Well, the NCOM is a higher medal than the Achievment Medal. But yeah, no personal decorations is suspect.
I got the AAM and ARCOM and didnt even come close to retirement...

Don’t forget the liquor cabinet. That’s taken a huge hit.

Impromptu celebratory dinner tonight, Ribeye and a porterhouse were chosen from the butcher man. The porterhouse took up half the grill :icon17: Even the dog has a giant full belly right now and is passed out snoring. :tup:

Good to here Madwi. Glad it worked out.

Spoiler, best wishes. Tell Deb we are wishing for a good outcome.

Fvck ohio. I'm heading to a worse place that has go good route to it. No interstates run to it. The fastest way is to cross Indiana on 2 lane rt24. And I just got the chicken scratches from the office :icon14: tons of BS and everything is in 1/16" scale or smaller. I'll have to take pics on my phone so I can make it large enough to figure out wtf is going on.

I sent the guy selling the nismo seats a couple of texts yesterday. One to verify that he still had them, he said he did so here are my other one's:

"Since you know that I'm willing to pay, I already paid you once, and I'm a reputable buyer and seller on the forum, I would still be willing to buy them but you would have to ship them to me (I would be willing to pay the shipping up front) and once I receive them I would immediately send you the money through zelle."

I followed up with:

"There are three things potentially going against me by paying up front.
#1- you don't send the seats (I have no protection)
#2- you send me trashed seats (I have no protection)
#3- you told me that Paypal permanently closed your account. That doesn't give me much confidence that #'s 1 and 2 couldn't happen."

"I've already shown that I'm willing to pay, you had my payment. Long time forum members can vouch for me and I'm having you ship them to a legitimate business. You can google and yelp the business."

I was going to have him ship them to the shop that built my car.

Guess what kind of a reply I received. NONE. He never returned my texts. Scammer. :tiphat:

I haven't because I can't prove it's an all out scam. Things just don't add up. This was the reply he said he received from Paypal regarding his account,

"After a review, we decided to permanently limit your account as we found potential risk associated with it. You'll not be able to use Paypal to send and receive money or shop online"

He texted me that and then ask me to pay through Zelle which offers zero fraud protection.

Hey guys,

To preface my subject, I couldn't find a solid dash cam thread on this forum (unless I missed it) and I didn't want to create a new one just for this. Carrying on...

I've been looking at dash cams recently because I wanted to upgrade my knock-off go pro one that I've been using because it has a "car-mode" function in it which functions as a dash cam. It's usable, but there are some issues with it, namely the battery and lack of capacitor which is very important to me. Having a rear camera is nice too and I found some dash cams that caught my attention which had a dual camera design. They're about $150-200. However, I randomly came across this:

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insigni...?skuId=6348901

It has the design I like, attractive price point, utilizes a capacitor, built in LCD, built in G-sensor, and solid reviews. Well, I picked up a used one on eBay for $29 (!) and received it today. I personally think BestBuy's brand, Insignia, has always been either a hit or miss, but I figured for $29 and something that checks all the boxes for me...why not. I'm curious to test out how well it performs with the night vision, the sensitivity of the G-sensor which will activate emergency file recording, the angle/coverage of the rear camera, and the overall quality. So far the build quality seems fine and the mounting module is simple. I couldn't really find any reviews on this specific dash cam and considering this isn't a name brand dash cam, no one probably cares lol Only time will tell how it holds up, but I'd recommend this based off my first impression. If you guys care, let me know what you think.

There is one thread started. Ain't much in it yet.

Hopefully they will get the rioters and looters under control soon. Won't be doing any traveling until such time. No picking up the new motor or taking the car to MA until it quiets down.
