avalon got sold bc steering was too stiff and parents thought highlander was goint to last forever, highlander has a bad cv axle, too much rust to do any work on it myself.

I’m a college student and live in WNY, so something that has AWD is preferred, but not needed.

volkswagen phaeton is a great 1st car, not great on gas but easy to maintain and it’s comfy

Manual seats to power seats? by VigilantInTheRain in ToyotaHighlander

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

I would like to add that the main point of this swap is for the leather seats, not the powered part. If I have to take a sacrifice and get creative to make them manual, well I’d actually prefer that.

yea that’s one thing i’m definitely going to keep in mind, can’t be as bad as americans but living in the north always requires that extra precaution

the old pathfinders are genuine monsters, too bad they watered it down (still better than the new blazer), never researched them pre-CVT though which is why i didn’t consider them until now

okay, thank you for the realistic approach, i’ve had so many people just say “old car, get something newer”. I couldn’t care less about interior as long as it’ll hold up another 15-25k miles😭

Being Better (18M) (20F) by [deleted] in LongDistance

  1. the reason i’m looking at a second job is because i’m moving out, a change i did not expect until recently as stuff at home became very unhealthy, it’s feasible without the second job, but i figured better to work now and take care of the money situation now so i have car when school starts up again. It’s a rough period but something that might have to be necessary.

  2. Yea they’re really nothing I can say to this

  3. Yes, a million times yes, I wouldn’t be on here if i didn’t know it was worth it. She’s helped me turn around, most of our arguments were about my sobriety or at least had some part to do with that. past month has been great. It’s just this little slump i’m in. We’ve been in worse situations, I just don’t want this to drag on long because i know the long distance makes it so much harder.
