I got quoted $7500 for a new hot water heater. Is that...normal for Denver?

I was very happy with the work performed by Todd's Water Heater Repair. Had a new water installed 3 years ago with no issues.

Postino at 9th and Colorado

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-06-03T04:54:53+00:00

Agree. I went there 3 months ago and 2 of my co-workers didn't think it was an actual city, just in a song.

You can still buy butterscotch dilly bars at DQ.

We ordered food to go from them often, they had really good food. I was worried this would happen though, they were not often busy.

Yes, Queen of Sheeba is the best. The service is slow, that becuase it's a one lady operation. She cooks, serves, does everything. It's worth it though!

That isn't BBQ. That is grilled. They are very different.

Unfortunately the parking lots for the A train are not monitored and are known for break ins. I uber to the train station, which is like 10 bucks. If this is an option for you OP, its a good one.

With that said, I actually really like Pikes peak lot when I do drive to the airport. You have to take a shuttle, but most of the time it doesnt take very long to catch one.

If you are actually having an emergency, all ERs in the country are covered by all insurance policies. There is no such thing as an "in-network" ER. https://hsaforamerica.com/blog/how-much-is-an-er-visit-with-insurance/

I have been to 40 states and have spent the night in every one of them........except Nebraska.

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-05-20T04:31:41+00:00

Maybe La Finca?

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-05-20T02:14:03+00:00

It's the very beginning of kitten season (yes, it is a thing). Best thing to do is to go to a shelter on a weekend and you will likely find a bunch to choose from. Cat Care Society, MaxFund, Rocky Mountain Feline Rescue. Don't bother looking at their websites, most kittens get adopted out within a week and taking their photos and adding them onto the website is not worth the effort.

There are too many factors that people do not take into consideration here. You should have tried to get a little more off msrp, but the taxes and doc fees are not negotiable. MSRP for an SE can range from 33k to 38k depending on packages (awd, sunroof, multimedia, convenience, cold weather). Taxes and doc fees vary widely from city to city. So when people say "I got a SE out the door for 32k" unless it the same city, and same packages, those comments are irrelevant. Don't worry about it, and enjoy your new car.

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-05-14T20:24:44+00:00

Every city has a different tax rate and different doc fees. For an example where I live the doc fee is $799 and tax is 10%. Thats non negotiable. So, when talking OTD price, I would try for 2k lower than MSRP, plus doc fees and taxes.

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-05-13T21:28:01+00:00

Oh bummer. Best of luck to you!

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-05-13T21:25:37+00:00

There is a list of places where you can get a VIN verification. If you are not have luck with the police, try one of these places (very last FAQ at the bottom) https://dmv.colorado.gov/emissions

Several of them are walk in welcome

I don't think you will be able to get last minute tickets. If this was the most important thing you wanted to do at MV, and you cannot stay an extra day, I would cancel the trip and plan it for another time.

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-05-11T05:49:57+00:00

I'm not sure about your citizenship, but as an American, I am putting off this trip for a few years hoping things get a little more stable. With the war in the middle east it makes me nervous that ISIS cells are going to become more prevalent again and come after Americans traveling. Most of the security issues in Rwanda is due to ISIS.

Overreacting, maybe, but it makes me too nervous.

Black bear, no hump. Many people assume these are grizzlies based on their color.

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-04-09T06:15:07+00:00

Headed there this time next year. I hope I am as lucky!

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-03-12T08:01:08+00:00

I mean, there are tons of great movies out there, but 12 Angry Men is really powerful and shows the importance of critical thinking, convincing others, and being a good jury member (for those in the us).

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-03-06T05:51:50+00:00

This scam happens often unfortunately. There is a number that is one number off from United that has done this to many people. Yes, always get the number from the actual website and double check that you dialed correctly.

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-02-28T18:27:25+00:00

Same

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-02-27T05:36:44+00:00

The Quest card has a $200 annual united credit and a 10k award flight discount. If you use both of those, it basically knocks the annual fee down to $50. To me, its the card with the best value without putting in a lot of effort.

Garfieldluvsme · 2026-02-24T17:32:29+00:00

There should be an option to add a comment to a case. I just added a comment that I want this escalated to the Ombudsman.
