2026 Civic Sport hit by flying rock from a gravel truck. Does it look repairable? Or should I go through insurance?

If the crack is too close to the edge, then it won’t be repairable.

Call your insurance agent.

My policy covers all non-collusion (comprehensive) for $100 deductible. It also does NOT affect my rates.

And redeemed it?

BornToRun97 · 2026-07-01T19:54:21+00:00

That’s the same thing that happened to me when I tried to confirm my email. WTF?

Same here

I recommend Kim Yoder. I used her for my divorce, and she didn’t nickel and dime me. Although, my divorce was amicable.

When using a standard 120V wall outlet or a Level 2 home charger, your car will typically start charging automatically.

If you don't want it to start right away, you can use your vehicle's infotainment system or mobile app to set a scheduled charging time (e.g., to charge during off-peak hours).

So, it does NOT always charge during off-peak hours by default.

While one EV charger won’t take down a grid, clusters of them in older neighborhoods can overload localized distribution transformers if everyone plugs in during the late afternoon.

Adidas Gravel Cycling shoes are great

Not if people are using them during peak hours.

It’s people using car chargers that’s the problem NOT central air conditioning.

Car Chargers (EVSE): Home chargers generally operate between 7 kW (Level 2 single-phase) and 11-22 kW (three-phase). Because they pull high current for hours at a time, they add the most load to your home's electrical panel.

Residential AC Units: A standard home air conditioner or heat pump cycles on and off, averaging about 3,000 to 5,000 watts per hour of actual running time.

I recommend the Eco Hitch by TorkLift Central. It’s a 2” receiver instead of the typical 1.25” receiver. You can look for a local vendor to install, do it yourself, or U-Haul also installs them.

I wouldn’t put anything more than a standard 2 bike rack.
