An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.
Its such a shame that the 5th gen dodge caravan/ town and country has so many issues. You can pick them up dirt cheap in good condition, but you'll have a bunch of small (and big) problems. They came with the stow n go and some had swivel and go where the second row seats could spin around and face the third row.
Yeah, our Ody only has stow and go for the 3rd row bench. It would be nice to have a stowable 2nd row as well
We've never had any major issues with it outside of scheduled maintenence
The dodge 3.6 has a major issue where one of the internal oil galley plugs comes loose causing loss of oil pressure to the rocker arms. It presents itself as a ticking noise coming from the engine. You have to replace the rocker shafts, rocker arms, and if you let it get bad enogh, the camshafts.
Dodge fwd tranamisaions have been an issue for almost 40 years. People neglect them and put the wrong fluid in them, which makes them go bad.
That's a nice whip
Job well done
How many cup holders does this chariot hold?
That's 🔥
I'ma wash my drip today and spend all day at the crib, y'all.
My father totaled his odyssey and he has missed it ever since.
He plays drums in a pretty popular bar band in our area so he's got gigs most weekends and when he also had 3 boys he was able to pile all of us in there with a full set of drums if he had to.
Thankfully all his boys have gone off to cause problems elsewhere in the world and he has switched to a full electric set so now he rocks a Prius happily, but he does always say he misses that Odyssey any time it comes up in conversation.
Just a great vehicle all around.
The minivan is the peak vehicle. You can fold down or take out the back seats and fit a 4x8 panel no problem. You can travel, haul, and store till your heart is content in it. It is a car chassis so it is low to the ground but with a tall cabin so you are nice and upright. No one even looks if you sped because you have like an invisibility filter against attention. Not only that, the only knock is that it isn't cool...which makes no sense, if getting a sports car is "compensating" then having a minivan proudly means you have nothing needing to compensate for. It is the sigma of vehicles. (2013 town and country owner)
I'll defend minivans until the day I die. They're perfect. I have a friend who keeps talking about wanting a truck and any advantage he lists is better with a minivan for his use case. Way better storage, comfort, and convenience than a pickup.
My dad's hobby is lumberjacking and he just retired his 2003 Sienna, the old family van, for a 2013 Sienna. They're ideal because they pull his trailers no problem and store all of his tools at a nice low height that's accessible from all 3 sides.
I'm single, but like doing trips around the state. I've been slowly convincing myself to get one. Gas mileage is about the same as a common suv.
SUVs are terrible, so if that's your alternative I'd say minivan all the way. You could pop out the seats and sleep in the back easily. If you don't need that you might as well get something smaller with better mileage.
That's what I'm starting to realize. I do like mine's compact size for maneuverability. But not likely it's the end of the world, or that I'd be physically moving it myself.
Lookin fresh as hell, friend 🤙
Hell yeah. The Honda Odyssey is/was peak minivan.
Sick ride bro.
SHEESH
Clean. Not just clean, I mean cleeeeean
