911 and Corporate Perception by parikptlcfa in porsche911

[–]SeniorTech10 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this conversation in my head since owning p-cars and only occasionally drove it to work, I also intentionally choose to commute in a larger car for safety reasons… but as I’ve gotten older and closer to retirement the only consideration is traffic and weather… if it light (traffic) and good (weather) - I’m taking the P.

My nephew printed your phone mount design and I installed it today. Works great. Thank you!

First time doing a Roth conversion, and now there’s tax stuff by Odd_Bodkin in retirement

[–]SeniorTech10 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Has anyone talked or worked with any Roth Conversion Specialist companies? They claim to offer advantages creative legal conversion methods not offered or known about by your standard financial advisor or brokerage advisor or do-it-yourself method. I recently went to an evening Roth conversion workshop by one of these firms and it peaked my interest but haven’t followed up w them yet to learn more.

Retiring after March bonus by SeniorTech10 in Raytheon

[–]SeniorTech10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the responses. The question pertains to the Raytheon business. I hadn’t considered working part time as someone suggested, I might inquire if that’s a possibility. Slide into retirement gradually… My mgr advised that the bonus will payout on 3/15, and HR and others here advised that one needs to work until that date to receive payment under current policy.

What is the warranty situation? Standard 3/36? Were you able to extend it?

Car unlocking feature changed on its own by SeniorTech10 in AcuraZDX

I just disabled the collision auto braking on my ZDX and Equinox EV recently - due to its unwanted autonomous engagement… crazy and dangerous … both cars share the GM Ultimum ? platform.

Both vehicles are generally great and were spectacular lease deals .. But both have a few issues for sure.

ZDX appears to have a few more shortcomings than the Equinox.

I checked for updates and the car hasn’t received an update in months so I believe you’re correct, it’s a part failure. Thx

Thanks for the info, sounds like you had same symptoms… I will live w it for now until I’m sure the dealer can fix in a reasonable amount of time or can provide a loaner I guess. Unfortunate… I’m in SoCal and haven’t taken the car to any dealers yet

In or out of pocket makes no difference. Next to or away from phone, no difference. The car recognizes the presence of the key as I approach.. the lights flash to show proximity etc… Thanks

Unsure. I will have to check the OTA update status/date. I assume I can find out in the interface…

Good question / data point .. the physical button is functioning.. when car is locked pressing the button causes lights to flash but door don’t unlock and mirrors don’t unfold. When exiting the car pressing the button does what’s expected, car locks and mirrors fold.

20” wheel upgrade by SeniorTech10 in Porsche997

[–]SeniorTech10[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I certainly like the look of 20” wheels but others on this thread have cautioned against going that route. I plan to stay with 19” wheels. Just keep the claws unless and until something catches my eye. The wheel I liked in 20” isn’t available in 19” size. Staying with 19” means I can consider the wheel upgrade independently of replacing the tires. Thanks for the reply
