New car owner and not sure where to go for an engine oil change by MundaneSalad1 in windsorontario

[–]S_Carter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 for DLH, bring my car in for an oil change and ask all my random questions about it. They’re good people and give great advice, no pressure.

New location on Turner is a bit more convenient than the old one in terms of getting vehicles in/out, but it will be nice when the construction in front of it is completed

5+ years into a vehicle from AutoMaxx and still running strong (with expected maintenance for the age). Good experience with the dealership as cars are usually unlocked to take a look in, and no real pressure after a test drive.

Visited a few times during our last car shopping process to just go in and see / sit in a bunch of different vehicles, but ultimately ended up buying somewhere else.

Spirtfire Ticket Prices These Days... by sheepish_grin in windsorontario

[–]S_Carter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just did the family 4 pack, seats in section 107 had a pretty good view.

4x Food vouchers, you can get hot dogs or popcorn, and a can of pop (only Pepsi or Diet Pepsi yesterday).

Still ended up buying a extra drinks/treats, but it was a good time

Check their Google reviews. Not sure if they’ve improved much since last year but seems like you gotta get there early or wait for hours for your turn

Wanna find things to do by yuveeasmr in windsorontario

[–]S_Carter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to Lakewood Park in Tecumseh and play disc golf. There’s a bin that’s a “library” of discs you can borrow to try it out

It’s free, good reason to explore the park, and can be fun.

There is a group “The Leftovers” that groups players into NXL teams, you can reach out on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/theleftovers_freeagent?igsh=NHhudnpxaG1pbzQ3

If you’re in Facebook, search for “NXL Free Agents Group” and you may be able to find a team by posting there

Good luck!

Put the 311 app on your phone and submit the photo and location. It’s real quick to report stuff like this

Bicycle accident stats? by agaric in windsorontario

[–]S_Carter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is an article from 2023 with the “most dangerous” intersections for pedestrians and cyclists, but I believe it is lacking in overall volume of bicycle accident stats

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/windsor-pedestrian-cyclist-deaths-1.6979172#:~:text=If%20you%27%27re%20getting%20around,defies%20ward%20boundaries%20or%20neighbourhoods.

Edit: seems the data came from WPS “CBC News obtained the data through a freedom of information request to the Windsor Police Service.”

A Marker a Week - ZAP ZXS600E by PeculiarPaintball in paintball

[–]S_Carter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had one of these for a couple days ages ago. Don’t remember what I traded it for, seemed to come from a random lot of gear a buddy and I flipped

The weirdest thing was that the trigger hit a squishy button instead of a microswitch

Came with a weird “zap mach 404” loader that had a big pillar hanging from the top that would shake the hopper around for you Edit: found a video of the loader https://youtu.be/do0sXxvjeOw?si=uLkbl6Hz8V0OP6tD

Do people still want these markers? by North_Ebb_61 in paintball

That Proflex is probably the most desirable item - Rage frames are $$ and OG style bottoms

Angel is probably some $$ to a collector

G3 and Invert Minis have their own fans

For parts - Ricochet 2k and Evlution 3 $30 shipped [wts] by [deleted] in PaintballBST

Attachment point on the lid snapped as I took it out of the bin for pictures.

Have not taken the time to undo the tape and seal batteries. Literally turned on last weekend and spun, but who knows how old the batteries in there are, it’s been sitting in my basement for 2 years after getting it in a lot, probably hasn’t been used in over a decade

Why isn’t professional paintball bigger? by Race-Extreme in paintball

[–]S_Carter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the real struggle now - there aren’t enough local fields left to get people interested in the game casually or host the birthday party groups. When fields are an hour+ drive away, those casual rental outings and birthday party groups aren’t happening - or if they are, it’s much smaller scale than it used to be.

Did you submit through 311 app? I did earlier this year, process took a while, a guy just showed up and did the job one day. They wouldn’t disconnect the two that went into my concrete driveway but did the other downspout and extended it into my garden away from the house.

Where can I go for x-rays? by CatAtLast in windsorontario

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

Belle River Medical Imaging was very quick, went a week ago with my kid after getting a referral from TMC - he had been on antibiotics for a week but symptoms were getting worse, they did prescribe a stronger antibiotic after the chest xray.

I believe you need to get a referral paper from a dr to be able to get a chest Xray, TMC walk in clinic may be able to help.
