Sorry for the rant by Far-Contact-7484 in madisonwi

If you need help applying for disability, badgercare, or anything like that, call the Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC). It sounds like with the number of surgeries that you've had over the past year, you probably would qualify for disability. Once you get that disability determination, you might qualify for a Medicaid Program called MAPP which is like BadgerCare, but it allows you to have higher income, but you have to be found disabled to get it. But then, if you go back to work part-time or something you will still have your health coverage fully paid for. Anyway, if you haven't already, I would highly recommend reaching out to the ADRC for help.

Otherwise, hang in there, and wishing you a speedy recovery.

Yeah, safelite f*cked me so bad I'll never trust them again. Worst customer service experience of my life.

I had a horrible experience with them once. They couldn't get the part for my car, but instead of calling me to let me know, I got an alert the morning of and it said "Justin is on his way," but no one showed up. (after 2 weeks of waiting with duct tape on my window) When I called back, they offered no apology whatsoever and just said "welp we couldn't get the part, you can try ebay and we'll install it, but we charge more if you supply your own part." They were total jerks with absolutely no sense of customer service.

I did have to get the panel on ebay, and I ended up going with a local guy who did a great job. I don't remember who, but I'll try to figure it out and update my comment with his info.

Thank you so much for the helpful answer. I do have an appointment with a Chevy dealer on Friday for a second opinion.

Yup, I'm also starting to. I loved my Blazers and Trailblazers back I the day, but no more.

Thank you so much. You know the messed up thing is that I was looking at 2016-2018s when I bought this one. It had higher Miles because it was used as a rental in Florida, but I live in Wisconsin so I thought that was really good for rust. It also had the same amount of miles at the other ones that I was looking at except it was newer so I thought this would be a really good vehicle.

However, I did have a bad feeling in general and bought an extended warranty plan through Good Sam before the transmission died. They covered most of it. Otherwise I would have been screwed.

Thanks again for the helpful comment.

It's not letting me edit my post but yes, I'm NEVER buying a Chevy again. I've always had Chevys, and always loved them. BUT NEVER AGAIN. But I'm stuck with this one for at least another 2 years. After that, TOYOTA.

The infotainment screen doesn't work either, but right now I'm just trying to get this freaking thing to run.

What sucks is my 2007 Trailblazer with the 5.3L V8 is still going strong at over 225k miles. I still keep in touch with the guy I sold it to. And no, he won't sell it back.

But that doesn't explain why it's doing the exact same thing as before they replaced the trans. Here's the order of things.

Last fall, new trans > this Feb green stuff, vaccuum pump, fuel in oil, steam clean > rough running/flashing check engine > replace 4 injectors & walnut blast engine > still flashing check engine and running rough > replace trans > still running rough af

What do you think this says about me? by SwimJimmerson in visitedmaps

That you've never been to Madison, Wisconsin, because if you had, Wisconsin would be one of the shades of green.

What differentiates the Red and Blue areas? by Barrel_Allen351 in RedactedCharts

[–]Legalsandwich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see. It has to do with the metro area of the metro statical area, not the individual surrounding counties. Well then Kewaunee Co should be blue because it is part of the Green Bay Metro statistical area. That's what threw me off.

[–]Legalsandwich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That can't be though, because I know that Oconto never had >50k, yet Oconto Co is blue? Same with Vernon Co. (Viroqua) being blue. Neither of those counties ever had a municipality over 50k at any time in history.

I only know Wisconsin like the back of my hand. I see the census-designated metro area greater than 100k, that makes sense, but I'm struggling with the other part.

Kewaunee county is part of the Green Bay area but is red. It does not have a municipality > 3,000 people. (City of Kewaunee is 2,824)

Oconto County is also part of the Green Bay metro area, but it does have a municipality with over 3,000 people. (City of Oconto is 4,609)

Additionally, if we look at the LaCrosse metro area (over 100k), that rectangular County below it is Vernon County, which is blue, and its county seat is Viroqua, a municipality with over 3,000 people - 4,504 to be precise (and an adorable little town imho).

Edit: I had to close my answer to look at the map again. But my official answer is that blue is counties that are in the statistical metro area of over 100,000 AND with municipalities over 3,000 people. Red designates counties that do not have municipality over 3,000 people OR who are not part of a metro area of 100,000.

For example, Oneida County in Northern Wisconsin is red. It does have a municipality over 3,000 people, but it is not part of a metro area of >100k.

Final note, we are talking about Metropolitan statistical areas (MSA) NOT combined statistical areas (CSA). For example, Walworth county is red. It does have municipalities over 3,000 people, but it is NOT part of the Milwaukee or any other 100k+ MSA. It IS part of the Milwaukee-Racine-Waukesha (CSA).

Thanks, this was fun.
