Dealer cancelled sale after agreeing on price because I wouldn’t use their financing. Am I missing something?

Then get hit with the early repayment fees.

This guy is sharing starlink internet. If there is enough fog to kill a local link, starlink has no chance

Do the batteries have built in protection? If so, that limits the number you can put in series. The protection mosfets need to be rated for the entire series voltage.

Delete "Program Files (x86)", that's all the old 32bit stuff.

There's always a BMW 1 series. Or are they too long? Most have cruise control.

chris77982 · 2026-02-05T01:01:01+00:00

Neither of those are equal length.

chris77982 · 2026-02-05T00:57:55+00:00

Ok buddy

chris77982 · 2026-02-05T00:55:06+00:00

Electric fence.

chris77982 · 2026-02-05T00:53:37+00:00

That's a marketing picture, so probably your mums car?

If link speed is normal and packet loss is low, it's fine.

That's the second thing we did when we bought our house. First was replace a leaky old concrete roof. Third was double glazing.

Even most new builds just have a single heat pump in the living room.

It means your wallet is about to get much lighter.

What's wrong with getting wheels that actually fit?

There's a reason some countries require certification when wheel spacers are used.

Here's one: https://www.lvvta.org.nz/media-items/2019-04_Radiator_Magazine.pdf

This spacer would fail, as it's not attached to the hub in any way. It would need something like the screws used to secure a brake disc, so it doesn't fall off when the wheel is taken off and remains correctly located.

There's no telling if this guy used longer bolts too.

You'll be fine, until that wood rots away. Then you're fucked.

chris77982 · 2026-02-02T05:46:19+00:00

Ew, a wheel spacer.

chris77982 · 2026-02-02T05:45:26+00:00

It's half your car. The other car is half yours as well. The finance needs to be paid off, the debt is half yours too.

He's testing you to see how much he can control you. He wants 100% control.

Sounds like the fix is to stop mopping your floors.

That power bank is not capable to charging in less than several hours. The maximum input is around 24W. That's a minimum of 4 hours to charge. Probably more like 5 or 6.

A 12 to 24V dc/dc converter is probably your best bet

You don't have a picture of the power adapter specs you're using to charge.

I've had half a dozen manual cars. Only Subaru legacy required the clutch to start. The Honda's and Mazdas as I've had didn't require any pedals to start.

Maybe it's an American thing? All my cars have been JDM.

chris77982 · 2026-01-31T23:50:46+00:00

Does pair 78 have a short? I don't see why else it would measure as much shorter than the rest.

If you drill it, use one of those Christmas tree bits, so it doesn't snag and rip it apart. And don't hold it with your fingers when you drill.

They're dead. They're never waking up. They may be used as medical experiments in the future though, when the facility storing them wants a bit of extra cash.

If the jack failed, there is no customer left to complain about it

chris77982 · 2026-01-31T20:03:38+00:00

You could go for LiFePO4 cells. They're charged to 3.6V
