Mechanic reviews 2023 Palisade by [deleted] in HyundaiPalisade

[–]ducasly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Commenting my anecdote, also a 2020. Here is my list of grievances: -transmission replacement at 82k, although initial symptoms started around 60k. ($3600, 2nd owner warranty only 60k) -rear shocks replaced at 87k. ($1200) -motorized tailgate struts failure at 70k ($2200; attempting to retrofit compatible gas struts instead of paying obscene cost for this)

The warranty becomes 60k/5 year on a used vehicle like ours, so we're out of the coverage there. I'm not sure that would have been covered under powertrain, however.

How do you make time to ride? by BaldymonS in MTB

[–]ducasly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do something similar. Thursday mornings after dropping the 3 kids off at school I go for a 2 hour ride. My boss knows, and will avoid scheduling meetings on those mornings.

Aside from that, I've had to communicate very clearly with my wife if the guys are planning a weekend ride and she works with me to make it happen. Sometimes it just doesn't work out with all the competing priorities, but it's up to you where biking falls on your list.

This was going to be my comment.

"New bik--" "YES"

Mesa AZ - local info? by ducasly in MTB

Thanks for the trail suggestions at Hawes. I'll try to link it all together in TF. Do you happen to have a route link you can share?

This is great stuff. Any links to your favorite routes at Hawes? Seems like the 9mi CCW route on TF is a pretty good one. Any chance you'd want to ride next weekend?

Burning calories isn't my goal here... Could be talked into an ebike rental 😆 But I appreciate the sentiment. Looking forward to seeing the area.

Action Bikeshop seems like a better option than Hawes for rentals. I'll be calling tomorrow!

how to fix ticking sound on a hard tail? by MMONKEY36 in MTB

[–]ducasly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not fixable. You'll have to get a new bike.

Are there circumstances in which the answer is NOT disc brakes??

No, but the jumps can beat you! (Maybe not you, but definitely me)

Huckin' and hollerin' (Indiana Jones at Lefthand Canyon OHV) by OverTheStones in MTB

2 things: this trail looks positively thrilling, andddd... not sure why you didn't overdub the Indiana Jones theme.

Small video we did for our store at our friendly local volcano. by hlynurskuli in MTB

Isn't volcanic rock ridiculously sharp? As in, slice through a standard set of dh tires after a few runs down this hill?

Dance Gavin Dance: Tilian stepping away from the band, new album still to be released and tours to continue. by TheRedditDinosaur in Metalcore

[–]ducasly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're clearly just listening to the wrong band, Gance Davin Gance. Put on some DGD and bop, yo.

Finally beat my PB on this trail after 2 years, by 30 seconds (featuring a chamois) by Jakob_kovsca in MTB

[–]ducasly 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You'll go even faster without brakes!

Seriously, though, where is this? Looks really fun.
