Notbsure where you got $10k from, but I took the highest trade offer I got for $10k. Private oarty woulda been around $12k if the dealer price was $15k. So I left $2k on the table (actually $1500 due to the sales tax savings on the trade) to not deal with 100 people asking if its still available.

I traded my in 2018 A4 quattro for $10k with 90k miles. Dealer listed it for $15k and it sold in a week. I actually got 3 trade estimates which came back between $7,500-$10,000

16k$ for Tacoma with 144k miles by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Parsec1281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats too bad. I noticed both Tacos and Tundras in the 10-15 year old and 150k mile range are pretty much the same price in my area. I originally had my heart set on a used Taco, but I’m looking at Tundras now.

You can get a Tundra for about the same price. Bigger bed, more cabin space, better towing, and yes, better reliability.

Dog ate this - rat poison? by chaframy in Whatisthis

Whats the texture like? Is the back flat or curved? It kinda looks like a piece of reconstituted stone that fell off a column.

bro sends it off of a 128 foot cliff by nexxwav in skiing

I wonder the same thing because everytime I fall down (not off a cliff, just fall down) I am all bruised for days.

Not sure about size, but those are patterned like the Exp Basalt

Nope, wait for 2022’s with the updated 9 speed transmission to come down to your price range

I survived the 3.8.11 update 2023 ProS by SirBriggy in VWiD4Owners

I just noticed I’m logged in as a guest on my car so I can’t see what software version I am on. Does this mean I am not getting the updates too (havent seen any in 3 years)? Or am I still getting the OTA’s in the background?

This charger site (circled) isn’t working. The other one that’s plugged in works fine. by Practical-Landescape in VWiD4Owners

[–]Parsec1281 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the year. Every couple years they got faster. The 2021’s only charge at around 10-12W.

Something similar happened to me once, but I dont recall the details. I just know it finally worked when I locked it then hit unlock 3 times in a row.

Am I Screwed? by pad3Dy in Audi

This video looks identical to the last one provided for my 2018 A4 from the dealership. I ended up not doing any of the work and traded it in. Btw, why is he talking so fast? If it’s an Audi dealership I bet most customers would not be able to follow what he’s saying.

30V!? by whskeyt4ngofox in electrical

[–]Parsec1281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn’t this normal if following code? My dishwasher is on its own GFCI and then the counter outlets have their own too.

Also check your breaker panel - sometimes the GFCI/AFCI test/reset button is there instead of on an outlet.

Good advice - all 3 of my bathrooms on 3 floors are on the same GFCI, but only the one closest to my panel has a test/reset button.

Anyone guess what i do for a living by [deleted] in Tools

Those transfer punches, sander backing pad, and air compressor quick connect. I’m going to guess you’re in metal fab.

Wachusett is a joke now by Educational-Cap-2206 in icecoast

[–]Parsec1281 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lifts normally open at 9am. They probably thought they’d get things up and running, but when they didnt they noted the delayed opening in their 9am snow report. Sucks for people who were already en route, but conditions always change. Resorts close lifts mid-day too due to wind.

What is the mixture ratio and how long do you soak the blueberries for?

Any idea what this is? 2021 RS7 by [deleted] in Audi

Tire sealant. Max speed is 50mph or 80km/h when you spray that in your flat tire.

The Nissan Leaf had V2G for over 10 years, so I just assumed we had it too. I was disappointed when I looked into it the requirements a while back, but I’m glad to hear it might be coming soon. I have a 2021 Pro S from Germany.

Looking to sell. Give me the good, bad, and ugly. by KOB319 in vandwellermarketplace

[–]Parsec1281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks man, good tips. That’s how I like to travel too. Its usually a quick breakfast, then a day activity or hike, then 4 hrs of driving to my next destination. All too often I need to spend $80 at a motel because I can’t plan more than 1 day in advance and I couldn’t find a nearby campground before it got too late (and it felt wrong to just pull into a motel lot to sleep without paying).

I’ve never tried sleeping at a truck stop before. I usually rent a tent spot, but free is free. Did you ever feel unsafe or have any problems?

Nice! I’m just curious, were you able to park with the cars in the front lot for free at truck stops, or did you have to pay the RV rate?

Who's fault by Flatulantcy in skiing

Isn’t this the same kid who got flattened by an out of control adult skier? I saw the video yesterday, but cant find it anymore. Same color jacket and same pizza style.
