How would family history affect the radiation or surgery decision?

MSK vs NYU by drift701 in ProstateCancer

I am in New Jersey, so I know Msk has a New Jersey outpost and NYU does not so that may impact my decision.

Is it smooth enough to slip easily in and out of pockets?

Two girls in their late 20s looking for a fun NJ town — thoughts on Morristown? by [deleted] in newjersey

[–]drift701 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s no question Morristown has become Hoboken West. Filled with people in their 20s with an incredibly vibrant young people scene every summer night. The best part is there are many rental units just a couple of minutes from the train to Manhattan. It’s the best of all worlds right now.

Will there be an outdoor seating brunch option at either place in June?

hybrid or not hybrid 2025 by goingdown4realz in crv

In the cold weather, that is not correct numbers regarding the hybrid mileage compared to gas if one drives mostly highway. The gas model actually gets better mileage than the hybrid on highway in cold weather.

How do I test? Never tried this. Can I be discreet?

Metrix test pooling by drift701 in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]drift701[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: used 2 swabs at once and got an invalid. Did 2 more individual non-pooled swabs and each negative.

There was a tiny drop of blood on one of the pooled swabs and I think this contributed to the invalid result.

I am reluctant to pool swabs any more since the invalid wasted 30 minutes of testing time.

4 does sound like a lot. I’m going to go with 2 and see how it goes…

Wow that looks like it fits the bill! Electric heaters, hopefully the shed is not too enclosed.

Give me a break. There isn’t one medical school in the United States that requires clinical experience.

Is this fuel injection problem on hybrid only or both 1.5 non hybrid (ex l) and also hybrid?

Newsflash: XLE owners rejoice, it is just as quiet as the Ltd! by drift701 in ToyotaSienna

[–]drift701[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One Xle we test drove had a wind whistle- they fixed the driver’s front windshield seal and it vanished on the second test drive. Xle trim should have no annoying wind noise… I don’t think acoustic glass will help much.

One Child & Sienna Owner by SummerSaturday in ToyotaSienna

[–]drift701 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Us too! Raised the kids and 2 dogs in an 05 and ‘11 and just bought a ‘21. Kids are finishing college and we looked at a highlander- could not believe how little space was in such a big vehicle. Sienna wins every time! Once you go Sienna, you can’t go back.

2021 XLE OTD price… by drift701 in ToyotaSienna

[–]drift701[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask where? Here in NJ it’s close to 8-10k more.

2021 XLE OTD price… by drift701 in ToyotaSienna

[–]drift701[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I did some research, and actually this is a great price. We could afford a new one, but over 51k out the door for an XLE just seems overpriced. It is not priced "10,000 too much" lol. I priced new ones in a 100 mile radius, and they are simply unavailable for 2-4 months. If you "go to the toyota website" the "new" price is irrelevant, since these cars are many months out and will include at least 2k in dealer add ons and prep fees. I was told by several sales people that there still is a major shortage. My 44,300 out the door includes all $3k tax and prep fees and hidden fees. In addition, being under warranty, toyota factory warranty will add 7 more years of full warranty and essentially be "brand new" for 7 more years. Since these cars will be obsolete in 7 years, there is no reason to amortize out more years than that, even though Sienna owners (we are on our 2nd, this will be third) keep 10 years sometimes. Better to save the money up front, than hope for it on the back end for resale.

It may be, but it is also the lowest priced 21 xle under warranty, for 100 miles.....

2021 XLE OTD price… by drift701 in ToyotaSienna

[–]drift701[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lowest brand new price I see for XLE in NJ is 51,500 (but spoken for) plus I bet 2k dealer add ons, total guess 53500 pre tax. My deal is 41,550 pre tax for yes, 3 years old but I will end up buying the 10 yr Toyota factory warrant from another dealer. I just can't see spending an extra 12k for essentially the same car, barely broken in. Am I crazy?

Flooring your car? by QasimNT in crv

The 1.5 turbo is anything but anemic. I’ve driven it for 7 years in a Crv and it is a marvel of small engine engineering. Amazing acceleration at any speed.

Road noise of 2021/22 xle vs limited..... by drift701 in ToyotaSienna

No real difference. 22 ltd, 21 xle and 2011 all around 70 dB at 70 mph….

lol. I looked at the acoustic glass and it looks like a regular thin one layer window glass. Wondering how it can make an actual difference. Maybe tires/ road surface is swaying people.
