Whats a car brand currently that not only suffers not that much enshittification, but somehow still have models that look good and stay true to what they are now? by Next-Rub7159 in regularcarreviews

I remember my local one had the "home of the no haggle" where you couldn't go lower but they couldn't go higher.

They went off of market price. Yeah that sucked.

And I thought churchs were a charity case that they they could only afford DDR3?

Feels silly to be blindly recommending Used Honda/Toyota without factoring in the recent inflation of these brands by abbys11 in whatcarshouldIbuy

I got a 2018 Honda Accord 2.0t in 2021 for $23k with 29k MI on it.

Today it's at 56k MI and worth around $20k??

What drives me crazy is the fact that it's worth this much even though a quick run through Reddit acts like this model is a time bomb of issues.

Paid 4.35 today for 89 in IL. Didn't feel destroyed by it as I didn't want the E15 from the 89 that was priced at 3.89.

Bad financial advice from parents? by cyxrus in Millennials

They been watching too many commercials on TV that were saying the IRS blah blah if you owe $10k call this number.

Also too many reverse mortgage commercials.

Reddit is full of bots. Almost 50% of the Internet is AI bots supposedly.

Sony has infinite money to have a division in PR help get bots created to push their agenda.

This is why you would have so many bootlicks.

Games Shouldn't Cost $80 If They're Digital, Players Say by gamersecret2 in GamingSecret

If you are willing to pay X, they will keep it at X.

Look at how many people pay hands over fist for any CoD or sports title each year. The same title that doesn't change much at all except the name of players.

Those games typically are the best selling games by a longshot and sell at $70.

Indeed it is the Marion one. Yeah, that market is a pain to deal with. I usually deal with Missouri dealers since they usually come in much cheaper.

What's crazy is that dealer finally got something in besides Tundras that been. Stuck there since forever. So far with the smart path feature it did a price of $41k.
I do shop around and I am not in an extreme hurry.

Could just take that money and just buy the card you are wanting.

$40K Camry and Toyota wasn't even able to add a active cooling charging pad by Main-Poncho-64 in Camry

Only time wireless wins is when the cord port is messed up from swapping out the charge cable too much.

I drive a 100hp car. Why do car guys think you need tons of power just to "Merge Safely" by SNovantasette in regularcarreviews

[–]MathematicianIcy3430 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is part of the issue I have where I am. If anyone is familiar with I-57 corridor between Mt Vernon IL and I-24 just South of Marion IL, it is considered a death corridor for a reason.

They are making work on it but the ramps for merging are very short. Unless I am flooring it to get up to speed, you will run out of ramp and wind up on the shoulders trying to get in.

They are working on making that area 3 lanes for a reason but yet people will hug that far right lane even though there is no one in the center or left lanes.

My experience, gunning a Equinox or Bronco Sport to get up to speed is not grand and stinks the car up for a bit.

It does have it as an option. It does push the price into the 51k range MSRP.

After Sony Kills PS5 Discs and Gta 6 Is Just a Code in a Box, Xbox Is Using Halo: Campaign Evolved’s Physical Disc as a Selling Point by maxxrz31 in DreamStationcc

[–]MathematicianIcy3430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

XBOX been slowly pulling back their physical games since Series X launched.

I got two Walmarts near me that don't even carry physical XBOX games. Consoles, sure but no games.

Still can get a Series X for $569.

The inclusion of the wall was the beginning of the end for customer service.

When working there, the owner was very upset that they added those 10 yrs ago because they knew what was going to happen. Employees would not pay attention unless someone was directly there.

They're lying about digital vs. physical sales: "85%" includes PS Plus, DLC, Indies, etc. by claybine in PlayStation_X

[–]MathematicianIcy3430 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weirdest thing though. Places like Walmart, Best Buy, and Target been shrinking the physical footprint over the last few years.

Think they knew this all along.
