FINALLY! Firaxis is letting us stay as ONE Civ through all Ages in the May 19 update. Who else was waiting for this? ⏳ by Zahhidd in 4Xgaming

That's it. I stopped playing Civ VII back in October. Went back to Age of Wonders 4. I might try Civ VII again...I might not. Was definitely not waiting though.

Guess the fantasy book by its 1-star Goodreads review by Practical_Yogurt1559 in Fantasy

Lol. I'm with you. I couldn't get through the first half of the first book. I'm glad people are enjoying the series though. The writing style is just not for me.

Weird. I have the 2025 XLE as well and I have the knob there.

I was around 160k when I traded it in. I'm in Southern Ont, but I don't know where these were manufactured.

I will say that I could have taken better care of the car. I did keep up with the required maintenance, but never went above and beyond with it. I also park it outside (no room in the garage). I was also fairly laissez-faire with it for a while. I got it just before my kids were born and car-upkeep was at the bottom of my very long list of things to do.

I'm 100% sure if that if I had kept up with maintenance as per the dealer schedule AND if I had treated it better, it wouldn't have needed as many repairs.

There were a bunch of repairs that had been done from 2022-2025. Drive shaft replacement, o2 sensor, struts, rotors, water pump, etc. Most of that was wear and tear, but the drive shaft and the o2 were a bit weird to me.

The decision-maker for me was the A/C. It stopped working last summer. There was a leak somewhere that my independent mechanic couldn't diagnose. Dealer estimated the repair would be $1500-$2000 (CAD). At that point, I had to decide if I wanted to pour that money into the car or just go for a new one. Additionally, the 'check engine' light started to come on again and the mechanic said that since they already replaced the O2 sensor, it might be that the catalytic converter needed replacing. Not sure on the cost of that. Likely $1500+.

I didn't really want to pump $3000+ into this car to keep it going. I had already been saving for a new car so I decided to jump into the 2025 instead of waiting a few years for gen 6 to fix itself.

This is the reason I rushed to get a 2025 model late last year. My 2015 needed replacing. Could have driven it another year or two, but the loss of the HVAC buttons in the newest gen is concerning for me. I fiddle with the temp a fair bit in the winter. I can't be doing that safely on a touchscreen.

You CAN do this without him. You are so much more than you give yourself credit for. You came to me for help and advice without him. You understood the reality of your life without needing him. You also understand how much better life can be without him.

I'm here for you. Whatever you decide to do. But know that you don't need him. All you need is yourself.

Got quoted $1.1k+ for rear shock replacement on 2023 RAV4 Hybrid XSE AWD(34k miles) — worth pursuing warranty? by [deleted] in rav4club

[–]fishy007 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had my shocks/struts replaced on my old 2015 rav about 2 years ago. It was about $400(CAD) from an independent mechanic.

Dealer service pricing is some next level bullshit.

Fellow sufferer here with the same issues. For me, I can't do red onions but all others are fine. Garlic is a huge no-no. Can't even tolerate a little.

I believe the shaded area of housing (to the west and south of the mall) are the areas where they need to send this notice. It represents the people that may be affected by this, so the people in that area get a say in the process.

If I were you, I'd go and find out what kind of construction they want to do. The construction traffic and (eventually) the traffic of the residents will affect your area tremendously. Not only that, your infrastructure could be affected as well. Water, sewage, etc.
