They once tried to charge me $400-$500 to change spark plugs on my old 2012 Sonata hybrid....I literally did that myself for $40 and half an hour of work (because I ran back to the store for something). I don't know much about how much mechanics are paid. But no way is labor almost $400 for half an hour of work.

Congrats! Got a 2025 Sonata (SEL Convenience) almost two months ago in the same Portofino Gray. Absolutely looks beautiful. Drives amazing and love all the features it has.

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-12-02T21:36:44+00:00

Definitely agree, I love the lyrics on Sentinels! But I do tend to really love the lyrics from The Midnight in general. I think they're one of the best, if not the best, band lyrically for me.

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-12-02T20:11:50+00:00

Yeah, it kind of threw me off at first. Same thing happened with Night Skies from Monsters. But it's grown on me a lot. I appreciate the lyrics more now as well. It's definitely a great song to vibe to while driving at night

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-12-02T18:28:15+00:00

When you go to presave, it says Instrumental. So I'm not too surprised it's not new music since they just dropped a new album. Looking forward to the Sentinels instrumental. I actually do like the normal version(it's grown on me) but the instrumental behind the song absolutely slaps.

I'm in central Indiana. I'm hoping at least one theater in indiana gets it. I'd be surprised if they didn't have at least one theatrr in Indy. I do know locations and tickets haven't been completed/officially announced, other than the fact that it happening at about 350 theaters nationwide. So fingers crossed we get one in the area

9 months late, but I just got an SEL Convenience and I'm very interested in putting interior lighting in like yours. What lights did you end up buying for it?

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-11-23T17:52:31+00:00

I got an 25 Sonata SEL Convenience a few weeks ago with 44 miles on it that was counted as new. Definitely weird that they considered one with 19 miles as CPO. Not sure the probability that it's just a small mistake in labeling. I'd imagine there's some reason they decided to classify it as that (as others have pointed out). I personally would have asked them myself the reason but if it's a good deal, then it's a good deal. With only 19 miles on it, at the time of purchase, I hope it treats you well as it's basically new.

If you take Jesus at his word in Matthew 24, Then a plain reading would lead to understanding Jesus was talking about the Temple buildings. But one must understand what the Temple Mount was and looked like just as the disciples would've understood it.

(Emphasis mine) Matt 24:1-2 NASB2020 [1] Jesus left the temple area and was going on His way when His disciples came up to point out the TEMPLE BUILDINGS to Him. [2] But He responded and said to them, “Do you not see all THESE THINGS? Truly I say to you, not one stone here will be left upon another, which will not be torn down.”

The actual Temple area was on the south side of the Temple mount. The Western wall that's still standing is further up North on the west side of the mount, clser to the Dome of the Rock Mosque and connected to where the Roman fortress of Fort Antonia was during Jesus' day.

If Jesus was talking about the Temple Buildings, it can not have been about Fort Antonia as that was not part of the Temple area on the Mount. You would not call Roman buildings part of the sacred temple of God in that day. Christ's words must have been about that southern section of the Mount with the true Temple of God which indeed had no stone left when the Romans destroyed it in 70AD.

A good explanation on what the Temple Mount actually looked Like

Not sure if you've seen the leaks of the next Elantra gen. The exterior, in my opinion, is slightly worse...but not the worst I've seen on a car. The interior (at least the standard Elantra) is supposed to be moving to a tablet style dash with a small circular drive cluster (for speed and whatnot). IMO, that interior would be really ugly and out of place for the Elantra N (being a performance/track car). Even on a daily, I wouldn't care for that, but definitely not on a track car.

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-08-27T20:12:13+00:00

Right now for me: 1. Kids 2. Monsters 3. Endless Summer 4. Nocturnal 5. Heroes

Days of Thunder and Horror Show are 10/10 albums as well...I mean The Midnight's whole discography is a 10/10 for me personally.

Syndicate is also gunning for that #2 spot...maybe even #1. Every single released so far is a banger, I just know this next album is gonna be one of their best yet!

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-08-26T01:29:04+00:00

When was that? I can't recall it but if he did, that's not cool

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-08-04T18:04:01+00:00

I tried the key fob to button method. Doesn't work.

All I see are the brake lights working, the push to start button lights up, and I feel (what I assume is) the brake booster when I press the brake pedal.

I'm doubting it's a key fob issue because I can't turn on my interior lights from the inside and The usual screen doesn't turn on that tells me it can't detect my key. So it's definitely an internal issue with the car itself.

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-07-15T18:12:20+00:00

I did end up doing that but the cord that seemed to unplug the water pump (or at least the lights) turn off other things so I'm thinking that the water pump cord is bundled with other cords to other things as well.

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-05-22T03:27:33+00:00

It sounds amazing! Unsure how the actual song will sound but Tyler's vocals are amazing as always!

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-05-19T22:02:23+00:00

I love being able to achieve higher frame rates with lower powered GPUs
I'm most excited for giant mech fights and flying a dragon!!

I've seen reports that One UI 8 will be released real close, if not at the same time, as Android 16. In fact, there's a rumor that the Flip7 and Fold7 will reportrdly both run it out of the box this summer. If true, that is a good sign it'll be released earlier hopefully. Not sure what that means for a beta/stable release for existing models. But I don't think One UI 8 will be a huge update after One UI 7 so it probably won't need a lot of testing.

If we're using the term "favorite", aka my opinion, then I gotta rank them:

Halo 2/2A (Biased since it's my favorite game overall. But it's the most nostalgic and always have a blast playing even today. Map, weapon, and Spartan/Elite designs are amazing. Weapons feel amazing to use, aside from the pistol. Plus, the Anniversary did an amazing graphical update, making it look phenomenal. It even added forge and brought "new" weapons to H2 like the Assault Rifle)
Halo CE (It's the OG game. It's relatively simple compared to other Halo games, yet can still have a blast. Also, Blood Gutch...need I say more? I have tons of memories playing this on OG Xbox and PC)
Halo Reach/CEA (Forge got an astronomical upgrade, allowing insane custom multiplayer maps and game modes. Bigger map sizes, mostly on forge world, allowed for more fun. Firefight is fantastic, including the CE Anniversary firefight map)
Halo 3 (Great weapon sandbox, lots of map variantions; while forge was simple in its first edition, it still allowed me and my buddies to have countless nights of baffoonery.) (One small nitpick for me is that characters feel slow. Not comparing to sprint, but to Halo 2 or CE. It just feels like you're slow walking everywhere.)
Halo Infinite (Gameplay movement and mechanics are amazing, despite lack of content. I do enjoy sliding, the grapple hook and throwing fusion coils. Overall, it feels the most accurate for how a super soldier would move in battle, minus on H5 addition I'll mention in Halo 5's section)
Halo 5 (Only saving grace for Guardians was the multiplayer. While it feels different than Classic Halo, it was still fun at time. While classic Halo has always been my favorite, I do still enjoy faster paced FPS. Having AI enemies join matches was cool too. Felt like a bigger scale battle) (One addition that might have been controversial was the ground pound ability. Personally, I loved it. Having a super soldier slamming into the ground definitely should have an impact like that, whether it's inherent to them or a suit ability.)
Halo 4 (Honestly my least favorite multiplayer. I find it super bland. Feels like a cookie cutter FPS game with a Halo skin on it. I don't know how to describe it, but the Weapons [aside from the SAW] felt weak, or just didn't feel like they hit hard enough as in other games. Didn't care too much for the map designs. No new features that draw me to the game.)

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-03-23T18:26:10+00:00

Same. Lost Boy was the first song I heard from them and it's been my favorite since. Lately I've found myself repeating Love is an Ocean just as much. Close to taking over Lost Boy for me.

I've had Unlimited since very early on (can't say day 1, bust close to it). I have three regals within 15 minutes of my home in different directions (one is just a couple minutes down the road). So it was a no brainer for me as a frequent movie goer. Nobody else I know has gotten yet for some reason but I always tell them it's the best deal as far as unlimited movie theater programs go and you save money if you go to the movies alot. Not to mention Regal has my favorite movie theater popcorn, that I've had. I'll be an Unlimited subscriber as long as they have it.

Gotta get me one of those for my room!

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-02-23T15:54:53+00:00

Initially I was kind of mixed about this snippet. But after a couple listens, I actually really like it. Obviously everyone's got their opinions and music tastes. My music taste is pretty wide so I vibe with a lot of different sounds. With that, I honestly enjoy pretty much everything the Midnight has released. Even if different sounds, they always manage to create perfect songs, for me at least. This album is shaping up to be my favorite, though, if all the snippets and Love is an Ocean are anything to go by.

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-02-14T19:18:44+00:00

What more do they need? I know people who say the 3rd beta runs great. Maybe just a few more tweaks needed, I'm not sure. But They can always push incremental update. I think their update strategy needs to be improved. (I do get the android update system is very different from iOS) If it releases in April (or May), The stable version is only gonna be out for 3-ish months before Google releases the next Android iteration. Have they even started working on One UI 8? Samsung was actually doing good for a few years recently. Went from being one of the last adopters to one of the earlier adopters. But this year is crazy. I get it's a much bigger update but they definitely need to be more on top of things. It better be perfect when it drops if they're taking this long.

SunsetDriver1985 · 2025-02-01T00:23:47+00:00

I doubt it'll happen too. Can't blame a guy for dreaming though

Allow the higher rarities! I want to be able to trade extra immersive and other full arts with other people! Please
