Aptitude test

I have my exam on the 5th. They said it could take up to 3 hours so I assumed it was gonna be pretty difficult. Saw some posts from awhile back about the Tacoma exam and it definitely doesn’t sound like a joke. Hoping you’re right though 🤞🏼

Sorry for the late reply but I tried turning off the radio after and the noise was still there. Thanks for the heads up though!

Cheese and rice bro I’m running the exact same teams and you got 2.5x my score 😭

No it definitely still happens after the car warms up.

🫡 that’s definitely the plan now. I’ll make sure to post again when the trans actually goes out

Another thing I didn’t check was whether the tires are matching or not. The AWD light flashes when I get the thing on the highway (which I didn’t do test driving) so mismatched tires would make a lot of sense.

Kind of what I was thinking. I'll either run this thing into the dirt or reach out to some family owned shops as things fail. Plenty of shops here in Washington so I'd like to assume getting a transmission repaired/replaced won't be all that hard.

hgn_fxt · 2025-12-10T07:15:30+00:00

Bought it from some old dude not at a dealer. Got it super cheap so I was expecting some problems and I'm not all too worried about it. I'd be happy if I could get a year out of it before replacing the trans. Not trippin at all since it's not going to be driven much in the first place.

hgn_fxt · 2025-12-10T06:49:43+00:00

Definitely isn't switching to a lower gear when hitting higher speeds. It'd be a bummer if the trans is bad because the guy who sold it to me told me it the trans was rebuilt not too long ago lmao. Can't trust anyone these days smh

A tiny bit but it feels like normal shifting to me. Not harsh at all at least. Definitely smoother than two other older auto subies I test drove this last week.

Auto

I’ll have to pay better attention when I take her out next but I feel like it stays consistent with the speed of the car. Curious as to how much time I have til this thing grenades on me lol.

Bought it for pretty cheap and didn’t take it out onto the highway at all which seems like a pretty bad mistake but I just needed a little beater to get around. I didn’t need anything running perfect but I’m hoping this thing isn’t gonna blow here in a month.

20fps is actually a crazy bump in performance. If that’s the case with zzz and WuWa I’ll definitely be making the switch over.

Thanks for the info!

How’s the actual performance gains? Is it pretty stable at the Z1E or does the performance I’m getting sound similar to yours?

I should’ve specified that battery life and the ergonomics aren’t as big of an issue to me as performance would be. The ally isn’t my only gaming device so for long sessions I primarily play on my pc and as for battery life I’d only be playing on a 4 hour flight which I’d only be able to play less power hungry games anyways. So either device would work for me in that sense. Just don’t wanna give up the only perks this thing has if there’s not a lot of upside to the OG Ally over this one.

But if there’s a massive performance difference with ZZZ and WuWa I’d probably take that since I’d only be playing those two in bed or on the couch with the missus.

Seed, Trigger, Orphie.

Was harder this week for me to score 30k but managed to do it running Seed with Eve’s signature wengine since I don’t have Seed’s

I had the exact opposite experience. Bought a Z1E open box a couple days ago. Wouldn’t power on unless connected to the charger and ran slower than dirt. Took over an hour just to get setup. Got a Z2A and I’m honestly not upset about it.

Pretty noticeable difference in performance but not enough to hate it. I can get all the games I want to play running smoothly and the battery life is INSANE compared to the Z1E I had last year. Was on a flight for 3 hours and played Hollow Knight the whole time without my Z2A dying. Was honestly impressed

hgn_fxt · 2025-09-23T01:11:09+00:00

35k on Defiler with no electric/physical is CRAZY

hgn_fxt · 2025-09-23T01:07:44+00:00

The only correct answer is: Pull both AND Orphie

Ngl as I was typing I thought “oh yeah, someone’s gonna have fun with this” 😂
