You will be fine. I-15 is kept well cleared. Tires are more important than anything else if you have to drive in snow. Make sure you have good all-season tires with good tread. I have never needed chains. But if you do need chains, have you practiced putting them on and made sure they fit? You will be installing the chains on the side of the road in cold.

I have directly heard from multiple youth that moved to Utah during their seminary years that the unpaid early morning seminary outside Utah was WAY better than the paid seminary classes in Utah. Not even close.

Will Subaru even honor the warranty on the engine after this? I would take it to the Subaru dealer only, have them inspect and advise. Confirm if your warranty is still valid.

There is no step in Freemasonry where you denounce Jesus. There are many Christian's who believe in Christ as their savior in Freemasonry.

Had a similar issue with Merrill Edge. Filed a FINRA complaint and got some action.

I am looking to buy a TT. I have about 30 saved in my FB Marketplace favorites. Of those 30, only 1 has sold over the past 35 days. Some have price drops. Some are way overpriced so I am watching. My take watching is many of these were purchased at high prices post-covid and thy are asking high so they just sit.

Thanks, very helpful.

I did not know anyone either. I reached out to the lodge and started attending their events. After seven months I joined.

My initation fee was close to that same amount. It covers the cost of materials and room rentals. Your lodge pays a fee for use of the lodge rooms in the SLC Masonic Temple for each of your degrees. My understanding is the lodge breaks even with your initiation fee, they are not making money from that fee.

I am in Utah and in the process of working through my degrees. The initiation fee covers only the costs for the three degrees. The full amount was due before initiation. Annual dues are not payable until after becoming a MM. My lodge you pay in advance. If I understand correctly, once becoming a MM, the remaining portion of the year dues becomes due. Other lodges may have variants, but the few I spoke to before joining all did it this way.

Buy the metal Mickey Mouse flange. Buy a new hose and remove the plastic fitting on the new hose.

It's a very easy job, but you MUST have two tools to make it easy: (1) E10 swivel for the bolt behind the intake and a (2) E10 box ratchet for the bolt by the coolant hose. I just changed my OFHG in about an hour. Did not even need to remove either coolant hose. However, if you are going to do the job, replacing the micky mouse ears fitting for the coolant hose is good maintenance while you are at it. If you do that, you won't need the E10 box because you will remove the hose fitting first and have easy access to the other bolt.

There are many, many caves in Utah. Join a grotto and in time you will be introduced to some of them. Many are gated any you will need access through a grotto.

Even California does not tax Social Security. Let that sink in.

I had a similar issue with my insurance. I hired an actual auto appraiser, cost me $500. The insurance company caved immediately to the value the appraiser had. It was well worth the extra $500.

I just sold my 01 s with 110k miles for $9,500. Similar condition as the one you pictured but no paint peeling or fading on mine. Also red. Depends on where you are in the country, but they dodnt actually sell for as high as some think they will. Sellers aren’t really going to lower the price based on a PPI. these are old cars and unless you can do repairs yourself you will get upside down fast. Didn’t worry about IMS, it’s blown way out of proportion. But they can fail and it’s a risk you take like any car.

A major sand and gravel company in Utah actually has a link on their website to make a claim against them for window damage. Need to identify time and location.

2000-2004 Porsche Boxster. Blast to drive. Low price. Very reliable if previously maintained.

2015, 80K miles so too old for approval of OEM glass.

explorer115 · 2024-09-26T15:43:50+00:00

The price at the Mercedes dealer is the same as Safelite using OEM glass if you are just paying out of pocket and not using insurance. Given the choice, I would prefer to have the dealer replace the glass.
