These threads always generate some cool stuff... What is on your Christmas list (or what are you buying for yourself from Santa)?

For me, some tools (battery charger and timing light both disappeared in the last 3 months?!?), AR10 pieces, sunglasses, bug-a-salt, and a new pocket knife that https://www.dnalasering.com/ have gotten their hands on.

Its funny, as we get older we still want presents, they just get alot more expensive 😂 I think top of my list is Jet Trim seats for my sandcar, Also looking at the Holley digital dash for my sandcar. I'm always looking at tools that I want, maybe a 110 motorcycle, really liking those see devil camp lights. My wife is usually pretty good about getting me stuff i need that i don't want to go buy myself, new goggles, riding gear, shirts, pants, ect. My in laws always get me a nice pair of sunglasses for christmas which is always a nice gift to get. I'm big into electronics too so I've bought or received go pros, camera stuff, ect. We should start a thread "What to give your wife for Christmas" I love buying her stuff but god dam sometimes its hard finding her something I know she will want! 😅

I guess I'm at a good place in life. All I want is a pneumatic can crusher.

Still furnishing the new Havasu house...

Rogue gym set up for the garage, cabinets for the garage, SxS, and more guns that I can buy in AZ and I can't buy in CA.

So yeah, only like $60k+ worth of shit 😂

I'll probably only have some Costco garage cabinets by Christmas time. Everything else will stay on the wish list.

Underwear. I do not want anything else. Really hate it when I get "shelf" type items. Just usually throw those way after the new year.

I’m thinking of buying myself a Glock 26 after the summer I had. Always wanted that gun, but I already have 3 compact guns so maybe an sig p320. I also have been in love with this diamond ring band that I’m hoping to get. Not really a jewelry person, but it has caught my eye.

Particle separator or a better rear chase light bar for the RZR.

More practical things-
Lodge Dutch oven
Comfortable camping chairs
Uggs
A cordless vacuum- I never thought I would want a vacuum for a present, but the cordless ones are awesome.

What's the difference? I honestly don't know much about em. Thanks. 😊
I felt that the Vertuo line's coffee was more bitter and didn't matter what typle of coffee i tried.... The Vertuo line is newer 5-8 yrs maybe longer because the original line's patent ended. I also feel that the machines for the Vertuo line didn't get the coffee hot enough and had to heat it up in the micro... In any case I drink this coffee in disposable coffee cup so I don't loose the heat in a cold mug.

I have 2 of these, 1 for the trailer and 1 at home.... First one lasted 8 yrs making 4 cups a day.... If you are a whole pot drinker then stick with a traditional machine.

We even travel with it if we are in a hotel for a week or longer....

I have also tried to use off brands coffee pods and they are not worth the savings.

Cool man. Thanks. I'm a one cup a day kinna guy!

I've read that same "not hot enough" complaint in a Lot of reviews. Guess there is some truth to that!

Thanks for the writeup. 👍🏼

The machine I use comes out hot and the disposable cups help keep the heat.

I had to buy coffee so this reminded me......lol

Are you talking like shop vac or house vac? I have the Milwaukee fuel vacuum for my garage. The attachments on it are good but i will say the sucking power isn't the best. For a house vac we have the cordless dyson. We got it a few years ago when they came out. Its a great vacuum but if your getting one definitely get the one with interchangeable batteries. Ours has a fixed battery and sucks because once it dies you have to wait forever for it to charge

I really want the Dyson one like @JLG614 mentioned. But, they are pricey! I currently have a shark corded vacuum and it doesn’t even stand up on its own. You have to prop it against something. I hate it.
