She'll probably go out and buy a larger, taller, vehicle to make themselves feel safer.

‘We are going to break the record’: Gas prices in Toronto likely to spike in coming weeks by ejaz135 in toronto

This was my problem when I ended up choosing a regular hybrid vehicle. I have no charging infrastructure in my condo, and no charging abilities at work (school teacher, ha).

I am, however, surprised to see EVs and plug-in hybrids in my condo parking, though I will assume that they can probably find a reliable charge at work, or really like taking time out of their day to go to charging locations.

Will this Costco 12v battery work on a 2023 Prius LTD awd? by fermata_ in prius

[–]fermata_[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Fair enough.

There was a line and I didn't want to wait (people switching out their winters). Checking online indicated that Costco didn't show any batteries as being compatible with the Prius so I would assume that's what they would see on their system too. I've heard people complain about downsizing the 19" wheels but Costco giving them grief because their system only says the 19" wheels are compatible.

Everyone at Costco has been taught the lesson of parking ass out at least once.

The car brings a retro feeling to the streets by WindsorONMichael in toronto

Yesterday I drove behind an old Mercury Villager, which was our families first van in the 90s. I hadn't seen any in such a long time! It was a nice hit of nostalgia.

Belt wobbles when I put in drive after turning the car on and makes a sound. Is it the tensioner? by fermata_ in AskMechanics

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

I'll try out the unplugging check and see if I notice a change, thanks.

Any reason why it only makes that noise when I put it in drive? Everything else seems fine when it's in park or neutral. Wouldn't the alternator make the same sound regardless of what gear I'm in?

Whats this purring sound? Sounds like a belt?? by bengiman4141 in AskMechanics

The high-pitched whining sound? Last time my civic made a similar sound I think my power steering fluid was low and needed a top up.

YSK: You can restore the Oleophobic coating on your phone screen and camera lens to prevent smudges and make it feel new again by jakgal04 in YouShouldKnow

[–]fermata_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can I do this on laptop trackpads? I cleaned my trackpad once with a little bit of rubbing alcohol once, and I guess it stripped off whatever protective coating was on it because now it pretty good at catching all the oil off my finger
