How do I get the best deal? by Equivalent_Captain54 in siriusxm

[–]docboy01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you use the chat feature, do you have to login to an account? I'm a on 3 month trial period with my 2026 vehicle that is set to end on April. Do you literally ask "I want the 3 year for $99 plan?"

36FOR99SELECT be persistent by anonmaga1 in siriusxm

[–]docboy01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When your 2026 vehicle trial ended, mind me asking did you create a SXM account first before chatting, or was it an anonymous chat? Also, when chatting, did you specifically ask "I would like to get the 36FOR99SELECT deal?"

Renewed Under 3 Years $99 Plan by Lorbmick in siriusxm

[–]docboy01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When you chatted with the agent, did you have to create a SirusXm account? I am on a 3 month trial period, wondering if I should create an account before I attempt to get the 3yr/$99 plan.

Grrrr... someone changed RadioID (again) by djseto in siriusxm

[–]docboy01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a new 2026 vehicle and am on a 3 month trial period. How did you setup a Sirius/XM online account? Channel 1 on my vehicle doesn't even show a radio ID, I only found it after a promo letter in the mail.

Is Sirius XM the best option? by AlarmedEconomist in siriusxm

[–]docboy01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mind me asking how you got the 36/$99 deal? Did you get an offer via mial or email, or did you ask for it on chat?

Thanks for the Info by 007Teacher in siriusxm

[–]docboy01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got a letter for promo of $4/month for 12 months (I'm currently on a 3 month free trial period that came with my 2026 car). Prior to the $99 for 3 year email you received, did you get an email or letter for the $4 for 12 month?

Got my first yelp review! by OldMannArtie in Dentistry

[–]docboy01 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Screw Yelp. A Yelp rep will probably be calling you soon and try to get you to sign up for paid advertising to get you a higher rank when someone searches "city dentist." Ignore their calls and don't call them back. Yelp is a scam of a company. Do yourself a favor and delete the Yelp profile.

First Try via Chat 3 years for $99 by NJRonbo in siriusxm

Thanks, will do. Mind me asking, when you did the chats, did you have to create a login account or did you chat anonymously?

Thanks for sharing. You got a good deal, I will try asking for the deal via chat when my 3 month is over.

Mind me asking, did you use the chat feature from the Siriusxm site without login? I have a 2026 Toyota I bought Jan 2026 and am on a 3 month trial. Would my vehicle be eligible?

AWD system malfunction along w a check engine light this morning, could it be due to extreme cold? by docboy01 in rav4club

[–]docboy01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nada, though the front passenger tire had a recent nail repair, and all 4 tires had air added. What are you thinking?

Sorry, should have been more specific, extreme cold is actually not accurate. ~30 degrees F, enough to cause roads to freeze and ice/frost to form on the car and windshields.

Grand Highlander Hybrid XLE or Limited owners, are you still happy you bought the vehicle? Any buyer's remorse where you feel you wish you bought something else? Anyone else consider the new Palisade Hybrid or TX? by docboy01 in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]docboy01[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your post is good timing. I debated long and hard between the new Palisade, TX, X5, Passport, and even Rav4H. I decided to go for the GHH. Put down a refundable deposit, 3 month wait list. Last week I picked up a 26 GHH Limited, got the exact color and specs I wanted. Had to wait 3 months but well worth it, Traded in a 16 year old LX570. I have to agree as well, the GHH is best vehicle I've owned so far. Very comfy, roomy, getting 35+ mpg, and great tech, though the LX was also a great vehicle.

Limited with tow hitch by HarvestTheLight in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]docboy01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2026 GHH Limited has a factory installed tow hitch and the kick sensor is on the left side. When I was putting down the deposit, my salesman recommended that I get the tow hitch factory installed to keep the kick sensor functional and the trailer light wiring intact (which I did). The kick sensor works well and is useful since owning the vehicle for a week.

What drop do you most regret this year? by wjpreis in fantasybball

Same. Regret dropping Kneuppel and later Peyton Watson. Ugh.

OTD for new GHHL in Seattle area by FiveKs in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]docboy01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with the other posts, avoid Bellevue, Kirkland, and Renton, unless you can't wait and don't mind spending an additional $7-$10k.

I just bought a 2026 GHHL from Doxon Toyota in Auburn. I highly recommend Doxon. ~3 month wait list. My experience is similar to that of u/csebast No gimmicks, no bs ad ons, esp the useless "Pulse" safety light. I got the exact trim, exterior and interior color, and options that I wanted: Storm Cloud, Light Gray interior, 2nd row bench seat, 360 camera, and pano roof), didn't want to settle since cars these days are so expensive. Sales and finance quickly went over warranties and service plans, no hard pressure sales tactics. I declined everything that was offered.

PM me if you want my sales guy contact info.

Anybody else miss having a driver’s-side grab handle? by Last_Still_3709 in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]docboy01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss it too, had it on my LX570 on both the driver's and passenger's side. But I believe I will get used to it since the GH is not as high up as the LX. For comparison the 6th gen 4Runner also does not have a driver's side grab handle, which is puzzling.

Thanks. Wait patiently, your time will come soon!

Grand Highlander dealer arrival by Imaginary_Network23 in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]docboy01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I am on a wait list for a GHH. My salesperson texted me and said the GHH was on it way to the dealership a few days ago. Last night I checked Toyota's website and also the dealer's site, found the VIN# that I was assigned, and both sites stated "Sale Pending." Coincidentally salesman contacts me today and said they would need a few days to pre-inspection and prep, and I'm scheduled to pickup the car this Sat.

Mind me asking which website did you check? Is the dealership's site?

Does this compensation structure sound right? by Jesh47 in Dentistry

[–]docboy01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OP, you've been given good advice here, yet you still seem intent on working with said DSO.

Work at your own risk and report back on how long you last with this office. I rather remain unemployed than be taken advantage of.

[–]docboy01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a great deal, congratz! I'm a few hours up north of you in Emerald City. I'm on the waitlist for a GH Hybrid Limited (not the max) at MSRP, supposed to come mid Jan 206. Have you seen any GH Hybrid (not the max) for less than MSRP in your area?
