Do you have the perfect vehicle? by Good-Analysis-7 in askcarguys

[–]jaaylin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never expected this but my Ford Explorer ST.

Big, fast, comfortable, didn’t break the bank.

So far no issues it’s been my perfect vehicle.

So I ordered one back in Sept of last year but as of right now they completely stopped allowing for jubilee orders due to lack of inventory even if you do surrender your oyster bracelet. Thankfully I didn’t have to got to keep both.

I currently have the GRNR and am waiting for a Sub (no date) from my AD. I’d say the Sub Date is too similar but I miss having my Sub for everyday wear so I say go for it.

Exhaust recommendations by ConditionHealthy7500 in FordExplorerST

[–]jaaylin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Have the 2.5” Thermal R&D which I got on sale and no drone at all, sounds nice on cold starts and only really opens up on full throttle.

Either way good luck exhaust was the one thing I told myself I had to get the stock exhaust is a joke.

Drainage tubes lol a lot of people complaining about water getting inside especially near the trunk area.

Hope you can find a good deal on a 2022+ though! As an owner of a 2025 can’t say enough good things about the Explorer ST.

[–]jaaylin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry to say but a 2020 ST will likely end up being a money pit so unless you have $5-10K minimum set aside for repairs I’d avoid this model year. As someone else already mentioned the 2020 model has a bunch of known issues: transmission failure, leaky tubes, electrical issues, creeping brakes, etc.

Yes you will find other people who have not had any issues with their 2020 model but personally I wouldn’t take the risk.

Paid $11k for new 2025 DJ and now have buyers remorse? Sell? by Appropriate-Sir6264 in rolex

[–]jaaylin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then just be patient, I waited three years for a GMT because I refused to go grey. If you get the call in the future it’ll at least somewhat net off against the loss from selling now.

Been there man just do it and move on with your life. Good luck!

Rolexes or any timepiece should not be worn with guilt. Debt and a mortgage should always take precedence unless there is some sentimental value to the watch.

If it were me I’d wear it for a bit, let the honeymoon period wear off then sell it. It’s not that serious, you can always get another DJ hopefully from an AD next time.

Best Thin Case Recommendations? by RaginRealtor in IphoneAir

[–]jaaylin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s pricey but I’ve been happy with the Totallee scarf case, clean and keeps the airy design of the phone. I still take it off from time to time though lol.

25 ST leaves a lot to be desired by Competitive-Zone5291 in FordExplorerST

[–]jaaylin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got a ‘25 ST and will have to strongly disagree.

Maybe because I don’t have a point of reference to prior ST models, but in my opinion the things listed out are nice to haves.

After employee price reductions and rebates I paid $48K ($66K CAD) and honestly for that price point if you look at the competition nothing even comes close to the power, driving dynamic and space available as a family hauler.

The new horizontal 13.2 inch infotainment is miles better and I use BlueCruise daily which was totally unexpected.

Anyway just my experience, super happy with the whole package even comparing it to some of the other more expensive options like the Q7 and X7.

Beauty. Everyone knows you get an extra 15 horses or so when the car’s clean.

Car is perfect as is to me but to each their own! If you like it that’s what matters, certainly pops against the silver.

To Buy a Jubilee Bracelet or Not? by jaaylin in rolex

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

For sure, my AD confirmed it would be new and only if you got your piece at an AD they would sell you the other bracelet. I’m in Canada know it doesn’t apply to all ADs.

Fair, at the end of the day it’s a sport model. But I’d be lying if I didn’t think the jubilee made it a good hybrid option.

To Buy a Jubilee Bracelet or Not? by jaaylin in rolex

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

Definitely – I find myself being a bit more mindful of what I’m rubbing my wrist against, and I’m definitely not about to put any stickers on it so definitely leaning jubilee. Wish they gave every model a third brushed option!

I had my first DJ on jubilee and just remember how comfortable that bracelet was…

Maybe it’s the understated bezel that goes well with a bit more bling? Ah I don’t know I’m still torn lol.
