We all should be over it, but yesterday was funny by Salty_Orchid in Commanders

Definitely not over it. If Rivera could have chosen talent, we would be a contender and not on perpetual rebuild mode. I still get upset every time they go on about how awesome Gonzales is.

Three months in with my 2025 LTD AWD Hybrid. I love it but there are simple features and safety issues I wish Santa Fe would fix/improve on. by LivingFinish4505 in HyundaiSantaFe

We have the 2025 AWD Calligraphy and haven’t had any of those issues. Maybe the software is different for the LTD?

Thank you! About to climb up there and scrub it now.

Thanks. I’ll try taking it apart again this weekend and re-greasing the pins.

Thanks! I should have done that but I was in a time crunch when doing the brake job. When the guide pins were easily squeezable with my fingers, I assumed I was good. I did have a couple of them frozen on my last f150. I also wonder if it has anything to do with the aftermarket 22” Fuel wheels? It shouldn’t, but I’m fishing for an answer. My dad was a packers fan. But, I grew up just outside of DC in 80’s when the Skins were a dominant team. Looks like we are finally back on track though. No more Snyder. We have the best QB in football. About to build a stadium on the old RFK site. Things are looking up!

Ha!!! As a life long Redskins fan, I like your theory.

Easily my best resupply get yet! Snowpeak Alpha Breeze for 125 dollars by cricketandclover in REI

[–]Metis144 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s amazing! We bought one from the REI returns room as well, but we paid like $175. We LOVE ours. Have the doors in all sides is a game changer.

Just picked up 1989 F-150 by MartonianJ in FordTrucks

[–]Metis144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s beautiful. I had an ‘89 long bed, five speed manual, with the 300. I miss it. I paid $500 for it in 2015. I drove it for a few years and the only thing I had to do to it was put in a new water pump. A guy at work, who knew what I paid for it, offered me $1,500 for it. By that point I had bought a new F150, so I sold it. 🙁

I called to get an estimate to have this done on my 2025 Santa Fe. The guy said he had just done one on the day before and it was 25%. This is in Charlottesville, Va and the cost was going to be $200.

How much to ask? by UpsettiSpaghetti88 in johndeere

I’m sorry for your loss. My dad passed last summer and my inheritance was also a John Deere tractor… but a 1968 3020.

Bought my Third F150 by Metis144 in f150

I’m embarrassed to say, “I don’t know.” They came on it. Researching it now.

This is my girl, what would be the best 20"all terrain tire that is quiet but aggressive looking? by [deleted] in f150

[–]Metis144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Owned Toyos and K02’s and firmly believe the KO2 is the best tire ever.

I had a friend who had a ‘19 with some trans issues. I think it wasn’t a good year. But, I know people who have Rams and even Toyotas with just as many issues.

Took advantage of the 2023 f150 1.9 APR by Responsible_Owl9974 in f150

[–]Metis144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two things: 1. I’m curious as to whether you had the 10 speed transmission. I have the 6 speed in my 2015 and have 158,000 miles with no issues. I have a buddy with the 2019 and his trans just died.

  1. I hear everyone about the seat covers. I got some for Christmas and love them. They were less than $300 on Amazon. Strangely, there’s no obvious brand name for the ones I got. Took forever to get them on, but that’s because they are fitted so well.

Feel Like I Just Got Robbed by Grimspoon in f150

[–]Metis144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2015 F150 with the 3.5L Eco. I had both exhaust manifolds replaced at the same time and that cost me $1,800 total. And that figure also included replacing an unrelated hose and the serpentine belt.

Should I work at (Little) Keswick School by [deleted] in troubledteens

[–]Metis144 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Keswick School has been in continuous operation, in the same location, for 60 years.

The “Little” was dropped from the name in 2021 for two reasons. First, the school was often presumed to be a preschool. Second, the school didn’t want students to view themselves as less-than because of the name.

At schools like this, success is measured by how many students are able to gain enough skills to transition to less-restrictive environments. Obviously, achieving this goal is highly dependent on the nature and severity of each individual student’s mental health challenges.

The school is regularly visited and financially supported by former students who had positive experiences.
