This is not a competition that I want to be in (we do think alike...tangible items), but my portfolio is down, not lost because I didnt sell anything, the below (sticking to the thread topic, very poor gas mileage)....and if we had a competent administration, this would have not happened. It didn't have to happen. Slow reacting....focused on the wrong things (climate doom)...amateur hour academics that never even managed a tag sale.

It will eventually come back...but slowly. Until "America" speaks again! With early voting, I'll be sure to round up as many ballots as possible to get the desired change we need.

.
Same, no realized losses, it's just going to take a long time to get back to even and then up a Turbo. I am actually down a few 911T's.

I see you don't have many posts. Honestly, this really doesn't happen much around here and it is isolated in the general chat thread. I am the one that made the Biden wise crack that started it.

Join in on the gas mpg topic, I will stop with the political talk.

Agree with this. First time I’ve partaken in it and really have seen it too.

You should go to the political forums, all they do is talk about cars.

Correct, but I’ll take a page out of the LogicalApex playbook by saying you commented on the topic you didn’t want to speak about. But, refrained from speaking on the topic you came here for. So, what is your observed mpg in your 530e (assuming)?

Okay I'll engage. Your assumption is wrong. I recently picked up a 2020 M550 after selling my F80 M3.

Now my assumption. Given all your monikers I assume you're compensating for some deficiency.

Anxiously waiting the keyboard tough guy response.

No doubt I have a small penis and inferiority complex. I’m just fucking around. I was going to say this isnt the 3er forum but don’t want to offend you even more. We keep it relaxed around here.

But you still didn’t discuss your gas mileage. You’re not gonna get away that easy. 😀 BTW - Congrats on the purchase.

Why do I have the scene in Goodfellas going through my mind where Joe Pesci shoots and kills spider the 15 year old booze fetcher after he stands up to him because Dinero eggs him on ny saying, "you're gonna take that?"

There’s always going to be a few lefties in any population. The best are the post wealth accumulation lefties. Helps them sleep better at night but they already made so they don’t personally care about policies.

Spent many years contributing on the E46 and F80 forums. Appears you're correct.. I would be better served searching political forums for G30 info than wasting my time here.

F*ck you guys I'm going home! That's a south park reference for those of you that spend all your time contemplating conspiracy theories.

We were horsing around….but he obviously got political by his response and didnt want to participate in our fuel mileage solar energy climate crisis talk. I’m sorry, but I had to pull all stops out by pulling his street cred.

I must extend my sincerest apologies for participating in the jacking of this thread.

I Must admit, I suffer from irrational exuberance and ADD at times. I will try to keep it clean for the next 24 hours and stick to the subject at hand.

luthers4 this got way out of hand. We are a bunch of jackasses around here that don’t take ourselves seriously. That’s not to say we don’t have our views but we take as many shots at each other in good fun as we did to you and I’d argue that we really weren’t coming at you as you seem to be coming back at us with a vegence (Pulp Fiction).

Anyway, I’m sorry this took a sharp right turn. Stick around. I’ve been on forums for many years. I started on Roadfly and still am active on the E39 forum (I have one) and many G30 boards and groups. This particular forum is one of the best and respectful forums I’ve ever been on. Politics aside, we are all super helpful and the posts are meaningful and helpful.

Yes, sometimes we think we are funnier than we are, but we all can laugh at ourselves at the end of the day.

Congrats on 2020 beast. It’s a phenomenal car.
