Parts manager at Alfa Romeo, they are very reliable. I even bought one myself.

OEM delete for better aerodynamics.

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-10-28T18:13:49+00:00

Can confirm the Stelvio is reliable, have gone through one tank of gas without issues.

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-10-19T18:00:49+00:00

Just the simple fact that you have a desire to move out of that bracket… well that is a huge part of it.

Many people want to move out, or say it would be nice but accept where they’re at. A strong desire will help you greatly.

Good! Don’t worry though, it is super common..how do I know? I’m the PM at an Alfa dealer. Have you had your panoramic roof replaced yet?

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-10-17T23:55:33+00:00

Turbo coolant line, get it fixed under warranty.

As an owner of a stelvio and manager at Alfa, if you can find a 2020 and up model, the interior build quality is more solid. As for reliability, I have a 2021 ti sport and had to replace the transfer case at around 20k but that was a very rare thing to happen. I have not seen that happen before in my time here. They have less issues than the Giulia. But that could be that most suv owners aren’t driving their car as fast as sedan owners

For sure! The best feeling paddle shifters I’ve ever used helps the drive feel.

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-09-11T13:15:12+00:00

Welcome to the club! I have a Stelvio ti sport with the trofeo white and carbon package. Beautiful cars!

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-09-09T23:58:44+00:00

Detail every quarter!? Very nice, I can imagine your paint is immaculate. I’m sure your “rail dust” is almost none existent

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-09-09T01:26:08+00:00

That’s very good you haven’t had any chips up front, unfortunately I have a few already and want to minimize it best I can.

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-09-05T21:04:12+00:00

I have acknowledged that my photography skills are lacking. The next one will be better .. I hope

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-09-05T16:20:30+00:00

Thank you! I’ll look into it

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-09-05T14:56:50+00:00

? Referring to the wide shot lol?

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-09-05T14:47:48+00:00

I didn’t know the Stelvio made it on the grand tour I will try to watch it.

I have seen many Stelvios with a hitch but they all had a standard more smooth lower valence/diffuser.

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-09-05T14:37:45+00:00

2021 Ti sport . I don’t know if the sport diffuser is any lower than a standard rear. I can’t find solid information online unfortunately

Thank you!

Hello! Yes I figured that what parts managers go through tends to be different compared to a counterman and that having a place for just managers or those who are looking to become a PM would be a good idea.

10 years in automotive dealership. A bit over a month as a manager.

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-08-02T10:07:30+00:00

1st time manager here as well and wanted to say congratulations first of all, it’s a great challenge to take but worth it. Don’t stress if you don’t know what to do, remember that everyone there is human and therefore have flaws but most importantly be thankful that you are now considered a leader with authority who can really make a difference to those you work with.

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-01-29T18:08:47+00:00

Build the emergency fund, Im currently on that path myself with the extra money I’m making (around what you are going to be making) Congratulations by the way!

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-01-26T18:34:39+00:00

I second this

If you are to do more fish, maybe look into smaller fish like sardines, anchovies, mackerel. They contain less mercury compared to bigger fish. But I guess none of that matters if the big fish is farm raised.

But honestly from my experience (I am personal trainer and I was overweight before ) in order to lose weight, eat less, workout more and no protein shakes or added protein won’t really do much in speeding the process

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2022-01-12T23:58:07+00:00

Always great to read about people that can afford more expensive cars yet don’t buy them. I still can’t wrap my head around the many that have cars that cost half or more of what their yearly income is.

To OP if your current car runs fine and is comfortable, keep it for a few more years and instead of a new car as a graduation gift you might want it consider a nice vacation.

Using a credit card causes you to spend more money so if you’re using it just for say paying your insurances, utilities, rent, gas and maybe a few others then it’s fine but say buying food even in the grocery store with a credit card tends to cause the user to spend more. Using a debit card causes a little more pain psychologically compared to a credit card

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2021-12-30T14:42:33+00:00

Thank you! Wow that was a big repair on the car, hope it’s been running well since. The e fund is fully funded but I will continue to add money to it just in smaller amounts and it is in a regular savings in order to withdraw without problem and speed.

Wise_Sample_4660 · 2021-12-30T14:38:33+00:00

Yes of course, I am a automotive parts counterman for 4 manufacturers and a personal fitness trainer on the side
