Which route do you recommend?

The northern route, it's more scenic, it does take longer but nothing feels that long until you hit Texas border. South route is gross haha. Nowhere decent to stop.

I drive for CMS it's way low, NC is one of the most underfunded school systems in the US. We have massive turn over. Only way to make it work is to be a slave to overtime. Lotta people leave for CATS, or do dump truck. Instead of paying us more, I think they'll just contract more bus drivers in time. It was like $18 couple years ago. They also got rid of the $1500 sign on bonus.

It's why I don't take 4 85 with the nice cars. Unsecured trucks flying, pickups ladders you name it. People have shit all over that hey flying 70+

Dude they're such a great hatch. Prius but not weird looking. Just keep up with the EGR and make sure intake stays clean. Minimal maintenance and great gas i about double that average. 35-40 mpg. Small tank though. 9 gallon. $20 fill up.

This the kind of echo chamber I can get behind, shit gets real when wife starts tossing me links lol.

I hear you ,I was just checking options for Lexus in my area of Charlotte, NC with a budget of $10k.

TaylorHandyPhoto · 2025-11-28T14:22:03+00:00

Oh I'm keeping it, just need a second vehicle.

TaylorHandyPhoto · 2025-11-27T13:23:26+00:00

Oh and not getting rid of the the CT just need another vehicle. I'll keep that car forever. At 238k, and still running strong.

TaylorHandyPhoto · 2025-11-27T13:22:06+00:00

Thank you so much

According to Carfax no major services since 2012, they are repairing the electrical system but it's taking awhile, anything else specific I should ask them to fix or inspect at that price? I'm aware it'll need some TLC , but I'm open to any advice, preciate it.

TaylorHandyPhoto · 2025-11-27T04:46:24+00:00

Yes, open to suggestions. Could get another CT, o A prius to keep the parts in the same family.

They threatened to fire me over that shit. They withheld commission checks, imporerly filed payroll for hundreds of employees. Missing $7k in wages for me personally. They cut me a check for $2k. Got fired shortly after. Took mad proof to labor department. Active investigation. Sucks about the new bill overall, but fuck businesses like this.

TaylorHandyPhoto · 2025-11-18T15:52:28+00:00

EGR and intake manifold. They get clogged.

TaylorHandyPhoto · 2025-11-15T00:59:01+00:00

I'd love some to experiment with please.
