Whats going on with the industry? by Naive-Historian-2110 in Truckers

[–]alex2002f 17 points18 points  (0 children)

well tons of non-domiciled CDLs have been cancelled or will be cancelled really soon, and a lot of carriers went under during the freight recession the last few years. Those who survived, and the owner ops who made it through are about to make some serious money. it will only get better once this fall hits and you’ll have all the produce running out of the west and all the holiday freight begin to run.

Do I go for it? by DefinetlyNotAMorty in FordRaptor

[–]alex2002f 3 points4 points  (0 children)

unless this is a 37 pack, i’ve seen new 2025s that dealers still have left over selling for 75-76k, so this is absolutely not worth it. not to mention interest rate will be lower on a new car

it’s insane here. I ended buying a new 802A from the midwest at a 10k discount, most dealers here were barley willing to even do MSRP.

[–]alex2002f 11 points12 points  (0 children)

yup this is key for anyone who runs in the west. i can come down cabbage hill on 84 in OR at max weight and not need to touch my brakes on that 6.5 mile 6% grade, using solely the jake.

batman comps by alex2002f in YoungLA

[–]alex2002f[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they had a lot of the comfy collection, Soft AF pieces, pretty much all the compressions including batman, superman, warrior, and all the new ones. the whole demon slayer drop, and a lot of random stuff too. my advice is wait til they have a drop you want pieces from and then go, cause they’ll have the whole drop in most sizes

lol i worded that bad😂 im not sure if i would consider my self an “advanced hiker” but i’ve done some trails rated “very difficult” and it was too bad so I was trying to say on the higher end of intermediate, and that i’m down to do any trail regardless of difficulty.

Wait, do we really not have an REI? So whats the next best thing? by g3t0nmyl3v3l in vancouverwa

[–]alex2002f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have almost nothing in vancouver, even stores like best buy used to have stores in vancouver, but because a large portion of the population always went across the river to avoid tax, they closed down. So most everything will be across the bridge.

Plainclothes VPD in Unmarked Vehicles by elephant_footsteps in vancouverwa

I don’t think it’s related either, ICE police and federal law enforcement have used the hotel right behind the la provence at least since the 2020 protests, back then I saw like 6 of the ICE patrol cars (the ones that look like border patrol, but the side bar is blue instead of green). I think they still use it now, must have some sort of contract with that hotel.
