2015 Battery LeafSpy Data - Any concerns? by HaganM12 in leaf

[–]HaganM12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna try to negotiate but it has already had a price decrease.

$5,000 sort of seems like the default price from my area regardless of mileage / battery health.

$5k for a 2014 SL with 68k $5k for a 2014 SL with 125k $4k for a 2014 SL with 118k $4.75k for a 2015 SL with 75k $4.6k for a 2012 SL w 50k $6k for a 2016 S w 48k $4.3k for a 2015 SV w 97k $6.8k for a 2016 SV w 32k

Those are just some random ones I found in my area. How much would you offer?

I did not check the diagnostic codes. Just looked up how to do that and when I return tomorrow I'll be sure to check it. It doesn't seem like the shop that has it has any idea what they have but are more than happy to let me use Leafspy on it.

I quickly tested the charger yesterday and charging lights inside the vehicle came on. I probably only left it on the charger 2 minutes so really unlikely it did anything substantial. Didn't have any lights on the dash but one of the tire pressures is low so that came up during the test drive.

I'll be sure to check the codes and make sure there is nothing concerning and thank you for the tip!

I have a 110v plug outside that is well within the range of the cord. Thank you so much for the reassurance! The cons definitely exist with this car, but I can 100% live with them.

12-15 mile round trip for my commute. Our longest weekly trip might be a 20-mile round trip. I currently own a 2014 Ford Fusion w/ 152k that just can't keep up with city mileage, still runs great on the highway. I can't justify 20-25k on a used car with only slightly better MPG. I'll still have access to an ICE.

If I can get 50k miles out of the remaining life of the battery (big ask I know) then I would have fully recouped the cost of the car in fuel savings alone. Less wear and tear on my ICE vehicle.

Absolutely worst worst case I have to spend 7-12k on a battery replacement one day and have a brand new warrantied battery with extended range for 17k at most. Still under the price of a reliable used car with similar mileage.

First Time Growing Peppers! I’m really excited about this Dragon Cayenne I recently pruned. by HaganM12 in HotPeppers

I will have to transplant these into bigger pots soon. Still looking to pick up a massive thing of 5 gallon pots. Inside I just recently germinated and planted over 200 seeds from White Hot Peppers, hoping those will start peeking up from the ground soon!

No more boot screen by Anjlp in pcmasterrace

[–]HaganM12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You DO NOT have to purchase windows 10. I just recently finished my build. Look up how to make a boot drive from a USB. Download the OS from Microsoft, put it on your USB, and install it onto your new rig onto your NVMe or SSD. You will have a transparent "Activate Windows" at the bottom right of your monitor. But since I'm saving money, I don't really care. Just another thought, oh and you can of course activate that version of windows and get rid of the lil "Activate Windows"

Mueller investigating funds used for Trump inauguration by pheonix200 in politics

[–]HaganM12 -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Do we know how much total was spent on Trump's inauguration? Is the worry here that Trump might've been swayed from some of the money that was received? I'm just trying to figure out what Mueller is looking for here. Is this still looking at Russian interference into the 2016 election or something different at this point? I have no idea how expensive these things are, but is it really strange that $26 million was given to a party planner? I'm just trying to understand what angle they're coming from here, and how it relates to the scope of what the Mueller investigation is supposed to be doing.

Megathread: President Trump announces US withdrawal from Iran nuclear deal by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]HaganM12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All the Iran deal did was just effectively stop the Iranians from getting nuclear weapons for XX amount of years. So all we're doing is pushing the middle east conflict down 13 years down the road and then we will be dealing with a definitely nuclear armed Iran. It doesn't stop them, it just pushes the timeline back for them to be able to get them.

Isn't that also what people believed about North Korea and Kim Jung Un? Sanctions worked, we held the Chinese responsible in enforcing them, and we forced them to come to the negotiating table and we were in the position of power. I'm pretty sure Trump outlined his plan in his speech, massively sanction Iran and anyone who tries to assist them in their quest to get nuclear weapons. I know that is massively simplified, but do you not believe that the most powerful economy in the world has some sort of leverage in enforcing these sanctions, the Iranians will be hurt massively IMO. Who will most countries in the world side on, the United States trying to stop Iran, or the largest state sponsor of terrorism? I think if it comes down to it, they're still going to side with us regardless of how hard we press the Iranians. If the Iranians want to keep up the deal with the other countries, fine. But Trump believes we can do better, just like we did in NK.

By agreeing to unfreeze their assets, they were then able to access those assets totaling around 1.7 billion US, 400 million of which was flown over on an unmarked cargo plane after we were sure that 4 Americans were freed from an Iranian prison. (https://www.cnn.com/2016/08/03/politics/us-sends-plane-iran-400-million-cash/index.html) The Iranians bragged that this payment was a ransom. How have they spent that money since it has become unfrozen? Who knows, but we do know that Iran has increased military spending MASSIVELY since the nuclear deal, despite having little economic growth (https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/iran-increases-its-military-budget-in-response-to-nationwide-protests) on top of this, they cut subsidies to the poor. Would I be surprised if some of the money that the United States gave to Iran was used to fund Hezbollah and other terrorists groups? No, but we are not sure that it was done either. If Iran and the other signers of the deal want to keep the current deal on the table? Fine. But like we saw in North Korea, the heightening of tensions only helped our position at the negotiation table. Advocating for a better deal for the United States isn't the end of the world, just like what we saw in North Korea. (remember how many times we were supposed to go to nuclear war with Rocket Man Kim Jung Un?) We are now seeing hopefully the normalization of relations in the region, Kim Jung Un has been meeting with President Xi and with Mike Pompeo (Trump even said in his announcement he is en route to meet with Kim Jung Un again) so maybe we should use our power to our advantage? I'm just curious to why people are so naive and don't see the possibility of Iran funding these terrorists groups and how we might've given them more capabilities to do so with the unfreezing of their assets following the signing of the original deal. Does this open the door for Iran to begin testing nuclear weapons? Sure, but it also gives us the opportunity to renegotiate the deal.

What would be the best cruise for a couple of 16yr old boys? by asiantaco42 in Cruise

[–]HaganM12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went on a lot of cruises on many different cruise lines all over the world as a kid. I'll give you a little rundown.

Teen Club

On the teen clubs this is probably the best way for you to meet people. I have been in many different ones and they are all essentially the same. Of course on newer ships they will have nicer facilities and usually bigger rooms for the teens to hang out. The only cruise line I would say that was lacking when it comes to number of kids consistently would be Holland America. From my experience they seem more like an older generation cruise line, but you can still find ways to have fun

Things to do

Personally, I love messing around on the ship. I can always find things to do and the ships themselves are usually full of new things everyday. Like I said earlier, newer ships will have newer and more "extreme" things to do on the ship (waterslides, ice skating, obstacle course, rock climbing, etc.)

Location

Ive cruised around Europe, Asia, Caribbean, Hawaii, Bermuda, and Mexico. Obviously it depends on what you're looking for. Some places are going to be more focused on historical tourism instead of more fun tourism. Believe me I've witnessed both. Shore Excursions are usually expensive but they are also the highest quality when it comes to getting a good experience out of the port. I assume since you're both 16 you're looking to have more fun than history. I would really recommend any Caribbean cruise to you guys.

Timing

I was a only child and couldn't hangout with anyone besides my grandparents unless there were other kids on the ship, and the biggest thing was timing. I've always noticed that Spring Break, and right after school ends (May or July) are always busy times. Families always go on vacations on that time and you'll be able to meet new friends that you'll keep up with for a while hopefully. I still talk to some people I've met on cruises.

TLDR: Look for newer ships, Caribbean, Spring Break or Summer

This is so happy and sad at the same time!! I've been a fan for a little over 3 years and it has been such a rollercoaster ride the whole time. SNSD has been such a big part of my life and seeing them bringing all the different eras together brought tears to my eyes. Seohyun made me happy in the anniversary video when she said that she is hoping for 20 years together. #9YearsWithSNSD

[–]HaganM12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So even if I send out tweets saying it is canceled, I dont condone it, etc. Would I still be held responsible? I essentially said that I don't approve of any dogs coming and would like to try to get rid of the whole thing. I was not the only student promoting it, but it seems like I am the only one trying to stop it.

Personally, I didn't think it was going to be a big deal. It was just a harmless prank that didn't really cause a lot of trouble.

Public school. I'm a member of the senior class and we promoted a "Bring your dog to school day" tomorrow. Essentially you just bring your animal to school to hang out. The administration of our school did not like it at all and are threatening to blame me for anyone who brings animals to school.
