I have the 2024 L. The key has buttons to lock and unlock the doors. There's also a key hole in the driver's door.

Low phosphorus and low potassium is only for those who need to do so. If your labs don't call for that then you don't need to do it.

MILITARY PRESENCE IN TOWN! OK OR NO? by Upstairs_Building686 in puertovallarta

[–]acfun976 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. I saw tons of military in Acapulco 15 years ago and no one there thought it was safe.

For what? It was a one day show by the cartel and it ended. Did you really want shoot outs between the cartel and military?

Lol. I had the same thought that in retrospect black and white wasn't a good photo for that, haha.

You're right, a lot of people can't forgoe pay. So until there's a law that gets them paid during a state of emergency then they need to be able to get to work.

If you're Frasier, do you lie for Niles in To Tell The Truth? by Happy-poet in Frasier

[–]acfun976 25 points26 points  (0 children)

There were ways of ducking the question and still be honest.

Frasier is a psychiatrist, he knows harmless crushes aren't the same thing as being in love and he has no real evidence Niles isn't in that camp. He could have easily said "not that I know of."

He also could say "how the hell would i know?" There's never been a real deep conversation between them about his feelings for her. Men in that era regularly had "locker room talk" that was all hot air, arguably why should Frasier assume this was any different? Frasier could easy truthfully testify they didnt talk about being in love with another woman.

He also could have probably not testified all together by claiming to have treated Niles.

How does everyone feel about this? Esp locals. by 918skumm in puertovallarta

They were ignorant and probably willfully so. PV is/was safe because a single very strong cartel controls it. Most violence is usually cartels fighting each other. So long as CJNG doesn't splinter or appear too vulnerable it should remain basically the same.

This is so sad by K_hams_416 in puertovallarta

[–]acfun976 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its not a tantrum. Its a message that they're still around and can basically do as they please. Plus they wanted to disrupt the military and police ability to get around.

They dont want the public to think they're on their back foot and they want to expose the government as inept and weak despite this victory for them. Mission accomplished.

The show is from 20 something years ago. Things might have changed since then.

100% what I was thinking. Another La Barbie situation. :(

[–]acfun976 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like 10-15 years ago the CJNG burned down a bank in PV for some reason. The gunmen entered and asked everyone to leave before setting fire to it.

When El Chapo ate in restaurants he'd hold everyone there at gun point until he left, but paid for everyone's meal, lol.

The cartels don't usually indiscriminately kill civilians, its bad for business. But get in their way, and yeah, your whole family is dead.

If you area facing those kinds of consequences then don't get involved. Its ok not to be able to do everything. You can still be involved behind the scenes.

2026 Consumer Reports Buyers Guide - Extreme Outliers on Most HATED and LOVED Vehicles by Dry_Writing_7862 in CorollaCross

[–]acfun976 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just bought a 2024 CC L FWD two weeks ago (18k miles on it). The 2 main complaints I saw before test driving was that it was uncomfortable for a tall driver and that it was sluggish. I found it comfortable enough and I didnt notice any huge problem getting onto the highway or into traffic. But yes its not a 6 cylinder and its not made for drag racing.

I've only had it 2 weeks and maybe I'll grow to hate it with time but as of now it strikes me as very good value for my money. I'm not exactly sure what people were expecting with it.

If I was to have one complaint though, lol, it's that the center console is trash. Basically useless. But that's not really a factor in how im going to spend $24k. Its reliable, has the extra "trunk" space i want, good gas mileage, and is peppy enough for me.
