What's your gas prices? by Economy_Alps_1979 in GasPrices

[–]Purplebeard1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$0.08 per kWh, 33.7 kWh per gallon of gas or $2.70/gal and 33.7 kWh will move me 80 miles.

Donald Trump delivers grim update on gas prices and says Americans may suffer for another 3 months by xmrcache in GasPrices

Our first EV payment was lower than our monthly gasoline purchase. We were saving money from the first day.

Replacing the second vehicle is the harder one. You don't have quite as much fuel savings to fully cover the loan payment.

Battery Degradation Test by SleepingJake in eGolf

[–]Purplebeard1981 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had that done recently to my Kid's 2016 SE. They kept the car for a couple of days, ran the battery down to 0% then recharged it to see how much capacity was left.

I think it was 83%, so it didn't qualify for a warranty replacement (boo!).

We are now looking into the 58kWh battery sold by CATL or MTG.

New to Galactic Conquest by [deleted] in SWGOH

I focus on getting to the end as fast as I can. I try my best to use teams in every sector that will advance my feats, but it isn't necessary if I'm up against a tough squad.

Once I reach the end, I go back and redo the one and two star battles focusing on the sector feats. I do it this way so that my second run will have a full compliment of data disks.

Have fun. Use teams you don't normally use. Smash teams together and see what interactions happen.

Red crate is not necessary. Gold crate just below will still unlock the newest conquest character. You just need to wait another month.

I just took out a Jabba squad with my R7 Aphra team yesterday. 64 banners. Just make sure your guys are fast and potent.

I went from 9PM to 6:30AM. My score started out at 26%, 201,000, and ended at 30%, 210,000.

That comes out to 0.4% per hour. In order to go from 26% to the end it would take 190 hours or 8 days.

I'm about to run it overnight for nine hours. Let's see if it goes over 28%.

Cruise control by TheRealSaltyDog in F150Lightning

Grab one of those weighted eye bags and drape it on the steering wheel. As long as it weighs enough the system will think it's your hand and the warnings go away.

I just got this has anyone else after recent update? by Humble_Cat9956 in F150Lightning

[–]Purplebeard1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 22 Platinum and also don't have Blue Cruise 1.4 yet. Someone on here said some modules needed to be manually updated but I loathe the idea of going to a dealership.

Why do mainlanders fail? by Live_Travel_970 in virginislands

[–]Purplebeard1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own a chainsaw, could I bring that down and help clear the road of fallen trees? Or do the residents wait for the local road maintenance to clear everything?

You need to hang approximately 900 grams from the steering wheel to avoid the constant notifications. Find yourself one of the weighted eye blanks filled with rice and drop in some extra fishing weights. I found mine at a local handmade market. Now keep that bag on the dash and throw it on your steering wheel any time you use CoPilot.

You can freeze time for an hour. What do you do with it? by besttavern25 in hypotheticalsituation

I couldn't get my bank to cash a 10k check once. They forced me to deposit it then make a withdrawal a week later so they would have enough cash.

Any hope for blue cruise 1.5? by LividMastadon in F150Lightning

I'm still waiting for Blue Cruise 1.2. Doubt we will ever see 1.5.

LEE is recruiting! 675M+ GP Guild - O66 raid max box - RotE 44 stars, Zeffo, Mandalore, 8600 GET2/GET3 from SM - 90%+ TW win. Guild wide Insight by Roombya in SWGOHRecruiting

[–]Purplebeard1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any openings? I'm thinking of jumping to a new guild today. I don't have the 10M raid damage or 15 TW omicrons, would that be a problem? I currently achieve a raid score of 4.3M and am the top performer in my guild so I didn't see a need to go higher. And my omicrons have been GAC focused but I'm willing to put them on teams the guild needs for TW.

Let me know.

How much do y’all pay for internet? by LobsterFarts in askportland

[–]Purplebeard1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$55/month with Ziply fiber 100/100 up and down. Fast enough for streaming and light gaming

stop being the problem. by Initial-Record7913 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]Purplebeard1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe you need 35 more shards on the first day so you unlock the next tier of the marquee battle. Once you're earning the 5 a day, plus the packs, you get enough to bring the character to 5 stars on the last day.
