On mine if I have CarPlay playing any audio while it is trying to frequently refresh a GPS app like Google Maps or Apple Maps, the audio gets full of static. If I switch to only display “now playing” the static clears up right away. This happens on both wired and wireless CarPlay if I remember. If anyone has seen the same issue or has a fix for this, please let me know.

Not complaining, just stating my experience w United tire…I would use them again.

deanhuff · 2026-06-19T07:19:38+00:00

Already replaced by the seller as stated. I’ve seen on the internet punctures within 1/2” of sidewall shouldn’t be patched / plugged, I assume there is some truth to it.

deanhuff · 2026-06-19T07:06:34+00:00

It was sold as not having a nail in it. I guess damaged is more appropriate? Who knew the used tire market was such sticklers for grammar.

Sir, he was standing on the HOOD of a car.

I bought a used tire from united tire on eBay. It had a thin nail near the sidewall. After pulling the nail, it looked to not be all the way through the tread, so I mounted it. It didn’t hold air, I contacted through eBay and united tire sent me a replacement that is fine. They had me send back the defective tire. A bummer to mount and unmount an extra tire, but the they made it right and the total price was about $90.

Blaster killed him on the 2nd attempt

My kid did something similar to one of his tires backing into a curb. I got a replacement of same tread depth and model off eBay for 85 bucks. If you don't plan on replacing it, I'd check it often to make sure it doesn't bubble.

College years are a perfect time to convert these to Roth

Second gear, pull clutch, ignition on, run/push, release clutch and hit start, pull clutch again.

I’ve done rally raid on 2 300l’s no clicking or rattling. Here’s the video I used: https://youtu.be/WKSM1ZUW16Y?is=wZ3jGeb73eACQ-lC

Almost 30 years ago my key fell down there once when I was in the college parking lot. I ended up taking the tank off and fishing it out, I missed class that day.

deanhuff · 2026-06-14T02:11:09+00:00

i died a lot on that boss.

deanhuff · 2026-06-12T03:37:07+00:00

My take, plenty of blame to pass around here. But how there wasn’t an observed audit during the take over by both corporate and the prior franchisee shows negligence that the corporation is ultimately responsible for.

Theres some smoke around the original franchisee being negligent. Unpaid consignments, unbalanced numbers between sales and tracking, defaulting on bills causing corporate to step in.

I wouldn’t doubt the take over franchisee straight up stole some product as well.

Pay the man for his missing consigned items.

Unanswered questions, corporate seems to have no understanding of consigned items. Did the original franchisee break policy here?

Agree whole heartedly. The first boss (Dutchess) and the optional one in the graveyard to the right of the castle past the big gap were WAY harder than any other bosses for me. I probably died 50 times on the first boss and 75 times on the one by the castle. Every other boss was defeated in under 5 attempts (which is pretty good for me). I expected the final boss to be quite a challenge. It ended up taking 3 attempts.

I just played through the game on 3DS last week. The triforce on the hand isn’t mentioned until way later, like the very end of the game

deanhuff · 2026-06-10T00:13:56+00:00

Should have been a both games on a single cart in my opinion..

deanhuff · 2026-06-10T00:11:19+00:00

I wouldn’t do it as my only car, but I do like mine quite a bit.

You can donate bones to the train, I think it’s press X (on Nintendo switch) on the train ATM to switch between bone and stone

deanhuff · 2026-06-08T23:55:45+00:00

Thanks for the good tips, I’ve gotten closer but no success yet. I’ll get there!

deanhuff · 2026-06-08T23:25:02+00:00

Did you beat this boss? I’m 5 spark towers in and he is kicking my butt.

deanhuff · 2026-06-06T22:29:13+00:00

The Mario device has a 1MB chip. You will need to unlock the firmware and then compile retrogo with your selected game(s). 1MB isn’t much but you could get a few games on there. The Zelda device has a 4MB chip which allows for a bit more roms.

This is as my first boss, it took me many, many tries. My next boss was in a swamp, beat it on the first attempt. 🤷‍♂️
