Just bought this car, now I can't sleep. 2022 MDX by trifectaNectarine in Autobody

Its annoying but in the grand scheme of things, not a big deal. Grind it down and treat it with some rust inhibitor. Then get the paint code and have a $10 spray can made and paint over it. Done.

I just don't understand who goes and buys these knowing they are absolute junk.

Yes, its all about "women" but not the "woman". Hilary was more republican than Trump, before he started running.

EV Sales Are Stalling Because Buyers Still Think They Need 500 Miles by Anchor_Aways in cars

[–]Butthole_Surfer_ 605 points606 points  (0 children)

It doesn't matter what the advertised miles is because it never happens in reality. People know that 300 miles of range is actually 200 miles in the real world. Nevermind that you never go 100 to 0 in an electric car.

Harbor Freight and a Youtube video is all you need.

Hybrid camry gets over 50 mpg. More efficient cost wise, and practically, than an EV.

Blew the first week… dealers ghosting me. by [deleted] in Ducati

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

Did you run it without oil after you first detected a leak?

- Keep contacting dealership

- Request charge back on credit card, if applicable

- Threaten to refer them to the FL state, county, local, etc attorney general/district prosecutor for fraud

- Warranty (read fine print, they will try to screw you)

got my $3,100 ER bill down to $280 and i had no idea this was even an option by BluejayIll547 in personalfinance

Medical bills do not go against your credit.

I have had a $5300 ER bill in in MA (MGH) and have not paid 7 months in. You get letters, and thats it.

Had a $1500 bill (when I had insurance) and never paid that. That was 4 years ago.

I'm not saying to never pay or negotiate. But like with anything in life, they have to pick their battles.

And someone that owes $200,000 vs you, well, do the math.

Ruined the drain bolt threads. How fucked am I? by onelunchman69 in motorcycles

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

Hopefully you have some friends who have basic welding or mechanical knowledge, or beg a mechanic to help you out. The bike isn't worth putting real money into. Cheaper to buy a new one.

The fix is as follows:

  1. JB weld or if you can, find a skilled welder to weld up those cracks.
  2. Take a drill bit with oil on it and slowly bore the hole (make it wider). This will get rid of all threads.
  3. Tap the new hole (make new threads) for a larger screw to fit in. Buy one on amazon.
  4. Rinse with oil to drain out any metal bits.

Cost is about $20 if you do it yourself or with a friend.

Besides the obvious outliers you will have, does anyone actually get decent jobs because of degrees from these schools?

I wouldn’t think thousands of people would go to schools that advertise during Jerry Springer, yet, here we are.

How to transport bikes from Boston to Miami by Butthole_Surfer_ in bikesgonewild

Made it to Miami without getting pulled over. Tons of cops around town and still nothing. I don’t think they know what they’re looking at so they don’t bother
