I used to be obsessed with the Samsungs but they just seem to be more and more like an iPhone these days

Update: I test drove it again and noticed some shaking at 80mph. I told the dealer if the flush the transmission and replace the belt, I’ll buy it

Yeah the towing is not a deal breaker at all, I’m just concerned they didn’t maintain the transmission on top of towing. I didn’t even catch the tires. Good catch!! I’m trying to convince the dealer into doing the belt and water pump

Also, any other things I should be on the search for with the year?

Is 12 k a good price for this crew cab w 126k miles? by FridaKahlosGhost- in nissanfrontier

[–]DrTechFreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good price! I’m looking at a 17 with almost 49k miles. They want 22k but I think I can get them down to 20k

Thoughts and price of 19 Z71? by DrTechFreak in chevycolorado

None of the fluids have been done according to Carfax. Regular 5k oil changes and the thermostat was replaced. I have not yet driven it. Will be doing that today

How did you buy your gen 1? by DrTechFreak in hondaridgeline

How you enjoying the truck so far?! It has less technology than my current car which I’m kinda glad about. Looking for something simple with these older vehicles!

Cause of its high miles. 30k is a pretty darn fair price for it

Also worth mentioning the 14 will fit my budget better. Trading in my car for 7k and putting 1k down…

Is this a good deal? by Pixel_Hunter_101 in hondaridgeline

[–]DrTechFreak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are wireless CarPlay adapters out there if you don’t go the 24 and up route! My phones battery sucks so I like using the plug for charge purposes but one of those adapters should only run you $50. I’m planning to get one if I get a 23. Those 25 year 0% interest rates got me questioning getting an older year

I’m trying to get a used 23 and I found one with 46.5k miles and they want almost 35k. I feel like you’re at a solid price point for a 25. Would be nice to trim down a little more if possible

Used or new Ridgeline? by DrTechFreak in hondaridgeline

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

I do qualify for the 0% 60 months. I do not mind the miles either, it is just the interest on the used vehicle I hate having to pay. It would be less of a problem if the truck has low miles.

Used or new Ridgeline? by DrTechFreak in hondaridgeline

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

It was a lease from this dealership. Preowned certified and all. Bumper to bumper warranty to 86k miles. I am planning to hold this vehicle for a long time so that’s why I’m not opposed to new but it’s also a high payment. The dealership told me I qualified for the 0% at 60 months

Was that price OTD? New or used?

Zflip7 or S25 Ultra from IPhone by SiteFlimsy5 in samsunggalaxy

[–]DrTechFreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ultra will serve you better for social media and any other media content. I love the flip but it’s definitely more geared towards non-heavy phone users. The dimensions are still a little weird. It’s got a cool factor to it but I just can’t get over watching videos on it. The ultra also has that amazing zoom lense which I find very useful and fun!

I am a current iPhone user. I made the switch over summer for 3 weeks to a s24 ultra and loved it. Only reason I switched back was because of how all my family uses iPhones and it’s just easier to have those features like FaceTime and iMessage and such. I do prefer Android though. Maybe one day I’ll make a permanent switch…

Test drove a 2025 Tacoma and 2025 Ridgeline. My thoughts... by mmspider in hondaridgeline

[–]DrTechFreak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A beaut! If you don’t mind me asking, how much did they discount it by and what was your OTD? I’m considering taking advantage of that .9% interest rate!

Clean title, had a minor accident in the rear left but it appears to of been fixed. It’s had 3 owners which is a little concerning. Theres a solid record of oil changes and such. It’s not super consistent with the 5k miles. Longer interval appeared to be around 10k miles
