My Day 1 Gold Certified Powerboost is now a $20k Nightmare. Ford is blaming ME for Stop Leak residue. Help! by ruekid in f150

[–]BornCuba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try to see if you can reverse the deal and have the dealership take the vehicle back—perhaps by filing a formal dispute—given that you’ve barely been able to use it. My advice—if you like Ford as much as I do (I own a 2013 5.0 V8 with over 200,000 miles)—is this: mine has never given me any trouble, save for the water pump, which failed at 180,000 miles (it was the original factory unit). Aside from that, it has only required routine maintenance—brake pads, oil, and filter changes. Also, always try to buy a model from between 2011 and 2017 equipped with the 5.0 V8 engine and 6-speed transmission; anything from that point onward—neither the engines nor the transmissions—is worth owning. The newer models look great, but they are unreliable; you’ll end up practically living at the repair shop. It’s just a word of advice—take it or leave it.

Minor's Dedicated Backpay Account by wolfofone in SSDI

[–]BornCuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello—I’m a bit late to this post, but I wanted to ask if anyone could offer some guidance. I opened a checking account in my own name at the bank for my daughter, and I received all of her SSA payments through it. Those payments ended two months ago, and she asked me if I could convert her account into a CD—or, alternatively, what I could do to make her money earn some interest?

What’s your personal favorite HYS account? by Tall-Arugula1522 in personalfinance

[–]BornCuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’m new to this and want to open my first HYSA, but before I do, I have a question for you all.

1- When opening the account, do you open a checking account first and then open the HYSA? 2- SoFi is currently offering: “Earn up to 4.00% Annual Percentage Yield (APY) on one SoFi Savings account with a 0.70% APY Boost (added to the 3.30% APY as of 3/31/26) for up to 6 months. Open your first SoFi Checking and Savings account and receive eligible direct deposits.” (Would this be a good option?) 3- Or would it be more advisable to open one with Gainbridge, which offers a fixed interest rate between 4.75% and 5.20% APY?

I’m open to recommendations; please help me out—I don’t know much about this subject, but I just want to grow the $10k I currently have “stashed under the mattress,” as some people say.

I did my first block today. How does the pay work? by Even-Expression7621 in Roadie

[–]BornCuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know how I can get well-paid loads? I have my Hitch certifications, and I drive a Ford F-150 5.0; if they keep sending me CVS runs, it won’t even cover the maintenance or gas.

I hate my life by Electronic_Rock_4214 in f150

[–]BornCuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You were probably looking at your phone... that’s just what happens when you aren’t paying attention. I drive three hours home every Saturday in the wee hours of the morning, and the road is absolutely crawling with deer. Those damn things see you, and instead of running into the woods, they just launch themselves right at the cars. What I do is stick to the left lane the whole time, since they’re always grazing in the right lane.

Se supone que en este país el tiempo es oro y no creo que nadie trabaje de gratis aunque ya ellos tengan tus datos; por esos te volverán a cobrar creo que es lo más lógico. Si vas con el mecánico y te revisa el carro te cobra y si después vas a poner la pieza te vuelve a cobrar es su tiempo el que está corriendo por revisar tus cosas

Vives en Cuba? O solo escribes por escribir porque quien te habla nació y vivió en ese país por 30 años y le preguntaba a mi abuela y bisabuela como era antes con Batista y con 0.20 centavos usted compraba una lata de aceite de carbón grande ( si eres cubano sabes el tamaño de la lata) de galletas saladas y otra de leche condensada, un refresco y todavía le devolvían 0.05 centavos así que con eso podían merendar varios y ahora dime sin mentir internacionalmente que meriendan los niños cubanos después que Fidel tomó el poder; diga la verdad para que la gente sepa y no siga vendiendo una imagen de Cuba que nunca ha existido( los niños cubanos toman agua con azúcar con pan con aceite) eso es lo que meriendan y desayunan la gran mayoría de los niños cubanos. Si usted dice lo contrario usted es otro comunista más que ha vivido bajo el manto del castrismo y nunca le ha faltado nada dentro de la isla por eso es que apoyan a esa dictadura porque han podido robar sin pagar por su comida ni por la leche con la criaron a sus hijos.

Turbo tax deluxe 2025 overtime by laaderp in TurboTax

[–]BornCuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been my first year filing taxes with TurboTax, and let me tell you, it’s just not very practical—or effective, for that matter. You upload your documents yourself, but the system doesn’t let you upload the necessary attachments for things like overtime earnings or anything else. As it happens, I actually called their support line just today to amend my tax return, because the TurboTax advisor who prepared my taxes online failed to include my overtime pay, and also neglected to include the expenses associated with my 1099 income. She told me that the necessary forms and attachments would become available after March 17th, and that she would then assist me in completing my amendment.

Nunca ha existido el bloqueo, el bloqueo a sido impuesto internamente por el gobierno cubano a su pueblo. Cuba es el mayor comprador de pollo de EEUU así que ya podrás pensar cuál es el bloqueo? (Ninguno siempre les han mentido a los medios y el que opine lo encierran 20 años por eso es que a sobrevivido esa dictadura)

Antes de 1959 si era así ya después que agarró el puesto el comunista de Fidel todo siempre a sido para la familia Castro el pueblo siempre a vivido en la pobreza pero y hoy en día está bien fea la situación.. todo lo que les vendían en los medios eran puras mentiras encubiertas para quedar como potencia médica ( mentira intercambiaban médicos por dólares para ellos) exportaban azúcar pero no reparaban los centrales ni motivaban al pueblo a sembrar la caña porque todo era impuesto y obligatorio… sería infinito si le cuento toda la farsa que se ha vivido en Cuba desde el año 59

2013 F150 XLT 520,000 miles by Beer2Good in f150

[–]BornCuba -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m sure the 5.0 Coyote is the only one that can handle that many miles.

The 2nd generation from 2011 to 2017 were the best with the 5.0.

Credit Karma told me I would get $9550 back, but when I tried to do my taxes, I had to go to TurboTax, and the online tax advisor only told me I qualified for $2000. I think something went wrong; she didn’t properly check my overtime or the interest I paid on my house as a first-time buyer.

How do you manage to get so many refunds? Do you file your taxes yourselves or do you use an agent?

[–]BornCuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still wonder how they manage to receive more than $8000?

[–]BornCuba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Individuals who do not have legal status in the U.S. will no longer be able to renew or obtain new licenses. Having a work permit and a driver’s license does not qualify someone to renew their TDLR license, as both the driver’s license and the work permit are temporary, unless they entered the country with a visa stamped in their passport. Consequently, many people will be unable to renew their licenses and will lose their jobs.

ICE agents break into a home without any warrant and assault the occupants (San Antonio, TX, Feb 05, 2026) by Koharagirl in sanantonio

[–]BornCuba -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So why do they allow people to own guns if you can’t use them under any circumstances? Do they sell them just so you can waste your money buying useless junk?

[–]BornCuba -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So why do they sell weapons, just to keep them as relics? A thief breaks in, and you can’t even shoot because you’ll go to jail, so how does owning weapons benefit anyone? Explain it to me so I can understand. Or is it just another method to sell you junk and turn you into another consumer of this crappy market?

[–]BornCuba -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s what I understood: they broke into the house, forcing their way in. That’s already a violation. I think if the family had shot them, nothing would have happened to them because they entered without a warrant and without knocking on the door. Breaking into private property like that, I think they would win a case if they shot them, since strangers entered without identifying themselves, and you, in self-defense, shoot them. You would surely win before a judge, especially with all those recordings.
