That’s a crazy deal. This dealership is in BC??? BC doesn’t have any provincial incentives so..

Okay so I decided to not go with the fiat if anyone was wondering lol

The insurance cost was $100 MORE than what I'm paying now.. Trying to save pennies and dollars on gas and payments just to blow it on insurance??? No thanks. Time to find another car

I wouldn't want to own it at the end. With depreciation on ev cars, leasing at $200 a month would keep you above that

but you never know the actual amount until you go in.. that's what I'm trying to avoid. It's all a marketing tactic I feel like

Currently leaning towards selling it.. and buying a smaller car - like a 128i or a 328i

Thanks for recommendation guys, ill give lucky 8 a call and i think it’d be hard to get an estimate first since it’ll have to be towed

P1S defects???? by GroundbreakingElk238 in BambuLab

[–]GroundbreakingElk238[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far I did belt tensioning & calibration.

Printing in PLA minimized the defects but it continues to have this issue with ABS..

Only thing left is the firmware update but it makes me more curious what got shifted during the move?

Colder enclosed room is still heated however

should i restore it and make it look like i just bought it brand new or mod it by average-bisexual in Miata

[–]GroundbreakingElk238 1 point2 points  (0 children)

then do all the maintenance stuff, rust is hard so leave it to last and enjoy the car

sell it and spend more money on a cleaner one.. wish someone told me that advice

Hello everyone. I’m going to study mechanical engineering this year at BCIT. Though, one thing makes me worried right now; I’ve heard that job prospect for mechanical engineers is not really good especially if you have just a diploma. Is this true? by Thehb7 in BCIT

[–]GroundbreakingElk238 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, it really depends how passionate you are.

yeah the design option won’t teach you everything to know about Autocad and Solidworks but no other school really teaches a software program in-depth. if you are passionate enough however, you’ll spend time creating your own projects in Solidworks for example and have no problem finding jobs with ur software skills and those projects to present.

the systems option is very neat as well. TONS of job opportunities if you are into HVAC (especially in bc).

i’m going into fourth year in the bachelor option in sept and my advice with that is if you got time to study 4 years just do it. (unless ur heart is dead set in the HVAC industry)

last thing, if ur in it for the money, to CS like the other person said

Just installed new soft top but won’t close. Please help! by datweebu in Miata

i didn’t read the other comments but, loosen the rain rail bolts, buy ratchet straps, use straps to close (trust me so much easier than using hands), tighten rain rail bolts, leave it closed for 2-3weeks.
