I’m on 4 groups and it’s interesting that yes, see stuff like, “check engine again on my new 2025 (Don’t like to see this).” There was a response, “Check engine? bro, I’ve had my engine replaced twice and waiting to hear on the third.” I asked is yours a 2025? Crickets. Then there’ll be...

The one showing is not a pure sine wave so imho you don't want it. This is what we used at work and we have hundreds upon hundreds (5-6), out of the likely 80 I did myself, only 1 was DOA...

I resemble that remark, as we have one on order Was JD Power really, ever, any more scientific (reliable and valid) than Consumer Reports? I'll never live CR down. My 2007 car, that is my daily driver today, was on the CR "Most Unreliable" and "Avoid" lists for 2007. Suddenly, a few years...

I rented a car at RDU. I didn't check it we were in a hurry to get to Fayetteville. After we got done that day at work, the rear right was dented. Trying to call to tell anyone was useless, it truly was, call going offshore, etc. I drove like 1 hr 15 back to RDU to tell someone this car was...

We have 2 Sunoco stations across the street from one another. Which reminds me I need to file a complaint with bureau of weights and measures. Pump didn’t dispense what it said. If so my car got 8 mpg. I know my car. Gets closer to 9 (j/k). A woman across from me also was complaining. The...

These numbers look reasonable. For us ordinary folks, imho we feel the difference when going from one place to another. For example, being in Phila., when we go to NYC or DC, everything feels expensive. I assume Tampa is costly as I've seen pics of their development and they won the Stanley...

Having a vehicle which does not require hands on the wheel at all times, able to shop at Costco while working from home

It really sounds like the features on the vehicle up your driving skills and abilities, and what other things one is able to do while taking a trip. Much like a kid in 5th grade playing NHL '25 on PS5--suddenly they have the ability to play at the NHL level. What happens when someone has all...

Because our car was a total loss, we ordered a new one, and super cruise was an option I specifically did not want. I do realize simply bypassing it when it was available, makes me old in thinking. It looks like it would be nice to have if it were included, and then the car owner had to pay...

Nice! Why not give stuff to others if they can use them? I gave my buddy who rents a house my 2002 Craftsman and he uses it to this day. The engine is indestructible but the platform isn't... On another note, my uncle ran a quick oil change / service at a very busy intersection. Customers...

These are not big deals...but I think that the signs should be written in a way to convey what was intended. Here, they could say, "Reserved for parents with children under 5 in the car not at home or in school or with your ex, but if you park there anyway, nobody will say anything." :ROFLMAO...

that's such a funny term, I referred to a woman at my gym as a "sea hag" and with my buddy it conjured up all kinds of visions of Scotland and the Loch Ness etc.

At my local YMCA, a row of the closest parking spaces to the front door say, "Reserved for parents with children." At any given time, cars park and someone gets out without any kids. They're parents, and they have children. Just not with them. Some are likely fully grown as they look like...

Imho it’s a German and American thing to get a car as you want it. Japanese have never been that way and have always sold their vehicles in packages, leading to inflated list prices with lots of things people pay for, but don’t want. I would think it’s more costly to allow custom...

Guys, I’m just kidding. Have you ever banked in the largest credit union in the country? What I mean is in person, in a branch. You’re essentially stating everyone in here deserves special treatment.

My office is a 2019 mid rise. So it had free EV charging until this year. Turns out, there were not enough EVs to use all the spaces, so paper got taped over EV signs saying you do not have to drive an EV to use this space. So ghetto—new bldg where they simply taped paper over the signs...

Our trash is included with our taxes. Many people in other places pay for trash, and they choose the size of the container, like my mom. She gets the smallest. So you can say ours is a buffet. It bugs me when I see 1200-2000 sq ft homes with 5+ 44 gal containers left out for collection. It...

btw thought I would answer as I tried with Toyota back in 1997, and was told no, I could try to get an allocation of the dealer's that closely (key word closely) matched what I wanted. Toyota does not have ordering. I would not think ordering is beneficial to anybody but the buyer. Some...

I think 15k is too soon. I don't think it's scientific but don't a lot of owner's manuals say, if severe duty, 50k, if not, never? (never understood this logic) Our Japanese car indie told me, to do 3X and this was at 80k. When I said is there any chance my trans could get damaged by new...

My thoughts are something isn't right, but maybe replace the thermostat with the correct one? And if it still runs hot, potentially the radiator isn't doing its job? One of our cars does not have a temp gauge, but the others have always had the needle in the same spot, and one is a 2007 and...
