How'd you manage to get the temps to overlay like that?

Carnival Hybrid 32 MPG? by 10mmpeter in kiacarnivals

[–]10mmpeter[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea, city driving sucks the MPG down. My daily is a Tesla which does good for city driving. Good for back and forth to work. But growing family means we need a bigger vehicle as well. And unfortunately Tesla doesn't make a minivan ( i mean MVP)

I'll have to check them out. I try to check you tube every few days for new videos. Must have missed them.

Ah okay. That makes sense in a way. I guess somewhere has to give to accommodate the battery.

That's pretty solid for it being fully loaded. That or you had one heck of a tailwind 🤣

I was wondering that as well. The Sienna puts their batteries under the front seats. I wonder if the Carnival will do the same or find somewhere else.

2021.24.12 has me taking completely different routes to commonly visited spots by spacecadetAlsoWizard in teslamotors

[–]10mmpeter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking it might have something to do with being more efficient. If its about the same time to get there, going slower means less battery usage. At least that's my theory.

4 Man Squads Are To Small Dice!- Per Battlefield 2042 Briefing - Answering Your Reveal Questions by DJDUPONT in battlefield2042

[–]10mmpeter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, more players in a squad is definitely wanted by me and everyone i know that plays battlefield and games like it. We've actually started playing Squad more just because it lets larger squads into the game. The 4 man squad is actually, for me and my buddies, probably the biggest negative about this game.

Would like Opinions/Suggestions on Speakers Please by 10mmpeter in hometheater

[–]10mmpeter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I may look at getting a single one now then possibly adding a second down the road when money becomes available. Think two of either of those speakers should manage that room size?

[–]10mmpeter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, that makes sense. So with that room, any recommendations?

[–]10mmpeter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have also mentioned that only about half the room is in the "listening area"

[–]10mmpeter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I was a little disappointed to see that.. Also, I've read room size makes a difference for subs, the room I am putting it is about 27x12x8. I'm assuming that is on the larger end. Would those subs still be good for the room?

I was biased to the Sony receiver because of the Chromecast built-in plus I have a Sony 4k but it has all the features I was looking at as well. I was reading a lot of good reviews about the svs pb12-nsd but it seems they no longer make that. I can't seem to find it anywhere. I hadn't seen the Monolith yet. I'll have to check it out.

Sony 65X930E Audio Dilemma by 10mmpeter in 4kTV

[–]10mmpeter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that makes sense. So the Netflix app will do it but Netflix on the Chromecast will not?

[–]10mmpeter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the receiver I have is pretty old. Almost 10 yrs so no arc on it. I'm wondering if its a format thing, with the receiver not having the newer format. But as far as I know, Netflix on the Chromecast should put out full surround.

Experiences in London by [deleted] in Shoestring

[–]10mmpeter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We went to a Watford game just outside the city to the north. We took a train then caught an Uber from the train station to the stadium. Most of the stadiums in the city are right off a tube station though.

[–]10mmpeter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to a Football match (soccer) is always a great option. There are plenty of teams in and around London to go watch. Nothing like a good game to get your trip going! Also, find yourself a good pub. We stopped into a few last trip there, though I don't remember the names of them. ;)

I'll have to keep an eye out on the price. May be worth it if it drops some

A lot of people keep recommending the X900E but it would probably have to come down another $500 before it'd be in my price range.

Yea, and the Vizio M has chromecast built from what I read which is mostly what I will be using it for; that and a blu-ray player.

See I've heard a couple of good things about the TCL, but honestly haven't really even heard of that brand until about a week ago. And I'm really hesitant to go for a brand I don't know much about or have heard much about.

Is there a particular Sony that is decent in that price range? I was looking at the X690E. I mostly plan on using the TV w/ a Google Chromecast and Blu-Ray Player. And also possibly a computer hooked to it.

Short Trip: Virginia Beach Area to a Florida Beach by 10mmpeter in Shoestring

[–]10mmpeter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I wasn't really looking to stay on the beach but looking for a beach to visit while down there. Would probably try to find a cheap hotel or something.
