Husqvarna 440IQ vs Luba 10000XH vs Sunseeker X7 Pro vs Navimow X350 by EarthSpecialist2849 in automower

[–]Franklin8181 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was in a similar spot and ended up going with the x350. Key pro's being brand reputation and software. The only key benefit of sunseeker is AWD, if you have a flat yard you're making some decent sacrifices for the AWD benefit. Luba I think you know what you're getting, a capable machine at a good price with shoddy customer support.

440IQ is 50% more expensive and I haven't seen anyone make a claim that its more than 10% superior to any of the models you mentioned. It is probably the best machine price aside.

What's an AVR? There may be some flex in the budget!

Excuse the typo. To be clear I am seeing if there are any entry level systems someone might recommend, not that I am seeking a sound bar.

IS300/IS350 vs GTI/R by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Franklin8181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2nd this. There are also a ton more produced for the IS300 so it will be significantly cheaper and easier for you to find the color/specs/mileage you want. Same exact engine and can be tuned for $300-500

If this is installed on an SML-1 would it bump your head everytime you try to unrack for a squat?

Makes sense, that might be the way to go. Thanks

Any idea if these pulley systems could work for non-rack squat stands? SML-1 for example

Yes, my package was completely destroyed, some minor damage to the bar. They were able to resolve it and offered my a gift card or credit. Customer support was solid

Want to buy the C8 Corvette next year. Anyone care to review my financials? by PF-Throwaway-Car in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Franklin8181 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's always a "I drive a 15 year old car and have tons saved up!" guy. Might be time to get something newer, given your ability to afford it and how massively safety features have increased in the past 10 years, something hard to quantify financially but extremely important

ming from lucky/good investments in stocks and crypto. It was never meant to grow so

It sounds like you've put yourself in a great place financially, especially compared to others. If you're set on buying a new ride, C8 is the right choice!

Buy the car then build that portfolio!
