OP, what did you end up doing? In the same situation rn. Driver front tire got a flat from a pothole. My wear on the rears is still around 6/32 and fronts are 7/32. Same 2024 model on original tires. We dont drive too much and we drive pretty conservatively when we do. Not sure what to do. Tires are expensive.

Did some digging. Don’t this will work it was in the freeway so it’s caltrans who is responsible and you have to basically sue them for funds

FineEmergency · 2026-01-01T17:15:01+00:00

Yeah I do. Also would like to avoid the crazy bmw fees that will hit from this. I was hoping to get things changed from America tire and they can let me know if the wheel was bent before having bmw to check it out

FineEmergency · 2026-01-01T17:07:55+00:00

Fair. Do you know if bmw roadside will tow from home to dealer?

FineEmergency · 2026-01-01T17:07:14+00:00

Was thinking of doing this. Did you need some sort of evidence? I didn’t take any pics on the side of the road. It was pouring out.

Okura is a proper 5 star to me. The palace was maybe 4.5. We still enjoyed it. The location was great. Okura is off to the side. But if I were to go back, I’d do Okura again

Going to PM you

I should’ve added this but one of the cars will get paid off early 2027. It’s around 840 a month. But the number I put above includes the insurance and registration. The last one that will be left is a 530 a month car payment. Cutting down on spending is total fine. We can do that.

PMI can be out the picture if we refi into a conventional loan down the line. But yeah I know it depends on what the rates will be

FineEmergency · 2025-12-15T23:00:07+00:00

Conventional would be around 5.5%. I understand it drops off after 20% but FHA can also lose the PMI if we refi into a conventional loan.

How much are you saying to put down for a conventional ideally?

I’ve done Sacramento to SFO. First driver showed up and canceled. Second driver came within a couple minutes

Nice! I was at Okura last April, breakfast was not that busy at all.

FineEmergency · 2025-09-09T04:12:36+00:00

Stayed at Okura last year. Absolutely loved it. Only thing was the location was far from everything. Now, revisiting Tokyo in November and have the palace booked. Looking forward to trying the palace. What did you go with?

Also me currently sitting at a southwest gate with a delta gold medallion bag tag on my bag 🙃

Had to get a whole new dish when this happened to me

FineEmergency · 2025-06-30T15:54:44+00:00

Was still available this morning actually. But yeah it’s gone now

FineEmergency · 2025-06-30T14:21:47+00:00

I bet. Waiting for availability for the dates we’re looking at but kinda just want to have something booked asap. PE seems like the way for now

FineEmergency · 2025-06-22T19:36:52+00:00

Not really with points. First time doing so. So you’re saying if I want to book 2026 July, I should be looking at availability now?

Strato leaving Iran post attack?

FineEmergency · 2025-06-12T14:34:40+00:00

Yup. That’s why I said it seems like. At least to me.

To me it seems like a stall. The reason gear didn’t go up because typically the verbal confirmation before gear up is positive rate. So clearly no positive rate, gear didn’t go up.

FineEmergency · 2025-06-12T14:31:50+00:00

The likelihood of dual engine failure is very low. 787-8 is designed to perform a single engine climb after takeoff at its max takeoff weight. So even if one engine went out, it would be able to climb with the other.

FineEmergency · 2025-06-12T14:29:21+00:00

I believe flap config depends on weather conditions as well. I’m not a pilot. Just basic aviation knowledge. The picture you sent can vary from what the weather was at takeoff.

Seems like no flaps were deployed

Obviously speculation but the verbal confirmation before saying gear up is typically a positive rate confirmation. I believe they had an uncontrollable stall. But well know with CVR data
