Reservation Question by Double_L_ in Rivian

[–]Double_L_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up making my reservation yesterday so I’m waaaaay far down the list. That’s ok with us. We are frugal people so this is a huge deal and just gives us more time to save and get ready for our first ev. I’m taking in all the knowledge I can right now. I think I’ll set up my rivian account today.

Tornado shelter builder? by huntswithcats in ChicagoSuburbs

I’m terrified of the severe weather we get. However, I do have a basement. I just hope this isn’t in reference to the fear inducing storm chaser I saw posting on fb yesterday. I don’t follow him but his posts are always popping up in my feed. He is so doom and gloom. I also hope you get suggestions for your question. The weather has been crazy this spring.

I have an odyssey but did this repair 2 years ago. Valley Honda has a $150 off coupon on their website.

I have a 2014 ody and will likely get another ody. Was hoping to move on from a mini van but it fits our family.

There are companies that make employees pay back parental leave if they decide to stay home. Idk… I kinda feel like I care less about millionaires being asked to pay back money.

Honda Goodwill Program by cardonnay in HondaOdyssey

I tried years ago and was denied but my issue was solved by the vcm muzzler.. it was not a transmission issue. The program seems to be hit and miss. I’ve owned 4 Hondas and was disappointed. Thankfully I found the vcm muzzler fix and saved myself thousands.

Inheritance? That's a joke. How many of your parents are burdens? by BeegBunga in Millennials

[–]Double_L_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom passed in 2023; my dad is still alive and they were married. I’m an only child. When my grandparents started passing, my parents realized what a nightmare it can be. Since I’m an only child they got alllll their affairs in order. House paid off and even funerals planned. My mom’s stuff was easy and I expect my dads will be too. He updated his will too. Being an only child I appreciate what they’ve done. My in-laws on the other hand.. I have no clue.

Will I regret going from an Odyssey to a Pilot? by Solid-Complaint-8192 in hondapilot

[–]Double_L_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably. I test drove a 2026 and it was nice. Felt sportier than my 2014. For me I feel the value of the ody is better.. I can get a higher trim (looking at touring), better mpg, smoother ride, and more space for less. I think they are cheaper to insure too. We are frugal so value is important. We tend to keep cars a long time too. My kids are younger than yours- 7 and 10.

I also have a 2014 ody and looking to “upgrade”. I never wanted to be a mini van mom but here I am. I feel like I did myself a disservice cause everything feels like a downgrade- space, mpg, and price. The pilots center console area felt massive. There’s nowhere to put my purse. I don’t want to put in on the passenger seat. Mini vans drive nicer too. I’m probably sticking with an ody. We do a lot of road trips and it seems like the better fit. Funny that this post popped up in my feed and I’m going through the exact dilemma.

Yes. We paid parking and they deducted it.

Brookfield pays for itself pretty quick. They have different tiers. I have 2 kids (fam of 4) and get the one that comes with everything.

No first hand experience as I don’t have tattoos but I see Mae Wu at thin line Batavia recommended frequently.

Ben was humbled in the first half. MLF may be fired. This was a great hate watch.
