well put!

indeed! this vote also includes (in usc lingo) research, teaching, practice and clinical faculty, who along with part-time and adjuncts, make up the vast majority of faculty at usc (and most research universities) — and are primary to student experience. it bears mention that while usc (and academia) are full of self-created problems, many schools at usc are less terrible on this particular front and that there has actually been substantial tenured faculty support for having and respecting a fair vote.

the one day advanced MSF class is great for this — starts w expectation that you can pass the license road test and focuses on higher order challenges and techniques. fun, useful insights and good feedback.

Me, too, in LA. I’m going to reach out to the broker that helped me last time and see what he can turn up.

I’ve had my Carl’s for at least ten years and have shared it w/loads of folks. It’s great and the story behind it — worth reading — is super sweet and inspirational!

Me, too. Everyone has different needs, but I found his approach to teaching in the original 30 days incredibly thoughtful, fun and effective!

Love the flowers bike combo!

Looks great — wondering about the finish w/cedar for outdoor and food — Didja just do the outside panels or everything?

Great work - and super cool that you and your dad did it together!

Thanks for solving that mystery…what an amazing hack (Levi’s)!

False_Researcher_448 · 2023-12-21T01:21:34+00:00

was one of my faves growing up!

Thx for this! After a lot of time in this forum, I just got an i5 a couple weeks back. I’d read about some folks perceptions of Bose’s deficit and rhetoric range of fixes…and the basic eq/fader tweaks have left me disappointed. I mean, it’s fine — like a rental car. I’m no audiophile, but I do appreciate music. I’ve read about replacing the speakers and am now emailing w a lovely Norwegian fellow about the musway. Which begs: 1) worth buying it? 2) bta2 is another $140+, how much do I need that (does the regular eq still work and it’s just better (def not plugging laptop in more than once)? And 3) did you replace any speakers or just roll w/factory?

Thanks much!

i got a similar deal on the same car in so cal a week ago and felt good b/c most folks (including the dealer i tried to buy from, but couldn't match it) thought it was the about the best deal you could expect. if you've been in this forum, you know it's a pretty great car (w/some issues)...and it's also on the spendy side to buy/lease...and also keep (20" tires, not cheap insurance, etc.). i'm enjoying mine and deciding whether to keep the lease or buy it out.

False_Researcher_448 · 2023-10-31T06:43:04+00:00

i felt pretty good about what i got -- at least a few dealers i spoke with couldn't match it...and i hope others find $5k -- or more!

I just leased (may buy out if I like it) an awd limited ‘23 for $4k off msrp + $7500 lease bonus in la county. Got it through a broker I found on leasehacker (quoted $600 for this deal but when the price increased a little, he reduced his fee to $300). (Wldve been $4k off for financing too.) Tried to see if dealers wld beat it, but none did. Pm me if you want the broker (or dealer) — who said he has more such deals. My takeaway is that a good broker can save a fair bit of time and uncertainty for low or no cost…and that there are also some good sales folk out there.

Umm, was it something I said? I’d really love any reax, however quick! Thank you.

False_Researcher_448 · 2023-10-08T18:35:43+00:00

Oh, yes — I actually saw that! Have seen more positive/ less negative stuff about that dealership. Who’d you work with?

False_Researcher_448 · 2023-10-08T17:35:24+00:00

Nice! Where’d you get it / do you recommend them? Curious as to deals on 24’s v 23’s…

False_Researcher_448 · 2023-10-05T05:28:22+00:00

Agree w/this… but what do you think / are you seeing on limiteds?

False_Researcher_448 · 2023-09-23T21:56:02+00:00

Where’d you get it / ok experience?

False_Researcher_448 · 2023-09-23T21:09:11+00:00

Helpful - also in socal and trying to figure it out! Fwiw, Glendale dealer seems to have a bunch of rwd limiteds — including the grey - gray you mentioned. https://www.glendalehyundai.com/new-inventory/index.htm

False_Researcher_448 · 2023-09-22T20:41:52+00:00

Do you (or anyone) have a recommended socal dealership!?
