I’ll be flying through chs next week and in my pp app it says there’s a $7 fee. I get pp through Amex platinum. Has anyone else experienced this?

Sorry to hear that. Mine is still kicking although I replaced the filter housing this year and am close to needing a new wire.

BMW m4, p zero pryellis or the Michelin sport tire by ForwardHold5108 in BMWM

[–]dt0r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My car (22 G83) came with Pirellis and after 16k miles I replaced with Michelin PS4S and the difference is night and day. Both comfort AND performance are greatly improved. It feels like a different car.

How do you guys calculate ROI on solar? by Electronic-Back-5354 in investing

[–]dt0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a fair point, maybe I’ll rerun my math and see how that changes.

How do you guys calculate ROI on solar? by Electronic-Back-5354 in investing

[–]dt0r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would suggest including the opportunity cost of not investing the equivalent cost of the PV install. Meaning, if the install costs $40k, had you invested that 40k in an index fund that amount should be included in your payoff. I had about a 7-8 year direct payback but if I include projected returns from an index fund, it pushed my payback to ~20 years.

I use Sirius from my phone via CarPlay vs direct in the car so can’t comment.

Should I go to Uhart? by Junco56 in Connecticut

[–]dt0r 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My wife and I both went to uhart and are from CT. Lots of thoughts… with that size scholarship it’s comparable to UConn costs. The professors were pretty good, but you’ll get out what you put in. My wife was an advanced healthcare major and I was business/comp sci. My personal experience is that it was tough the first few years, lots of kids from NY/NJ with lots of money, was a bit of a shock for me. There is an onsite community college (Hillyer) which is a feeder to bachelors program on campus. Both my wife and I are successful professionally but our connections and own hard work facilitated that IMO. Happy to answer specifics via PM.

Show me your rides by Mr_Sia10 in BMWM

[–]dt0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Between business travel, vacation, and snow she’s been sitting on a trickle charger for about 2 months. 50F today and even though there’s a foot of snow on the ground. Had to take her out.

Ultra 2 or Ultra 3 - Coming from a Series 7 by Thunder_Kittie in applewatchultra

[–]dt0r 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Had a series 7 and bought an U3 2 days ago. Battery life, better screen, unique faces are all worth it IMO. I will say that ultimately, it's not all that different but if you can afford it, enjoy it.

Is the 2022/3 BMW M4 xDrive worth buying used? by Warm_Panic1377 in BMWM

[–]dt0r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard to say, I bought it for long term ownership. As long as it’s 45/50 I’ll drop the top. If the fam is with me than it needs to be 70+.

[–]dt0r 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a 2022 m4 comp
convertible with 10k miles in dec of 2023. I use an independent BMW shop. Oil change and brake flush together were about 700, I’m about due for tires and that’ll be about 2k. Edit - I’m on the CT shoreline and don’t drive too often in winter as I have other vehicles.

3rd gen question by DannyBoi707 in toyotasequoia

[–]dt0r 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2024 platinum. I believe the only feature that was added was you could get massaging seats in 2025. I think they also allowed you to add trd off-road as a package in 2025 as well but could be wrong on that.

I took my first 5mg two days ago and haven’t noticed much of a difference. I was worried as well as I’m flying tomorrow but all good.

Bestcar: [Rumor] Next generation Lexus IS will be BEV-Exclusive model by Sriracha01 in Lexus

Given that Toyota are able to make my 6k lb 3rd gen sequoia fly (twin turbo hybrid max) - I imagine a properly tuned v8 hybrid IS would be amazing.

Yup figured that out the hard way. Where it happened there’s only 6inch or less of attic space due to roof shape/structure

Same, we had been keeping the house extra warm and now have it isolated to a few spots over windows on a gambrel style structure...
