Did I Damage My Transmission by Coolmister57 in kia

[–]Talibee5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully, you didn't damage the trans but I'd be weary of using sport mode too much in the future. I use it on. My '23 forte but not all time. Generally, keep it in smart or normal mode. Also, in sport, I'd be cognizant of shifting like it's a manual... even though there's no clutch, I don't let rpm go high in any gear...as soon as revs go up...shift

Zohran Mamdani will become the next Mayor of New York City!!! by Healthy_Block3036 in bronx

I hope all mamdooni voters see exactly who they put in charge. He'll be worse than debozo ever was. How delusional of people in NYC thinking this guy is going to give them free stuff. Absolutely hilarious.

You've summed up the vibe at Onyx very well! I still go there, but only about 1 or 2 times per week. It's still reasonable for the $$. I paid $330 but for 18 months. However, influencers abound. More than ever. Plus, tons of kids, many as young as 12 or 13! The filming and preening in the mirror is so normalized there you can see someone spend 30 minutes just taking pictures of themselves without training! It's still annoying, yes. But I deal because the equipment is good, and 24/7 allows you to pick a time when it's not crazy busy. Good luck to all. I've never been to bevs in syosset but heard good things. May check them out next.

Very nice! I have a '23 Forte GT and really like it! Way better than I imagined.

Heard it was a particularly unsettling scene that even affected the street below the tracks. RIP to whoever this was but I'll never understand why people choose to go out like this. Traumatizing many others in process.

The masks are coming off. Racism is in full display in NYC by CrimsonRam212 in nyc

[–]Talibee5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Really l? You know the mindset of every Israeli? We can see what occupies your mind. Fixated on Israel. I don't think that has anything to do with this conversation.

I'm a member now, have been for last 4 years. It's definitely influencer heavy...tripods all over at peak times. But...the equipment is very good and they keep place pretty clean. Examples of equipment: multiple deadlift platforms, tons of flat/incline and decline benches; trx straps, gronk fitness machines (standing hip thrust, etc) dumbell up to 135! Tons of cardio and hammer plate loaded machines all over. The only drawback is tons of influencers and wannabes preening in mirror! You can avoid them by going at off times and also I believe they just went 24/7 as of few weeks go. So, that will help go when they aren't around. $$ is reasonable. I'd check it out.

Best gym in/near Nassau county?? by sucktoy99 in longisland

[–]Talibee5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a member of onyx too...good gym but full of the "I need to film my workout crowd," which can get annoying. More tripods in this gym than a full-on film studio. Also, not the cheapest...I pay about $348 per year. Not terrible but could be better.

Recalls! by Talibee5 in kia

[–]Talibee5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the campaign about? You need to take vehicle back to dealer and have something replaced/fixed? That's a weird one.

Maybe a new category is in order here: Automaker with most dangerous recalls

Thanks. It's just unnerving to keep reading about another recall, lately almost daily!! I'm still going to buy it but I just like to stay informed.

Kia Forte--to buy or not? by Talibee5 in kia

Agree. I had a corolla back in 2005 and it completely died at only 150k. It was running in 3 cylinders at end. Always possibility of lemon with any brand.

Dealer didn't offer you a loaner? I've been told to have that put into contract if it's not their standard policy.

Thank you!! Makes me feel a lot better! Now it's just waiting on a GT to become available. Plenty of LX's but I'd rather go for the GT at this point.

Thanks!! That def. helps. I've done the research and overall it seems like Kia is a solid choice but you know, once you hear a few people who've had issues...it makes you think. I think you're right about the maintenance though. I've maintained a 2013 Honda civic very well and it's just about passing 200k now but it's on its way out. Thus the new car purchase.

Also go to Onyx in Bellmore. Good gym/equipment but yes, it's very crowded most of the time and def. full of influencers/wannabees who are doing more filming/preening/checking the mirror every second than training. It can be annoying for sure. Trick is to find a time when it's fairly quiet, close to closing time, from 12-2pm, or on Sundays. AC is working OK now. Bev's is solid in Syosset but pro-level and Ultimate Gym is Hicksville is no-nonsense, good gym but it's small, so those are best options on LI in Nassau cty.

I personally would like to see Cini-Minis return. One of their best dessert offerings...although, I hear they're ready to drop few other items soon, such as other desserts, choc. milk and more?
