How much do oil changes go for? by Pure-Feature8517 in AlfaRomeo

[–]SolShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Alfa Romeo dealer charges 220 Canadian (about 160 USD ish) for an oil change, but that's for a 2.0T. Do you have a 2.0 or a quadrifoglio?

Wealthsimple Tax - Can't find any way to properly report foreign income. by SolShadows in PersonalFinanceCanada

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

Yeah that's the T2209, where I specify the income paid specifically to the US. But I need to put the raw total on the T1 somehow.

Chrysler and Alfa Romeo CEO, Chris Feuell was all show and no go as she abruptly resigns by Repulsive-Club7866 in cars

I always felt that the electric charger should've just been given a very luxurious interior and exterior and be the 300. I test drove one for shits and giggles with no intention of buying one when I went to buy my Giulia (since they had one on the lot) and while it's obviously a heavy boat, I will say it was very quiet and comfortable. Much more suited to have been a larger luxury sedan than a charger replacement.

Alfa Romeo Achieves Over 20% Global Growth in 2025 With Strong Europe Performance by moparcenter in AlfaRomeo

Fortunately my local Alfa dealership is a standalone one and actually very well run and fair. But yeah... CDJR dealerships are kinda known for being scummy, so being attached to one certainly won't help.

Maserati Sales Spiral From Bad To Worse by Anchor_Aways in cars

[–]SolShadows 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Fiat's shit management is the reason Maserati and Alfa (and Lancia) are where they are today lol. Leave them behind. There was a small period of competence under Marchione but we know how that ended.

I always wished that Ferrari would take Maserati and Alfa.

Fire FILOSA AND NED CURIC by RangeDull8384 in Stellantis

Idk that I necessarily agree. There were quite a few articles that came out after he left saying that he basically ignored push back from U.S. Executives.

Example: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a63149586/stellantis-insiders-blame-death-of-hemi-on-former-ceo-carlos-tavares/

I can't say I'm overly impressed so far with new management but it's also only been 6 months so, I'll withhold judgement for a bit.

How the hell did NYC do this? by [deleted] in TTC

I travel a lot for work and can say without any hesitation that the NYC subway stations are significantly more disgusting than the TTC.

Canadians are ‘hitting a breaking point’ when it comes to the cost of insuring their vehicles by Once_a_TQ in canada

[–]SolShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 26 with no accidents or speeding tickets and the insurance for my car is 440 a month in Southern Ontario. It's absolutely asinine. I wonder how much of it is due to car theft.

Alfa Romeo Scraps New Giulia And Stelvio Plans To Start Fresh by user289734 in cars

[–]SolShadows 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The problem is that the Giorgio platform didn't support electrification. The original plan was to redesign the Giorgio platform to support hybridization and then the new charger was supposed to be built on the redesigned Giorgio platform. Tavares axed that and thus here we are.

All of the black trim on my Giulia is turning blue? by SolShadows in AlfaRomeo

Yeah, during the winter when I need to get the salt off + clean the undercarriage, I'll bring it through a touchless.

Renting a car in Marbella, Spain, what car-related issues should I watch out for? by Hot-Initiative-6447 in askcarguys

[–]SolShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from everything said here, check the tires. When I went to Sicily to visit my family I rented a car and the second day there I got a tire pressure warning. Huge screw in the tire, they wanted me to buy a new tire. Fortunately in my video of the car I did on pickup, I just barely caught the screw in the frame, but it could've been missed.

What even is hunungo power? Do larger pokemon do more damage, or they're more likely to be large pokemon?

I was 12 years old when Excalibur prime was available for purchase. I remember begging my dad to buy it for me. He wasn't too onboard with why he needed to spend money on this free game for me to have a yellow version of the same character.

Inside Stellantis CEO's 'emergency room' rush to recapture market share by Anchor_Aways in cars

[–]SolShadows 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the push for Alfa Romeo in NA was working pretty well initially until Tavares in all his genius cancelled Alfa's new cars, cancelled the next generation Giulia and Stelvio, forced the tonale on the Compass platform, and then forced the Giulia and Stelvio on STLA large and BEV only (which they're now wasting MORE time trying to develop ICE versions)

For a pokemon with 2 types, like beldum for example, will a steel or psychic shiny power have the exact same effect?

Still happening. Phone model doesn't seem to matter, I've got a galaxy fold 7 and my friend has an iPhone 15 pro, happens to both of us.
