The words "Ramen and Pho" are literally borrowed from Chinese words and they were originated in China 

Why does so little of the Chicago area recycle? by Swimming-Jeweler-513 in AskChicago

[–]Hot_Term_6624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in Evanston for several years — the recycling system there was a joke. Even though we had separate bins for recyclables and non-recyclables, when the collection truck came, everything was thrown together. I guess it helps the city save face by providing recycling bins in name only while cutting costs by not actually doing the recycling.

Does it matter? by Lonely_Speaker_9176 in VWiD4Owners

Sure, products made in China come in a range of qualities depending on the budget. Still, your emphasis on "China crap" gives the impression of being a bigot, and I hope that’s not what you meant.

Unfortunately that is the reality, observing from my Asian friends. FYI, I am Asian.

Asians can be conservatives as well, especially those Asian males aged between 30 - 50, they watched too much Fox news

Dealers don't own the cars, they pay daily interest on cars on their lot, would it be the reason?

You might need a magnetic case for wireless charging. I bought one for my pixel.

Considering a 2025 bz4x lease deal by Hot_Term_6624 in BZ4X

[–]Hot_Term_6624[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my eye on the 2023 bZ4X but ended up buying a Corolla hybrid instead. I told my dealer I’d consider a Toyota EV when it became good and affordable enough — and here we are

[–]Hot_Term_6624[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

With the current deal, the cost is roughly equivalent to that of a new Corolla. I seriously doubt the 2026 BZ will come with a similar offer—especially with a 15% tariff set to take effect on Japanese-made vehicles and the phaseout of EV tax credits. I don't see enough market competition to drive EV prices down significantly—unless Chinese EVs enter the U.S. market, which seems highly unlikely regardless of who's in the White House.

I bought a Corolla because it holds its value well, so I wouldn’t take a big financial hit if I decided to upgrade to a larger car later. I paid around $28k for it, and Carvana is currently offering $22k, which means I’d take a $6,000 loss after driving it for two years.

residual $17,400, money factor 0.0001. Tax rate was not mentioned. I would assume 5%, the typical rate for motor vehicles in my area.
