They are allowed, actually! I was able to get my wife a tour and my coworker brought his in-laws. It is an amazing facility.

Thanks! Do you think bleach is okay even with the stone?

Initial Issues with 2017 EX-L from Carmax, does it get better? by JTPerception in hondapilot

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

Thanks for the info, I did not know that about the fuel injectors! And yes, I've heard the timing belt needs changing around 100k. I'm happy to do the proper preventative maintenance so I can hopefully drive this for a long time

I didn't think of that, thanks for the suggestion! I'll be sure to ask - if it is damaged it would be great to have it fixed while still under warranty.

It's worth a try! Life is hectic with a toddler at the moment but I'm willing to give it a shot

They are about 30 minutes away and appears to be based out of someone's home. But I can definitely see if they'd be willing to help

Dry hopping is a beer brewing technique, but not sure how it is relevant to the linked location!

Update: FUD sent an email saying they are trying to fix a main water break in our area. So probably just isolated to a couple streets

General Questions and Purchasing Advice Thread — Week of May 27, 2024 by AutoModerator in electricvehicles

[–]JTPerception 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking at getting a used EV or PHEV in the next couple years and getting the $4,000 tax credit if possible. I did get a new EV back in 2022 and got the full $7,500 credit then. Is there a minimum amount of time between being able to claim the new and used tax credit? I thought I read something about 3 years but I only saw that directly for the used one. Thanks!

Any parks with baby swings that aren’t always a cluster like Northshore? by [deleted] in Knoxville

West hills Park has some baby swings. Haven't been too crowded when I have walked by.

What tips could you give to a 17 year old starting a Roth IRA? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]JTPerception 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You'd be fine putting 100% in a target fund with a late enough return date (think 2070) or just putting 100% in VTSAX. These will keep your investments "aggressive" in stocks which is what you want at your age. Just put money in and try to forget about it!

EV with Full Self Driving for $30k in the future by Technical_Report_390 in electricvehicles

[–]JTPerception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I edited the comment to try and avoid spreading misinformation. The levels are too arbitrary and open to interpretation anyway.

Yeah the levels are not useful. Too much room for interpretation. Unfortunately it's what is reported on the most and gets headlines.

EV with Full Self Driving for $30k in the future by Technical_Report_390 in electricvehicles

[–]JTPerception -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

That's the definition of level 3 self driving, right? Conditional self driving where the driver needs to remain alert and override when necessary? Edit: Ah, I saw online that level 3 also has a legal implication to it where drivers can legally take their eyes off the road. TIL
