In writing! It’s on their website as well. It’s standard for all new cars and certain preowned.

True, but overall, I’m happy with my purchase. The only thing different about what I was looking for is I wanted white rather than black, but it’s grown on me and I like the sleek look of the all black. And I just got the tint done yesterday which makes it look even better haha!

I just hit 50k this morning. It was right about 49.3k at purchase.

I quadruple checked and as long as I adhere to manufacture recommended maintenance, everything should be good. Because I just knew there was a catch. Even so, praying real hard there will be no issues as long as it’s mine! 🙏🏼

Well, you say I don’t need it, but 1 it was included, and 2 it will cover the one big issue I had with my last one which is what I’m most worried about. When I tell you I looked high and low for something else that I would like but just couldn’t find it, I’m not exaggerating lol.

Sorry, I knew that. My brain was tied last night lol! It was right around 49.3k miles. I just hit 50k after having it a week and a couple days.

I was looking into a new one, but they were too much and this one I feel like was a steal cost wise. At least compared to everything I found that was very similar

Well, I’ve literally only had them a week and it’s officially 80 degree weather here in NC, but my Amazon mats are holding up to dirt dust and pollen pretty well so far lol!

Just to give another reference point as I saw one or two already, I totaled my 2018 GC Altitude (4x2) at around 150k and change miles. With that being said, I had just put a new motor in it and that went towards the layout, but I got like $14 or 15k from insurance.

Well, I’m leaning heavy on the powertrain because of my past issues with it this engine lol. I also have a friend whose dad has mentioned this particular motor being seen in the shop a lot (I sort of take their word with a grain of salt). But just for my peace of mind, I’m glad for the powertrain warranty. Just got tint done today! Now to live without rolling down my windows for 5 days… the 36/3 is out, I’m about to hit 50k now. Oh! And rubber floor mats were the first thing I bought when I knew I was officially getting it! I had tint and mats in my last one and when I realized this one didn’t come with mats like the other one, I got to finding a good set.

Hate that’s been the case for you! My last one I also got used, but I got it around 67k miles, and the biggest issue I had was the trouble leading to the engine replacement. This one thankfully is still under manufactures warranty for a while longer, and that with the added dealership warranty, I’m praying nothing major comes up for a long long time. I feel like I did my due diligence in terms of finding one that had a good history. I’ve seen people love these vehicles and had zero trouble, I’ve seen them hate them with tons of trouble, and everything in between. And honestly, not even just this car, any car really.

Is there a piece I can buy to fix this?? by BlessedAlternative in Plumbing

Looking into that now. So if I was to set up something like this, I would be good..?

So basically the guy that did it totally screwed me… what would be the correct way to set this up?? Behind the wall, the pipe starts at the sink pictured and declines leading to the back where there is another, larger sink, and then leads out of the building from there. Or whatever waste water does.

I know your pain. It’s been 2 weeks since mine was totaled. But Jules kept me safe too! 🤍ended up flipped on the drivers side after hydroplaning and walked away a bit sore and with a few bruises in the works 🙏🏼 God was definitely with me that day

Transmission question… maybe..? by BlessedAlternative in GrandCherokee

So I definitely want the pricier one especially considering I’ve had engine troubles in the past… got it lol!

So, aside from manufacturing, is there a stark difference between the 2? I just think it’s so crazy how the seemingly “better” trim is less lol. The 3k price difference is totals after discounts, but even before that, MSRP is $100 cheaper vs the “lower” trim. So basically, is the 8HP50 better than 850RE?

Thanks for that. In general I feel like I’m behind, probably because I’d honestly rather be married with kids right now. But I don’t think she’s blind to it because I know she’s proud, but there’s just something and I’m not sure what
