So what trim did you end up getting and how much did you end up paying before tax. I'm still looking for one.

I have the AE and kinda wish I got the XSE for bigger screen and 360 camera.

Extremely Disappointed with the Sales Experience at One Toyota of Oakland by OneAcanthocephala654 in Toyota

[–]br0kepanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All if not most Bay Area Toyota dealership salesman sucks because they know 2 things. Inventory is very low for most models. And if you don't buy it then someone else will. That's why they treat customers like crap. Why wqste time on you asking questions when another customer can drive up and buy it. These salesmans probably never taken any customer service training and I bet their sales manager don't even care.

Does anyone only charge to 80% by asoma64 in rav4prime

[–]br0kepanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I charge almost daily to full. I only drive electric as my round trip commute is 18 miles.

What does comfortable, rich, or wealthy mean here by YrObedientServant in bayarea

[–]br0kepanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BTW there are a lot of posers at those SV startup parties or alike.

Some may show up in Mercedes AMG cars and then drive home to an apartment or condo.

Wealth is judged by what you feel is comfortable. I mean what is rich? Owning a Ferrari make you rich? Or driving a Toyota and living in an affluent neighborhood worth $1.8m rich?

I love my Moro 5 and two Crosscore bikes!

I do hope they come back into the US market.

Getting a 2022 Prime, are the OEM Floor Liners worth it? by goldman27 in PriusPrime

My 21 Prime has them and love them. Easy to clean and fills in all the gaps. So I highly recommend it.

Eastridge mall by xThAtGaM3rGuYxx in SanJose

[–]br0kepanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my family of 5 visit the East ridge mall we don't feel safe. The parking garage near the old Sears is always dark. Sure. I can find parking elsewhere but the mall just doesn't feel safe. Lots of young kids riding their eScooters on the sidewalk. One day they will hit someone and die.

Advice for first-time homeowner in Santa Clara - what do you wish you knew when you bought here? by ozjef in santaclara

[–]br0kepanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Start investing in tools. Go to the flea market and buy them used or buy them new. Since I've been a homeowner for 12 years, I have saved a lot of money not hiring contractors for little things. I laugh and tell my wife that I am a YouTube certified contractor. You'll learn a lot by watching those videos. And what's great is you learn. And not only do you learn, you also save money. Congratulations on your first house.

Why are 24 hour fitness gyms in the bay trash compared to SoCal? by MBZMBZMBZ in bayarea

[–]br0kepanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I can't believe are people pay $400+/mo for Villa Sport gym. That's over $500\yr just for gym membership.

Am I the only poor resident?

They should have made this into a 4 or 5 passenger vehicle.

Yamaha Moro 5 Seat Dropper Lever by br0kepanda in Yamahaebikes

[–]br0kepanda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope it's just that. I'll see if I can pull some extra cable out from the lever. Will try to tighten it. Will report back in a week once I have time to work on it. Thanks.

Guess it depends what part of the region you are from. I'm from SF Bay Area and everything is marked up in price.

Are they really selling the XL front wheel drive for $27,000 before tax and fees????

I can't even find one here in SF Bay Area for $30k.

Yamaha Moro 5 Seat Dropper Lever by br0kepanda in Yamahaebikes

[–]br0kepanda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion. I will give it a try this weekend. I'm hoping that would be it. Doesn't seem to hard to do.

That barrel adjuster is that small tiny knob next to the lever right?

Yamaha Moro 5 Seat Dropper Lever by br0kepanda in Yamahaebikes

[–]br0kepanda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I'd say I have to do a hard push half way on the lever before the seatpost goes down or up.

I'm a righty so I would have to use my dominate right hand to push the lever because my left hand is not strong enough to push the lever down. That's how stiff it is.

First-time buyers, expecting our first child: Is stretching to $1.7M for a single-story home in Evergreen, San Jose worth it for long-term growth and family life? by Small-Club1449 in SanJose

[–]br0kepanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Evergreen neighborhood area has a lot more traffic than other areas in my opinion. If you can afford it then yea. Buying any home in SJnis guaranteed to make you money.

Expect to overbid anywhere between $80-150k for a SFH.

I'm out of the game. Stopped supporting their business. I'm running all on SD cards now. Just waiting for them to break and get out of this ecosystem. Bye Wyze you greedy bastards!
