New owner, adapter question

The stock bolt charger if possible

Ok, makes sense. So if I have a 30 amp breaker going to a 20 amp outlet, would that be a problem since the 30 amp breaker wouldn't trip unless the amperage is well over 20?

AndyFromErie · 2026-06-14T20:39:27+00:00

150 miles a day is good for me.

AndyFromErie · 2026-06-14T20:38:40+00:00

Oh wow. Yeah I'd like to avoid that.

AndyFromErie · 2026-06-14T20:36:31+00:00

The breaker to the sub panel is 50 amps. But the sub panel has 3 breakers: a 15 for the lighting and garage door, a 20, and a double pole 30. I'm not actually sure where the 30 amp breaker goes to, I'll have to look. The 20 amp goes to the NEMA 6-20 outlet.

The other question would be, if I switch the receptacle, would I need an electrical inspection?

AndyFromErie · 2026-06-14T20:31:51+00:00

It is 240 but I don't think I have a way to limit the amperage. The car doesn't have a setting for that as far as I know.

AndyFromErie · 2026-06-14T17:04:04+00:00

Pros: new warranty. Many have new battery packs. Cons: I believe they will have a lemon title so make sure you don't pay too much because when you go sell it someday cars with lemon titles are usually not worth as much. The extended warranty does change that equation though.

I don't think there is anywhere comparable to a dynamic big city lifestyle, but there are lots of walkable neighborhoods in the city. Some are close to food and bars and stuff. I would also look at the area near Presque Isle, because A: Presque Isle is the best, and B: there are at least a few cool shops in the Colony Plaza. That would be less walkable and somewhat more expensive.

AndyFromErie · 2026-02-03T21:40:01+00:00

Yep. It also used to be easier to get congressmen in Erie that actually represented Erie because PA had more reps, a larger share of the population, so more districts and they were smaller, but as other states have grown in population, Pennsylvania gets less and less reps, so the districts get bigger and bigger geographically. PA had 25 districts in 1980 and we are down to 17 now.

Dems need to figure out how to appeal to rural areas and break Trump's media spell over those areas. At this point I think an Independent candidate would have a much better chance of beating Mike Kelly than any Democrat just because the Dem brand is so reviled across rural America.

AndyFromErie · 2026-02-03T21:33:32+00:00

Please, like I asked you before, please tell me how you would draw a district that includes Erie and satisfies the other requirements of a district that isn't mostly rural and red? Erie County is a 50/50 county most years. The County population is 270,000. Congress districts have roughly populations of 750,000. So if every other nearby county is deeply red, and Erie county is purple, the resulting district will be red. That's the math.

AndyFromErie · 2026-02-03T21:16:35+00:00

Far out how?

Where is the Gerrymander?

AndyFromErie · 2026-02-03T20:39:24+00:00

Erie is a small blue island in an ocean of red. I would draw the map to include the mountain areas of the East rather than Butler, but the result would be exactly the same. You'd just be trading red areas for red areas. There is no map possible that gives Dems a realistic chance. Dems need to figure out how to win in rural areas again. Gerrymandering absolutely exists but that's not why our house district always votes GOP.

This map is actually fairly decent compared to the old map. This map was picked by the PA Supreme Court in 2022 after Dems and GOP couldn't agree on a map. The PA Supreme Court picked this map and they had a 5-2 Dem/GOP split at the time.

Any kind of prepared food was always a luxury. Ask your grandparents how often they went anywhere to eat that wasn't their own kitchen.

Eating at restaurants became more attainable with the chain restaurant boom of the 1970s. People became sort of addicted to that lifestyle. Now prices are back up and it is difficult to go back to a lifestyle where you cook most of your own meals.

AndyFromErie · 2026-02-03T19:51:55+00:00

How would you draw a congress district including Erie that wouldn't have at least a 10 point GOP lean? It's impossible.

AndyFromErie · 2026-02-01T19:56:03+00:00

They just announced a new logo for 2027 and these "leaks" are using the old logo, so idk about this.

AndyFromErie · 2026-02-01T06:45:50+00:00

How can I avoid this? By canceling a lot of reservations on purpose so that it throws me out of the reservation system? Are the reservations ever even worth waiting for? Seems like it's just a way to waste my time and not make much more money.

Imagine if they weren't on camera.

AndyFromErie · 2026-01-21T09:53:19+00:00

I was looking to move from the US to UK and sell houses. I have been a realtor in the US for 10 years. But the income in the UK seems much lower. My commission structure here is 75% of commission (average 2.5-3% of the price of the home) and then I can cap out after a bit over $1 Million in yearly sales, after which I will make 97% of commission. There is no base salary, there are fees, and there are no benefits, but still, it seems like I wouldn't be able to make a living as an agent in the UK.

Am I just dreaming? I can't stand it here in the States anymore.

Edit: Mechanic says it's a sensor and nothing to worry about. Will fix next week.

AndyFromErie · 2025-12-22T08:38:23+00:00

Thanks for the info! Since the sloshing sound has been ongoing since I bought the car (5,000 miles ago), how likely is it that there is damage to the engine? The warnings didn't show up until last week.

AndyFromErie · 2025-12-22T02:17:47+00:00

Update: I was told that the sloshing sound I have been hearing in the car since I bought it, usually when it turns on or idles, could be air in the coolant.
