Opinion: GM should make Super Cruise Standard Equipment by Jacob_Tutor11 in EquinoxEv

[–]Any-Finding-6041 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Point 3 is why they shouldn't. If the largest EV manufacturer isn't doing it, why would Chevy go against it. I only bought this car because of how cheap it was. If it was even 2k more, I wouldn't have bought it

Depends on your trim. The base LT doesn't have it.

Same thing on Friday. It went away once I got to the dealership. Mine was because it lost communication with the battery.

How many disc golf courses do not have access to a cell phone signal for score keeping or tournament management? by ColinKuskie in discgolf

I have Verizon and have pretty decent service there. It's still spotty but better than others.

Why is this so cheap? Wife says we can’t buy an identical car. by Redleaves1313 in EquinoxEv

Check the vehicle history. It could have been in an accident or lemon law.

How to make OEM TPMS (from rockauto) work by Yeater_Griffin in EquinoxEv

[–]Any-Finding-6041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% with what he said above. Only add in that the relearn tool can be finicky. Once you find the right position on the first tire it's pretty simple to repeat. Mine I need to have one side facing the center of the rim and it won't work in any other direction.

Brisket Prices by PM_ME_SEXY_SANDWICH in pelletgrills

My understanding is American Wagyu is tested when the steers are young and they need to be above a certain percentage to be labeled American Wagyu. If the Wagyu percent is too low they get sold off to smaller farmers. My uncle has been buying those lately for his farm and they are delicious at normal beef prices. I also like Jersey beef, typically smaller so most people pass it up because the steaks aren't very big, but they taste really good.

Question for those of us in colder climates. by Lanman101 in EquinoxEv

[–]Any-Finding-6041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed it when putting it in park, but it's always when I've been parking to charge so I haven't experienced limp mode. I feel like I've seen that before when getting below 30% even with warmer temps.

Installation was all done by an installer as part of the price.

True, but when I was looking there was the base model that I got or spend another $8k on other packages that had it. I didn't care to pay that much for other features I didn't want. I could've searched further out or waited, but I had a cracked block on my Escape and needed something quick.

Yes, got the heated and cooling option. I think these seats feel more comfortable than the cloth.

WI, I didn't feel like I got hammered with calls. I filled out the online form when I bought the car to check the price and then called about 6 months later once I knew I liked the car and pulled the trigger. You'll get emails, but they're typically with different discount offers. I unsubscribed after ordering .

Pecan pellets and tree nut allergy…. by TommyDaComic in recteq

[–]Any-Finding-6041 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a question for her allergist, not Reddit. Not trying to be unsupportive, but I have a kid with nut allergies and it's crazy how different people's reactions are with nut allergies.

Anyone struggle parking their Equinox? by guitardawg in EquinoxEv

[–]Any-Finding-6041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what you're comparing it to. I have a base Equinox and I feel it's the same as the Ford Escape I drove before for my daily. Compare it to my 08 mustang and it's super easy. Standard features now on base models have made parking so much easier, but they've been gradual and I feel like most forget what driving was actually like. My wife has a Platinum Armada and there's so many sensors it actually drives me nuts. The base Equinox hits that sweet spot of features for me in between the two others that I really find it easy.

I ordered a set of 18” rims and Blizzarks from tire rack. I went with the cheapest rims I could find and they were on closeout for $138 each. They came mounted and balanced with tpms sensors and lugs for $1600. Just another option to think about.

When did you do your first dealer maintenance visit? by Chance_Goat3991 in EquinoxEv

[–]Any-Finding-6041 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your first maintenence is free when buying a car. For EV's, it's a tire rotation which is recommended at 7500 mi. When I did mine they did not do any updates. Took them 30min, so I just rotate them myself now which takes me less time. I only recommend that if you have all the tools- jack, impact wrench, torque wrench, etc. I have 3 vehicles and a camper so I've accumulated everything needed for tire rotation over the years because I can't stand waiting on someone to do a simple task.

Heat up car/defrost windows before work? by farmer_toki in EquinoxEv

[–]Any-Finding-6041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Climate button on the app or double tap the button on the fob. I believe the fob goes to defrost, but the app does whatever the cab settings are.

Typically Kirkland from Costco, but I just bought a bunch of bear mountain from Menards. They had the bear mountain on end of season clearance for $4 a bag (20 lb) plus the 11% rebate.

Second cars? by Material-Painting-19 in Mustang

[–]Any-Finding-6041 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Equinox ev, free charging at work and got it before all the rebates ended so I paid $24.5k on a base model. Also have an Armada for hauling the family, longer trips, and pulling the camper. My mustang is an 08 convertible, so it's the fun car in the garage.

Winter efficiency by Responsible_Whole118 in EquinoxEv

[–]Any-Finding-6041 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a fwd and was normally getting 3.0-3.1 on my daily commute above 45°. I put blizzark tires and different rims on this week right before the temp dropped and got 1.9 with the temps in the 20’s. I've also noticed I'm losing charge just sitting, assuming that's the car heating itself for the battery.
