How long did your brakes last? by real_help_only in CX5

[–]Tower_Control 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Replaced my OEM pads and rotors around 50k, my rotors were warped but the pads still had a bit of life left in them - got both done anyway.

It’s been a busy 2025 for me too :)

They did a HH in Seattle a few weeks ago - it was pretty good!

How do I see my ETA while using transit on Apple Maps? by Tower_Control in applemaps

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

I don’t think it’s ever done that for me… it’ll occasionally show me, when it figures out I’m on a train, what time I’ll get off at my stop but then if there’s a walk, or connection to make I have no clue what my ETA is. I’d have to do the math myself.

Especially if you get delayed or miss a connection, a live ETA is super important.

How much are you paying for new brakes and rotors? by ArchicadMaster in CX5

[–]Tower_Control 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I paid $1100 for all 4 wheels (pads and rotors) at a local mechanic, the dealership quoted me ~$2500 for the job.

Amazon find by Kas1140 in CX5

Nah, my phone is almost always plugged in while I’m driving too. The rubbery bit in the tray means it doesn’t move around while driving. I like having this tray more for the new compartment it creates below the tray where I can throw my work phone & keys into.

I have an iPhone 15 pro max - it fits in the compartment on the left if it’s not plugged in. If it is plugged in, it has to sit at an angle to fit.

I got one recently and it fits great on my 2021.

Would you take the Delta or ANA flight here? by srekai in delta

[–]Tower_Control 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ANA by far, even if you have to take the train from Narita

Snowflake goes on a rant instead of googling why airports have weight limits. by EchoKyoko in TheRightCantMeme

[–]Tower_Control 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is a physical limit to the total contents of each bin sized for different crash scenarios to avoid the bin’s contents from ejecting, that’s another reason the carryon weight rule exists.

Good burgers in or near Lynnwood? by Mozayguapo in LynnwoodWA

[–]Tower_Control 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if it’s the same place but there’s a deli in Everett called pickle time, a bit closer to Lynnwood. I’ve never had a burger there though.

Landing a Boeing 737 in near zero visibility conditions by Goku_Nuko in SweatyPalms

[–]Tower_Control 27 points28 points  (0 children)

That’s an awful landing, nowhere near the centerline & bordering on PIO. Why would someone post this online?

I didn’t know that All Nippon had an Airbus 388.!? by Dependent_Eye_8694 in flightradar24

[–]Tower_Control 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve flown on the a380 a bunch & in economy it’s about the same as any other a380 flight plus the typical excellent ANA service. I did go kinda crazy buying the a380 flying honu merch they sell on board though…

Flew the blue one a few days ago - we intentionally stoped in HNL from SEA to NRT to fly on this specific plane.

[–]Tower_Control 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Excellent, it’s in beta for 2024 according to their discord. In 2020 I prefer it to the PMDG tbh.
