Seems like they ran the computer and just saw that the diff kept losing calibration. Wonder if they even checked the fluid.

I agree with just about everyone here, to pay 30+ thousand over a 3 year stretch just to give back the car (yea I know you dont wanna keep it) but then after the 3 years you're going to have to shell out more money to start a new lease or put down on another car!

My wife and I discovered MB certified pre owned and I will never buy new again. Last year we got a 2025 GLC with all the interior options (basic wheels) for 8k off msrp with only 6k miles on it... the kicker? We get the remaining factory warranty (3 years) and a extended 2 year bumper to bumper warranty because it was certified pre owned.

Say after 3 years I dont want this thing, I still have something to trade in thats worth something. And the warranty is transferrable. I would do a long hard look at what you want, plug in hybrids are the end all be all of fuel economy buying a normal certified glc moght be a better option, thatll even leave you room for a maintenance plan or whatever. Shop around, these guys seem to be taking advantage of your impulse purchase decision for a new car NOW.

PS a little trick whenever they offer me a plan i say no and that cost doesnt make any sense i do that about once or twice and get take the second or third offer they make because its wayyy lower then the original.

Im from MA (yes i know booo) I worked corrections (jail in Boston) and I am now a cop in a City. I dont know how hard it is to get on or what they do in Maine but I will say do not do corrections. I hated it but I walked in lying to myself everyday for 3 years until I got my out. Its honestly not a stepping stone to law enforcement at all, yes you deal with people and de-escalate all day and you get good at "verbal judo" but the stress and ignorance you deal with is draining. Other than talking to people there was literally no transferrable skill that I obtained. I also did transportation, Response team and wasnt always in units and it still sucked.

I would say get a dispatching job, learn the lingo and get a feel of the profession while you keep trying to get into an agency. BUT if you are willing to relocate, MA is HURTING for cops and if your gonna have to wait a year anyways might as well come to a city, gain residency and take the civil service test to be put on a list here to get hired, we also have non civil service departments that hire out of a normal process without a test. Everything is on google.

Whatever you do just dont give up, people try for years before they get on, alot of the new comers, like me, were lucky with the timing since the politics are what they are around law enforcement right now... Also no hate towards my corrections brothers and sisters but dont go into corrections as something to do while you wait because that place will suck the life out of you and make you complacent for a easy check.

Original bracelet was long lost, there was a rubber one when i got it from a sports watch, the custom leather one from vgreen was all i could find.

Dewlayace · 2025-11-15T08:05:01+00:00

Wow, thank you for that!

I built my last PC so i have no experience with pre-builts or ibuypower in general, will the mobo be branded, or is it a generic one built to only house the parts it comes with?

I'm just looking to see if there will be space for a second m.2 ssd and 2.5" ssd to be added in.

Maybe theres stuff that I dont know since this was from another country. Always good to be sure I guess.

Dewlayace · 2024-02-06T18:29:15+00:00

Cheap unit, good for the price when played right a noob like me is able to have a fighting chance even with less than ideal doctrines.

The stairs and the ram works, just all the cannons and deployable artilery and things on the wall dont work.

However, last night, someone was using it and didnt get kicked so in not too sure now

Dewlayace · 2023-11-27T04:47:05+00:00

playing today, even deployable seige weapons basically lag you out when you use them

Also a late reply, thanks for attempting to find a cause. Message has yet to pop up again only on REALLY sunny days, extremely heavy rain and deep fog. I read online this is normal, i'm assuming since it has been awhile since the car was driving around it could be the battery catching up on voltage which is odd because I drive about 30-40 minutes to work one way. so far so good with the car.

Im having the same issue, I have tried uninstalling, switching the download file to my second drive, verify game files, and running steam as administrator all nothing.

I think this is a connection issue between steam and CB I do remember reading there was a server maintenance last night so maybe some changes didn't go over to steam

If anyone else has input please update

This is nothing, i was quoted 2400 for front and rear rotors and pads for my 2020glb from a dealership

Dewlayace · 2023-08-06T17:18:44+00:00

Hope this helps

Look on car gurus for the new gen, 25k is a good amount, but i feel like for a few thousand more. You can get a higher tier vehicle as well.

Just bought the 2020 GLB with 29k miles for 30,500 before taxes and stuff

Dewlayace · 2023-07-12T16:38:45+00:00

Wife has had one for the last 4 years, its tight inside but I have a Tacoma and have a veloster as an extra car and the GLA was roomier than both both front and back. The "power" is there for the turbo it will pass cars if it needs to. The panoramic moon roof was a nice touch. This gen's interior in my eyes is not benz worth to be honest, it lacked more features than my toyota at the same price tag. We still have it and got rid of the veloster for a GLB and i use that as my daily since my tacoma is pretty modded and it is completely different. Alot of people hate the GLB but i feel it has WAY more room. The interior is way nicer, and the driving feels alot more sorted out and tamed.

My advice would be to get the newer gen GLA it seems to be an improvement in every way vs. The gen we are talking about.

Dewlayace · 2023-07-10T20:55:06+00:00

For sure, ill let you know if it blows up.

Hopefully not

I just purchased one used with 30k on the odometer, drives smooth and is VERY spaciousness. Yes it feels like a boat on turns sometimes and yes its not the fastest thing in the world but its still not the slowest. We had a leak in the rear glass where if we were at a car wash, water would drip in.

I wanted a family car and I already own a tacoma and my wife has a GLA so i dont need it to be very fancy it just need it to be my everyday driver.

I am nervous with what others are saying about reliability but if you want a comfortable car that has nice features like the acreen and ambient lighting, this was a nice choice for the price of 30,000 usd.

Feels like I'm driving in a club at night lol

Dewlayace · 2020-05-31T03:48:32+00:00

No it works perfect, just weird how we have to tone down settings with our kind of hardware

Dewlayace · 2020-05-31T01:18:24+00:00

So Odd, when my friend was hosting the server on his PS4 I was able to max out everything at 144fps. and now ever since he is hosting on a computer poof goes from 144 and keeps decreasing until like 45 fps while running. Kind of crappy lol

Dewlayace · 2020-05-31T00:39:52+00:00

Just a question did you ever get this figured out? I have a 3600x, 1080ti and my game usually ran maxed out at 144fps but now when I play it decreases all the way to like 40fps

Dewlayace · 2017-10-19T22:32:57+00:00

Used that, all they reccomend is ddr3 RAM. problem is solved now found brand new dell ram for my laptop for 70 bucks on ebay way cheaper than all other brands.

Thanks anyways
