    I've got a victorinox Swiss army watch my wife got me in 08. It's my only other watch besides my Garmin. I have literally beat the shit out of it, worn it multiple Spartan Races, surfed in it, wear while working on cars etc and it's still working great. I just had to get a band custom made for it cause the watch has long been out of production and has an odd lug spacing so only a custom band would fit.

    What did you guys all pay for window tinting? Got a quote for $220 for all the windows and moonroof (no windshield).

    So maybe $35 a window. I have 6 windows. So 35x6=210..not too far off. I did ask for good tint that stops the heat too, dunno what you got put in.

    He quoted $80 for driver and passenger fronts on the 4runner, so he's not way off that price.

    My truck crossed 100k not too long ago and within 2017 I had to replace both wheel bearings and some pulleys and a tensioner up up front with the serpentine belt. I think I might be due for brakes soon. I got the truck at 84,000 and it was a 1-owner. I'm thinking the guy didn't do any maintenance on it so it is all gonna hit me at once lol.

    Wireless charging is cool, but the only scenario I see it being beneficial is in the car where I can control everything from the dashboard (so basically if my car has apple auto or w/e its called)

    I'm not into watches but I heard about these guys https://www.mvmtwatches.com/

    cool designs that aren't terribly expensive

    I'm glad you put battery in parenthesis, cause I would have had to google quartz movement lol

    That sounds about right. I paid 185 for all four and the rear window when I lived in Florida so 220 isn’t that far off. Depends on what kind of tint too. Is it the standard stuff or ceramic?

    I *think* it's ceramic. I think the competition in florida is a little hotter so prices are probably a little lower. I have the moonroof to get done too
