These pictures are more of the things arriving and what they're like in person so I didn't technically lie*.

Congrats on huge car purchase, why not.
You should get a nice lead holder to match it.

It's ok, we would all prefer you buy pencils and pens than knives and ballistic whatever :)

You'll like them. I've used Weathertech mats in my last 2 cars and they rock. Really high quality products.

I sure hope so... considering the price! And I only got the two front mats, couldn't justify $250 for something no one ever uses in the back seats

Holy poo poo, do they give foot massages at that price or what?

They're 'digitally' formed to each vehicles dimensions, so it's not just a 1 size fits all application.

And instead of just catching everything and letting it seep into the carpet surrounding the mat, they're channeled and raised on the edges, so you can easily empty them out

It sounds like I work for the company now, but I did some reading before hitting buy :)

After having regular winter mats in my last car, I remember the edges of the carpet getting absolutely caked in salt and slush from the winter, so looking forward to not having that mess



Picked this up today, finally found a nice fall into winter 3/4 length jacket

Either that model has the most elongated pelvis in history or those are dangerously close to being 'drop crotch'

They are drop crotch sweat pants, and they're $600

Heading to the US on some business soon so I'm loading up on some hardware that is expensive to get in Europe. In particular bought the 500 GB model of this:



I'm tired of my only 130 GB SSD primary in my desktop running out of space for games so it's time to upgrade and start replacing various components in the computer over the next two years.

Not pictured: a bunch of miscellaneous electronics, video games and an Xbox One.

Was it a good price? And from where?

I have the same problem, as I bought an 80gb and 120gb SSD back when they were still $200+ for the 80gb, my C drive is constantly running out of space.

Guys instead of ripping off an artist because you saw something that woot fatigue put on his wall why not go to red bubble or society6 and buy some art so that some starving artist can eat and you can get something to put up on your cave wall.

Nicking an artist's work ain't cool

Or browse the vast selection of artists selling their work in the SA Mart.
