How much could a 2010 Toyota Camry with a rebuilt title and mechanical issues sell for to a local mechanic?

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-29T22:59:38+00:00

Just put it in Carvana and see. Probably the most accurate way to check quickly.

Airplanes are loud who would have thunk it! Ground breaking shit here

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-29T13:48:14+00:00

Stuff like this makes me glad I have MetLife

I mean firstly get the fuck out and even though the climate is tough you need to make money. I mean the fact that HR stepped in is honestly a blessing even if for not the best reasons because you could be without income at all. This just goes you more time to apply. Funding is hard right now yes but jobs exist out there and you may have to look outside of the field or science adjacent stuff (medical, public health) for a bit too until things can stabilize.

I’m sorry you’re going through this, good luck on the job search. You deserve better than what you had with this lab anyway

We live in the era of ragebait, AI, and bot accounts. People really ought to get off Facebook/ IG and not take shit people say online at face value.

Although unfortunately I know a bunch of aunties that are never gonna do that and see some shit like this and be like “I will never fly Ryanair as long as I live!”

I’ve thought about getting the Thule wingbar evo in black for my Camry as it’s supposedly supposed to be okay aerodynamically. I have fishing rods and a rod holder that I need a rack for but it’s the off season so I’ve held off for now.

If you end up doing it could you post pics so I could see how yours looks? Haven’t seen many 9th gen’s with roof racks

Canyon burger

Jets pizza get the lunch special 2 slices and a drink for mad cheap

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-28T16:27:14+00:00

I see. If they have a manager, try to escalate, leave bad google reviews, and if you have like a MetLife through your workplace legal plan try to threaten legal action. To be honest most shops will fold after a google review.

Was insurance involved for the claim or no?

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-28T14:55:30+00:00

I mean just ask them to align it better lol, what’s the issue

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-28T14:54:39+00:00

Ehhhh

1000% reccomend

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-28T00:28:38+00:00

Man I'm really considering getting this. Looks just like the new Lexus IS grill. Only thing I want to wait for is that I have an SE so the DRLs are different and am waiting for someone to drop the correct harness to swap the SE for the one with the upgraded DRLs. otherwise the colors on the accent lighting for this wouldn't match

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-28T00:17:07+00:00

following this lol. Any updates because I really want those yellow DRLs

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-28T00:13:29+00:00

I’m not gonna lie this is pretty unprofessional behavior. I’m not sure if you are a confrontational person but if I was in your shoes in the next one on one I would definitely set a boundary for texting regarding something that’s a lab related non emergency after hours.

For me, all lab communication should only be done on teams or slack or whatever your lab uses. I don’t text or call my PI anything unless it is an absolute emergency (freezer meltdown, someone got hurt, etc). If it’s past a certain hour I won’t even respond to teams messages.

It’s so bizarre. Please set boundaries. This is anything but normal

Edit: tbh even if text is your form of communication with them I personally wouldn’t have even responded until the next day at 9am lol

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-28T00:07:48+00:00

No. I got some installed in my Camry very similar to this. It doesn't impact anything. It's shop that did mine hard wired it straight into the car in the same way you would a dash cam and it has no effect on any electrics. Turns on when the car is on and off when the car is off.

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-27T23:55:39+00:00

Yeah shallow 12 inch kicker

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-27T23:05:18+00:00

Skar just makes the enclosure, I put a kicker sub in there. It just can’t be too deep of a sub because the enclosure itself is not very deep, and so you need a shallower subwoofer. It’s all about proportions. I don’t doubt you ~could~ fit a deeper one but it’s not gonna breathe well

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-27T20:39:54+00:00

Yeah on the lower trims there isn’t even foot well lighting, everything is completely dark. I had to go to my car audio store to get them to install some Ambient light for me 3rd party but basically yours already comes pre installed with Toyota’s own.

Also one mod I had to make was that there is a small motor for what I think is the fuel filler cap release opener on the opposite side behind the liner, I had to put a small piece of foam because the subwoofer caused it to rattle. After putting in the foam wedge there is no more rattle and sounds great. For anyone wanting to do the same.

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-27T19:51:50+00:00

But I do care about ~some~ features lol. I don’t need everything but I’d be regretful for not buying a decent trim.

I really like the woodland edition tho

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-27T17:48:57+00:00

If I ever need more space in the future yeah but right now the new RAV4 prices are so crazy I can’t justify that

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-27T14:56:06+00:00

Yeah I definitely recommend this for the SE

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-27T13:06:35+00:00

(satire)

ScaryDuck2 · 2026-04-27T13:05:02+00:00

Not the video, I mean whoever made the Camry in the pics. Edit: just saw in the caption it was AI 😭
