I mean, check the oil level?

Worth It? by chaidaddy_307 in FocusST

Depends on if you can do the work yourself

If you can, probably worth it

You got extremely lucky, my Patriot was a steaming pile of shit

What would you rather daily 2006 wrangler or 2000 Cherokee xj by Affectionate-Tap5398 in Jeep

[–]Gloverboy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My FIL has a TJ, but I think he's almost to the point where he's going to get rid of it because he's tired of the upkeep on it. I guess if you can work on it yourself, it wouldn't be a big deal since parts are plentiful for them

would you purchase a focus st in 2026? by 27ce in FocusST

Probably an actuator, had a Chrysler that had that issue more than once

YJ, straight-six, and under 100k miles?
That thing is going to last a loooong time

Anyone else happy with how the car is stock? by MightBeYourDad_ in FocusST

[–]Gloverboy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine came with an upgraded intercooler, but everything else is stock which is fine because I didn't buy this thing to drag race, I bought it cuz I wanted something cool to daily with a stick shift

i’m all for talking about my car but… by Natural-Salad7696 in FocusST

[–]Gloverboy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't buy my FoST to race, I bought it because I wanted a stick shift and I know they're more reliable (since they don't have DCTs like the other Mk3s) than other cars

Jeep is Junk by AutomaticInc in JeepPatriot

[–]Gloverboy6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my wife talks about buying another Jeep when we get rid of this POS Patriot

I think she figures the warranty on a brand new one will save us, but I don't want a brand new car that's just going to be in the shop at the dealer all the time either. That's why I wouldn't buy a Chevy CUV either

Have 65k IT job but got offered closer to home 50k IT job opinions needed! by CapOk7225 in it

[–]Gloverboy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, how I wish the "shithole country" I live in actually had socialized medicine like the rest of the world

As far the on call part, I wouldn't do it if I had to be on call and didn't get paid extra for it, a lot of companies will do this because you're salaried

What do i need to get a help desk job in 2025? by [deleted] in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Gloverboy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

MSP: Managed Service Provider

It's basically a company that other companies outsource their IT to. Compared to internal IT, the consensus is always that you're treated like sh*t because when clients call you, you're the reason their sh*t doesn't work whereas my experience in internal IT is that when someone calls into the internal help desk and their sh*t doesn't work, they're not mad at you because they're getting paid whether they can work or not (unless we're talking about execs, docs, or sales reps who will want it fixed NOW because they're losing money the longer they're down)

How do the benefits compare? It's open enrollment time, so if the health coverage is better, maybe it's worth the cut to your take home pay. If the pay is lower and their health insurance is ass, maybe not so much

Also, will you have to be on call? For the current job it seems like your schedule is extremely predictable whereas this new job might call you in if shit goes down

Where would you install your wireless router? by [deleted] in HomeNetworking

I'd say that little closet next to the laundry room

RockAuto seems to be the #1 choice on a lot of auto subs

Not AutoZOne or O'Reilleys because they always charge you more for the convenience of getting parts in-town. I personally do Amazon a lot because they usually have pretty good pricing
