Husky Liners Classic Style Custom Fit Molded Front Floor Liner for Select Dodge/Chrysler Models (Bl

Husky Liners Classic Style Custom Fit Molded Front Floor Liner for Select Dodge/Chrysler ModelsNot as stout as weathertech mats, but a great value. I would buy these again. The fit was excellent.

UPDATE;

These mats have been in the car since 2009 and its 2013 now. They still fit pretty well, but have shrunken and don't fit the contours quite as perfectly as they did new. No big deal IMO, and I still give them a hearty recommendation.

Just flat out awesome! Great material, perfect fit, comfortable on the feet, easy to remove/install for cleaning. Live in Washington state and always outdoors. Shoes/boots/cleats are never clean. Now my car doesn't have to be a mess! When gatorade or water spills...I'm protected!

Samsung Blackjack i607 Rubberized Retractable Car Charger

Samsung Blackjack i607 Rubberized Retractable Car ChargerI received this item and I was very upset at how it fell apart so easily. Also, the charger does not fit well into the outlet, so the charge goes in and out.

Bought this for my wife's cell phone. Works quite well for the car. Vendor shipped item quickly with no issue with packaging. Only odd thing about this is the phallic shape of the charger for which my wife teased me...

GTMax White 2-Port USB Car Charger Vehicle Power Adapter with Extra Socket for Sprint HTC Evo 4G

GTMax White 2-Port USB Car Charger Vehicle Power Adapter with Extra Socket for Sprint HTC Evo 4Gno longer have to chose who charges their phone or if you use the radar detector, this thing rocks... I would recommend this for anyone needing two usb ports and still have the socket

We needed only one USB car charger with two ports and came across it. My hubby and I have the same cellphones, it's easy to plug ours into one while our son plugged his own charger in the back of the car. That works beautifully.

Uniden BTS200 Portable Wireless Speaker & Speakerphone with Removable Cell Phone Charger ? Cell Pho

Uniden BTS200 Portable Wireless Speaker & Speakerphone with Removable Cell Phone Charger ? Cell Phone AccessoryAs a recovering gadget addict, I am now cautious when buying new gadgets. Saw this item and it promises to play high quality music, charge your gadgets with the removal battery pack, and be a speakerphone...there are lots of devices that do one of these things, but this one does all really well. First thing I did after charging the requisite 7.5 hours was to test the audio quality by playing music via my cell phone (Nexus S). I was totally blown away by the sound of this thing! Incredibly dynamic range for such a small device; not tinny sounding or basey. It has a hole on the side for additional accoustic range and all I can say is it works. Even if all it did was stream music from a bt phone, it would still be worth it. Boom boxes costing twice as much don't sound this good. But add in the portable battery charger (USB connection to your device) and hands free phone, well, you could probably put peanut butter and jelly on it and eat it...

Update (24 hours later).

Ok, the streaming audio sound is still great. Then I tried making calls with it. First time I tried I called a place that had me on hold for 30 minutes. Then the operator comes on and guess what she can't hear me and hangs up! Arrgh! I call my buddy, he can't hear me. I unpair and repair the speaker with my phone and test the microphone quality on a voice mail. very very disappointing. it was crackly with sporadic drop out (though maybe that was my cell connection.). I compared the voice quality to the phone's speaker phone and to a new Blue Ant S4. The Blue Ant and phone quality were both very high. The BTS200 voice quality, not really acceptable--might as well use your phone's speakerphone.

So... two of the products three functions work very well. I may keep it on that basis--for listening to music and the portable battery system. If you're going to use this for music and don't want to use its speakerphone function you can disable that through your phone and just use it for audio. I tried using the BTS200 for music and the Blue Ant for phone. When I called the phone with music playing it shut off the music to the BTS200 and put the call through to the Blue Ant (but you could have it stay on the phone).

Conclusion--this is a great sounding portable speaker system for your phone. Or you can pull the battery out and use it for charging other devices. But relying on this product for good blue tooth phone quality (microphone) would be a mistake. There are other devices out there that do the phone and music both very well, but they cost a lot more.

Hope this helps.

I purchased this speakerphone directly from Uniden. Got it home and connected it up so that I could listen to my training and education courses at home using this rather than needing earbuds. Connecting it to my phone was easy and the only trick was to turn the speakerphone completely off and back on once it is linked with your cellphone. I am hard of hearing and the use of most earbuds requires that I remove my hearing aids.

First, the sound quality, both volume and reproduction are surprisingly good. I can listen to music on the speaker and it sounds great. Even the bass (on such a small unit). The speakerphone's functionality is good also. No complaints.

However, the use of the speakerphone for speaking is a problem. You must be within 20" of the phone and speaking directly into it for the other side to hear you. This is unfortunate. I think that I'm generous giving it 3 stars.

I'm keeping the phone for my original intent but I think that Uniden could have done better. Considering it is advertised as a bluetooth speakerphone.

While its nice, and very easy to connect. The person on the other line states that sound quality is poor. If there is external noise, like a fan running, the sound quality is affected.

The quility that I hear is very good though.. Nice for music.

I was so happy with the first speaker, I bought a second. I use one plugged in via wire to my computer at work and a second on our deck for when Im reading and want to listen to music. The sound is loud and rich from a really small package. An unusually large base speaker covers the bottom. This does cause it to jump around a bit if the volume is turned up on a "Thumpy" song. Still a great little speaker. We also use it for watching netflix on our ipad while camping!

Rayovac PS70 USB Car Charger

Rayovac PS70 USB Car ChargerJust used this product while on vacation, it has two USB ports that allow both my husband and I to charge our phones at the same time. Since the port is a USB it allows you to charge an IPhone and an Android phone on the same charger which is great for us. It powered the phones so quickly. Great product, get this!

Very pleased with this product. Its small so it doesn't take up a lot of room in my glove box and I also like that it has two USB ports or we can charge two things at once.

Xantrex Freedom 458 12-volt 2000 Watt Inverter / Charger Single Input-dual Output 20/15 Circuit Bre

Xantrex Freedom 458 12-volt 2000 Watt Inverter / Charger Single Input-dual Output 20/15 Circuit BreakersI installed this 458 12volt unit to replace the 24volt DR2424 unit to operate our house 4 Trojan L-16H-AC batteries. The 24 volt unit had a defective off-on switch. Having operated off grid since September 2001, neither of these units would properly charge our house batteries to the rated Specific Gravity readings of fully charged cell at 1.260-1.275. Had to replace the batteries continuously during the 2 year warranty period due to sulfation from the under charging cycle. Doing "E" charges did not correct the problem, but only increase plate shedding. In doing an "E" charge, my 7.5KW generator blew a stator winding which caused us a $6800.expense to purchase a new generator. The mfg would not correct the undercharging design cycle, and Trojan was kind enough to give us good warranty service on undercharged batteries. This last set turned in actually had sulfate which could be

viewed through the cap holes. On the 14th of January, I connected up the new Magnum

24 volt 3924 watt inverter to the new set of Trojan batteries with the monitor installed. This monitor will allow me to control the battery charge cycle, and adjust to prevent plate sulfation by reaching the correct Specific gravity readings after reaching the Float cycle.

I suggest that any one considering purchasing an inverter to carefully search for the unit that will fully charge each battery cell to the 1.260-1.270 values. We have gone through 4 sets of Trojan L-16 batteries due to undercharging. If smaller batteries are to be use, the problem I have experienced may not show up in their

system.

Update 11.15-2012. The installed Magnum inverter sales information given by their technical staff on 15 June 2010 was that their inverters operated by the gravity readings. This prompted us to purchase a new inverter, RD3924, from them in June

2011. Back surgery caused the installation to be done in January 2012. Right at the start, this new inverter proceded to operate in the same faulty condition as the Xantrex units. They installed a new custom control board with two missing resistors which almost over amperaged our generator windings. Their custom control board did not follow any of the inputs I made. Then they shipped me a remanufactured unit built in 2008 in place of my 2011 purchase one. In the process, I had the off-on switch fixed in our Xantrex DR2424, and removed the remanufacture Magnum product. In searching the internet for answers, I located Schneider Electric, and they gave me the information to set the DR2424 from the #7

position to the #2 position. This change adjusted the Bulk voltage to reach the factory 29.6 vdc, and continue it until the absorption cycle was completed. This ended the L-16H-AC battery cell undercharging. The short time the new December 2011

four new L-16H-AC were on the Magnum, one of the battery cells went dead.

Yesterday I install a new L-16H under warranty. In my discussion with the Trojan factory staff, they had told me to charge these tall batteries at the 29.6 vdc voltage, and in reviewing the downloaded information from the factory website, this same voltage is listed in the material. The conclusion, is that using these large batteries, the inverter purchased should have a voltage of 29.6 at the end of the Bulk cycle, OR you will not get the 80% Specific gravity reading in the battery cells. The last 20% charge is put in at the continued 29.6 voltage until the charge

amperage is lowered to the results of the rated amperhour battery rating divided by 40 is reached. In my case; 435/40= 10.87 amps. At this time, the Float cycle starts. My cell Spgr readings now are in the 1.280 value which is in the max value.

It has been published that the cell Spgr reading could go to 1.290, but that is really to high. The cell readings I am getting now, the possibility of getting cell sulfation is very low, and "Equalization" charges may not be needed as the higher Bulk voltage could very well stir up the electrolyte enough to prevent

stratification.

Magnum would not fix the problem using their engineering staff.

Have any questions, let me know. My system has been in operation since 2001.

Cheers!!!

Richard

This is a must have for all the Truckers out there. And also you campers and Rv owners. You will always thank us for this one.

IPX4 Waterproof Quick Fix Galaxy S3 Tough Case Motorcycle Bike Mount

IPX4 Waterproof Quick Fix Galaxy S3 Tough Case Motorcycle Bike MountThe item is of good quality and I use it for MTN biking, kayaking, and hiking in the rain. The good is it works and I can touch the screen. The o.k. is the attachment clap for the tube of the handlebars or poles. Not as strong of a grip as I would like. The "thing to work on" is the ability to touch the side button. You can not touch the side buttons, so turning the screen off or volume up or down has to be done by additional on-screen touches, instead of the quick button keys.

BaoFeng UV-5R Dual Band VHF 136-174MHz/UHF 400-480MHz 5W 128CH Walkie Talkie US Local delivery

BaoFeng UV-5R Dual Band VHF 136-174MHz/UHF 400-480MHz 5W 128CH Walkie Talkie US Local delivery
  • Frequency Range: UHF 400-480MHz VHF 136-174MHz(dual band)
  • Channel Capacity: 128; Channel Spacing: 2.5/5/6.25/10/12.5/20/25KHz
  • Battery Capacity: H-1800MAh Li-ion; Battery Life(5-5-90 duty cycle): About 12 hours
  • Frequency Stability:±2.5ppm; Operated Temperature: -20°C -+60°C
  • LCD Menu Operations

I talked to a Chinese student here at my college and this translated out to Stormwind which is an interesting name for a company. Now to the review.

This transceiver is very nicely made. I would thought that for the price it would be broken easily espeically when it came with a strap, ear/microphone and a charger. Now this transceiver is not for the beginner ham who doesn't have experience with programming this radio. It is highly suggested that if you buy this rig, that you get a programming cable so it is easier to program. Since the repeater offset is only good in Frequency mode, channel mode it does not save to memory.

In order to save to memory you first put in the RECEIVE frequency then Transmit frequency. Now be sure to put in the T-CTS (menu 13) or if the repeater transmits a tone then you set the R-CTS (Menu 11) For example 147.280 uses CTCSS then you would set Menu 11 and Menu 13 to the same tone. which is set in each menu item and it always starts from 67.0 even if it is set to say 100.0 good The good thing is you can type the tone in eg. 1035 will input the tone of 103.5hz before saving to the memory. Then after saving that you then have to set the offset frequency which will be 147.880 and save it to the same memory channel. When you save the receive frequency into the memory it will confirm by saying "Receiving memory." and the offset frequency by saying "Transmitting memory" and to confirm the settings exit the menu and switch to Memory mode and go to the channel you saved. It will show a +on the top of the display. Then if all is set right you should be able to access the repeater.

You have to repeat this for every channel you program. It is fine if you have 5 repeaters in your area, but very tedious if you have 25. This is why the usb programming cable is a must. This package has the handstrap even though it does not state that like other sellers do. For a radio around $50.00 it is an excellent buy for the cash strapped ham. Also a huge suggestion if you need to hear the repeater tail you must turn the STE from 5(ms) to 0(MENU 35) and RP_STE to off (MENU 36) and RPT_RL (MENU 37)

Pros:

Bright display.

Flashlight Feature (tap MONI to turn on and off this is NOT in the manual)

FM Radio Feature (Tap CALL to turn on and off this too is NOT in the manual)

5W/1W Transmitter both bands.

Dual-Watch (Suggesting that you set your TRANSMIT BAND TO A or B not OFF in MENU 34 otherwise you may transmit on the wrong band)

Color led display for TX/RX/Idle (Orange/Blue/Purple) Menu settings 29-31

Green/Red square LED to indicate Rx/Tx respectively.

Very loud receiving speaker. 1000mw. First time I owned a radio this loud.

1800mAh Battery for long standby time and a decent talk time.

Earpiece Microphone. (watch the volume level it can blast your ear out)

Drop-in Charger.

Cons:

Very limited manual.

Difficult/tedious programming scheme.

F-SMA (Reverse SMA) can be adapted from F-SMA to M-SMA for wider compatibility with an adapter there are also F-SMA to BNC as well as F-SMA to SO-239 ones that can expand types of antennas used.

This has an unlocked transmitting range on both bands so be careful if you use as a scanner, you may accidently transmit in areas you are not authorized.

Slow Scanning speed despite what the manual says.

Be advised that a particular seller (that claims to be the actual distributor for Baofeng based in KY) advertises the original UV-5R radio but then ships the UV-5RA instead. Normally this would be no big deal, as the UV-5R series of radios are exactly the same inside and have no additional features except one the "newer" UV-5RA unit has a different front plastic face plate but that newer faceplate causes additional problems the design of the newer faceplate on the UV-5RA does NOT allow you to use the normal Baofeng 3800mAH battery (nor the cheaper 3600mAH generic clone battery that the same "distributor" claims (and lists) as an actual Baofeng 3800mAH battery. They claim their generic battery will work unmodified on the UV-5R series of radios (their justification for the switch), but it doesn't. See my Baofeng Extended Battery review for more info).

Yes, you can modify (on your own) the Extended Battery so it will fit the UV-5RA (or the other series of UV-5R radios with modified faceplates), but if the "distributor" lists the UV-5R (but then switches your order to whatever they have in stock instead of what they have listed) and then ships (in the same order) a generic clone Extended Battery that isn't the actual Baofeng AND doesn't work/fit with the radio they shipped, why is it your job to modify their items to make them work?

In addition, when you (as an Amazon customer) point out their multiple listing errors (shipping a non-Baofeng battery, shipping a less than advertised 3600mAH model (vs. the actual Baofeng 3800mAH model that was advertised on the listing), and shipping an Extended Battery that won't work on the UV-5RA radios that they switched your order to and shipped with them in the same box), they claim that:

a) Baofeng doesn't even make an Extended Battery (funny since I own several already with Baofeng Electronics' label on the inside of the case and Baofeng's name imprinted into the back of the plastic battery case), and that

b) if I'm not happy I should pay to ship my order back to them (this is how they treat a customer that ordered multiple radios, extended batteries, and programming cables all at once and paid over $117 in shipping fees)?

None of these issues may bother some folks, especially those that either don't care which model of radio they get and/or never plan to get an Extended Battery as an accessory, but I wanted folks to know what customer service issues you may face in dealing with this Baofeng "distributor" in KY.

Very nice radio.

Small in size.

I would recommand this unit highly

the on ly dislike was the disk driver, to program it. It was not user fariendly.

American Hunter Feeders Solar Charger

American Hunter Feeders Solar Chargerproduct works great except when bears can reach them but thats not the fault of the product. this is the third one ive bought and they work great until the bears got them but i think ive cured that problem.

Purchase this to replace the original one on the feeder. It was amazingly easy to connect the wires to the feeder. Only problem is that the wires do pull out of the little white plastic connector very easily but can be pushed back in just as easily. I wrapped a piece of electrical tape around it once I had it all connected. It seems to be working great as of now.

Use & Price:

This was so affordable and a very neccesary buy since most of my daily gadgets require a usb charger and battery life is ever so more decreasing. I purchased this car charger for my cell phone, tablet & husband's cell.

Style & Quality:

The lanyard does not attach to this car charger in any useful way. I use the lanyard for one of my usb thumb drives instead. The car charger is a cute hot pink (which makes this girl happy) and is small (about 2"). It is made out of a hard plastic and has 2 usb slots (2 different apm volumes). Make sure you check your device to see which volume of amp you can charge you appliance with so you can prevent frying your device. small appliances like cells use the blue side where as larger devices can take the black side.

Durability:

Pretty durable. Accidentally dropped it, didn't even scratch.

I purchased it because it was pink. However, It would be perfect if it actually charged my phone. Also, the top piece (silver part) popped off the same day.

It works when it's plugged in all the way, but it's small and doesn't fit perfectly into the cigarette lighter adapter. So I have to make sure I push it all the way in when I need to charge my phone. Other than that I have no issues with it. It charges two devices at a time, so I can charge my phone and something else. It has a light when it's charging so I can tell when it's working. I have it for a while and I have no complaints.

Sirius One SV1 Satellite Radio with Car Kit

Sirius One SV1 Satellite Radio with Car Kit
  • Plug-and-play Sirius satellite radio receiver with car kit for easy vehicle installation
  • Offers access to more than 130 digital-quality music, sports, entertainment, and talk streams
  • Built-in FM transmitter; alternate suction cup mount and dash/visor mount
  • 1-line, 12-character dot matrix display with 180-degree inversion option
  • Measures 2.75 x 0.94 x 4.5 inches (W x H x D); 1-year warranty

A friend of mine gave me an Amazon Gift Certificate for Christmas and I used it to buy this little Sirius radio. Though other radios have more bells and whistles I am very happy with this one.

First of all, price-wise it cannot be beat. It includes everything you need to use it in your car (mounting bracket, power cable that plugs into the car lighter, antenna, remote control). At this time there doesn't seem to be a home kit for it. That was not a deal breaker for me since I was planning to really only listen to it in the car anyway. Plus, when you joing Sirius you can listen to all the music channels online.

Though this is a simple unit, it does include some nice features. There are presets that work great. You can set the display to show the channel you are on or have it scroll to tell you the artist and title of the song that is playing.

It has a built-in transmitter that transmits over the car's FM radio on an unused channel. This has worked great for me and I think the sound is very good. I did need to change the FM channel it was transmitting to (easy to change and you can have up to five presets for this as well) once or twice but once I found a truly open station it was crystal clear. It should be noted that I live in LA which is a very crowded radio market. Still I was able to find a clear FM slot to tune the Sirius radio's transmitter to. If you are not in a major market that should not be a problem at all, and really wasn't that big of a deal for me here in LA.

I think it is a sharp little unit and very solid. I am happy with it and if you are looking for a nice, low price unit this is a great choice. I am also very happy with the Sirius service. The music channels are great and I enjoy the sports and talk radio.

First off, this thing is $30 right off the rack. It's not like you buying a Marantz here, so stay real in your expectations. I have it in my car and it works fine. I had many of the same station bleeding problems others have, but they tell you right in the packaging that just using the FM transmitter is the worst way to use it. What I think everyone who has problems with it needs is a part sold through Sirius called an FM Direct adapter. I got one at Circuit City for $20. Since I'm not too mechanically inclined, I went ahead and let Circuit City install it, too, for $59. It now works perfectly. They mounted it on the windshield of my car (where you might have a parking sticker)and it has maybe an inch or two of wiring exposed. I'm not shilling for Circuit City. Go where you like or do it yourself, but the installers there suggested this simple solution and it now works great. And yeah, okay, I paid for the install so technically it was more than 20 bucks, but you get the idea. Oh, by the way, it can be hard to read on a bright day....I'll agree with that.

Nice and small (about the size of a pack of cigarettes) and comes with everything you need to install yourself. Sound quality via the FM transmitter is decent, though far from being outstanding. The unit does get quite warm which I've heard is normal. Reception (in Los Angeles)has been excellent. Price is right as well, a welcome compromise from having to shell out well over a hundred bucks for an in-dash unit. The best part: being able to once again listen to Howard in the morning.

Great little thing can't really beat the price. Yes, on some of the units the presets are not kept when you turn it off and it reverts back to 184 when you turn it back on. Before going thru with the return & exchange hassle please try this: Unplug and put back all cables going to the unit; go in your account at the Sirius website and in the "Services" section click on your ESN. Once you are in "Service Details" click "Re-Send Activation Signal". Make sure the unit reads "Updating". When it is finished you should be able to keep your presets and the last station before turn off. It really did work for me, hopefully it will for you too :) Good luck!

I bought this with low expectations. Others had said it was hard to read, and that the FM transmitter was no good. Well, the thing works great and the FM transmitter worked like a charm in my VW, but the screen is REALLY hard to read. Blue is just not a good color to try to see during the day.. At night it is great -doesn't match the VW blue guages exactly but looks good.

The satellite radio itself and the FM transmitter sounded great. The unit does get a little hot, but I had it in a very enclosed area.

I didn't think I'd care than it was a one line display, but it really does hinder you from "channel surfing" -you have to repeatedly switch between showing CHANNEL NAME, ARTIST, and SONG or you can have it scroll.

Overall, I still like this radio best out of Sirius' lineup -it is small, fits great it my little cubby below the radio, and works well. I just wish it was easier to read during the day. Setting presets for FM, and setting your favorite stations makes it easy to still use it during the day, just realize the limitations!

Wagan 3000 Watt Smart AC Power Inverter

Wagan 3000 Watt Smart AC Power InverterThis is my second Wagan inverter and couldn't be happier with it. I installed the first one in what I thought was a water proof containment that I made. It's in the shop to be repaired. My fault. The new one is installed inside the motor home and is working great. Great product and great price from Amazon.com.

My husband loves it :) he got it for his work truck; big enough to run a microwave if he wanted too.

Venture Heated Clothing SH-15 Heated Wrist Wrap

Venture Heated Clothing SH-15 Heated Wrist WrapI recently fractured my wrist in 4 places which ended up requiring 3 surgeries...one of which included inserting a metal plate. During the winter the plate got so cold it was nearly unbearable to stand which limited my mobility. That was until I purchased this heat wrap. It provided me with enough warmth to my wrist which in turn enabled me to be pain free as well as made my wrist more mobile. Due to complications the plate then had to be removed and arthritis set in quickly. Thankfully, I had the heat wrap as it continues to help me get thru the cold and the increasing stiffness.

McGard 27000 Chrome Bolt Style Cone Seat Wheel Locks (M14 x 1.5 Thread Size) - Set of 4

McGard 27000 Chrome Bolt Style Cone Seat Wheel Locks - Set of 4My son lost the "key" and had to buy a replacement form McGaurd. It was rather expensive, and shipping was extra. Actually extra extra, because he needed it quick. OK, it showed up, but the replacement uses a different size socket, so the OEM Volvo tire tool does not work. Now he has to carry another tool just for the McGard locks. How stupid is that?

What can I say, except they do what they say and they look better than the one in the picture.

VCAN Blinc 136 Full Face Helmet with Dark Angel Graphics (Flat Black, Medium)

VCAN Blinc 136 Full Face Helmet with Dark Angel GraphicsWhat can I say. This helmet is a great buy for your hard earned bucks. I purchased this model helmet over two years ago, and haven't had any problems since. I have the opportunity to ride year around and am very satisfied at the durability of this product. The helmet is not heavy on my neck and has a maintenance free black matte exterior. The Blinc Bluetooth was a nice addition also. I love being able to listen to my music while riding. I would definately reccomend this helmet for all riders looking for a low cost, high quality helmet.

Good helmet , a little noisy with face shield up and the shield is a little hard to raise blue tooth works great good sound.

The speaker in the left side came not installed. The same speaker quit working about two minutes into the very first time I used it.

So I bought this as a first helmet and I'm liking it. I sized my head as a large, but as a large this helmet fits pretty tight because of the padding. So I would order a size up or maybe wear it in. The paint job on it looks pretty bad ass and it doesn't looks like its going to peel off anytime soon. The only flaws with this helmet is that the visor fog up and vents don't work as well as they should. But for the money this is a great helmet.

this is a excellent product but beware, i already owned a size large helmet from hjc and it fit perfectly.

so i ordered this "VCAN" helmet also as a large and it feels like a small. i thought if i wore it for a couple weeks i could "break it in" and the only thing thats breaking feels like my forehead in the helmet (very constricting). Other then the size issue i had a great experience with the helmet and it is very stylish. I ride a honda shadow 750 with straight pipes, so i have to have the speakers at full volume for me to hear the music over the sound of the bike. phone calls are much quieter but if you can pull over and talk then it works great! its a shame i have to stick with my hjc for the long rides :/
