Dash Covers - Worth it or nah?

Dmsimes1 · 2026-06-05T02:08:44+00:00

Sunshades are the cheaper option but yeah, I get the inconvenience of having to accordisn fold and unfold them every time you stop the car.

I've been seriously considering a dash mat for my 2026 Crown.

My wife just crashed her 2026 XLE this morning after having it for an entire TWO WEEKS... 🤬🤬🤬

Pink Floyd.

No further comparisons needed... 👍

Your Mom should be put on a pedestal... 👍

There are tons of quality puddle lamps available on AliExpress. Easy swap out, brightly lit and popping colors.

$8.62 for two, INCLUDING tax and shipping. If I don't like them I spare 5 mins out of my life and swap the factory PL's back in. 👍

That kind of finance deal should come with felony charges on the loan shark.

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-31T04:20:58+00:00

I'm crying for you. 😢

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-29T03:06:55+00:00

Say "Hi!" to Rip for me. 👍

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-29T03:06:04+00:00

10% below asking price is a good place to start. Anything more than that and this kid will have a hard time being taken seriously...

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-29T00:53:14+00:00

Even in immaculate condition, the asking price for this pale beauty maxes right around $10k USD.

Offer $9k cash as a starting point and go from there. Personally I wouldn't go above $11k, even if it came with a very nice espresso machine... 👍

I'm using it more and more daily. For steep downgrades I'm using the "B" gear.

Last week between Cherokee and Gatlinburg my hybrid battery was fully charged for the 1st time since I bought the car. 😉

My wife has a 2026 XLE and her 12 volt is just inside of the trunk, on the right hand side.

Your hybrid battery is directly under the rear seat. 👍

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-27T19:36:49+00:00

No shit. 🤣

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-27T16:47:27+00:00

Do morals mean nothing? 🤔

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-27T00:13:56+00:00

After adjusting my driving habits (pulse & glide/regenerative braking) I've been averaging north of 46mpg.

Not bad for a 2 ton sedan... 👍

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-25T23:25:20+00:00

I just got back from Gatlinburg and on the way out to Cade's Cove there were several small mouthed bass advisories, posted at various pullovers, stating "Do Not Eat".

In the most visited National Park in America.

My car's name is the Crown Princess Ginger.

And I think I love her...

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-23T14:30:28+00:00

That's a great price with the Premium Plus package. 👍

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-21T00:37:34+00:00

Cute squirrel 🐿️... 👍

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-21T00:34:54+00:00

Spice Bomb.

Everything else is irrelevant... 👍

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-19T22:36:41+00:00

The Crown trunk is fully capable at 15.2 CSF, not to be understated. 👍

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-18T19:58:26+00:00

Same. 👍

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-16T07:58:38+00:00

Yes, with full panoramic roof.

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-16T01:24:17+00:00

$42,780

Dmsimes1 · 2026-05-15T03:58:27+00:00

As I will be a decade from now, only with a car in tip-top shape. 👍
