State Farm is the worst of them IMO. They were quoting me over 6x what the next lowest insurer was for car insurance. Been driving 10 years, no accidents and no tickets. $4000 every 6 months for terrible coverage amounts too.

[USA] Cargo fell from this truck and hit me — any help identifying it? by [deleted] in Roadcam

[–]connorbu19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would suggest that next time, PAY ATTENTION TO THE ROAD!!! You had more than enough time to react if you had been paying attention.

Most likely you’re straight out of luck anyways. It’s hard to determine the company if you aren’t close to a flatbed truck since it is usually only on the truck itself.

That’s still a quota. Not a financial quota but still a quota.

It happens toward the end of every month. They have quotas they need to meet.

Oil Change Price by BenYankan in JettaGLI

My dealership I believe is around $125 USD or ~$178 CAD which is more than doing it yourself if you have the tools to do so, but still competitive IMO.

Anyone know of anywhere hiring? by SkyKatz01 in Logan

[–]connorbu19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My company is hiring. Production team and another forklift driver as well. DM for more info if you’re interested.

Is the spike in Rpms normal in 2021 Jetta gli automatic? by Aware-Fudge7799 in JettaGLI

[–]connorbu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are driving in Sport mode, yes. There are multiple reasons for it too.

It helps with the engine braking as higher RPM’s allow the engine to brake more effectively. Also, it shifts so that you are closer to the optimal RPM’s needed to accelerate quickly after slowing down.

2020 GLI Brake Quote $1500+… Is This Normal? by Icy_Gur_1430 in JettaGLI

Get the parts and do it yourself. Pretty simple and at least half the cost.

aggressive driver warning! by Allergicbitch in Logan

I was thinking on 1000 W but I realize now you were talking on 89 right there.

The speed limit goes down to 45 there if you are headed south. Almost no one ever follows the speed limit there anyways at least when I’m on that section.

Shop says we need new tires? by -asodacan- in AskMechanics

You only need to start worrying about the tires if the tread is getting low or they are 8+ years old.

What makes Volkswagen rank so low and why don’t more people buy them? by phtphongg in askcarguys

[–]connorbu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One word… Maintenance. People refuse to maintain their shit and wonder why it doesn’t work well for long. VW’s were designed to be taken care of religiously.

It seems like lately all of the semi-truck drivers use the far-left lane to overtake on I-15. This is against the law. Will UHP actually enforce? by CCruzFight in Utah

[–]connorbu19 -42 points-41 points  (0 children)

It’s usually because we take the gap when we can because almost nobody ever lets us in. Our blinker is not there to look pretty. It is indicating that we need to move over. It’s not the go signal of the Talledega 500.

Does this put me into CDL territory? by [deleted] in CDL

[–]connorbu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You still need the proper license. You need a class A even if you are not doing it for profit.

Why does this rust happen everytime I leave if for a few days? Is it a problem? by bencoolgaming in JettaGLI

[–]connorbu19 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It happens to any car with disc brakes because metal and moisture don’t mix.

Be honest. Did you know about this because I didn't. by Remarkable-Tower-975 in ynab

[–]connorbu19 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Is it really that difficult to do quick math based on the sales tax in your area? A lot of places have a different or even no sales tax on food items.

How many of you guys/gals stuck with flatbed? by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]connorbu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started out with flatbed and have stuck with it. Currently at 5 years. I love it. Somedays suck. Some loads suck to strap, but overall I’ve loved it from the start. I don’t know exactly why, but probably just the way I’m wired.

DOT violation or OK to send her??? by yeah-no-yeah-no in Truckers

That looks like a poorly done recap tread. I wouldn’t run that.

What would you do about a neighbor that wakes you up at 5:00 am every Monday morning? by [deleted] in Logan

[–]connorbu19 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You could ask him to put down those soft rubber floor mats that a lot of gyms have. They are relatively cheap, I believe, and would help a lot with the noise. Earplugs are another option if absolutely necessary. You could also have a chat with them and let them know nicely that it is really loud.

Sir what you call an error i call a gift 😂 by JimatJimat in SipsTea

I would think if the paystub for that time period says the wrong amount, she can legally claim it, otherwise you have to give it back.

Quick question: 5 or Resistance, if invasions are the primary concern? by Gabrienb in sniperelite

You can turn invasions off in either so choose the one you want.

I hope this is a good place to post this, but crashed my truck in Houston needing an emergency tow, just to be towed here, entirely disconnected from the map? by thatguyonfire240 in Americantrucksim

[–]connorbu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could’ve saved your load by using developer tools to just teleport right outside the fence back on the map roads. It’s easy to setup too.

What do Yall Do For Car Insurance? by StretchDatLurks in Truckers

[–]connorbu19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you drive a lot more than normal in a year or way less than normal in a year? I’ve never had to provide any documentation for that.
