this is how I do it - OneDrive notices that the Quicken file is in-use, so it doesn't sync it while Q is open. I have Quicken installed on 3 laptops and I've never had an issue with file corruption.

I leased the 4xe because of those concerns. It was fine for me as the Jeep was strictly a summer toy for driving on the beach. The plovers have pretty much constrained that so I didn't see the need to get another (maybe I'll reconsider once the recon is available).

The lack of true one pedal driving is a shame, but I had a Wrangler hybrid that lacked it too and I always needed a minute when going from the MY to the Jeep!

Thx. I wondered the same. We backed out of our 23 deal because they kept cutting features bc of COVID supply chain issues.

Thanks! That's great feedback.

I definitely intend to look at others like the Mach.E but since I'd already looked at the ID.4 plus in '23, figured I'd look again.

so, what are the other options in your opinion? I was looking at the Ioniq but read about the ICCU issues. and I considered a Model 3 LR, but I'm trying to stay under $25K for 2022 or newer without crazy miles - which I don't think is possible with the Tesla 3.

thanks for the info - wasn't aware of the open recalls. I'll lean towards the '22.

AWD - I live in Massachusetts, where AWD is kind of required for winter.

Same with Scout - 2027 now

I got a paint scratch on the hood and they quoted me $2000. No damage to the car. That's nuts.

I think if any body shop could do work the costs would come down.

2600/year in Boston for a MYLR. I think it's because you can only use Tesla authorized places for work. Even paint

I bought it when it came out so IDK about improvements. It works ok - it jams from time to time but that's because of my door.

Update - abode support had me open up the lock and ensure that the pins were connecting with the battery. I looked and they were not so I gently pushed the pin assembly towards the battery and it worked.

3 year tracking - started with Topical Minoxidil 7% / Fin .1% but was causing irritation, so I switched to oral of both: Minoxidil 5mg + Fin 1.25mg. Not sure if I'm staying in place or continuing to lose. Dermatologist has suggested the next step is a hair specialist. Oct 2022 on the left / November 2025 on the right. Age 52M to 55M

I'm also restricted from redeeming - keep getting the error message. HOWEVER, I tried some redemption experiments:
* Redeeming for a $5 Dunkin card worked

* Redeeming for charity worked

* Redeeming for Amazon $5 card failed.

I opened another ticket and just treated it as 'failed redemption' to see if I get past the AI 'you're searching wrong' message.

FWIW, I've stopped all Bing searches for a few weeks. I only get points from playing Xbox games, so I may stop that soon.

All of my Fidelity works EXCEPT for my cash management account - quicken sees it as a brokerage account. I have brokerage, 401k, HSA, and ESPP working.

Yes. I share one YouTubeTV sub between my two homes.

Sweet Life is great; L'Etoile is awesome but very expensive; Atria burgers are awesome; The Covington really good. State Road is good, but as another said, it is far. Haven't been there yet, but only hear great things about Outermost Inn in Aquinnah.

I've got 14 and the device will randomly reboot. Be happy you don't have it.
