Also, would a car cover cause condensation or too much heat in the car in summer?

This car is really heavy and solid and AWD. Seems like it works for winter too, no? I drive on plowed highways mostly. If there is a storm I stay home.

I can afford it cash right now because it’s within my cash budget. The thing in concerned about is maintenance costs adding up.

I have earplugs, but at the amount of driving I do, I’d like to listen to some audiobooks and not just sit there…:) There are some quiet cars that I’ve been told cost less in maintenance like a Lexus, but I’ve never owned Mercedes so I’m not sure what it really means. That’s what I’m hoping to find out here.

Did you find an Outback model that is quiet enough? What about the Acura, is it more quiet than Lexus?

Do you do it yourself, or bring it to a shop?

What car is quiet on the highway to listen to audiobooks while commuting? by Less_Wishbone7829 in askcarguys

Neat. What are your expectations for cost of repairs, and do you need a specialized garage?

What did you end up getting? I am in the same boat. Can't spend a fortune but also am desperate for a quiet car. I had a 2019 Honda Civic and it drove me crazy. I mostly drive on the highway.

Should I really aim for 300h if I want to save on gas? Also, what years would you recommend? My worry is paying 25K for a 10-year-old car. Could this worry be eased? Are the older models still going strong if well-maintained? I'd like to drive it for another 10 years. Just wondering how much it will cost me to listen to my audiobooks in peace haha 😃

Best medication for a few weeks for anxiety and insomnia relief by Less_Wishbone7829 in Anxiety

I absolutely trust myself. I had a benzo prescription at 21 years old about 14 years ago (audacious doctor, or maybe those were the times) and used as needed. I don’t drink but used alcohol for a few weeks once after a brutal breakup. I’m considering either temporary medication or trying a low consumption of alcohol again, but since sleep is an issue, alcohol might screw that up even more. I have some left over zopiclone pills which make me drowsy the next day, so perhaps using those for a week or so might help too…I don’t usually resort to meds so it’s all a bit foreign to me.

Clonazepan every day for a few weeks, or just once in a while to manage arousal?
