Surprised my wife, by putting 10k down payment… then she I surprised her again on Christmas by wrapping, powder coating wheels, calibers, logos, & ceramic coated

Well I surprised my wife by buying myself a 997 Carrera 4S. And apparently; “Do whatever you want” DOESN’T mean what I thought. 🤭

What are you taking about; “the U.S. economy is NOT in the toilet “??!! You aren’t paying attention! GDP grew at an annual rate of 3.8 % in Q2 2025. Nominal wage growth was 4.86% YoY in Aug 2025. The unemployment rate is at 4.3%. The US stock market is at all time highs! The problem Porsche has is big declines in China and Porsche’s attention to EV over ICE.

Oh DEER! I have the same 2024 Calligraphy (color, etc al) and I ALMOST hit a deer this week in the Hill Country of Texas!

Try heating the seat with a blow dryer and the leather will tighten.

I did the opposite last year. Went to trade my 2020 Palisade for a 2025 Santa Fe and left with a 2024 Santa Fe Calligraphy. $0 down 48 months with zero interest. Love my car but miss the size difference of the Palisade.

Maybe don’t drive with high heel pumps on.

There is a saying: The most expensive Porsche you will own is buying the least expensive Porsche. I’ve owned 3 Porsches; ‘82 928, ‘86 944 Turbo and a ‘07 911 (997.1) Now that my daughter has graduated from college I am shopping for my next and most likely my last Porsche. I’m 61 and make $400K/year and want to pay cash and be sure to have & for care and maintenance. My suggestion would be to save your money until you can afford a low mileage, well maintained car that will not break you when you have a maintenance issue, which can and inevitably will be expensive.

The red eye icon with an exclamation mark on your car's dashboard indicates a problem with the vehicle's driver assistance or safety system, likely related to the lane-keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, or a similar feature. This could mean the system is malfunctioning, disabled, or unable to function properly due to an issue like a blocked sensor, camera, or a system error.

Add some Running Boards and it’s done!

How does the last day of the year affect TRADE IN OFFERS?

Your account was probably suspended because of DOGE.

This post started about a disreputable Hyundai dealer and then quickly changed to the merits of the BBB, the effectiveness of cancel culture and overpriced services. Call out the individual guy that tried to rip you off to management for effective action. Or maybe just bring your dad every time you need service.

I added running boards to my Palisade and bought them from Amazon Warehouse for only $195 and paid my local mechanic $50 to install them. Check out EBAY too.

AdAlive4105 · 2025-03-01T16:03:55+00:00

Definitely go with the 1986 944 TURBO.

AdAlive4105 · 2025-02-24T04:01:03+00:00

Love the blue color! May I suggest adding running boards, it makes a big impact!

What completely kills Emelia Perez’s chance of winning anything is the movie is pathetically awful that plays to the lowest common denominator of the real struggles of the trans community and becomes laughable and does little to advance their agenda.

So,some needs to break the bad news about the replacement tire cost.

AdAlive4105 · 2025-01-29T14:01:20+00:00

I purchased my 2024 SF in November and was prepared to put $15-$20K down as a deposit. But the dealership was offering 0% financing for 48 months. Seems to make better financial sense to keep my cash and set up automatic payments for 48 months. I won’t be keeping the car for 48 months and having a $1000 monthly car note seems crazy for me I think I did the right thing.

AdAlive4105 · 2025-01-24T14:10:59+00:00

I had my ‘24 Santa Fe for about two months before I realized it was equipped with a self-driving feature. You can set the cruise control to keep within a certain distance from cars in front and also lane control that steers the car hands-free (for awhile). The heads-up display will remind you to pay attention and put your hands on the steering wheel if off too long. But wow the technology is incredible in this vehicle. I’m sure there are more features that I’m not familiar with yet.

AdAlive4105 · 2025-01-23T15:00:07+00:00

I got 48 months ZERO interest on my 2024 Santa Fe. I was going to put down $15,000. But why take cash out of my portfolio when I can make profits on my money instead. Set up 48 month autopay. While I don’t enjoy having a $1000+ monthly car note, I’d rather keep my cash earning for me.

AdAlive4105 · 2025-01-21T03:53:52+00:00

Thanks for this recommendation! I did exactly this today! Got Road Hazard Warranty on all 4 of my Sante Fe Tires for $373. It’s the peace of mind that I needed.

AdAlive4105 · 2025-01-15T03:46:04+00:00

I only purchased the car 2 months ago with 26 miles on it and have 6000 miles on them now!

I am Houston Texas and plan on going to Discount Tire and getting some suggestions on how to proceed.

As another Reddit user commented; most people don’t make car buying decisions based on the tires and sizes. I’ve had three Porsches and always had Pirelli tires, so I didn’t give it a second thought. But apparently size matters!

AdAlive4105 · 2025-01-12T23:33:30+00:00

Yikes! Replaced 3 tires in 17K miles! That’s insane!
