You're an idiot if you don't think Andermatt-Sedrun-Disentis is absolutely REAL people, REAL skiing and REAL prices. Vail is just a tiny wrinkle in the question of skiing in a fucking wonderland.
...

Already starting to see lots of questions about going to Andermatt from Epic passholders...very interested to see if the Epic produces big swings for the zone.

Key is to buy ahead online. I use PirateShip. Round your dimensions down to the nearest inch, round your weight down to the nearest pound. Save a good bit over instore.

10 year old griffons are worth $125? Shit...i need to clean out my garage.

Holy fucking unicorn.

This is confusing because there is no Wildcat 104. There is a Deathwish 104, and a Wildcat 101 and 108.

Deathwish is a hair softer than the Wildcat in general, but the difference is less noticeable between the DW104 and the WC101/108 (DW104 hair stiffer than its 112 brother.) Both can hold their own at...

At least i finally stopped just buying used Moments for $100 and skiing them for 100 days and finally bought a few new pairs from ya'll last year :).

I wish my '13 Bibbys would die so I could...

Now that we got a season on the 104 DW....I want a 94 DW with one sheet of metal.

The commander series is dope but it's just a little too "fuck you lets haul ass" for my personal daily driver...

I just went from my 5 year old FR235 to a base Fenix 7. I figured I liked the durability and reliability of the FR and was already in the Garmin ecosystem. And lots of enthusiastic reviews from both...

It was a complete mindfuck. I grew up in the midwest country and 4 weeks into college in Chicago was eating dinner at a Chicago institution with a legend.

Plus his grandson was and is rad. He's...

I assumed everyone here did enough drugs to have a 0.1 gram accurate scale at home.

Such a good dude in so many ways.

My freshman year of college we had a parents weekend. Five us who were quick friends decided we should all go out to eat one night with our families to meet each...

For anyone following this thread but not ready to through hundreds of bucks at an espresso setup -- here's what I brew on the majority of the time for $78 total (assuming you have a kettle of some...

Yep.

Yep.

As long as it's a 2007 or later, it has a timing chain and not a belt. Good for the life of the engine.

Check doors function. See how worn out the suspension is. Ensure shifts are smooth. Ideally...

For all you Sprinter lovers....this is a nice little diddy

Punk. But fair play.

Venmo'd you to help fund your yacht.

This seems clean...but near 10k for a 2006 with 171k on it... https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/360790362900893/

There's an active FB group for AWD siennas that has listings regularly.

The difference between a early 2010s Sienna and my 2003 Astros is night and day from a highway miles crushing perspective. A 5-6hr drive in the Astro worked me. A 5-6hr drive in the Sienna is much...

As someone who has owned a few...they make sense if you're using them as a camper/adventure van. And they rock for that -- good AWD, easy to lift, easy interior to build out.

But if you want to...

Keen on the pants.

I have...3 zip brosses, a pullover bross and a Melly. I will say that the grid out ages better appearance-wise (except for the hard-face zip Bross which is burly AF). Pretty...

Different buddy -- one in Breck, one in Frange. Both hunting for mid-fat touring skis and allergic to paying for new skis.

Guessing my buddy wants one size down but will pass along.

Great deal.

Length? Current mount BSL? Your in Summit eh? Buddy up there is looking for something like this to replace his beat to hell Helios.

As long as there are lounging in a bikini shots, the prayer flags are acceptable.

Stoked to see this stay in the mag family -- sweetly and smartly built rig.

Thanks jackattack for the incredible cup of coffee this afternoon. Made my first jackattack-supplied, tgapp-roasted, doebedoe-brewed cup of that incredible Ecuadorian. Super cool coffee -- naturals...

Local buddy interested. PM'd ya.

I ate shit on a trail run a few weeks ago broke the arm of my frames. Submitted online warranty claim stating as much with a photo, immediately got a shipping notice of new pair headed my way. Hard...

Thanks. Was moving my grandmother into hospice when I got a text from a mutual friend. She was a good one. Made it through living in Damascus early in the Syrian revolution to be killed on a bike...

I think you could easily say the same thing about Epic as about IKON. I don't see why Epic is a more sensible fit than Ikon. Sure, Epic has a larger share of the upper middle class midwesterners. But...

14hr drive round trip, say you burn 3gal/hr (25mpg) == 42gal.

At 4.50$ thats $190.

At 2.50$ thats $105.

I don't think $85 makes or breaks a ski vacation for most anyone. And $85 ain't...

Fucking drivers killed a friend of mine from graduate school on her commute to the State dept yesterday.

Fuck. Drivers.

Only $575 for 4th gen (e.g. Hybrid). Reasonable price. Nice that they added 2" and 3" versions. It's a way simpler kit since they no longer have to deal with a driveshaft connecting rear to front....

That makes sense -- especially with the AWD being powered by a separate electric motor in the rear. Springs it is. Few folks on the Sienna AWD FB group have had custom springs wound. I looked into...

I'd honestly contact Airlift. They were responsive when my kit was missing a part. Might just be an oversight/need updating. Airbags do make a nice, simple difference and seem pretty robust.

I've had Jorgenson in my team since start of Tour (I like to just pick a team and stick with it.) So it's my fault he ate shit on descent today. Kids got tons of potential.

My experience is with 3PMSF rated AT tires (Discoverer At4s) and Snows (Michellin X-Ice.) It's capable, but it isn't as confidence-inspiring in my experience as my old AWD Astros. Except for the fact...

If gen 3 sienna is too soft (personal—I think it’s fine for a minivan) you can always swap in SE struts and springs to firm up the ride.

How would AWD have prevented an off-the-road-in-a-downgrade-turn scenario?

I have a FWD Sienna. I have no illusions that the AWD is a superior snow vehicle. But at the time budget simply didn't...

The 2010 is Gen 2 Sienna with the 5 spd. The 2011 is gen 3 with the 6 speed. Both are reliable transmissions as long as you treat them reasonably (e.g. fluid change every 80k, more if you're towing)...

Will the bross zip version be available in Black? Trying to decide based on your description which would work better under a vest (patrol).

Not sure if the new gen got stiffer springs in rear. 3rd gen is soft if you load up the back with people/gear.

I installed the airlift kit over about two beers. Run it at 15 most the time and 25...

I went 235/65 r17 on mine. Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S. Some Michelin x-ice in the winter. No rubbing at lock but doesn't look particularly big. I believe Journey's has beta on which fit, but my...

We were the shriners this year. Too bad our vehicles gets like 7mpg, don't have catalytic converters or really any emissions reducers.

The only shitty thing about this stage was the hay bale in the route -- and that had nothing to do with cobbles. Could've happened just the same on a flat stage.

I take that back, EFs tactics...
