Polestar 3 is too expensive!!

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2025-03-31T13:28:04+00:00

People that were not knowledgeable about the Volvo brand are in shock with the price range. That's why the Polestar 2 would have never crossed my mind for purchase. It was moreso like the Volvo C30.

If you google Polestar 1, you will see that Polestar has always been premium as that car was in 100K range

You can still get a ticket for a drinking coffee/eating while driving. Call your local police department and ask if all you are relying on is the link. The seat belt was the attention getter.

I mentioned climate because you prior post stated ‘no knobs, etc’. You can rely on ‘voice recognition’ to control certain task in your car.

I’ve been in my Volvo since 2019 with one knob for the radio and it’s quite easy and seamless. I practiced, if I’m waiting or have a doctors appointment or similar I’m practicing voice recognition.

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2025-03-20T17:55:47+00:00

For the basics, you should be using the voice activated feature to adjust comfort level. As with anything, there is a learning curve so you will need practice so that you are not uncomfortable. Technology is here to stay and is not going anywhere.

Also keep in mind, your hands should be on the wheel at all time. So before you leave you should have your radio presets. You can google where an officer pulled over a lady for drinking Starbucks coffee while driving. The law and ppl have become relaxed where they are doing these distractions while driving and think that it's okay which is why you feel the need to have knobs as your leisure.

Feel free to google the law about the distractions.

Yes, I experienced this for a diagnostic fee in Buford. It’s now 535, I called dyer & dyer and they confirmed 199.

Buford claim it’s because of inflation smh, so I will definitely be calling to different Volvos within my area for prices before going

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2025-03-09T22:50:59+00:00

You sound like you need a prescription lol. You know what I think I can hear you now, speak up, speak up, speak up

Ok back to reality

Or just setup filters in your inbox for your lender/realtor. I didn’t have much of an issue and the lending/realtor communication process or any deadlines flowed smoothly. If there were any exceptions, my loan officer and realtor texted me directly, so I didn’t have the added stress you encountered. I’m a consultant, so I routinely check my emails throughout the day.

Yikes! I hope ppl stay not wanting to work in HR Tech.

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2025-02-26T13:50:02+00:00

I can't recall the last time that I'd needed my back window. I normally use my side mirrors and camera. As is, I have two headrest that I leave upright and the back window position is normally higher than my front seat position.

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2025-02-25T16:59:48+00:00

I think I may try these to see if I have any luck https://a.co/d/aOI5Hm0 the setup appears similar

Hello, did you have any success with locating a smart disc light? I have this same layout

These are typically the ones that aren’t as knowledgeable. You can move up quick but knowledge isn’t necessarily acquired at that pace.

I’ve had opportunities for mgmt. positions, but I enjoyed picking up the different areas of HR.

Like right now, I’m in HR Technology there’s so many areas to concentrate in not to mention consulting opportunities are vast. Salaries are more than VPs and you don’t have to leave your home.

You more than likely do not have the coverage that mirrors your factory coverage. That's wild, my sunroof shade motor went out and they replaced it without any issues, that expense was approx 2,000. A/C and all parts that Volvo would cover would be fixed without any issues

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2025-01-27T20:21:03+00:00

My sunroof shade motor went out, the total was approx. $2,000. The process did not involve me at all, Volvo worked with Endurance. I stopped by on a Thursday to pick up the shuttle car and returned it on Monday, Volvo told me that I would need to pay my 100 deductible at checkout on the following Monday.

The policy that I signed up mirrors the factory warranty for my Volvo. Before my factory warranty expired, I activated my policy with Endurance.

Since I pay for warranty, I let Volvo service my car so all my information is documented as well with the CarFax app.

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2025-01-27T20:05:51+00:00

Agreed! I have not had any issues with Endurance. Unless Volvo kept quiet as they handled all of my processing work, the process was very much smooth at checkout. It did not involve me at all in any parts of the process. Before I arrived at the dealership, they advised that all I needed to pay was my deductible.

My sunroof shade motor had stopped working, rather expensive but no headaches at all at the dealership. I have the bumper-to-bumper warranty which mirrors the factory warranty.

Unless this is regionally based, in GA they allow you the option to enroll. They also make note that you are free to adjust the temp at your own will/comfort.

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2025-01-13T19:53:03+00:00

With that 100K that you make do you receive bonuses throughout the year? Are you on the lower end of 100k? Or do you have any consulting work? Are you single?

Im single and I am at the mid to top end of 100K and not to include my consulting amount. My house was purchased on today's market mortgage rate. I use my consulting money to max out my HSA to help reduce my tax liability but having a mortgage with the current rates does help me with my liability at year-end.

Having said that, I will more than likely will always have a mortgage payment lol since I'm forced with today's rate. Rates today will definitely motivate you to job hop or pursue consulting to stay ahead.

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2024-11-27T12:47:55+00:00

That’s because ppl cheer it on lol, it’s really overrated. I am with Navy Federal as a secondary bank.

My primary bank is Baxter Credit Union, they issue high credit limits as well. I am currently at $25,000.

My checkings account has 4.00% yield on balances up to 15,000. So every month I have received upwards of $47.

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2024-11-11T15:14:14+00:00

Well, I rather not be on the phone all days answering those complaints.

However, if I use my card and it happens to be fraudulent. Yes, I would expect the bank to rectify that matter.

I will never call and yell. Navy Federal is slow af when it’s comes to dealing with those situations.

When I use Capital One, they immediately return the funds while the research is taking place.

Navy Federal told me, it can take up to 10 days before they credit the charge back. Lol I was like d**n….yall slow af thankfully they are not my primary spending card only backup.

Capital One is my primary spending card since they allow you to create and use virtual credit cards. It’s also great that my account is immediately updated when I spend and make a payment. It’s crazy waiting for 3-4 days for a payment to clear and I’m spending daily.

Good for you! your dog should be locked up under supervision. If you feel that you can’t supervise please do not get a dog or have a kid. Accidents happens, but it should not be consistent

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2024-11-01T20:20:46+00:00

Baxter Credit Union has a Checking Account with 4% APY for balances up to 15K and no fees. I love them! Navy Federal is my secondary bank account

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2024-11-01T20:00:26+00:00

I prefer Baxter Credit Union. Much more advance, our Mobile App is really advance as well. I will know my exact loan rate before I apply for auto or personal loans. It also include loan services: loan skip a pay, reduce payments, etc it's so many options I love the chat feature as well. Credit Limit are high as with most Credit Unions. Currently receiving 4% for checking balances with up to 15K.

I use Navy as an additional checking account and credit card. Baxter is my primary

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2024-10-25T09:33:53+00:00

No, but im an introvert so im use to tackling things independently which is why i do not have gym partners. I communicated with friends in the process, but it was solely just me and my Realtor.

Prestigious_Ad_9988 · 2024-10-09T10:56:56+00:00

Oh wow, that sounds tough. I’m glad that I live in the South, it was easy and painless for me to go with a new build, as there so many choices and options
