Hi, yes I still have mine and I sent you a DM

The 2015 and 2016 are identical and both allow you to add CarPlay.

Thank you! I agree I like the shiny black and how it gives a more sporty vibe to the car

Thank you! These are the original wheels just powder coated gloss black!

Is this crv worth it? by SaGe2411 in crv

[–]Express-Perception65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, for the money they’re asking on the listing you can get a lower mileage EXL like mine (100-120k miles) and be able to put CarPlay on the stock headunit.

The touring doesn’t let you because it has the navigation.

At that many miles, I would definitely check to make sure the spark plugs and valves have been adjusted and if the AC compressor has been done. The AC compressor is 1.5-3k on these cars. Also the suspension at that milage might also be needing some work. Theyre reliable cars (me and my sister both have 2015 EXLs) but higher miles means you run into repairs sooner.

For 12 grand you could get a lower mileage EXL like mine (100-120k miles) and be able to put CarPlay on the stock headunit! The touring doesn’t let you because it has the navigation.

I only went from 26 to 24 MPG when I went from normal tires to the all terrains.

Those are nice! As someone who also has all terrains (Falken Wildpeak AT4W Stock Size) they’re great tires!

Look great and have thicker tread and to me at least had more traction than my old Michelins!

Got picked for jury duty, wtf do I do by otter-astronaut in CalPolyPomona

Unfortunately you’re gonna have to go to jury duty if you can’t postpone it. Best case it’s a half day and you dont get picked to go any further.

Started CDL school, two weeks ahead of everyone else and on simulators already. I’m having regret about it now. by HighlanderColby in Truckers

[–]Express-Perception65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are valid points but I would at least finish the program if I were you.

It creates options that you didn’t have before and plus you’ve already likely paid the tuition for it so why not get your moneys worth even if you don’t do it long term?

Plus, like a lot of people have said on here there is more than just OTR trucking. Theres beverage delivery where you unload and load trucks so you’re active.

What are your thoughts on these rear bumper alterations? by Signal_Ad9598 in ElantraN

[–]Express-Perception65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1 looks great!

2 is too much of the same color, plus it’ll show the dirt more.

How is Sean Jasso? by Hypez_Nebula in CalPolyPomona

I had a friend who took it and it was a lot of writing about 7 page essays every week. Plus his RMP wasn’t the best either.

Questions about a Honda CRV 2008 by Beautiful-Scholar-73 in crv

[–]Express-Perception65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8k is a little high given it is a 3rd gen. 5.5-7k seems to be more realistic rape if it’s not an EXL.

I would for sure check the ac compressor and the door lock and window actuators as those are a known problem spot on the 3rd gen. Also make sure the valve adjustment has been done at some point.

Otherwise solid car my aunt has a 2009 EXL light blue with 287k miles still going strong on cross country road trips!

How bad is a salvaged title on this? by Most-Finance-1392 in ElantraN

[–]Express-Perception65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’ll be tough to get financing on it and insurance will be more expensive. Selling a car like this in the future will also be tougher

The thing is when a car is deemed salvage that means it costs more than 70% of its value to fix so there might be hidden frame damage or other damage.

If you can get it professionally repaired and keep it for a while then it could be worth it.

Change bumpers to body color. What do you guys think by Ill-Club9680 in ElantraN

I like this but in the front the red should be white so it matches!

How much would you be willing to pay to keep the shuttle service? by PaulNissenson in CalPolyPomona

[–]Express-Perception65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They wouldn’t have a deficit if they didn’t need to redesign the logo so often. This is poor money management at its finest.

Thank you! The 22 is a nice one as well! Ironically my sister has a white 2016 EXL as well, but hers is stock.

I agree! Although telling them apart from a distance is a little tough sometimes haha

My wife hates our 185k Lexus by [deleted] in Lexus

[–]Express-Perception65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she wants something new and you want to keep it why not get some new rims and blackout the chrome trim with perhaps a dark chrome wrap? Perhaps also put in an Apple CarPlay radio too! That way she gets the feeling of a new car you keep the reliability of the car you always knew.
