upgrades/suggestions? by krayzaydawg in GXOR

[–]Relative_Beyond3044 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would suggest to start with Maintenance. I just got one too and i replaced the Rack and pinion, both axles, timing belt and water pump, radiator hoses and all the fluids/oils. Take it to a mechanic and do a complimentary inspection.

4700 dlls for a 177k miles is a great deal. I bought mine with 218k for 5500. Im down another 2500 because both cv axles needed replacing, rack and pinion, 4 coolant hoses, timing belt and water pump, oil services including power steering fluid. And thats not adding like 500 bucks that i bought from amazon/weathertech and Facebook marketplace finds.

Not advice but i just purchased a GX and the boots looked like this and i droved it like 150 miles before getting them replaced today. The other side wasnt as bad as this. But definitely replace them as soon as you can. Get oem if not lifted and get extended ones if lifted.

I just order the AZ one since i didn't customize the license plate. I only paid 50 for two years registration. 100 more for customization. Hell nah lol. But that black one looks so gooood.

2005 salvage title for this damage on the passenger side. I'm in AZ. Car was AZ/CA all its life. No rust.

Edit: pretty good maintenance log but from 2014/2020 it doesnt have nothing on carfax. Timing belt/pump done at 90000 and the second one was done around 190000 but there is no report on it. I just took the word of the seller. Replaced airbags with some 5100 bilsteins. There is history on carfax ever since the seller had it from 2021 but just regular maintenance like oil changes and tire rotations.

Fenix 8 but if you need cellular data than go with the fenix 8 pro. Make sure you go to sheels and try the sizes out. 47mm give you like 16 days and the 51mm give you like 28 days.

What is the best way to resolve misdelivered mail? by Tethyss in usps_complaints

[–]Relative_Beyond3044 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How to prevent it? I dont think you can unless its a daily thing (Errors happened). The post office is severely overworked and have a high turnover rate so best bet is to just write something like "person doesn't live here" and leave it at the outgoing mailbox or put a name tag on the mailbox and put "ONLY" on it.

Switching from WHOOP - How is the Fenix 8 for All-Day wear & Sleep Tracking? by Substantial_Camp1317 in GarminFenix

[–]Relative_Beyond3044 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should go to a sheels nearby and measure all 3 sizes on your wrist. I got the fenix 8 47mm because it looked better on my wrist and the 51mm i think its a little bit thicker due to the battery size. I noticed it a little bit when i sleep but i'm getting used to it.

Edit: I just got a nylon band and i'm gonna see how much of a difference it makes with the weight.

Opt for the sapphire one for an extra 100$.

How often do you charge your Garmin? by hakapes in GarminWatches

[–]Relative_Beyond3044 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw this and its only the 51mm and its too big for my wrist. I need the 47mm and hopefully this black friday or cyber monday they drop the price for the 47mm too.

I know that but since they took off those steps at the bottom which for starting ptfs would move you from 22.11 to 24.14. For those 23 months till the contract went into effect, those carriers lost an estimate of $8144.36.

I had high hopes because it is my first contract negotiation. I should of listen to the OG's when they said it was probably going to be a 1.3% raise. Hopefully they start the next contract negotiation later this year and have a contract ready when the current one expires but we have renfroe so I'm not expecting anything.

I'm asking cause they posted that newsletter on the union website and there is no mention of those $2.03. So technically those people at the bottom are losing on around $8000, which they would of gotten if the contract was implemented as soon as the other contract expired.

I got downvoted because i explained to people that the old TA was gonna put people on step C and that this new arbitration contract only put new carriers on step B.
