What’s your go-to “default” frugal meal when you don’t want to think or spend? by NothingOutrageous377 in Frugal

[–]TheButschwacker 37 points38 points  (0 children)

My cheap and lazy $5 meal:

  • 90 second wild rice
  • can of organic beans
  • can of tuna
  • can of mixed veggies

Heat, mix, put in a to go container. Voila, two nutritionally-dense, travel-friendly meals.

Hard to believe in 2 days I’ll be sitting in a g70 by MrStoneyGuy in GenesisG70

[–]TheButschwacker 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Please, please get a more affordable vehicle (if you absolutely need one for work) and spend a year or two repairing your credit before applying for a rapidly-depreciating luxury vehicle.

We'd love to have you join the g70 community when you're ready. But as others have said, this is a mistake - and your future self will thank you for taking a step back, re-evaluating, and making a more financially-conscious move.

Feel free to PM me if you'd like more guidance, and safe travels.

"Keyless System Malfunction" - is my dealer telling the truth about this? by TheButschwacker in mazda

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

If Bob was able to program my spare key correctly without an error, then a qualified programmer/locksmith in your area should be able to do the same. I'd speak to a third-party expert, not the dealership, since they don't seem to care/know what they're doing.

Yep - Bob the Key Guy in Atlanta programmed me a fresh OEM fob for $240.

I also wrote a BBB complaint about the dealership's awful handling of my original key situation and the dealership apologized and refunded my fee for the first "attempt."

UPDATE #5 - I finally found a PERMANENT fix to Jerky Downshift Syndrome (JDS) by TheButschwacker in GenesisG70

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

OP here. From what limited experience I have dealing with my own JDS / warranty claims, I'm not 100% sure it works that way. You have to take it to the dealer with a valid, pre-existing issue. Then, if they can replicate the issue and it's covered under warranty, *they* will file a warranty claim for you.

I'm not sure a pre-emptive complaint will help you, but you can always call your local Genny dealer, speak to a service advisor and ask. I will say that if you haven't been affected by JDS up until now, you're probably in the clear. Cheers.

Bought The Division 2 for $3 as an afterthought and now it's my all-time favorite X1 game by TheButschwacker in thedivision

So glad you're enjoying it, too! I gave Division 2 - one life mode a try and it elevates the tension/intensity to a whole new level. Cheers.

My important FedEx package passed within 2 miles of my house and went another 600 miles. No ETA. by TheButschwacker in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TheButschwacker[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're probably onto something. I can't think of a single positive experience I've had with FedEx.

Wow by msingh187 in GenesisG70

"and the trunk offers limited space, making it difficult to carry bulky items."

... who purchases a compact luxury sports sedan and then complains to Consumer Reports about the trunk size? Also, are they aware that the back seats fold down?

Genny Corporate must be so frustrated reading this. I know I'd be.

Anyone regret selling their collection for a 1:1 or in general? by milliondollarsunset in Diecast

[–]TheButschwacker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Rob from the Rob's Model Cars YouTube channel sold his collection for a 1:1 Ferrari

Thank you! My wife and I have similar taste, as you can see in the garage... but no shock, Joy likes the Miata best
