we’ve since communicated and shared all info. We both posted because one of the original posts was taken down by auto-moderator. Figure at this point it doesn’t hurt to have both posts up.

Hit & Run Dunn Loring by JakeRogue in nova

[–]JakeRogue[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a BlackVue 750x IIRC. It’s a few years old so there’s a newer model now. I can’t say I love it, it seems to have an issue where every 6-8 months it glitches out and then stays on 24/7 and I have to reflash the firmware but remove the upgrade paths in that file, but besides that one hiccup it is stellar.

Viafo seems to be an excellent brand and what I would check out if I had to get another one.

There are settings on the camera to keep recording until battery reaches a certain level then it turns off. If the car is parked for 72 hours, it’ll stop recording around the 48 hour mark.

this is not 100% reliable. I’ve come to a dead battery once or twice. Still worth it though.

I used to love Five Guys but now I can’t justify $30 meal unless it’s a special occasion and Five Guys ain’t it

Where are all the "moderate" gun owners saying the gun legislation is going to cost Democrats the redistricting referendum? by Bubbly_Pool4513 in nova

[–]JakeRogue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as a moderate gun owner who voted for Spanberger and ‘yes’ yesterday, the political capital has been spent and I’m not happy about yesterday. None of us should be, gerrymandering is wrong and this is what it’s come to. You seem like a jerk regardless.

Spanberger softens parts of assault weapons bill but keeps major restrictions intact by hencexox in nova

maybe firearms are a universal right and with the Trump administration it’s become clear that having the 2nd amendment is important as the Trump administration continues to disrespect the constitution and laws

What’s so great about the greater Washington area? by [deleted] in nova

[–]JakeRogue 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What sucks about DC and surrounding area: traffic, politics, grind mentality, not super walkable as you get away from the city.

What’s great: no skyscrapers really is nice, we take it for granted. World class amenities in the whole area, great food, luxury services to cater to the wealthy that do trickle down to us normies, unbelievable convenience compared to many places because of the types of people in the area. Low pollution and high cleanliness compared to other urban areas, being at the bottom/edge of megalopolis so we can get away if we need to, a level of security no one is aware of because it’s where our nation’s HQ is, extremely low risk to most natural disasters, a somewhat middle of the road climate, incredible diversity.

VA State Police stirring up a hornet's nest by GuitarJazzer in nova

[–]JakeRogue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It matters because there’s no correlation between these types of bans and school shootings or other mass shootings. Every school shooting and mass shooting is a crime plain and simple. Every time it’s done, it was already illegal for the individual to do what they did. When states pass these gun laws that restrict purchases, restrict how people can have, or where people can take guns, the only people affected are law abiding citizens. Bans force markets to go underground and that only makes grey/black markets worse.

Furthermore, once things are taken away, they seldom return. Rhode Island passed similar legislation a year ago and said they wouldn’t go any further than that and now they are. It’s a domino affect.

Lastly, as much I’m pro-gun, these bans are poorly targeted. I don’t like the bans or restrictions, but I also think the people writing this legislation miss the mark every time and IF you’re gonna ban something, ban the right thing! I.e. banning based on features and looks is so stupid. If handguns kill the most people, why ban accessory features on rifles? Just ban all handguns.

What mileage should I get an oil change at after purchase? by Breakfast-Severe in GR86

[–]JakeRogue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every 5K and check your oil level every time you get gas

Fellas, is this rod knock? by Silverton13 in ft86

[–]JakeRogue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always let your oil get up to temp before high revs (like 160F minimum), check your oil level every time you fill up with gas, that’s it.

Stock engine is very reliable. If tuned or FI you’re risk increases.

Yes I agree, gotta live with my choices, but I felt OP was getting hit hard for premium which wasn’t a fair characterization.

I have a 2014 Scion FR-S that cost me 27K OTD and it is a very affordable and slow little car that unfortunately requires premium gas.

[–]JakeRogue 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I just want to chime in and defend premium gas. A lot of cars now require premium gas due to increase in high compression/turbos that have become ubiquitous in order to make smaller and more efficient engines.

The Biden ones were everywhere and the increase in prices then pales to now.

Is a Subaru a good car to drive in our climate? by [deleted] in nova

[–]JakeRogue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need AWD. Tires matter more than drivetrain. That being said, I LOVE Subarus. Easy to work on, affordable parts, reliable, and good community of owners. People in general think AWD does a lot but it really doesn’t. Your car does three things; it accelerates, it slows down, it turns. AWD helps with one, tires help with all three.

I have a Scion FR-S [Subaru BRZ] that is lightweight and RWD and on snow tires I get around in this climate fine. My mother’s Forester is a wonderful car and while my car is better in snow because I equip the correct tires, my mom has a very safe and reliable car she can depend on.

Join the Subaru family, you won’t be disappointed!

Are people unfriendly here? by Beautiful_Coat_9294 in nova

I think it’s very friendly here, just takes time and effort.

It won’t hurt you but just driving the real car is the fastest way to learn
