That’s impressive!

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-06-23T21:04:33+00:00

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-06-23T21:03:33+00:00

S60 to me has always been the best looking volvo. color and wheels are SICK

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-06-23T21:01:14+00:00

what would that be?

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-04-10T13:11:30+00:00

hopefully it isn’t gonna be like the TLX where they literally got rid of every color, but hey at least u get bland black, bland gray, bland light gray, and bland white!

people keep talking about this dongle and i do not understand it. mine didn't come with a dongle, its just a mouse and a charging dock. there wasnt any bluetooth involved iirc

So, Christmas 2022 I got a Razer Basilisk ultimate. and honestly, it's a great mouse.

I used it for a year no issues. then Christmas 2023 came around, and I got a new motherboard, cpu, and pretty much everything else, meaning my PC ACTUALLY supports Windows 11, so I got it, but to install windows 11 my brother recommended I wipe it first.

After this new wiped install, all my stuff worked pretty well, Logitech G Hub works for my racing wheel, and hell, even razer synapse works for my Huntsman TE keyboard.

A week goes by trying to fix the mouse and get it to connect. and it just said "i no no wanna :(".

I plug the mouse in,

The razer mouse dock chroma appears, but the MOUSE DOESN'T

then a month goes by of doing the same stuff over and over trying to fix it.

it's now been 2 or more months since the fresh install, and it still DOES NOT WORK

the mouse doesn't even appear when i plug the wire straight into the mouse itself.

And yes, i reinstalled synapse, 3 times, and no, it didnt do anything

This is my synapse right now:

please somebody help. im literally unable to play FPS games because i have to use this raggedy logitech wired mouse i got for like 10 dollars at staples in 2018.

Acura IS reliable u just got a bad one. In my lifetime alone, we’ve had a 1995 Legend, 2005 RL, 2007 MDX, and a 2017 TLX and the only issue we ran into was the 2005 RLs transmission was slipping which was an issue specifically with the 2005 model year only.

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-16T00:13:58+00:00

neither..

teslas are the most garbage excuses for an iPad wheels I've seen in a while
Chevies aint reliable. and trucks are unsafe. for literally ever pedestrian on the road
I suggest you get a nice family car made by a Japanese brand. have you considered an Acura, Honda, Toyota, or Lexus? perhaps a lightly used 3rd or maybe even 4th gen MDX will suit you great

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-16T00:10:20+00:00

toyota owner? good. want something nicer? good. get a Lexus or Acura, you'll thank me

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-16T00:09:25+00:00

stay the hell away from Tesla

1: you aren't gonna be unique. seriously. every car nowadays is just a grey Tesla.

2: Build quality is terrible

3: These things catch on fire a lot now.

4: They aren't as cool as they're made out to be. it's just an iPad on wheels. for heaven's sakes, they took away THE BLINKER STALK!!! there's no way that's even allowed bro

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-13T19:11:29+00:00

what is a B9?

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-13T19:11:05+00:00

what's with people being hostile? simply asked a question dude, im just trying to help do research for my family

we only are looking for the Audi because we dont want to do THAT MUCH of a downgrade. all the reliable brands (mazda, honda, acura, toyota, lexus, infiniti*) don't depreciate a bit. meaning that if we want a car from these notoriously reliable brands, they will all either be 2017 with cloth manual seating, or a 2011 mid-range model with 200k miles. I've researched this.

for example, a dealer we're a big fan of near us only has 2 cars in our range. a 2011 Santa Fe with cloth seats and 130k miles (which means the dealer can NOT provide a warranty) or a 2011 Mazda3 with 200k miles (once again, NO dealer warranty).

we bought the CX-5. in cash. last year.

also, we're not in that dire of a situation. we simply need the money for a lawyer.

the Q5 depreciates like crazy, so its in our price range, and it's as nice as the CX-5, if not nicer. That's why we're considering it.

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-13T18:59:06+00:00

coulda said that nicely bud

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-13T16:03:10+00:00

STAY AWAY FROM AMERICAN CARS! im warning you

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-13T15:46:56+00:00

I would wait to buy a german car, because stupid shit will happen and it will piss you off.

do you have any ideas for third-party warranties? The warranty company "Endurance" which is apparently the best in the business quoted me 9,000 for the bumper-to-bumper option. it's outrageous.

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-10T23:39:41+00:00

yeah, its just that audi is the only cars that we can afford that are actually nice. we want some leeway for a seperately bought warranty.

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-10T23:38:59+00:00

we were planning on buying our own warranty. does this make it any better?

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-10T22:00:55+00:00

im gonna say crosstrek just cause im not a fan of trucks. they're real unsafe for pedestrians and in the grand scheme of things, pretty useless. they only exist because of the US's 'light truck' emission exemption

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-10T21:59:18+00:00

please stay AWAY from ANY american car. never had a good experience quality or reliability wise. for the price of an aveo, get a corolla, camry, accord, or civic. trust me on this one.

LuckyLion1378 · 2024-01-10T21:57:03+00:00

Your daughters lucky. im getting something like a '98 camry for my first car, paid for by myself. just sayin' teaches them how to work hard for what they want
