If it makes you feel better, I just wrote a $1300 check for penalties because the IRS hasn't processed an older return yet and thus thought there was an underpayment for a more recent return.
Have also been working on an estate return for 4+ years now... It's a mess.
Also for the ones that ship from China instead of importing in bulk this is still going to be a pain point since the de minimis $800 exemption is kaput.
30% is a lot greater than 0%. (but much less than the war rate of 145%)
"At this point, Ernest says he was so frustrated that he briefly considered tying a rope around the frunk, connecting it to a tree, and yanking the frunk open" -that is a real quote this time but not from Musk...
For me the lip would work well enough as a handle, but that opening would be great drainage so this ducktail doesn't just funnel more water into the bed.

He's doing his part, we need to hurry up and help Elon out too. Rivian Head can't be the only one to love Teslur.
DeMuro's review dropped today as well:
I love that it is coming to market, but I hope the interior quality looks a bit better in real life. Feels a hair like Spirit Airlines knocked off the R1T. (looking at you slide out cupholders)
Such a fun little option! Who wants to start a spec race...
I pull over and switch this from my left (resting position) to my right foot (hard acceleration mode)
(I couldn't find a nice high flip flop that matched the floor mats so the change over takes a bit longer)
Yeah, I was excited about that DeWalt OBD item too until I did the math and read the reviews of them breaking frequently.
Now that we know the 12v is the cause of the vampire drain I hope we can eliminate something causing that drain on the 12v. For instance if there was a fuse to pull that...
I'm sorry I assumed you'd be able to follow easy instructions online, this thread should have prepared me better. If anyone else can convince you or explain my instructions I'll happily honor my commitment once you post and pick a charity but for now I'm letting this go after 9 pages of...
