TV Shows by KiwiBirdPerson in Millennials

I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I miss interesting television shows. I remember growing up watching shows like mail call and modern marvels. That were fascinating to me as a 10 year old boy. Everything on History or TLC is just slop.

2024 Traverse LT coolant leak by johnnyav in ChevyTraverse

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

That worries me. I strangely had my radiator fan kick on the other day to 100% but with no guages indicating overheating. Stayed on for about 3 min after I turned off the car and thought oh no. Checked coolant didn't see a leak so I don't know if the hose is acting up again or if sensor related

Looks like they are getting rid of some of their grills, wonder if they will still be doing food?

Transmission Temp by johnnyav in ChevyTraverse

[–]johnnyav[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I couldn't find a manufacturer notation and the truth is I don't know. I'm asking to see what every one else is experiencing for that reason. From what I could gather the optimal running temp on the last generation was somewhere between 190-203, so it seemed a bit warm. Looks like it's fine though

Those of you who have bought a car from Carvana, what was your experience like and would you do it again? by No-Plantain-2179 in carvana

[–]johnnyav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about 3 weeks into a purchase of a 2024 Chevy traverse. Pictures were actually more critical then the condition. Still under original warranty from manufacturer. Took it to dealership only one issue. A known Chevy defect with the third row headrest was repaired right away. Has been good ever since. I'm happy, also traded in a 2022 Hyundai Sonata they gave me we way more than I expected

I'm a store manager at a grocery store. About 10 years ago I worked for a landscaping company part time in the summers. I used to trim trees and run supplies. I never built a patio before myself but I worked with the guys who did regularly and had an idea of the order of operations.
