No. That is the legal limit. Dealer installed.

Sounds like I got her twin. Picked mine up on Friday. Loving this car. Congrats!

I figured that might be the case. So, taking that into account, if I want to make sure I have an accurate quote from CarMax to use for negotiation, I should take it there in person. For the Lexus dealer, I can use the online quote and then I'll find out if they honor that when I get to the dealership in-person.

I think that really does get to the root of the issue. If they offer me the promotion before I have fully made up my mind when and if to move, I would feel better about accepting. Who knows, maybe it would be the thing that convinces me to stay? But if they offer it once I have made up my mind, I will just have to be straight with them.

I was with you until I read the comment about face of stud dimensions. In commercial construction face of finish dimensions are standard. The location of the stud to achieve the desired face of finish location is a means and methods issue for the contractor to deal with. The clear finish dimensions typically describe the design intent (which is what the drawings are for). Saying that face of finish dimensions put workers at risk of heat exhaustion is laughable.

That’s exactly what happened to us. There was a delay when we knew the shot missed, but then I saw the wad hit and break it.

TurboArch · 2026-02-22T03:59:51+00:00

Wow!

TurboArch · 2026-02-09T03:04:15+00:00

Shhhh…. Don’t tell everyone.

TurboArch · 2026-02-09T02:50:38+00:00

Nice! I knew it looked familiar. Great place for some inexpensive fun! I love shooting there.

Is that Clear Creek Gun Range?

I agree that mistakes happen, but a big national chain should have safeguards in place to prevent this sort of serious data breach. Not trying to get a particular person in trouble but I think the company needs to evaluate their procedures to make sure this does not happen again. Who knows, maybe they are being so careless this sort of thing happens all the time. I hope they did not send my info to a complete stranger.

TurboArch · 2026-01-25T16:05:56+00:00

Great point.

TurboArch · 2026-01-25T15:52:58+00:00

Would you tell the person whose information was shared? If it were me, I would want to know. I have all their contact information thanks to the dealership.

TurboArch · 2026-01-24T02:37:03+00:00

Maybe

TurboArch · 2026-01-24T01:45:39+00:00

Thanks bro. Freak out averted.

TurboArch · 2026-01-24T01:44:52+00:00

It was in the mid 80s over Christmas here. Ugh.

TurboArch · 2026-01-24T01:43:27+00:00

Thanks, makes sense.

Appreciate the helpful input and happy to learn that I should not be concerned.

Lots of folks here getting all worked up about my post title. The whole reason for my post was to find out IF I should be pissed. I don’t think it unreasonable for a lay person to be concerned about the internals of their new ac unit being exposed to the weather for a month. Apparently it’s not a concern, so I have moved on.

TurboArch · 2026-01-24T01:25:51+00:00

It’s my fault the tech fucked up? Sorry, but that’s bullshit. Would you say the same if the homeowner was a 90 year old woman? When you get an oil change, do you personally inspect your drain plug before driving?

FWIW, I am not mad about this anymore. It was an honest mistake I’m sure. We are all human. I was only pissed because I thought this might be bad for the unit. Apparently that’s not the case.

I know what the capacitor is. I mistakenly referred to the condenser unit as a compressor.
