New daily driver. 2019 X3 M40i. Damn this thing is a great little car. 
 

Time to clean up the F10 and list it for sale.

That X3 stamping in the B pillar.  Sharp.

I know we've got some fisherman in the group so I wanted to share this one my son caught two weekends ago up in Luck, WI on Little Butternut Lake.  According to my scale it was a 14lb bowfin!  He caught it on a size 6 hook fishing for panfish.  He hooked it and reeled it in all by himself.  It's easily the largest fish he's ever caught!

He was so excited!  He's already addicted to fishing and after this he kept yelling "I LOVE FISHING!".  I also taught him how to kayak that weekend and he proclaimed he's an expert and wants a kayak for fishing.

Soooo who else is getting one? I love the look, I was expecting just a plain white plate so this was a pleasant surprise.

@zojaveAmy's Ti pictured, she helped organize the petition to the DOT. I love how the design turned out as well.

Damn, looks like i'll be refreshing for awhile.  I thought it was 10/1 for some reason.

[RobZR]

Can I get one in a collector plate?

Unfortunately, it doesn't work like that.

Took the OM-D and Sigma mini-wide along for this weekend's climbing adventure.

I scrambled up the talus on the west bluff to a boulder problem called Super Slab, explored around the base of the prospect point area, then climbed Wiessner's Chimney. The top of Wiessner Wall is one of the best views of the lake that I've found so far. I'll have to get up there with a wide-angle in the next week or two when the colors get a bit better.

Dude paddle boarding with the doggos. Fog really lingered today.

[YoungCR]

I really missing being so close to that area.

Thief's thieving?  Better ask the OEM's to add items that will inevitably raise the cost of vehicles and replacement parts.  Where the fuck is the common sense?  Makes too much sense to root cause the problem and focus on reducing theft when we can just make the consumer pay more for a deterrent that will be defeatedly sooner than later.

It’s like the big rental van companies putting metal cages around the cat....because the cutting tools only work to remove the cats and not the metal cages lol
