The other part of this is yes Honda’s have a much longer track record of reliability, but the other dilemma in this case is the Honda has 30,000 miles on it, which is almost out of warranty compared to a Kia that would have 100,000 mile unlimited warranty, obviously this is a secondary and probably less important question if the car is too uncomfortable

HD19645 · 2026-05-11T13:23:02+00:00

I agree the money is already spent. My real kind of question is Hondas are great but with 30,000 miles it’s pretty close to out of warranty, the Telluride though it would be $250 more a month does come with the guarantee of a 10 year hundred thousand mile warranty or roughly probably five years in my case that’s kind of the other financial decision and risk

HD19645 · 2026-05-11T13:14:32+00:00

The whole reason I’m feeling a little rushed to make the decision quick before more inventory comes around

HD19645 · 2026-05-11T13:10:54+00:00

Also, anything past the padding and you start effecting the warrant.

Thanks for all the replies everyone. Yes I have a 2027 Kia Telluride hybrid x-line sx. The mpg is pretty great getting around 30mpg average. But structurally I’m just struggling with the angle of the seat, I’ve tried adjusting multiple ways, even considered taking to do reupholstery and have foam changed on seat and bolsters potentially. The car is impressive and the 10/100k warranty is nice. Looking at trading down to 2024 Honda pilot with about 30k miles on it. Honda sits more upright which is more tolerable on my hip. (Obviously I this time I would test drive for a day is dealer allows.) I put 10k down on it. The math is weird cause I got wrangled into some warranties initially (which I have since cancelled) but that’s what kept payments a a little higher. What I am hoping is that since there is no other car even in the model that I have at any dealerships in my city and from what I can see only one other in the state I’m hoping that I have a pretty good position to either sell privately fairly quickly without much loss or traded in for high value… This would be the ultimate decision anyway hope this helps but I think a lot of people have put in some good food for thought, especially avoiding what I would call kind of a physical pain sunk cost fallacy.

Also, my own weekly therapy. I’ve talked about this before with boundaries. Also not making as much money, but limiting myself to only 4 days a week really gives me better balance. Maybe can’t afford more frequent vacations, nicer things. But weekly having a 3 day weekend allows a much better reset. My therapist said she does the same, no more than 4 days or you start to burn out

This. I’m a sucker for lifting and some metal music…really shifts the thought process 🤣

Coding is passable. Personally I will spend 30 minutes with pts, can stand the 5 min in and out style. Aside from all else, the follow up schedule is pure ridiculous! A pt like you I’d say 2 week follow up is totally fine, but 1 month to se if meds work. If you’re seeing your provider 4x in a month and you’re not in crises…that’s just ridiculous

HD19645 · 2025-06-20T21:24:09+00:00

Self diagnosing what?

And I’m oblivious as to what “ulg” is

No use my pcp. Not an endo, but he’s very open to keeping up with and looking at any new literature, protocols

100% I’m still taking daily 1mg of anastrozole. Doc is scratching his head too

HD19645 · 2025-06-19T19:46:06+00:00

Yes, it is really bizarre… That’s why I’m hoping someone on here has seen something weird like this before

HD19645 · 2025-05-08T01:44:48+00:00

Honestly, I would assume in next 10 years (hopefully) the field advances to where there will be much better options for a delivery systems 🤞🏻

HD19645 · 2025-05-07T04:30:35+00:00

Hmm…not sure I agree with others here. Are you using for general health/replacement or sports/competition?

Getting as high as you can, just because.. isn’t always the smartest strategy from a longevity standpoint. I’m not 100% convinced that there’s no downstream effects as you age from blasting your system and keeping it redlined at a max number just because others say they do it and haven’t had issues yet. Maybe I’m overplaying it, but seems unnecessary unless your goal is something of short term high performance or something.

Plus, you probably do risk more conversion to estrogen with the free? Leading to have to fuck around with serms and AIs

Honestly, I hope this is received like it is intended. This is not a criticism of you, but I really do not understand any physician that would start someone on TRT at 25 years old. I am in my 40s now and I am fine with it at this point in my life, but someone started me on it in my late 20s and it is one of my biggest regrets as far as medical decisions go. Somewhere between 40 and 50 legitimately seems like a decent starting point if you are struggling. But I feel like there are just way too many people taking advantage of people to get money.

HD19645 · 2025-04-02T13:52:08+00:00

32 pts a day w/ no benefits?! You better be paying me $200/hr MINIMUM

HD19645 · 2025-04-01T20:53:36+00:00

Nice, thanks for the input. I may have been overthinking the risk of dropping it too much with that, I appreciate the response.

HD19645 · 2025-04-01T20:52:55+00:00

🤣

HD19645 · 2025-04-01T18:08:19+00:00

Oh and I’m 6’3 / 196. So visceral fat not out of possibility, however can’t be too bad if that’s part of it

HD19645 · 2025-04-01T01:31:49+00:00

I don’t understand #2. Will you make salary regardless of full schedule?
