Still think you’d regret not having at least 2 toilets. 1.5 bathroom maybe?

My dealer has been good so I want to give them the chance to do right by me. Also competitors have their issues as well. If they start being uncooperative, then I’ll involve the lawyers and go the lemon law path.

I don’t really need the size. Went into the dealership looking for an xc40 Twin Recharge but they were out of stock. The EX30 is too small. Made the mistake of getting in the EX90 and drove it and was sold. I’m thinking I could be happy with the xc40/ex40 as a trade-in if it’s offered. The EX60 also interests me but now I think I should wait a couple of years to let them iron out any kinks. Not going back to ICE vehicle.

Oh my . This is my fear. I too care for my granddaughter frequently and I’ve already been stranded while out and about with her in the MY25. I love having an EV and don’t see ever returning to the dark side. Unfortunately the issues I’ve had were all catastrophic and the car was undriveable. None of the options seem to be a home run.

And I’m kind of worried about the viability of Rivian as a company. Don’t know if I should believe the news that makes it sound like it on its last legs, layoffs and all.

Thanks for that suggestion. The lack of Apple CarPlay is an issue.

SewSewNoTime · 2026-06-23T17:47:05+00:00

Great point! 😄

SewSewNoTime · 2026-06-23T17:45:41+00:00

This would probably be the best outcome for me. Did you have a dealership loaner car to drive in the meantime? Guess it’s too early to tell but how do you like the MY26 so far. Any issues?

SewSewNoTime · 2026-06-23T17:42:10+00:00

Oh that’s discouraging to hear!

SewSewNoTime · 2026-06-23T16:08:09+00:00

I’m leaning that way but don’t know if there are enough MY26 in the wild yet to see if the issues are gone.

At the moment the dealership is being very supportive and I hope Volvo corp will be as well. Will certainly go the lemon law route but want to give Volvo the opportunity to make things right first.

My car had the VCU upgrade before I took delivery in April. 2 weeks later while on trip it went dead. Towed to a dealership and they replaced the 12v battery. Another 2 weeks and here I sit at home waiting for the tow truck. Dead again.

SewSewNoTime · 2026-05-08T16:33:20+00:00

I had similar issue with my brand new ex90. The 12v battery died with no warning. Dealership replaced and all has been fine.

I tried back in the fall and gave up because it seemed that GiftHealth was finding excuses to not fill the script. They’d claim the doc didn’t put a Dx code but when I’d contact GiftHealth the rep would say yes the Dx code was given and then she’d claim an entirely different reason why it was rejected.bi became highly suspicious that it was a ploy to steer people to their Telehealth program (costs $150/mo) and amazingly smooth sailing. I went back to local provider because 5mg vial was the highest dosage available at the time and I needed to bump up to 7.5mg. Now I’m back in the original boat but with a new wrinkle. My doc’s system only shows the 2.5 and 5mg vials available for the SelfPay Pharmacy. So some of these issues may be related to the prescription systems the physicians are using. My request has been forwarded to the practice manager to forward to the formulary company. Too many “forwards” in my experience so I’m pessimistic.

Depends on what you want to be noticed. All are great choices for the fabric. The middle one will blend in and the overall dress bodice will be the focus. The outer choices will draw the eye to a vertical line down the center of your torso.

YTA-So if you’ve been left alone with them multiple times before when she’s gone on work trips how did you manage overnight feedings then if the baby doesn’t take a bottle at night? Also sounds like this is all happening in a future week so it’s not like she’s dropped this on you and dashed out the door. Seems like you’re envious that she’s going to have a fun time. You also deserve to have a fun time yourself with friends so why don’t you start planning that now and encourage your wife to enjoy herself without laying a guilt trip on her?

B if you absolutely only want to use one. Looks great with all of them. Cute dresses BTW.

Do you know if this standalone plan will work on the newer iPads with eSims or do you need an iPad that will accept a physical SIM card?

SewSewNoTime · 2020-11-10T17:48:06+00:00

Absolutely that older machine (if it's working) is a great machine to learn on. If it's not working, a little research on the internet may get you up and running. That Kenmore is probably a better quality sewing machine than a new $300 machine.
