    Vehicles spying on you.

    They want to overcharge everyone as much as possible continuously. Only way they might rethink policies like this is if they face severe consequences

    Vehicles spying on you.

    Gotta wonder why it’s not an automatic refund of premiums on affected vehicles. Why my insurance quadrupling is likely due to this. I never agreed to Onstar when I bought both of my GM products and they still did it, over the years I’m owed probably about 25,000 in overpayments

    Hertz EV disposal plan in effect.

    There were a few in the mid teens back when this first started, because of timing hertz started selling at what was apparently a bottomed out model 3 market which then rapidly went back up in price. That dip maybe lasted a few weeks. Gotta wonder who would buy this? If it was $3500 maybe but...

    Misleading headline regarding home foreclosures; is there any integrity in media sources?

    The sticky widget is that a place like Reutsch which controls 10’s of thousands of properties has hundreds or even thousands of “owners” in its umbrella to get around regional laws pertaining to interstate corporate ownership. Some Management shells remove liability to the investor which...

    Misleading headline regarding home foreclosures; is there any integrity in media sources?

    Commercial real estate is already in mass foreclosure across the nation, nobody has made big moves to step on the bomb yet hopeing these entities will start getting cash flow. Neither the management companies nor the bank want the properties. There are already -700 new car dealers under bank...

    Misleading headline regarding home foreclosures; is there any integrity in media sources?

    Last few weeks have been having a variety of layoffs (again) amongst most 6-7 figure earners. With losses across the board in the auto market we can expect lots more layoffs across the auto related sectors including financing and accessories With the yield curve perpetually inverted and a...

    Misleading headline regarding home foreclosures; is there any integrity in media sources?

    Sort of, depending on what fuzzy logic we include into the single family metric (which I would say is significantly less than 33m paid off mortgages we view as a normal single family home) We get in my mind roughly half of “paid off” mortgages as being held by some type of investor. More fuzzy...

    Ozone machine alternatives

    What your describing could be a fouled HVAC, mine goes from wet dog to mold smell. If you run the “professional use only” ozium directly into the hvac ac air pickup with on full recirculating doors closed as soon as you can and let it sit a while that might help. Be careful as you can...

    Ozone machine alternatives

    I assume you’ve pulled the cabin filter and blew it out with a leaf blower then replaced with a new filter? Yes an industrial ozone generator does wonders too bad they are expensive and unreliable. If the carpet and seats got soaked with nasty and surface cleaned it’s a tough problem

    Why do people use the rear brake?

    If your not sure of conditions you ideally start on the rear to test conditions then slide into the front once you know what to expect. Locking the rear usually isn’t as bad unless you are the dumbass that only starts braking after the curve starts, around here the tighter curves conveniently...

    Sub Inflation

    I get still get most footlongs for $6.99 since I only buy the sandwich with coupons. Sadly coupons don’t work on salads, (they won’t chop them anymore either) also the bread now days is more narrow and tapered which makes the sandwich smaller dimensionally. Since Subway is still a place I can...

    What powers the ac compressor on an electric vehicle?

    My antique Insight did, the assumption was that the fan over the cold AC coils was good enough to keep you cool the <5 min you are normally stopped. Once any of a variety of different parameters was hit the motor could restart even in estop and ac would start again

    Hit a stretch of sand, greasy road or scattered gravel while braking solo front without ABS.
