    Toyota Land Cruiser 2025

    Mitsubishi is not really Mitsubishi anymore, Nissan is not really Nissan either.. in 2016 they got together as a Renault–Nissan–Mitsubishi Alliance.. Chinese competition is tough in the automotive world.. So Renault–Nissan–Mitsubishi builds quite generic products whilst keeping costs/prices...

    The blue bike is a Yamaha TTR50 bro.. It`s a little 50cc automatic (3 speed, clutch-less), much smaller than what it looks like in the photos.. Only good for kids up to around 9 - 10 years old.. My 8 year old daughter rides it.. I dont live in SL though, but there are kids bikes available in SL.

    Havent updated this thread for a long time... Well, no new/updated cars for me... Really liking the dirt/trail bike scene these days.. Got 3 in the current fleet... :) :) From left to right.. Yamaha TTR50, Kawasaki KLX140RL, Honda CRF250... Not sure whether there are any people...

    I think the Alpinist is a better all-rounder. Can have a leather strap for casual wear OR a bracelet for a sportier look.. Cant swap standard straps/bracelets with the PRX, so that`s a negative point for me..

    Another minor issue with dividend ETF`s/Stocks: dividents are an income so you have to pay tax on the income (i.e. every year). If you go for captial gains, tax is generally discounted by 50% after 1 year (i mean in Australia).. ;)

    NVIDIA stock එකෙන් LEXUS එකක් ගත්තා.

    Yeah, that`s great. PHEV`s are not really my thing, but i get the appeal. Make sure to run on petrol once in a while and pump fresh petrol in. You wouldent want the petrol to go stale in the tank. There are also fuel stabilizers you can use to increase shelf life of petrol.

    NVIDIA stock එකෙන් LEXUS එකක් ගත්තා.

    Very nice! Congrats.! the NX is a perfect size for relatively narrower/smaller Japanes roads I suppose. I am deciding between the NX and the RX for my next car. Like the smaller size of the NX for daily use. But i need to tow at least 1500Kg once in a while, so the RX is the only option for...

    That`s because Nvidia powers infrastructure to run AI products, regradless who`s code it is... Their GPU`s provide processing power to train AI`s.. One day a competitor may bulid better products, but at the moment Nvidia products (i.e. Blackwell B200 GPU) seems to be the most powerfull mass...

    Umbala monthly subscribed karala tiyenawa services monada

    Yeah true, it may not be a deal-breaker based on what you can afford. But imagine if you save a small $20 a month by cancelling a couple of subscriptions. Say over 10 years, the compounding results could be massive. Compunding is a game changer, even if its a tiny bit invested over a long time...

    Umbala monthly subscribed karala tiyenawa services monada

    Agree, a 100%. Subscription services are absolute crap and could be a financial disaster over time for **most of the people.. Just like modern day "Buy Now Pay Later" services, online quick loans, etc... Using services/subscriptions to earn an income is fine though. Also on the positive...

    not sure about the price in SL bro.. About 650 dollars in Australia.. When they first came out, the RRP was 1050 AUD.. Prices have come down since the model is older now..

    It works OK, but you need good eyesight to read the minutes on the bottom sub-dai. :) I think this photo makes it look bigger. My wrist is also on the smaller side (6.25 inch) :D ------ Post added on 1715748773 See it`s not massive compared to my other`s here (blue GS here is a 37mm)...

    Fantastic piece for the money. Its quite heavy on the wrist too, feels like a mechanical watch in weight. The first release was 39mm, then they released a larger model at 41.4mm. I have a panda dial 39mm (Speedtimer SSC813P). Even the 39mm wears larger, might be better to try both sizes if...

    "Death Wobble" was only evident in older models with the solid axel front suspension. It`s not really specific to the G-Wagon, can happen in any 4WD with a solid axel front really. Has happned to me in one of the previous Land Rover Discovery`s i`ve had. Proper wheel allignment and installing...

    Talking about AD`s, I was in SL last month, so visited the Rolex AD at One GalleFace. They had quite a few pieces there for sale, though almost all of them were precious metal versions. And obviously some from the smaller sized/ladies range as well. Had a chat with the sales guy, he said...
