimize

Stay turned ...

That looks very well made and you just can’t go wrong with Costco. If they don’t work out, you’re covered. I think that was a great move! Let me know how they cook.

Update: This thing is garbage. Sending back.

It does all kinds of fancy lighting sequences and displays every color one would want.....aside from white; literally the only color I wanted. Looks and creates a very cliche' douche-y look to any room.

If you like backlit keyboards with rainbow colors, you'll love this. Just not for me.

Spring cut cycle is going according to plan. This means most of the jeans/pants that I wore during the winter months no longer fit. Great excuse to buy more jeans that look 20 years old.

Sorry for bombarding the forums but its been a long wait! Next purchase will be some ceramic tint.
Dude! Congrats! Beautiful ride. Well done and bombard away, that's why we are all here. Pics of interior? Just realized how late I am with this post.

Thanks! I have posted some stuff over on the G20 forum but here are a few as per your request, sir.

I'm loving this car and it has exceeded my expectations so far. Custom order from factory with all the stuff I wanted, included some port add-ons like this CF/Alcantara interior trim, CF mirror caps, CF lip spoiler that I didn't know existed until I saw it in another M340i at my dealer. Not shown on the BMW website.

Beautiful.....

Slap you some (more) ///M badges all over that bitch and you'll be set! Don't forget the blue, purple and red tape on your grille slats. Seriously though, happy for you.

Haha, nah. I think it already has plenty. In fact, enough to piss off a number of "true M car" owners it seems. All I know is this car has about 50 more HP than my old e46 M3 and considerably quicker. Tech is another planet all together. Oh those colored slats, yikes. I see plenty of those around. Major pass, lol.

Thanks!

Eh, I see the true M owners point, but if it came from the factory; it's acceptable in my opinion.

I de-badge everything I buy. Not that my car is super fast, but people here think that I de-badged because my car is a IS 250, it is not; it's a 350. So automatically they want to race me between red lights. Most get pissed when they get their asses handed to them.

Thumbs up

I just love a great deal! I was out shopping g for my boys and just happen to browse the men's section and came across this amazing light weight Lamb Skin jacket from one of my favorite brands: Daniel Cremieux. Regularly $700. I paid $121!!! When I got to the register to pay the $243, they told me it was half off of that price today only. The last one in my XL size. Buttery soft and fits like a glove...

I do too, to an extent. Newer cars have certainly added badges. At least they didn't put one on the front of the car believe it or not. I love the clean look of this honestly speaking. I at least spec'd it out the exact way I wanted it from the factory (more legit?) and some of the add-ons at least make it somewhat unique. I don't think there's another car built exactly the way mine was which is neat, at least in the US. Metallic white on black has always been my fave.

I have to admit I do like the M marked calipers, especially on the optional High Performance Tire and Cooling package I got. Fuck me if I'm gonna drive on lousy run flats. Has a larger front rotor and caliper and blended with the jet black wheels is a look I really like.

Funny about the IS. Don't you love handing out the beatings to unsuspecting fools? Speaking of which, I see tons of people driving them and they have badges in tact including the 250 and they always want to race it seems, whether I'm in my Audi or especially the Bimmer. The only real regret I might have about this car is it attracts a lot of douchebaggery. F'n Corollas and Sentras wanna go even. Give me a g'dam break.

Now I did get the M marked keyfob. Maybe I should wear it around my neck? LOL.
