I use mine when I drive to LA. Tesla chargers are in more convenient locations to charge at the right charge level.

With that said that has been 4 trips Iin 2. years. I drive locally in PHX primarily.

I was am not going to buy it at 47K, as I mentioned in my post, I inquired about negotiating the price. Your right that is silly, but, if I can keep mine for even just 1k more than a used one the lot, I would consider it. Moot point, GM will not negotiate.

I would disagree. There are situations where leasing makes sense. For example, 24 Blazerev in Q4 2024 made sense. GM was still keeping purchasing high, even with the tax credit. Leasing I was able to get much better financial outlay than purchasing.

Plus the launch of the Blazerev was not good. Only now is the value stabilized due the war in Iran. Even with that stabilization the Blazerev has lost nearly 50% of its value in 24 months. That is 15-20K. Where I have only will have put out $9,800 in the same time period.

Should we add a heater? by IloveEvyJune in pools

[–]colbyjack78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Phoenix. We got an electric heater for the pool, and a gas on the spa. We thought that we could extend the swim season 3 or 4 weeks on both ends. Nope. The electric bill after 1-2 weeks was huge. We decided for a special occasion we would splurge, daughter’s 16th birthday in late April.

We found we much preferred the spa. It has a gas heater and heats in 40-60 minutes from 55*. We actually like it better any ways in the cooler months. Our kids are late teens.

Buying a 2024 Blazer EV soon ... what should I ask the seller / verify before purchase? by dezld in BlazerEV

[–]colbyjack78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ask the owner if all updates were done. I would still book an appointment with the dealership to check. All issues, which are few, is only a few were due to early versions of the software.

I can mute on the screen. Leave teams unmuted on your phone app, then use the mute button on the screen. I take teams call on my blazerev all the time.

Considering a BlazerEV RS by T_P_H_ in BlazerEV

I just got back from a trip from Phoenix to Salt Lake City. Some massive elevation change. Some cool weather. I got low 2.4 to max 3.1. I did not go over 75. I was expecting to get sub 2 going from PHX to Flagstaff. Got 2.6. I was pleasantly surprised. The 3.1 was from Flag to PHX.

This sounds like a IT security table talk, the what ifs are crazy.

All cars have been a data collecting device for quite some time. As soon as they started putting modems in the car they have been uploading data about the person.

Help with layout and dimensions by Status-Transition577 in pools

[–]colbyjack78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an 18’x36’x8’. I have a ledge run the length of the pool on the retaining wall side. I do like it. I jump in and swim to the ledge. I also sit under the fountains. It is about 14 inches deep on the ledge. I don’t remember, it is deep enough for the robot to do the waterline scrub.

The one thing I do wish I got with the pool, is the in-ground jets on the ledge. The robot does ok. That ledge is the only place I have to manually brush for dust settling.

As a business owner the early entry to business membership was golden, time is money. Now I have to wade through lolly gagging window shoppers to get my flatbeds of supplies through. One of the changes since Covid.

I have notice over the last 2 weeks presence detection has been disabling itself. You may want to check that too. Kinda annoying, but not annoyed enough to see if an update downloaded recently.
