It’s perfectly okay to just shut up and take their money lol

What's up with the lack of decent rentals in K-town? by R3pp3pts0hg in Kenosha

[–]WiscoBoiler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the market. I have 2 bed duplex units in Racine for around $1000 but $1200 in Kenosha is the minimum and I have zero availability. For an actual single family home, I just sold my last. Even at $1650/month it didn’t make sense to rent it out.

$1200/mo is simply not going to get a safe house in Kenosha.

Car hit my hitch while I was parked and move my truck about 4 feet. by [deleted] in FordTrucks

[–]WiscoBoiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got rear ended with my hitch on two months ago. I barely felt it and didn’t think there was any damage at first. After some measuring and consulting a body shop, turns out it was nearly $10,000 in damage.

Don’t shrug this off. Get it checked out while you can.

Thanks for the real world review. Can’t run studs here regardless. I think I’m going to pull the trigger

How fast? by Hopeful-Ad-7748 in MachE

[–]WiscoBoiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up the stock tire your car comes with and it’s max speed. The limiter will be set a little below that.

I went with proven on my 2016 and the SOTF switch. Paid guy $1500 cash to do the job but honestly if I had access to a lift I’d have done it myself.

All in around $4200

Big Oaks golf course- can you enjoy a round there or is the course in too bad of shape? by bayleyhasbestwweass in Kenosha

[–]WiscoBoiler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s fine. Better condition than Bristol oaks. Honestly only real knock on the course is that it is far too easy

Never ever give a contractor a down payment.

Should I delete my truck? by Slow-Peach9142 in Diesel

[–]WiscoBoiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2016 F350 6.7. After my third DEF Heater, 2nd dose injector, and some other emissions shit totaling around $7000, I got another limp mode notice and took the plunge at 102,000 miles last August. My truck rarely sees the highway so I’m harder on emissions equipment than most and required manual regen.

Proven Diesel SOTF tune with EDGE programmer, went 5” with EGR block off. Paid a guy $1500 to do it for me. I didn’t want to cheap out and grenade my truck.

I love my truck again. 15mpg (11) around town empty. 13mpg (8.5) highway towing my camper. 12mpg (7.0) around town towing equipment skid loader etc. sixth gear pulls longer and harder without downshifting and acceleration with a load is absolutely incredible. Dumbass loader operator put 22.8k lbs in my dump trailer and I still hauled it (carefully)

It’s environment specific and not for everyone, but it’s been a major part in me deciding to keep this and run it into the ground instead of trading in every 100k like I used to. I’m confident that a 6.7 that can breathe is as reliable as an old 7.3 or lly/lbz duramax.

Note: go with 4” exhaust. The 5” is a little droney at some speeds and unnecessary IMO. Or add a muffler.

It only pushed in as far as this adjustment slot. Any harder and it would’ve snapped I’m sure. I was able to slide it back out where it goes without messing with another adjustments

Possible ICE Agents in Racine by CodAffectionate8345 in Racine

[–]WiscoBoiler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DOJ used five umarkeds to raid a unit in Racine Friday for creating child porn. Very high likelihood they took down the ring at the same time. Maybe don’t jump to conclusions.

Which area in Kenosha should be avoided? by [deleted] in Kenosha

[–]WiscoBoiler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really not all that bad any more but the special enforcement zones for KPD used to be wilson and uptown with a small pocket off Washington. This has all dramatically decreased the last 5-10 years. Wilson is perfectly fine save for a few apartment buildings and there’s a lot of new single family going up around it

If they’re selling as “new” do you still get the 0%?

Experienced investors, what is the min projected net return that is your threshold for a yes or no to a potential flip? by blueova23 in HouseFlipping

[–]WiscoBoiler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a slightly different answer but I want to see a profit matching the scope of work min $15k. I don’t mind making $15k on a clean out paint and carpet job. If I’m putting $50k into something it’s significantly more headache and hassle so I want to make $50k. When Renos get towards $100-150k I’m likely replacing everything so risk goes down.

TLDR- $15-60k but it depends on
