    Not sure if anyone is on the market for a new big ass TV...but....

    I've been on the hunt for an 85"+ sized TV for a couple weeks now but did not want to fork out $2,500+ on one. Prime day and Best buy had some decent deals at $2,300 or so but I also came across HSN that had the same TV for $2,129.

    https://www.hsn.com/products/lg-qned-mini-led-tv-qned85-series-86/20610920

    If you have a Rakuten account, they are doing 10% cash back on HSN so really you're getting a 2022 model year Mini-LED TV for less than $2K.

    Feel free to PM me if you don't have a Rakuten account and I can send my referral code and get you another $30 off!

    We actually had an event called Bondfest in high school. Somebody even made a soundtrack. Can't remember what the winner got, but I'm 90% sure I lost to a grenade launcher at the Stacks.

    This will probably get buried but if anyone is interested in a 35” spare I have no use for mine.

    It’s a steel wheel with a 315 procomp at sport. Neither have any road time. Here’s a couple bad pics. Will trade for any number of beers. Even one. Unless you are going to resell it. Please take this before I have to resort to Nextdoor.

    Just at a quick glance/walk around it looked to be done pretty well. I worked on a truck a while back that was done by a different local shop (not hot metal) and some attention to detail was lacking. Example, king remote hoses rubbed through by tires because angle reservoir was mounted at put it right into the sidewall. This one looked like a pretty solid and clean build. Fenders were cut well, add ons were mounted clean etc. Nice set up

    Threw this together last night. It was a really good show, especially for it being the "1st Annual"

    Definitely check it out next time. Hopefully it will only get bigger and better.

    Look at your sales contract again, it should be exactly $1 less than msrp. I think they do this because they have all this advertisement up at the dealer that say they always sell below msrp!
