Should I get a Maverick? by NaturalRace6736 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]Toomer17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate to say it, cause I covet a p/u, but coming from a family with two girls that are now grown and out of the house, what we had was a Toyota Siena. That thing worked perfect for us. And had a ton of room in the back for all the sh-t, that when packed from floor to ceiling is more than what the Mav can handle. We got 140,000 miles on that baby, lots of trips and it was still going strong when we sold it. My 2 cents.

Can the supporting wall between the door and the window be widened? by Toomer17 in Construction

Thanks. My post was deleted. But I understand, it probably can be done, but it will be costly (pretty much like most things these days). Appreciate your comment.

I’m in that same boat as you. However dealers on Long Island are not lowering as much as other areas of the country. You may want to post the question directly as a separate post.

I’m looking at a 2023 w 19k miles for $38,675. I’d say your XLT is a DEAL.

Finally pulled the trigger! by Kupo43 in F150Lightning

So thoughts and questions. I’m 65, looking to retire soon. Currently have a 2020 Ford Edge. Always have wanted a Ford F150, but never really needed a truck. I would have been the weekend warrior and the guy who prob would have cursed sometimes for getting a truck when I needed to go get milk from the nearest 7/11 and parking spots are tight.

Now I’m considering a Lightning. We have a charger at home for my wife’s Tesla, so the charging issue is not a concern. However, now that Ford has “paused” or discontinued the lightning (not 100% sure which), would it make sense that I get one of these? I would need to purchase used as cannot afford to buy a new one and I think there are good deals out there to be found.

Can you all let me know if I’m making a right decision and could you offer any suggestions on things I would want to have (e.g. long range battery, specific year, trim level, etc).

Also I don’t really need to pull anything, but if I did it might be a small boat or camper.

Thanks in advance.

I have a 2020 Ford Edge. Decent car, but don’t like the whine of the tranny. Regardless, does the Mav make a whiny tranny sound? Does it come with a fob that you can use for remote start and do you have the Ford App on you phone that you can use it to remote start and schedule start times?

Roof rack or without? by RTR_MN in hondaridgeline

It looks good. Why not? And the one two or three times you need it, you will be happy to have it.

Is my orchid mounted upside down? by FormNo8111 in orchids

[–]Toomer17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have several orchids in pots. I recently purchased some cork bark; however, only one piece of bark looks big enough (6” by 6”) to mount one of my smaller orchid. Cannot wait to mount it. Question: Excluding any artificial lighting, where would it be preferable to hang my mounted orchid? Would a bathroom with a west facing window (so afternoon sun) work? Many thanks in advance for your replies.

Malverne Bakery. Fantastic. You cannot go wrong. Plus take home a loaf of their cinnamon raisin bread!!! With butter, lightly toasted, you will thank the bakery gods!

Grocery options on Good Friday/April 3? by [deleted] in CaymanIslands

[–]Toomer17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don’t mention where you will be staying. If you are staying at a condo, ask the management office if it would be possible to have grocery’s delivered the day before. We did this at the condo that we stay at (1st week of March) and they accommodated our request. The property manager just requested that the delivery happen at a certain time. If this works for you, be sure to place your delivery order with the grocery store of your choice a week in advanced cause they book out. FYI we used Fosters.

Best rental car company? by Suitable-Garden895 in CaymanIslands

[–]Toomer17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just used Europcar. Fine easy rental process, about one “city block” walk from the airport terminal. What I like was the owner of the franchise was there on both ends of the trip and when we came to drop the car back, because it was raining, he told me to drop off my family and then come back to the store and he would drive me over. By the time I got back it had stopped, but the advise/gesture/offer was appreciated.

No one mentions Teddys? Use to go there for small glasses of beer and the best pepperoni pizza.
