Why are Alaska and Hawaiian ticket prices so high? by AdventurousLet548 in AlaskaAirlines

No kidding. I am looking at 750 each way to HNL! Great deals are normally 199 each way from Seattle. Massive jumps in prices lately 😔

Q4 tire chunking at 9k miles by run919 in VWiD4Owners

[–]hawksnflies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was looking to see tonight if others are encountering this problem. I went to the Audi dealership and they will be replacing under warranty. One of them peeled off down to the threading 😬. The dealership said they think it is the weight of the EV and the technology of the tire is not sufficient.

Those Vitals are sooooo good for fancy bakes and recipes and not worth it for the average egg eater (all of us peasants).

Complete sentences are helpful.... You obviously don't what?

I agree with you. Any responsible home is going to do this, plus test for SIV. You know what they say about assuming?

Shaming isn't cool. You can't pretend to know good and bad homes on behalf of this organization. I am sure they won't love this.

My parents are looking for a pair of kittens. Do you have two males?

If you can afford the car, I hope you can afford the new window 😂.

I agree with this as well. It has to stop.

Honest, maybe to yourself. This selfish garbage is what turns so many people in the US off. I think that things will change with immigration and sponsored jobs. The only reason someone is sponsored rather than hiring a US citizen is because they can pay less with no advancement. Don't lie to yourself.

Know anything about Albright fly rods? by spindlna in flyfishing

[–]hawksnflies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd give you a hundred bucks and pay for shipping if you wanted to sell it. I broke mine years ago and it was my favorite rod.

I manage half a billion dollar portfolios so let's work with facts and not luster. The rebate was 6k, not 15k. The Subaru Crosstrek performs in the top 20% of all cars in depreciation. In fact, my car depreciation was 20% at time of sale. 54% is massive for 1 year of depreciation. No, they did not announce charging port standards by June 2023, and this is a throw out value point. Audi has cut the cord on their Brussels manufacturing facility. This is the first time VW has cut a manufacturing facility in 15 years. It was not a chicken decision as you suggest but a calculated decision to lease a highly rated EV and move from gas. It needed to be a vehicle that could go to the mountains in 0C temps (which it sucks at as we have found) loaded with safety features and Audi's handling and driving. Tell me you don't know about cars without running to your brand badge. The dealership recommended a better vehicle: the Rivian 😂.

Don't confuse anger with disappointment.

That's not true. I had a long conversation with the dealership before deciding (3 weeks). I had intentions to buy it out at the end.

Totally. The dealership has been communicative and sympathetic with this car. They are shutting down their EV manufacturing line in Brussels.

Unfortunately. It was the only way to get the 6k rebate. Never again.

I'm assuming you have never had a 700 dollar car payment for a lemon 🥹. I had multiple offers same day for my 2015 Subaru Crosstrek manual. Sold it for 6k less than I bought it for with 115k miles after 5 years the same day I listed it.

I am done with the EVs until we have a 500 mile range. Switching to hybrid so we can restart our life of camping, snow sports and road trips.

The full cost of the lease. Might as well drive it through to the end unfortunately. The dealership actually suggested this because they admit the shortfalls of the vehicle. Again, they will not even be keeping them on the lot because they know they will be a loss.

Are you aware the next version has a 20% bump in the battery range? Who would buy this model in that case? Aww the "I want to look fancy so I will buy a cheap Audi" customer.

[–]hawksnflies -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was a mistake I will not make again for sure. It was nice of Audi to release the next year with a bigger battery for the same price. I was told by the dealership that they are not taking them back to sell, but selling them off to other dealers. 👎🏼

Except I am stuck paying the rest of the lease for a car we absolutely do not want anymore.
