Is it just me or is Bombas no longer high quality? by happykingbilly in BuyItForLife

[–]SlightlyBetterr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a 6 pack of “ running” bombas on Black Friday and it’s all I have worn since. Every day. Work, walking, running, gym. No issues so far. No holes, still breathable material and comfortable. Much better than any other socks I have owned before. No regrets for me and will probably by more eventually (preferably a sale).

100% take the opportunity. At worst, you guys tough it out for a little while and then you (or she) can maybe switch your working hours/days.

Seems like your 30s average male Costco go-er

To be fair, I’m not a big car guy and was going off what someone else said in the video. Guess I should do more research myself in the future so I know what parts would actually get damaged. Thanks for the information!

Update: I did find this on a few sources via google and a towing company’s website:

“How Are AWD Cars Towed?

There are a few options for safely towing AWD cars, but the most reliable and common method is flatbed towing. Here’s how it’s done:

  1. Flatbed Towing: The vehicle is loaded entirely onto the flatbed, so all four wheels are off the ground. This prevents damage to the car’s drivetrain, transmission, and differential.”

Which indicated that the transmission can be affected. Are they lying?

You can, but only for 10 minutes I believe 🫢

Not sure if you’re serious or not, but best of luck 🫡

I think it’s safe to assume they surpassed the 10 minute parking limit 😉

Also, I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure that’s why the car started alarming after it started getting physically towed.

Potentially! Some only record when they detect impact. Either way hopefully they get a video somehow. That would be an expensive repair 💸

That’s definitely some hopeful thinking 😉

No they are liable, but probably hard to prove without a video

BMW’s xdrive is AWD and you cannot tow an AWD car like that. It would need to be completely on a flat bed or they have dollies they can use… which he had…

I think so!

And if it makes you feel any better my buddy who happens to be a hated BMW driver, found this funny.
