Tell me about the MDX. I hear it's behind the other luxury brands. I currently drive a GMC Sierra AT4 but I'm used to Yukon Denali's.

I own a business and having a truck or large SUV is handy but my workload has shifted a bit and I want to drive something that's more fun and more comfortable. Yukon's just priced themselves way out of reality for most people. I live in Canada and bought my first Yukon Denali for $86K Canadian, the same truck now is $120k. Anyways, I like the MDX but I don't have a dealer that's closer than 2 hours away so I just wanted to get a general idea of what they are like to drive.

I should also mention in the mix of Yukons and trucks and did have a 2025 Audi Q7 55 and it was more fun to get around in but it lacked so many features from my previous vehicles and I didn't always get it warm in the winter so it was always telling me to keep driving because there's oil in the fuel. I've owned turbo vehicles before and I've never seen a light come on to tell me to keep driving unless it was my diesel that went into REGEN.

I got picked up in an Acura MDX at the airport once and I asked the driver what he thinks of it; he said that it feels like Acura is trying to catch up to Lexus/Infiniti but just isn't quite there yet. I assumed he's a driver for a company that drives luxury vehicles so he may be someone with a valid opinion.

Thoughts?

Does pregabalin help hangxiety?

I haven't had a drink in years due to the anxiety the next day. Does this help with next day anxiety after drinking?

I'm sure I'll be told it's dangerous to drink on this stuff, right?

Search function in Stremio? Is this the right spot?

I use Real Debrid with Stremio and I can't even search anything anymore. Is that an RD problem? It's pretty much useless to me now, as it just shows popular and new movies and series and most of them don't work. I have as far as I know all the addons I need. What happened to search?

I just spent $1100 on Dirac

It’s certainly made a difference over the A1 Evo Express. It utilizes the front towers a lot more for low end. I’m not sure I like the sound of 6 6.5” drivers trying to dig deep.

I think overall it sounds more like it should but I’m afraid to turn it up too much because I’ve blown the mids in these speakers once before. They are powered by an anthem 250watt amp it shouldn’t have been clipping.

Anyhow. I haven’t tried a movie yet but I think that’s where it’s going to really shine.

This was on a Denon 3800x.

Update to driving to my appointment for bilateral THR and driving home after (about 12 days)

I had stage 4 Osteonecrosis so both my hip bones were completely collapsed. My surgery was two hours away where my girlfriend lives. I drove there on the 21st, stayed at my girlfriends place and she drove me to surgery Friday morning on the 22nd. I was out of the hospital on Saturday afternoon. I had set up a king suite with a kitchen at a hotel to recover. I lived there until today and I drove myself home for two hours. I live in a four level split and have to use stairs to get to any different room.

Everyone thought I was nuts driving myself home but I got one of those wheelchair seat pads that redistributes your body weight so you don't feel like you're sitting on tennis balls.

I feel great and I'm so happy to be home!

I'm getting both my hips replaced. Bilateral Total Hip Replacement in a city two hours away. Can I drive? (More context inside)

I am getting both hips replaced on the 22nd. Bilateral Osteonecrosis. I'm getting it done two hours away where my girlfriend lives. Basically I can stay there indefinitely to a reasonable extent. I don't want to move in and I have my own house to maintain. I'm just wondering if I can drive there, rehab till I need to come home and drive home or get picked up and dropped off at home in case I can't drive home and be stuck leaving my vehicle there.

Would I be safe to drive after a week realistically? I know they say 3 to 4 weeks but I hear about people driving the next day but with both being done I'm sure recovery is going to be a little more intense.

I've been sitting in my house since January and slowly losing my mind and keep coming up with questions so I apologize for my blabbering. I am smoking weed for pain lol.

I have a rat rot Firebird that's an absolute blast to drive. I like the ratty style and not having to give a shit so much around MB roads as it's not pristine, but scoots when i put 1/3 jet fuel (bad joke..)

I'm just looking at some options as to where to buy the parts from. I can get everything online if I want but I don't know every nut and bolt I would need so it'd be nice to talk to someone who knows what they are doing.

I'm re doing the interior and want to try and bring the dash pad back. What should I use? I'm going to give it a good cleaning and order up some new guages and center stack (that will be blank. I don't have HVAC or radio).

Here's the ratty old gal on the outside...

Old mental hospital turned college

While I'm here does anybody know how to install the headliner, or is there a different way? I actually have the headliner but I have no idea how to install it. Is that a question that makes my post not low effort? I thought long and hard about this.

Live in Canadian Prairies if that matters. Natural gas. It’s time to renew my home insurance and to get the preferred rate I need to update my water heater. It’s over 15 years old so I’m okay with it. I live in a 4 bedroom house by myself. Should I just get a regular tank or are people going tankless these days?

Thanks!
