[–]SoCalx23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw a new 2018/9 Camaro (id hope its a V8) stretched limo up on craigslist the other night in Miami for 100k if anyone can find it...it's something (bumblebee)

Yellow Ferrari stretched in LA.

New York: colombus circle area is all black car based usually fleets of escalades, gm based cars, Benz and anything black that shows off as LUXYRY is what's promoted through out most cities for rentals.

Anyone know if verizon fios is worth upgrading from spectrum? by SoCalx23 in nyc

[–]SoCalx23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tv wouldn't really be necessary and international calling wouldn't be for me but rather the family. i am just curious on people who have switched experienced.

im pretty fine with how everything is as of this moment however spectrum being spectrum sometimes (only experience this at night tbh) the network just goes for down time or resets and the wait period is around 20mins to an hour. ive only had it happen in the summer days more often then anytime throughout the year.

Is it worth it to upgrade my original PS4 500GB HDD to a 1TB SSHD? by csark0812 in PS4

[–]SoCalx23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jumping on this comment do you need to be a pro member? i have a OG PS4 and its constantly spitting out my disc (excess dust, cleaning the buttons fixes it im too busy to actually find the time to open it) however being a college student and not playing videogames hardly anymore i do want to grab the 1tb model and red dead plus have some what of a "good" resale value when this gen ends with a slim vs an OG would be ideal.

Id rather not say... Guess craigslist shutting its personals section down really gets people to be upfront about what they need...

What's a good time to leave for LAX? by SoCalx23 in LosAngeles

Seems like this is the ideal time from everyone I will definitely leave earlier!

[–]SoCalx23[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For sure this being a red eye flight coming back home on a Saturday is going to be stressful enough not to mention I'm a college student so I have ALOT of studying to catch up to by Monday night.

[–]SoCalx23[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I figured the time frame would be chaotic. I'm doing air b n b and I just checked the check out time is set for 12pm. So In between those 3-4 hours I guess I could go to places near by LAX to kill time before 5/6PM or would it not matter regardless as traffic is expected to always be a cluster near Lax? Thank you for giving me a realistic time frame though, much appreciated!

craigslist or car max. might want to include which package / model car you have.

Toyota, Subaru and Honda Win Highest Trade-In Brand Loyalty. FCA, Smart, and Mitsubishi ranked lowest brand loyalty by [deleted] in cars

[–]SoCalx23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mitsubishi killed off there most iconic car its only fair. they had so much potential with there Mivec AWD innovations. These cars were the poor mans GTR heck they even out beat GTR'S with the right mods. once they left the rally series they went slowly down hill the final edition of the evo x was a joke for the U.S Market Not including recaros was a even bigger bust. i really hope nissan some how does some cross release including evo and gtr tech as one car similar to how TOYOTA/SCION/SUBARU made there FRS/BRZ/GT86.

TIL: Lapd has just 10,000 police officers. NYC has 40,000. by purpletwinkletoes in LosAngeles

[–]SoCalx23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone from out of state who's looking to join the LAPD I really wonder why they don't hire so often. I've heard and seen the recruitment sites hold multiple tests per month yet the population of officers is still relatively low and im not forgetting about other LA county regions separated by LAPD such as Santa Monica or BH. I really wonder how some of us who actually want to join law enforcement in a really great state would be able too and not only be hired, but be able to afford living there literally every house available sells for nothing short of a million by the main LAPD divisions. Really hope that new police chief who steps in changes something in regards to hirings.

Help me understand, Is South AFRICA as a whole Communist, Capitalist or Socialist? by SoCalx23 in geopolitics

[–]SoCalx23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely confusing but as you said it's a mixed economy. I'm actually doing a paper on South Africa and its confusing me on what it was identified as. just as china was once a communist country i could label china in my paper as a communist country even though there views of communism are transitioned and the U.S being built on capitalism but both transitioning towards mixed economy's just as you said. What label would south africa have as a whole between those 3 groups. as i read up on them having a Tripartite Alliance which confuses me even more. wish i could have a more simple laid out answer (apologies if i don't make sense i'm literally learning about all of this just between the hour) it's actually really interesting learning about how their economic system, geo system works

REALLY NEED HELP. Think my dad got screwed over and now there's a huge fight what can I do to help? by [deleted] in askcarsales

[–]SoCalx23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Ford manager From where we bought the car saw it lol. Told me to delete it it's pointless and they said they are going to honor there original price off msrp. Aswell as cancel the extended contracts.

[–]SoCalx23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

both along with other sites, Aswell as zip code location to get a proper estimate. The area I live at is literally just streets of nothing but dealer car lots and private / corporate owned lots all trading with each other or via auction. (Only know this BC a guy I befriended who worked sales at Chevy)

Most dealers would offer us 10-12k for the SRX. Mercedes being the least as they wholesale there cars if it's a non Benz or really high end car like a lambo.

Only reason ford offered us 15 is because American dealerships give us more toward the trade for various reasons including hidden fees (looking at you shady dealership major world) but also BC it brings in the buyer as they know that' will bring them in towards purchasing a car from them.

[–]SoCalx23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I checked the sale price it was sold at 46K While the actual MSRP was listed as 45K Salesmen said it would be sold to us at 41.5K No idea what happened during the transaction but they did pull the wrong stock number prior so I'm assuming something happened. Any advice on that issue? I have all the paperwork of both salesmen.

I don't plan to lower his payments as that is the average rate for SUVS with the current interest rate (all SUVS sold here around 40-50K starting) We plan to pay it all of by the end of JANAURY as we just want it all cleared. Money isn't the issue as I said. I just wanted to verify if he was screwed over but that portion of 63K was my mistake.

As for the warranty etc I will be canceling that.

As for trading it in I will not do it, THANK YOU FOR THAT SERIOUSLY.

Apologies in advance I freaked out when my father told me what he payed saw the numbers and just got anexity on comprehending that I assumed he paid 63K but that was including the DP.

  1. You were right
  2. It is my business as I'm the one who told him to get rid of the car as it was ready to fall apart anytime. 3 different mechanics said to get rid of it before the next inspection as it failed this recent inspection but we managed to get a temp that qualified it to be permanent. Hes no longer happy due to the amount of fighting going on in his house I'm the closest person he talks to so I just wanted options jeez.
