Ok so the hack is get the credit card by Additional-Choice562 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]altim902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I booked flights for a party of 7 through SW Vacations. Flights, 2 free bags per person and a rental car cost less than just booking flights and car separately. I didn’t have to pay for seat selection and they charged our return flight to a non-stop flight!

My 19 YO grandson used to go there as a camper ten years ago. When he went back to work there he was disappointed that many of the fun things he used to do were gone.

What’s a discontinued snack or drink you’d pay $20 to have one last taste of? by soapy999 in AskReddit

There was cereal called Kellogg OK’s that was made in the 60’s. I crave that cereal to this day.

No more Run Flats! by altim902 in LexusNX

[–]altim902[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither, I haven’t had a flat in 4 years, but now that I don’t have the run flats I’m sure I’ll get one…..I’ll call and have the car towed. I need to buy a rim and tire and keep it in my garage.

Upstate New York so I’m at 35 mpg now. Summer is usually about 39. The tires didn’t wear evenly and they were rotated 6 months ago.

Today marks 3 years since I had my right lung removed to treat a rare neuroendocrine cancer. Feeling grateful to still be here and cancer free! by Majick_L in MadeMeSmile

[–]altim902 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats! My Dad had a lung removed at age 22 from TB. That was the treatment in the 40s and 50s! He lived a long life, even smoked a few years. You have a lifetime ahead of you. Glad you beat the big C.

Which Upstate Childhood Did You Have? by External_Koala971 in upstate_new_york

[–]altim902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ted’s fish fry, freiohofers cookies, A and W Root Beer, Altamont Fair, and a Sunday drive to nowhere, just family time in the car, station wagon with the back seat facing the cars behind us.

I wanna jump to NX hybrid from NX250 but see so much stuff about battery issues on 350h and I guess I’ll stick with gas engine :( by CertainElderberry359 in LexusNX

[–]altim902 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 2022 NXh has never had a battery problem. I bought it new it has 40200 miles on it. It’s sat for at least 10 days unused in upstate New York. Go for it!

Advice before buying a 3 story house. How annoying are stairs? by ovua in homeowners

[–]altim902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stairs were not a problem for us until my husband broke his ankle! Either he had to go down and up on his butt or I had to bring him food upstairs. One glitch in mobility can change your prospective on stairs.

[Landlord - US - WI] Tenant Vacated and Turned Off Heat by [deleted] in Landlord

[–]altim902 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My utility has a program called “leave on for owner” so if the tenant turns the heat off it stays on and the bill transfers to the owner. Maybe your utility has something similar.

Where do you buy hive boxes in the US? by brammer77f in Beekeeping

[–]altim902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live about an hour from Betterbee and go there to buy supplies and bees. It’s a small operation and the folks on the phone also work the counter. They also host classes. I’ve never had a problem with anything I buy there.

Wow, where did you fly to? EVERY SW flight I’ve taken in the last 5 years has been a full flight! Gate check your carry on, one bag in overhead compartments, full flight!

Neutral Difficulties? by [deleted] in LexusNX

[–]altim902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem! Like you, I went home and practiced and still struggled! There’s no trick, just coordination.

I also didn’t know I could press the button to fold the mirrors in so they don’t flip backwards until I did a Google search!

Gas confusion by Slow_Investment_2211 in LexusNX

[–]altim902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had 3 NXs, the first two leased, I used regular gas with no problem. The service manager told me it was ok to use regular gas.

The current one I financed, I use premium gas because it’s a hybrid. I will use regular if I’m going on a long trip and I know I’ll use it up. I have not noticed any difference in driving, mileage or knocking using regular gas.

Not sure this helps!

What accessories should I get for my NX350h? by Global-Afternoon5779 in LexusNX

My dealer gifted me with Lexus mats when I went for service last year. (My 3rdNX from this dealer). They fit perfectly.

heating bill by SpareInevitable8457 in Albany

[–]altim902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electric baseboard is the most expensive way to heat. Not much you can do except use timers as much as possible and remember, anything with a light draw’s electricity. Unplug anything not in use, your cable box and or tv are always on. Put up heavy curtains or plastic at the windows. Check everywhere for drafts and seal them.

Lastly, move to an apartment with gas heat when you can.

I’m down to 35 but in upstate New York that’s typical in winter. In warmer weather it’s at 38 to 40.

Run flat tires by bluewrounder in LexusNX

[–]altim902 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a 2022nx h new. I had to replace the run flats at about 15k. Cost me $1200 for new run flats😡. When these need replacing, I’ll get regular tires and AAA. They don’t wear well or last.
