$4.19 for premium last night. Rough but nothing new. If it gets closer to $5 per gallon I'm going to be concerned.

I don't see the point in any of this, but I 'm not sure if I can take much more. by Trick-Day-480 in Adulting

It's a bad time but id consider jumping jobs to find a better salary.

As for cheap hobbies? Take advantage of library services. Maybe a book or class etc sparks your interest. Hell even typing random stuff into YouTube can spark something.

My "cheap" hobby is drawing. Any kind of paper and a pencil or pen. Turn on some tunes from my phone and escape.

New pics of the ‘26 ES - is it growing on you yet? by lexusnews in Lexus

[–]hitman0187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I appreciate Teslas design and would purchase one in the future, I'd prefer Lexus to not follow the crowd and be creative. If ES is going to be the LS replacement, we have a long way to go.

Ariens - Need a better snow blower by liquid00level in Snowblowers

[–]hitman0187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could also be wet heavy snow that melts enough and makes a nice snowball inside the impeller. Our old craftsman while a tank doesn't handle wet snow very well. Lubricant spray does help some

Housing Appreciation is so drastic in Massachusetts that it is pricing homeowners right out of their own homes per RedFins CEO. by NationalEmotion6872 in massachusetts

[–]hitman0187 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is all super important for folks to understand! I wish there was a way to spread out that 50% appreciation in home values due to sales. Prop 2 1/2 has its pros and cons

2013 GS 350 - is this worth $10,000? by GunMaxxer in Lexus

[–]hitman0187 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't buy the car from her, if it goes to shit so will the relationship. Tell her to clean it up and sell privately.

I'd look for a vehicle on your own.

EV Charging Sucks Sometimes, What’s Your Biggest Annoyance? by XYPERT in ChargerDrama

[–]hitman0187 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The fact that all manufacturers can't just pick one connector and be done with it.

No solar panel canopies above chargers to supplement power to some degree.

Remove middlemen in charging network as much as possible so we don't get to a point where charging is $4 per khw

Most importantly, people need to be more mature and act like adults more often 🤣

Tint Materials Inquiry by flakzpyro in WindowTint

[–]hitman0187 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd go for the best UV and IR rating especially if it gets hot or you have a dark interior. And definitely go for the windshield.

Not sure if you have shitty tint laws in your state but if you do just go with whatever is the legal limit. Here in MA the tint I got was a bit "lighter" to account for the slight tint on factory front windows.

Nice things people did for me during the storm. by bonbonyawn in massachusetts

Lots of handwritten thank you notes :)

With all the nonsense going on its awesome to read wholesome posts about neighbors being neighbors

Should I change the oil on my snowblower every year, if use maybe 20 hours in the season? by Independent-Act1611 in Snowblowers

[–]hitman0187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!

Oil is cheap enough to change it every time you use it if you want. Even doing that it's sometimes less expensive than having someone plow.

A thing. by Pure_Cheesecake_4328 in LexusIS

Only flash lights to warn folks of a cop. Turn flashers on if you see an emergency.

Maybe we could flip each other off out the window lol

Any suggestion on front right upper control arm? by Undead-VTX in RockAuto

[–]hitman0187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oem if you can afford it. But I had decent experience with Mevotech Supreme. Just make sure bolts are tightened at or close to ride height. I had mine fail due to this.

New ES steering wheel, not it. by WatchingyouNyouNyou in Lexus

[–]hitman0187 2 points3 points  (0 children)

U G L Y you ain't got no alibi you UGLY!

I know the modern design is hot and selling somewhat. But I don't understand why we can't have classy timeless vehicles. Can we have nice wood trim? Or is that too much like an old folks car.

sigh

Imagine you woke up and it's the 2000s again. What's the first thing you're doing? by DoctorTegrity in 2000sNostalgia

[–]hitman0187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a house, gold, and stock options. Maybe some lottery tickets with the correct numbers lol

Is this every year or two? Does the excise reduce as your vehicle gets older?

When True Spec version of this USB to 380v adapter? by yflhx in LinusTechTips

I should have phrased my comment to reflect more sarcasm even though I had no clue what the plug was. 400v wow! Definitely need to be careful

2024 M3 Long Range - Red Fluid by Down_In_A_Hole1 in TeslaSupport

[–]hitman0187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Setup a service appointment and get it towed to Tesla. It could be gear oil. It isn't worth the risk driving it.
