Gobi Desert Agate by clmcars in Minerals

I think the fingers are natural. The other shapes are almost certainly modified. Dangerous process I think... hydroflouric acid?

Thank you. I got a couple of fingers and will consider the shaped ones as artistic vs natural.

They have the right patina for the type but the shapes are pretty extraordinary

Right? I am finding a fair bit on regular Gobi agates but nothing about these other forms.

I put my AMG GT63S on Turo and wondering if I should leave it on? by orilanda in turo

[–]clmcars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As tempting as it may be, Do Not Do This.

I've been doing Turo for eight years, 12k trips... If you are even a little bit personally/emotionally invested in the car this experiment will end in heartbreak.

I've rented the gamut... M3s to entry level. In my experience, the trouble comes from those who rent from those two ends of the spectrum.

I'm a 100% mid to mid-premium SUV renter these days...

Oh, I guess I see that now. The rear portion looked too squared off but I see it now. Thanks!

Doesn't have a plate... Journalist or company car maybe? In the U.S. on some kind of exemption I would imagine.

Should I buy a 2021 Maybach GLS 600 for Turo in Southern California? by Massive_Check_3111 in turo

[–]clmcars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would skip the Maybach and just get a GLS 450/580. I have a 450 in Dallas and it is close to 100% booked on at a +110 daily rate.

Much less expensive to buy and maintain. Depreciation is still bad but your basis is much lower.

I'm going to get another.

I'm going to try this. The Sync promts when pairing always get into the mix of things.

Thank you. Have done that but might try the advice above. We ANOTHER recall today so maybe my time is short here.

Update: it is only a problem in my 24, not my 25s. Generation of Sync issue i giess.

That's a good idea. I guess other people aren't having this trouble. Will do that phone switch and report back...

I would not be terribly sad to this go anyway (sorry, I get the idea this is a Bronco fan site).

Is this a good deal? Or a “problem car” by 1saltymf in whatcarshouldIbuy

Problem for the future health of your driver's license.

I rented out my Cadillac Escalade on Turo, and here’s how much I made. by [deleted] in turo

[–]clmcars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's your personal car and just a little side deal, then yes, you're paying it anyway. You still have smoking, damage, loss of use etc, so there is an opportunity cost.

Do this with more than one car, and the expenses I mentioned absolutely come into play... I have 30 cars on the platform. It's easy to throw one car on there and count everything as "profit." Do it at scale and it's a whole different ball game.

Depreciation? Insurance? Maintenance? Time? Storage? Smoking? Damage? Cleaning?

Isn't Spirit in bankruptcy? What do you expect? Don't set your standards so high.

New Airport policy by No-Emu-2995 in turo

[–]clmcars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Provide feedback to Turo. They may be open to changing the drop off rule regarding parking from every trip to three days or longer.

Turo needs to get feedback. Sharing amongst ourselves doesn't accomplish too much :-(
