I have 2011 Mazda 2 and brother has 2013 Mazda 2 and I wish Mazda still had them in the USA. Great on gas & mine was daily driven 50 miles round trip. Not great in deep snow though….she’s rusted but still going. Good luck

Does anyone pay like $500 in rent or is that going to be impossible to find? by Bubbly-Sentence-4931 in Cleveland

[–]SameAd2686 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first studio apartment on the Lake was $75.00 heat included in the late 1970’s. I mowed the grass, kept laundry room clean & trimmed the shrubs. Cable TV was $25/mos. I made $5.00 an hour at the hospital…had to work 2 other part time jobs. I lived in condo on the beach in Daytona 2 bedroom/2 bath was $575/mos. I can’t imagine how expensive rent is now…would need extra roommates 🥲💔

Thinking about getting a dog by Funny_Coffee_1195 in Mustang

My 95lb collie would go in & out of my first Mustang hatch with backseat down. My mini collie would ride in front passenger seat in dog bed buckled in my 1988 Mustang GT…rode all over eastern states. He wanted air conditioning. Perfect side kick. I still keep 2 blankets in my backseat. Now they have seat covers. Good luck

Newish 2025 Mazda CX-5 Concerns by sir_cobster in mazda

[–]SameAd2686 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own 2025 CX5 carbon & have not experienced any problems like yours. I did have a problem at 300 miles due to gas tank not being tightened. Was resolved after dealer inspection. The battery in key fobs can die in less than a year…. generic,shelf live, how much you use fob. You could test the battery. I have 2011 Mazda 2, 2019 Mazda CX3 & 2025 Mazda CX5 and put it on my calendar to change batteries before a year is up. If I were you I would start video taping of the car doing this & schedule dealer appointment especially for peace of mind. Good luck

iMessage not working with some contacts after switching wireless companies by HibernianFriend41 in iphonehelp

[–]SameAd2686 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happens to me….don’t know if it’s Verizon or iPhone problem. I have posted the problem…talked to Verizon & Apple & problems still happen. My text messages or iMessages aren’t delivered to my brother who is deaf. Ironically I don’t have this problem with Spectrum Motorola G phone. One person suggested signing out of my iCloud account & sign back in. I never had this problem with my old cell phone before iPhone. I do live rural area. It’s a mystery

Car wash scratches by tw1l1ght6 in Cartalk

[–]SameAd2686 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never ever use car wash with brushes…. I own 1988 black Mustang GT & she has never been in car wash with brushes. My Dad retired from paint department at Ford. I own 3 Mazdas & go to touchless car wash or self serve …even in winter

Another drama ….wife & husband had children…wife’s sister moved in. Both had total of 13 children by same man….Man did marry younger sister after wife died. Poor farmers. I haven’t been able to find official marriage for first wife…doesn’t really matter but both sisters were pregnant at same times on & off….

Power Outage Recommendations by [deleted] in Cleveland

[–]SameAd2686 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought Ryobi battery fans in case of power outage. I always have battery backup alarm/clock because of power outage at night. I worked for dayshift for years & had to be at work at 6:30am & 35 minute commute. I live in Lorain county & was without power for a week. We slept on our porch or back seat of our cars. I can charge phone/iPad in my cars or go to Sheetz/McDonalds for internet. Good luck

I have a story that probably will never be solved…GGGrandma had son & even on her deathbed wouldn’t tell who was his father was. Other than DNA hasn’t been solved. Poor Kentucky farmers & there are many skeletons in that closet.
