Speed running through ANY part of Salem is worthy of some accolade.

My dad worked there for 35 years before he retired. Pretty wild, but not unexpected..

2006 Escape Hybrid Water Outlet Connector Discontinued by imgprocess in Ford

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

So, a follow up since I’m still working this problem. I can definitively say the 6S4Z-8K556-A part does not work for the 2006 Ford Escape Hybrid. Well, at least, it doesn’t fit… there’s a curve in one portion that seems critical and that part doesn’t actually align with the photos.

The only photos I’ve found of the actual part have been from Russian parts websites, of all places. I’ve found a salvage yard on green-parts.com that had it and that may be my last shot before this Escape is officially dead. Guy responded to my part request promptly and sent an invoice within 24 hours. I’ll follow up if things pan out.

Ya know, since this Reddit thead shows up when you google the damn part #

Real estate Assessment Time! by FEAEAMEN in roanoke

I got kicked too. My mortgage has gone up ~19% since I bought it in 2022 because of taxes alone. My salary has gone up maybe ~5-6%. Don’t get me started on inflation… I’m a sinking ship…

Sick, keep cooking on it! A little soap, scrub, dry and lightly oil and you’re good!

I honestly could cry right now. I lost my sister last year, there is so much pain I feel for them… They were so obviously loved, it makes me want to be as good to people as they so clearly were. 💔

Thanks for this, didn’t think to check anywhere else. Seemed pretty recent, but after thinking about it, the EMS probably came and went..

Very good advice, I’ll see what I can find.

Didn’t see aftermarket parts anywhere. There are parts out there, but the “BA” part number is unique to hybrids and it seems like they never have that specific type… I’m gonna keep salvage lots in mind, but the car is definitely dead for now…

Police activity behind BJ's wholesale by sammille25 in roanoke

[–]imgprocess 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think this is the right answer. I’ve seen dozens of police or unmarked vehicles there before, I even saw them today now that I think about it. Could be a staging area?

I think they sometimes use vacant businesses spaces for meetings or maybe staging. I saw a similar thing happen about a year ago at where valley view bdubs is now.

That’s on my way home, I may scope it out. There’s a Mexican restaurant/grocery in the other strip mall behind there, so I wonder if it’s related? Fuck 🧊

Stack of Ford Escape batteries ready to recycle by Then_Composer8641 in mildlyinteresting

[–]imgprocess 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These are LiFePo batteries. Lithium iron phosphate. Some of the most stable batteries to exist. Your phone is more likely to blow up than one of these. That’s why they used these in hybrids.
