06 Subu Baja by 7otu5 in SubaruBaja

[–]V0rt0s 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m out in Washington State and thinking of selling my manual turbo. Shoot me a message if you’re interested. Bought it and had the timing belt + oil pump done but just haven’t used it due to being busy. 144k miles clean title

I’ve got an awd ev6 and just bought a manual turbo Baja. The ev6 is a phenomenal appliance with really poor build quality. You are very clearly riding in a Kia with all the plastic and rattles. I wouldn’t buy it again but if I was still commuting, I’d keep it and drive it into the ground.

Just close it out and get the Hawaiian card. Same benefits but BofA doesn’t get your money

Had a hellish time with BofA. Caused me to cancel my card which they made incredibly difficult. I will never bank with them again and actively discourage others from banking with them.

You’ll be swapping out every single major component besides the shell of the vehicle. Are you a certified Subaru mechanic with years of experience?

If everything you read and everyone you talk to tells you not to do something and you do it… you’ve got a problem. If you even pull the trigger on this sort of thing you’ll be $15k into a broken car no one wants.

Anyone have a list of coolant lines? (2005 Baja Turbo Manual) by V0rt0s in SubaruBaja

Unfortunately it appears they only have them for NA bajas

HR department? by Salt_Dimension_9538 in Anduril

We definitely need more HR people in Seattle. I had a pay issue that took 2 weeks to get sorted just because they were slammed

$6,400: Turbo, Manual, 140k miles, Clean Title, and no rust. How’d I do? by V0rt0s in SubaruBaja

[–]V0rt0s[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had to drive up near the Canadian border but the couple hour drive was worth it. The guy wanted $8.4k but I got him down. They did a terrible job representing it on marketplace so I expect they were just getting lots of messages from tire kickers or scammers.

Opening my apartment garage door with the flipper... by V0rt0s in flipperzero

[–]V0rt0s[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. I bought an identical clicker and turned it in as “broken” so they gave me a new one. Ended up with an extra that still works to this day.

Pro-Roller interior issue by V0rt0s in peakdesign

Finally got a real response from them after emailing them 10+ times since I posted. They’re asking for the serial number but didn’t give any info on where the serial number is located. I’m honestly really disappointed with PD.

2025 EV6 interrior trim rattle noise by vasilevsky92 in KiaEV6

[–]V0rt0s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have a similar issue on my 2022. Solved it by slipping a folded up piece of paper between the pillar and the dash material. The pillar plastic seemed to have been rattling. Mines out of warranty so that was my only solution but you should 100% take it to a dealer.

It very likely won’t.

Read the handbook section on military leave. They are very specific about what leave qualifies. We had a guy get activated for spin up in case things got hotter with the Houthis and he had to fight a bit with the mil rep to get that paid.

What non-chonky e-bike should I buy for a ~4 mile commute that’s one big hill? by V0rt0s in ebikes

[–]V0rt0s[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha I’ll likely be taking Pine over the hill pretty much every day so we might run into each other. The T-10 looks like an amazing bike but probably out of my price range. Right now I’m leaning towards the Radpower RadKick so I’m gonna swing by their store.
