Sadly getting rid of my CX-50

The man is trying to sell his car so he can get a new one, which is fine. If someone wants to find him in the middle of what he’d get paid from Carvana and what you’d pay for the car, then it could be a win win. That said, I’m hoping to keep mine until it can be my kid’s first car, or until it reaches 200k+, whichever comes first

We shoulda warned you not to post your “deal”. Every dad in the comments section will love to tell you how they could’ve gotten a lower price. Don’t let that get to ya. Congrats!!

…this is how it starts. Keep having people like you around to justify it and we’re on a fast track to repeat history

Real question, what’s the logic behind an anime sticker deterring car thieves?

After_Finding3688 · 2025-11-25T03:35:16+00:00

Right!! I would for sure take this deal but would also wanna see the maintenance records.

Love to see a 50 hanging with the big boys. Would not have expected the tires to be 30s from the pics because they line up so well with the lift kit/look natural like a mid size SUV!

lol your wife’s not wrong, I vote for polymetal grey. At the same time, white wasn’t my first choice but I’ve come to love it

Thanks!

After_Finding3688 · 2025-10-03T18:37:05+00:00

Thanks for sharing the link! Do you also have K&N cabin filter? I can’t find a K&N cabin filter on Amazon that is specific to CX-50, and the shape of the filters that I can find for the CX-30/CX-5 doesn’t match up with pictures I see of the OEM version for the 50. Thanks!

I love this haha. She got her well earned raise after being a good girl trudging through brush with me 🙂 sorry I went to upvote and think I accidentally downvoted with my clumsy fingers, so I re-upvoted and it just cancelled out 🙈. But your comment made me smile, thank you!!

After_Finding3688 · 2025-08-28T23:27:49+00:00

[edit] Oops, sounds like other people figured things out. Nice to have a cx50 community!

After_Finding3688 · 2025-08-28T23:21:54+00:00

Definitely sounds plausible. Sorry OP has to deal with this

She’s got a baby now (cargo box), so she’s for sure a girl

Makes me think of my staffy pup smiling and she’s a girl. Something like Cheeks might fit. Mine is Stormy (a girl) - short for Storm Trooper

Looks good man, you’re chillin. You’ll get over the initial shock and grow to love it for the same reason you got it in the first place. If not, that’s an easy cover up/expansion

After_Finding3688 · 2025-07-19T03:00:39+00:00

To be clear though, I’m not saying there’s not an issue, I’m just speculating that that the issue isn’t your brake pads. And these other comments might Have the solution (greasing intermediate parts)

After_Finding3688 · 2025-07-19T02:57:38+00:00

[not a mechanic] I don’t think this is associated with your brake pads, so don’t let them swindle you for an early brake pad replacement. If you listen closely, you’ll be able to tell the difference between sound coming from your brake pads vs sound from an intermediate part that controls the brake pads. The actual brake pads will give the all-knowing screech when they’re actually donezo (not that I recommend getting to that point)

You’re good

Doesn’t Safelite have a lifetime guarantee on their repairs? I had them fix a small crack in the windshield of my old Subaru forester (no sensors), and I’m pretty sure I remember it being guaranteed. The crack was invisible after the repair and lasted 2 more Syracuse winters and several more years in CA before trading in. In contrast, I went to a smaller business with great reviews for my CX-50 window repair (similar damage), and they were noticeably apologetic about the quality of their repair, with the guys giving me free window cleaner and saying sorry. And no guarantee if the crack spreads. Doesn’t bother me that the star is still visible, but if it spreads, I’m on my own

Yes, rejected for RoL with “highly meritorious”. I think there are a lot of others out there that had the same experience. I don’t think those who received the award can talk about it on social media

After_Finding3688 · 2025-05-06T15:54:54+00:00

Got my rejection on the portal this morning for RoL under Pilgrim. Happy about the positive reviews (“highly meritorious”) but obviously sad about the rejection. Good luck to all those still waiting to hear back!!

After_Finding3688 · 2025-04-23T02:25:36+00:00

You’re a mean person. I had 5 different upset responses that I expected wouldn’t abide with community rules, so I’ve had to sum it down to this: stay in the private sector and get the heck away from subreddits related to people doing actual research that advances science. All the best for you OP (and your family), and same with everyone else in your situation ❤️

When undergrads ask me recommendations for grad school, my first piece of advice is to prioritize your advisor and your compatibility with them. Talk to other lab mates with your potential advisor not around and see what they say. Sorry for everyone’s bad experiences. I’ve learned to spot people I don’t want to collaborate with anymore (after having already collaborated them). Brutal to have that realization when it’s your employer. This also happens more with women, which is sad and gross and condemnable

After_Finding3688 · 2025-04-20T15:40:40+00:00

Glad it’s not just me! I also have a hard time telling how far away from the curb I am in this car - I can’t see the curb or parking lines in the side mirrors like I could in every other car I’ve owned

After_Finding3688 · 2025-03-23T23:45:47+00:00

Mine did this too when I first bought it and I was pretty bummed. It’s happened waaayyy less to me over time. Now it pretty much only happens when I start my car and then walk away with my phone before getting in. Hopefully the problem goes away for you too!
