I don't follow sales ever. My tires get worn down, I get new ones. The sale was always last month.
The hexagon pans seem senseless. It's the coating itself, not the print pattern. Don't be fooled, young lady.

But it's that english guy - the coke head chef.

GORDON RAMSEY!

I mean, I understand he has a stake in them but still. Would he lie?

I have three stainless and one carbon - these are the real deal. But who DOESN'T want a realer deal?

Maybe you're right. I don't want to fall for some marketing gimmick. **** it. I got all the pans I need.

Thank you.

It all evens out in the long run.
Use the tires right down to "forensics-less tracks" and get a new pan when you see a permanent crust.

When I sell my house, doesn't matter if it's a seller's or buyer's market.
You get **** at one end and make out at the other... People time **** and I just compare notes later.
It basically evens out.

I'm a proud graduate of the always roll on good rubber school.

I never get my money's worth from a set of tires. I value my safety above the few hundred wasted by trading in at half-way down.

When I worked oil patch as a youngster, I bought a new pair of dot graphites DAILY. My cast offs went to my smirking work mates, who considered my habit profligate. They would get three days out of a pair of gloves, wearing the dots down to nothing.

The day came that those dot graphites saved my life. My foot slipped, I wasn't tied off, and my grip held only because I was locked in by the dots. Had I fallen, I'd either have died or had a very different life. There were valves upon which I'd have been impaled.

I don't care...i do not have any money anyhow.

THE SKY IS FALLING!!!!!!

All kidding aside, I had no-treads on my car right after I got a decent job out of college.
I was doing about 55 on a two lane, on a curve, Michigan springtime slush and bare spots.

There's a certain feeling you get when you know you are hydroplaning (easy to do on slush) and j u s t  maintaining your line. I was on the inside lane and another car doing about 55 on the outside lane. If I broke loose from the curve, same as you, my life would be radically different today.

My dots were worn down to nothing, so to speak.     That was a real lesson in cheap stupid and prioritizing expenditures.
I don't run on **** tires IRL. Not since broke college days anyway.

btw
Maybe your hero Cokehead the Cook knows his stuff about pans.
All I know is they last way longer when you hand wash.

Yup.

These days, suspensions are so much better. Hydroplaning is less common - but still horrible.

I'm passing on the hexclad until I decide they're not the "latest greatest" gimmick. I don't trust that limey.

There's only so much a suspension system can do. Tread patterns are better on tires too.
But when you're on certain surfaces, slowing the **** down is the easiest, most effective way to save paint.

Indeed.

One improvement I like a great deal is that cruise control no longer continues operating when wheels lose traction. It used to - which made it impossible to use cruise on cabled roads.

Cabled roads more refers to unmelted spots of ice and snow - not so much your black ice.

I predict next Friday is going to see retailers radically dropping prices. I don't know what the **** is going on, but this makes me plenty nervous. 

And acquisitive. Ima get me a shave, a shoeshine, and a suit!

I get what you mean.
Black ice is like a puddle that froze overnight and doesn't have to be deep or noticeable (hence the nickname).
Cabled would appear to be what I would call the leftover ruts in the snow and ice that are the last to melt.

Well, I didn't say it was perfect...   

Well,it's Friday.
I predict that my family and I will spend 2 to 3 hours at the range today.
10 pumpkins and 10 ,1 pound jars of tannerite. 5 ARs,3 shotguns,6 pistols and an old Marlin 45/70.
That's just what I'm breaking out.
