1165: Birthday Wishlist 2025.02

Here's another set of stuff for my birthday wishlist.

  • Nothing Phone 3a (not the 3a Pro). It's not that I need a new phone, but this is a phone I do sort of want. The camera, UI, and hardware is all better than my current OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite 5G, which is a given since the 3a is also I think a higher end phone.
  • A Thule Roof Rack System for the Wigo. I think since I'll be getting the "universal" roof rack that means it can hopefully fit on the roof of any car so this will be useful. I'm not sure what model is compatible with the Wigo but I'll be happy with whatever it is. Aside from a roof rack system, of course I'll be needing a...
  • A Thule Roof Bike Rack or two, as well as a Thule Roof Cargo Box. The cargo box I want is the one that's half as wide as the car, so that you can mount one bike rack and that cargo box on the roof. Yes, this will tank the Wigo's fuel economy but then again, it'll give me more space so hopefully I can go on adventures in the Wigo with my family or friends. While we're on the topic of vehicles...
  • Toyota GR Yaris 1.6L Turbo A/T. My really crazy ideal two-car garage would be the Zenix Hybrid being the primary car and the GR Yaris being the coding car (and my personal car). At least this would have enough power to hopefully overcome the drag from the roof rack and roof mounted gear.
  • Nomatic Wallet. I have a Sekrid card holder but honestly this Nomatic wallet intrigues me. It's smaller and theoretically lighter since it's not made of metal. This just means I'd need a coin purse aside from the wallet, though.
And that's my second batch of stuff I want.

Out.
