    ICE or EV?

    If the EV truck craze is waning, maybe Ford could be bothered to cut the price on the F150 lightning? I'm still not seeing any lease deals on it: https://forum.leasehackr.com/t/f-150-lightning-reservation-ordering-discussion/391155/605

    How high will mortgage rates climb in the next 36 months?

    Can you comment on CRE inventory in Irvine? I have been trying to learn about that market but haven't been impressed by what I've seen on Loopnet.

    Newer Irvine listings with crazy WTF asking prices from equity sellers

    No, I believe in a free market and free trade. I think that government regulation often leads to unintended consequences. The power to tax is the power to destroy. We can agree to disagree.

    I think it's pretty dumb to be modeling US laws on Chinese restrictions.

    Retail Openings and Closures

    I was about to dismiss this place as yet another place disguising mediocre coffee with milk and sugar but then I saw the single brew chemexes of 100% Kona peaberry coffee. Yet another place to try!

    Amazing post. I'm going out for a lot more coffee this fall.

    Retail Openings and Closures

    I don't think there are any specialty coffee shops as defined by the Specialty Coffee Association of America. (e.g. a place that is really pushing the boundaries in terms of brewed drip coffee or espresso drinks) In an absolute twist of irony, the SCAA is in Irvine though I thought it was in...

    Anyone know where to get the new Pfizer booster ?

    Everyone else was too busy sharing their personal and/or political thoughts to actually answer the question directly, so I'll take the moral victory.

    iPhone 15 - All Island, No Lightning

    I got it. It was kind of a pointless gadget purchase. My case doesn't make it easy to use the action button. My previous phone (which was a 14!) would occasionally freak out so that was enough for me to make a change. I always charge wirelessly and my car has wireless CarPlay so the...

    Anyone know where to get the new Pfizer booster ?

    My aunt walked into CVS without an appointment last Friday and got one in less than 10 minutes. Tustin on 1st St near Sprouts. Moderna.

    Planned Shopping Plaza - Irvine Blvd & Pusan?

    They probably did counts of traffic vs road capacity, put that on a spreadsheet, and picked the most under-used roads by drivers. Basically just kowtowing to cars.

    How far away from train track is good?

    I think you have to seriously be outdoors and listening for it.

    Does this mean like...not Tier 1 coastal mainland Chinese cities?

    Walnut train noise

    I'd much rather be near the train track than the freeway. It might (?) be a nice time to get a deal in College Park with the fatal shooting that happened recently nearby. If you look at train schedules for Amtrak/Metrolink, service is pretty infrequent. I don't even know if Amtrak even runs...

    Beachfront purchase

    You don't even have to slum it in your RV - I've stayed a few times at the new bougie Mission Pacific Hotel on the pier. It's super nice but spend a little bit more money to get an oceanfront room and watch the street on a Saturday night and you'll see loud cars, music, and youths. I think it's...

    4151 Loma St - Why did this house sell for cheap?

    I think there's still a plaque on the HMart that references the stabbing victims.

    Planned Shopping Plaza - Irvine Blvd & Pusan?

    I love the off-road bike paths and bridges/tunnels. I wish we had more of them. I know how to bike with cars, but I don't feel safe on a bike lane when those cars are going 40+ mph. One mistake and serious injury or worse awaits for the person on the bike. Worse with kids. We drive for most of...
