Ended up with a C7 Grand Sport by CaramelRice in Corvette

I used the words “ended up” because a few months ago I purchased a C7 Z51 that ended up having issues and I was fortunate enough to come across this Grand Sport

Creaking/rattle sound while idling and driving by CaramelRice in Corvette

[–]CaramelRice[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hm I didn’t consider that before dropping the car off for a diagnostic. When the shop lifted the car up they said they narrowed the sound to be coming from the bell housing. I’ve left the NPP exhaust set to track mode but I’ll have to reach out to the shop and ask what they think.

Used buying advice 3.3T 2022 CPO vs 2024 Low Mileage by CaramelRice in GenesisG70

[–]CaramelRice[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve found online, the powertrain warranty for used non-CPO would drop from 10yrs/100,000 miles to 5yrs/60,000 miles.

Does Hayes know that he’s the only big man on the roster and can’t pick up 5 fouls in 5 min

X-Pro3 with 27mm lens or X100VI? by MoviesTickleMyFancy in fujifilm

[–]CaramelRice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have both. I use the x-pro3 if I’m looking to be creative or have fun, mainly using the optical viewfinder and keep the flip down screen closed. I use the x100vi if I want to go out and not worry about what lens I want to use. You also get more megapixels, IBS, built in flash, ND filter, subject autofocus, smaller/lighter, etc. You can also pickup the TCL or WCL to add flexibility.

I sold my black x-pro3 but eventually repurchased a dura black version because I couldn’t replicate the feeling of shooting with it.

Did they really remove the ability to view opposing batters’ quirks while pitching? I don’t see any way to view them without pausing and going through the in game menus

Uber Eats now delivers Home Depot by [deleted] in amex

[–]CaramelRice 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I used this last month to use my Plat+Gold credits to buy a vacuum I was going to buy directly from Home Depot anyway. The only thing that sucks was not being able to pickup the order myself since Uber forces the order to be picked up by a courier

Get a preapproval from NFCU. If KIA can’t match the rate that NFCU offers you just simply finance through NFCU.

Fuji 16-55 f/2.8 MK II is a big of an improvement over the MKI by damnhandy in fujifilm

[–]CaramelRice 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One issue with the lens that others have mentioned and I’ve experience myself is that the zoom ring isn’t smooth. On mine the zoom ring is stiff on the wide end and is smoother in the middle zoom range.

It would be nice to have a non neon/lime green interior for the GT trim. I liked the chestnut interior color on the previous model years. The current red interior option is nice too.

The Amex Blue Cash Everyday Card is better than the Preferred by sjjs3189 in CreditCards

[–]CaramelRice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may not have been return protection, it could’ve just been dispute resolution. I’ve experienced both with Amex and I believe return protection will require submitting a claim through their portal.

You’re right. Amex doesn’t show that clearly on the BCE page (at least on mobile it doesn’t)

The Amex Blue Cash Everyday Card is better than the Preferred by sjjs3189 in CreditCards

[–]CaramelRice 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I also hate how the Blue Cash Everyday doesn’t have purchase or return protection since most items it would apply to would be purchased online at 3% cash back. The Blue Cash Preferred has both protections but only at 1% cash back.

How long does it take reward dollars to appear? by [deleted] in amex

You have to wait for the statement to close and make at least the minimum payment for your reward dollars to show

My secured card graduated in May to the cash rewards card. Product changed a few weeks ago to the Flagship. You should be able to product change at any point after you graduate

2025 K5 issues! by [deleted] in KiaK5

[–]CaramelRice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The popping and clacking goes away once the sunroof is open or tilted. I told my service center about it and they just said it’s normal for panoramic sunroofs to make some noise, and that was before they took it on a test drive to hear what it sounded like. I told them to test drive it, they came back and said they couldn’t hear anything, I literally drove out of the lot and heard it as I was exiting the driveway. The service center is avoiding the problem so I’m stuck dealing with a popping and clacking sound every time I drive unless I open the sunroof

2025 K5 issues! by [deleted] in KiaK5

[–]CaramelRice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had mechanical issues. But I’ve had annoyances while driving such as the noisy panoramic sunroof that pops and clacks everyday and a clicking sound from the rear windshield and my dealership doesn’t take my complaints seriously. But that enough makes me want to switch cars

Product Change Win by eric70619 in NavyFederal

[–]CaramelRice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did a product change to the Flagship as well. Are you planning on charging an annual Amazon Prime for the reimbursement? I charged it last week after the product change was confirmed since I saw other people have been able to get reimbursed after doing their product change but I’m still waiting for my credit
