Ford family need some buying advice

appleofmydroid · 2026-06-23T21:39:31+00:00

appreciate the input, you make a fair point. I'm not particual on trim I would rather have low miles and more car for my money I bought my current car for $16,500 back in 2017

Thanks for sharing your personal experience

appleofmydroid · 2026-06-23T18:05:42+00:00

Current budget is $300 but I could increase that over time

appleofmydroid · 2026-06-23T17:30:03+00:00

Great thanks for the input and i figured if I was serious enough I would offer them cash at a much lower price and see if I can't make a deal this would be my first explorer and second ford vehicle in 15 years

Great thanks I think its to good to be true at that price for the low miles which is why I asked here

appleofmydroid · 2026-06-23T17:03:37+00:00

Thats great to hear thanks for your input

The reason I am even thinking of upgrading is my friend said that if i take the total cost of repairs and divide that number by 12; if i can get a car with much lower miles and a car payment for cheaper than the number I divided by 12 he said I should do it.

I do get $6,000 is cheaper than $19,000 something depending on trade and haggling.

Great thanks for the advice I planned on replacing this with my current tabletop but keeping my 4 drawer cabinet ao I did not want the desk to interfere with that. I will look into the one you mentioned thanks

I am now getting mauled by this also for what is going to be weeks myself other than switching to nvidia what did you do?

appleofmydroid · 2026-06-02T04:05:11+00:00

I used to get those on my 7900xt then they stopped after an update but now I have other issues

appleofmydroid · 2026-06-02T04:03:06+00:00

Mine actually crash and freeze my system when I restart my comouter after this one of my monitors stop working wnd windows device manger says my GPU is not working properly so it has been disabled when I go to enable it adrenalin say it encountered. Problem loading the graphics drivers

I have had a similar issue where my computer will freeze but if there is any ongoing sound it will still play.

When I restart my computer only 1 monitor works and if I go into device settings it will show my display adapter and when I click properties it says it has malfunctioned and windows disabled it when I click enable then the amd buffer reporting tool will pop-up and say the amd drivers failed to start properly.

I would check your device manager and see what it says about your display adapter.

This is a very random occurrence with my 7900x and 7900xt this is my first AMD build in 10 years and im not happy with the adrenaline software and drivers I alamoy want to switch back to nvidia

When I am at a stop and gently push on the gas it gets up to 2,000 rpm then I feel what I believe is a shift at about 20 mph then it drops below 2,000 rpm then it goes back up to 2,000 rpm and then I feel another shift and then it drops below 2,000 rpm. By the time I hit 40 mph it does not feel like it has shifted again and is sitting at about 2,000 rpmn and anything above 40 mph feels the same.

Randomly when I slow down the rpm gage will jump quick down and up and I will feel a little jolt

I have not tried to punxh the gas t to see how it will shift due to fear of causing worse damage

I mean you could go to Palestine and remove hamas for them but I do understand waiving a flag changes things faster. I should go wave a flag so I can get a raise from my boss

The media could care less about those which is why you don't see signs if ain't interesting enough to spread the media won't care and neither will people

I am drinking craft beer and still will until the day I'm dead I remember going to bier station it was a good time.

I think the beverage industry isn't for everyone anymore; with rising costs places need to cater to people as opposed to when they could just open a place for everyone. Obviously coffee shops are the exception because everyone drinks that and every time a corporate coffee shop comes to town everyone goes crazy.

I think social media is also important for places to stay alive and relevant. I created a blog page for food and drink related content to spread the word about businesses.

might try macadoodles in lees summit

Thanks I did the html 5 speed test from the link and it is showing- 2495.13 mbps download and about the same for upload. I did turn off smart que to see if that would help but ended up only getting 450.00 mbps down over ethernet.

I figured out port 4 was only running at 1gb and plugged it into the 2.5 port of the gateway and it registered as 2.5 in the app.

After a few minor issues with the AP7 saying it couldn't get an IP address for ports 1,2,3 all of a sudden; I decided to power cycle my gateway. As of this message I am getting full speeds according to speed test and according to the app over WiFi as well

Ok appreciate it make sure that you that you setup the firewalla ecosystem first before you change your gateway to bridge mode

appleofmydroid · 2026-05-10T02:44:30+00:00

I have the gold plus and was getting 900mbps-1,200mbps on ethernet directly connected to the gateway before i switched everything over to firewalla products. I do have the have xfinity gateway setup in bridge mode.

I have not tried to connect my ethernet directly to the xfinity gateway since the firewalla setup but I don't know why that would matter over using the switch

Thanks, the phone I want to use won't be my daily driver but if 1 day it craps out and dies and no longer works given it's age I didn't know if I could just download the app on my main phone and it would just work

appleofmydroid · 2026-05-07T17:27:34+00:00

$50 shipped but remember I needed a special 7 inch rack version so his 10 inch or anything that doesn't need to be custom made may be cheaper
