    LOL, I and I'm sure many others have noticed weather shifting patterns YEARRRRRRS AGO!!! Well before the "global warming" debates or even conversations were being brought up about it!!! Now it's at the point to where there is really no "Spring"???!!! It just goes from "cold" to "HOT"!!!

    Considering the same brake set up! Landed on your post, lol. :hattip:

    How have the brakes and rotors held up? Issues? You have green 7000 or regular green stuff? Any noise? I was also looking at the orange extra duty... Thoughts? :)

    I'll have to check tomorrow to see if they're the regular or 7000 version.
    So far so good! No complaints. Next go around I'll give the yellow stuff a go, the green stop well but I'd like a little bit more. Or possibly swap to 4runner brakes.
    They were a bit loud during the break in process, but now there's no noise.

    The ocean out here is colder than SoCal ocean temps in the winter, and bath water "warm" in the summer. Freaky "warm".

    Wild, how cool does the water get in the winter? I think coolest here is 58 in the winter and can get up to 72 in the summer.

    low to mid 50's- depending. I think normal in summer is 82-85 or so. Imagine being in 80+ degree ocean water- its weird!

    Living most my life in San Diego- took a while to get used to the ocean temps here! (of course- driving from the IE to the ocean in mid June is a shocker too!) :eek::D

    Busy AF!! Doing well!

    Right now South FL is under mandatory evacuation. Many are coming here to Charlotte. Grocery stores here are running out of basic food items and bottled water, lol.

    I just bought some more meat, charcoal, and bourbon. :thumbsup:
