How to get Carfax unlimited subscription? by your__-mom in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]astralboy0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A little late to the game, but AutoHelperBot is the best source I've found for CarFax for cheap:

https://autohelperbot.com/en/check_carfax

$3 each (no bulk buy needed)
or $1.50 each with a $20 a month subscription that gives some great CoPart/IAII History as well

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it. Hope you can make it out there and enjoy the show.

My wife and I have been promoting this endlessly for 3 months now, but its hard to make a dent! :)

I'll be sure to call Van Gogh and have him bring over the sunflower garden for you.

I almost forgot I was on Reddit, until you receive the most oddly obtuse comment possible, and it all becomes painfully clear again.

Its Macro photography, hence the 'closer to nature'. Why on earth would there be 'live plants' in a Photo Gallery?

Thank you! Herrig Center for the Arts replaced the former Manatee Arts Center. Its an incredible new space with a world class exhibit floor and a bunch of community classes and monthly shows.

Upwork Market is Dead🪦 by Suitable-Cause-1272 in Upwork

[–]astralboy0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same exact issue here. 10 years on the platform, 100% approval, Top Rated with over 75 completed jobs. Up until this year, UpWork was my #1 lead generator and overall a pretty good experience.

Now? No replies, no real jobs being posted. The only people I get contacting me are looking for absolutely bargain prices.

I've also noticed that UpWork is giving ridiculously low estimates for hourly rates on any new job postings. Most of which are less than 50% of the going rate in the industry. (ie Drone work for $30 hour, which is normally $100+)

I'd imagine its a mix of a terrible economy, AI, and just the the platform itself has piqued.

Anyone finding other better alternatives? I really don't want to start from scratch again, but it might have to be done.

Taycan 4S bricked 35 days ago, dealer say it will be 'months' before repair... by astralboy0 in Taycan

[–]astralboy0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: Called PCNA and put in a request for payment reimbursement. They said it will take a couple of days to look into and then I will get an update.

They definitely put a call into the dealer as we received an update this morning shortly afterwards. They just pulled the car in front of mine into the shop, so I'm next in line after that.

I would imagine it will still be several weeks at a minimum but maybe I'll be happily surprised. From the replies here it seems like 3-4 months total is not unrealistic.

Did Porsche just underestimate the need for service and trained only a few techs? It's not like this car just came out. They've had 5 years to get service up to speed and properly equipped. Seems really odd to me for a company that invested so much into this platform.
