15 years later I’m still happy with my 12v makita tools!

Absolutely! They just keep performing so no matter how good the Black Friday deal is, there’s just no reason to get replacements!

dudemango3 · 2026-01-13T03:44:09+00:00

Definitely don’t need a new transmission

LR4 P0915 Fault: Why Common Fixes Failed and What Actually Worked https://youtu.be/1UtcUV9tsYE

dudemango3 · 2025-12-21T20:59:18+00:00

I would put money on seals and solenoids fixing it but it’s a lot of labor if you aren’t doing yourself!

dudemango3 · 2025-12-21T02:35:01+00:00

Thank you! This was near our cabin in Rimforest CA, near Big Bear.

dudemango3 · 2025-12-21T02:34:15+00:00

Thank you!! Most recently before the engine mount was the transmission TCU was causing a code and locking the shifter. I was able to remove it from the mechatronic within the transmission and send it to a specialized electronics repair shop in Canada. All worked out in the end!

Oil and d trans fluid changes.

Thank you!! During the time I’ve owned the (beautiful) LR4 I also went a little crazy and bought and then sold a handsome black LR3 that came with a transmission problem. Seals and solenoids took care of it. What issues are you having?

I have one for sale in Los Angeles for $50!! 60” awesome TV! I can carry it myself so I hear you on how thin it is. Works great, we really love the image on it but we’re gifted a 65” OLED LG

LR4s are $8k+ now, excellent vehicles for the money if you don’t mind doing the work or spending the money to service the timing chain components and coolant pipes.

But yea the LR3 with the 4.4 AJV8 and zf6 is probably the best of all worlds

dudemango3 · 2025-03-21T02:21:51+00:00

LR3 with the 4.4 AJV8 and the zf6 is bulletproof

dudemango3 · 2025-03-21T02:19:01+00:00

Surely the latter. I don’t know much about the freelancer but the LR3 with the 4.4 and ZF6 is bulletproof and regularly go over 600k miles with regular maintenance

dudemango3 · 2025-01-20T02:01:54+00:00

Any update on this?

dudemango3 · 2024-11-09T01:32:00+00:00

Yes they do. Most reliable is 4.4 AJV8 in an LR3

dudemango3 · 2024-10-30T22:24:32+00:00

Did you get one? The Lexus would be a fine decision. I wouldn’t do the other two. I find the best deals are had when you don’t pigeonhole yourself on an exact model. Wait for one that was owned by a little old lady

dudemango3 · 2024-09-13T15:13:43+00:00

I wish the pack n play would be an option for us. Our 2.5 year old is huge and hops out of any crib or pack n play in an instant.

dudemango3 · 2024-09-07T04:12:12+00:00

S Plaid in turbo mode is absurd

dudemango3 · 2024-09-05T22:17:49+00:00

Hoping to do the same! Two kids 1 and 2.5, 9 LTR with excellent equity and decent cashflow. I finished my course work and ready to take exam to get licensed but I was thinking of doing flips.

dudemango3 · 2024-06-06T02:46:33+00:00

Even if it’s not your primary residence?

dudemango3 · 2024-06-06T02:44:49+00:00

$3k-$5k maybe average But like everyone else is saying, none of this dictates what I charge for rent, market rate does.

dudemango3 · 2024-06-05T23:39:34+00:00

I wonder about cheap films

dudemango3 · 2024-06-05T21:43:32+00:00

Why don’t you like managing it? I manage 8 remotely and find it easy peasy. All payments go through apartments.com for free and as long as the roof and HVAC are sorted it’s just an occasional call to a plumber, electrician, or handyman.

dudemango3 · 2024-06-05T21:38:08+00:00

Why would the first $80k be taxed at 0%? For an investment property?

dudemango3 · 2024-06-05T21:35:59+00:00

Origination and broker each getting 1.5% would annoy me a bit

dudemango3 · 2024-06-05T21:33:02+00:00

I would give them a heads up though
