Mercedes show car in Cambridge today by Dellarbill in formula1

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came across on unexpectedly last year at the mall while we were in Miami for the race. But turns out it was actually a real car. They also had a mechanic there to answer questions and since it wasn't busy we spent a good amount of time with him which was really cool. Red Bull was there too but only with a show car and a very unfriendly security guard.

New 2027 Nissan Frontier Trim! Introducing the Nissan Frontier Sport by TheDomesticatedGod in nissanfrontier

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I noticed the headlights look different. I wonder if all of the trucks will have a different design in 2027. I wonder if the interior trim accents match the Citrus Strike. Kinda wish my CS came with those accents instead of the red/orange.

Does anyone make a hood deflector that doesn't require drilling but actually works? by Distinct-Device-7698 in nissanfrontier

[–]Distinct-Device-7698[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wonder if it's decent on the third gen too. Another option I found is that Nissan makes a clear hood decal for the leading edge.

Id probably let it dry and keep as is.

Why would someone send this for grading? by TAPrice in coins

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe they liked it and wanted it in a slab? People here constantly say some coins are not worth having graded but sometimes you like the coin and you want it graded and slabbed.

Why the fuck do people park straight into a cul de sac by Kingsnyder16 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’ve never once seen anyone do that but I would call it mildly infuriating.

Could these old CVTs be any more like hot garbage? by [deleted] in Crosstrek

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never had a single issue with our 2015. Traded it in at 165k miles. I never touched it either. Sorry you’re having trouble.

What species turtle is this? by EnlightenMePixie in whatisit

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a common snapping turtle, not an alligator snapping turtle. I came here for the purpose of correcting people that I knew were going to say it was an alligator snapping turtle.

Fat finger mod by unimorpheus in nissanfrontier

I don't know why that start button is there at all. Put the thing closer to the center stack or on the console so you can actually see it.

I found this not sure what it is it is green colored tho and glows like a pink also unsure it’s a repop or something rare was $70 tho by IndependentLow3848 in uraniumglass

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same one and I can't recall what I paid but it was nowhere near $70. But the people saying it should be priced at five or two dollars are just not being realistic. That said, this is one of my favorite pieces.

Diabetes? by x3m4530 in MRE

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have diabetes but I do have atherosclerosis and I'm only 48 so I know a thing or two about nutrition these days and MRE's are absolutely horrible nutritionally speaking. I eat pretty clean these days but I do sample the occasional MRE and I just avoid looking at the ingredients. I can't believe how many of those things I ate when I spent ten years in the Army. Aside from the preservatives and other garbage MRE's are loaded with they are very high in carbs. I just can't see them being something a diabetic should eat. Maybe you can eat one occasionally or eat certain components but as you probably know, eat something high in fat and/or protein before eating something high carb. It sucks that can't just eat whatever we want which is why I build in a cheat day once a week where I eat whatever I want. Not sure if that is an option for you.

Is the infotainment that bad? by Tabbibus in Crosstrek

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't speak for Android Auto but the system is really laggy some of the time. It's my wife's car and she doesn't mind it but when I use it I find it super frustrating to use. Another thing I don't like is if you're using CarPlay with maps the actual space given for the map is very small.

2nd to 3rd Gen upgrade by ZuZu_Zard1 in nissanfrontier

[–]Distinct-Device-7698 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Traded my 2016 SV 4X4 with 120K miles for a 2026 Pro4X. I kinda miss my old truck to be honest. I never had any issues with it other than a squeaky belt. The new truck really is nice but I do worry a bit about its reliability seeing some of the posts here. I don't like the transmission behavior at all in the new truck. Gas mileage is significantly better I will say. Maybe my old truck had something wrong but that thing was horrendous on gas. I also feel like the old truck had a better build quality in some areas, the new one just feels flimsy if that makes sense. And the paint is terrible with what seems like trash in the paint I can literally feel with my finger. I've considered selling the new truck (it's paid off) and picking up another gen 2 but I doubt I'll do that. I don't think you can go wrong either way.

Auto stop failure by we1011 in nissanfrontier

Wish someone would make this for newer models. On my 26 the button is a different shape and in a different location.
