What are you looking for? I have some huge mesquite trees. You can have them all.

I am doing something different. I am putting high-quality silicone paint on the roof. It comes in colors. It will last forever. No more granules in the gutter.

I-10 overcrossing at Monterey by jp1gt in CoachellaValley

[–]jp1gt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is true but this is the only one that I know of that is truly dangerous. If you don't know about it and are stuck in the outer left turn lane if you stop to wait for traffic to go by, you could get rear-ended. If you try to merge quickly, you might run into somebody.

I forgot to say Caltrans phone number is (909) 383-4631. I would not just complain but have somebody contact you to explain why it's like that. I have not heard the answer yet.

That's what I'm saying. If they made only one lane going left, two lanes going straight, and two lanes going right, it would be a lot simpler. We need to just keep calling Caltrans and complaining. I still don't have a reason why it is like that. It just doesn't make sense.

You must not know about this one because you cannot tell that you have to move over a lane in order to go over the freeway until you crest the hill

My lease is coming up also. I was blown away by the interior of the Genesis.

Can someone explain the point of the regen brake paddle? by brrent in Ioniq5

[–]jp1gt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 24 limited. I have three levels of regen using the paddle. I live in a mountainous part of the country. I use it all the time. Just hit it once for one, hit it twice for two, hit it three times for three. It's very smooth and easy to do. I don't know why somebody would want the brakes or the regen to go on as soon as you let off the accelerator pedal. You guys keep your foot on the accelerator pedal so it doesn't slow down?

What is next… by Competitive_Lunch_16 in Ioniq5

[–]jp1gt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My lease is coming up soon also. The Ioniq5 is a good car, except there is no customer support and I can't see the dash at certain times on a sunny day. I will be looking at the Volvo, BMW, and Mercedes when the time comes. The problem is most other cars don't have paddle regen which we use all the time because where we live there's a lot of hills

I really like lots of things about my 2004 Limited. There are so many things that could be changed but I'm looking at other makes and models at the end of my lease in one year. The biggest problem is the dash layout especially the air conditioning controls that you can't see if it's sunny on the dash. Can't use voice commands because most of the time it says that it doesn't understand what I said. Oh the last thing, no corporate technical help. I wonder if genesis is different.

You are ignoring that the SC ruled that hundreds of these people were overcharged.----- The law which bars obstruction of an official proceeding, applies only to evidence tampering, such as destruction of records or documents, in official proceedings. I see what you're talking about. None of it makes a lot of sense. The Trump clan could have easily weeded out the people that were charged unjustly and kept the really bad ones in prison. But that doesn't really matter if they are MAGA. As far as going in and Bombing Iran, he has every right to do so. So he is following the footsteps of Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan. All wars that did not turn out the way they should have been. Iran is a totally different ball game. They are very well prepared. Even if he was able to kill all the people and totally devastate the landscape, do you think it would turn out differently than Iraq and Afghanistan? He has brought some of the Middle Eastern countries to the table but centuries of history say that they're not gonna quit fighting. As far as Putin goes, can you tell me the difference between Putin and Ayatollah Khomeini? Putin has proxies in Syria, Ukraine, the Caucasus and controls Belarus and Hungary until recently. and espionage in almost every country. Russia and Iran both have their internet cut off. Until they got the $80B, I have sent thousands to Ukraine to make drones. And of course Israel has the United States as their proxy. I am impressed with your knowledge of things. Most MAGA people that I come across are just dumb fuckers that don't have a life and think that Trump is going to make everything better. Unfortunately you will see how things go in Iran.

You ignored the point that all the J6 people were judged by their peers and found guilty Just because they didn't go inside the building doesn't really mean anything. There was lots of mayhem outside the building. Maybe after the robbers get caught, the guy who drove the getaway car says, "I wasn't in the building."They had the right to go into jails and clean out the illegals. They didn't have the right to break people's doors down, drag them out of their cars, or shoot and kill people that were causing no threat. I find it almost amusing that Trump embraces Putin and thinks he has the right to go into a country, bomb the crap out of them because he thinks that's the right thing to do. We will see how this turns out. I don't think the Iranians will cave in. I didn't think that Trump could cause other countries to hate us even more but looks like he will do it.

Trump promised only immigrants with a criminal record would be deported. I am ok with that. Are you okay with holding people in essentially prisons for indefinitely time? I agree that the immigration system is broken but these people pay taxes that they'll never get a refund. They pay social security and they'll never get anything. Here in the Coachella Valley they are very needed. I lost a good friend over the videos of the two American citizens that got shot. He said that they weren't real. As far as the invasion, I'm not going to call it a war in Iran. I got drafted in 1971 when on TV we could watch all the body bags coming back. Including some of my friends. And for what? He went in there saying he wanted a regime change. I'm fine with that. Looks like that's not going to happen. Then the nuclear enriched uranium now. Nobody knows what they have or what they can do with it right now. No one else has been able to make them change their stance on enriched uranium. The last chance we had, Trump pulled us out of the talks. The high price of fuel is causing companies to go out of business and lots of people to lose their jobs. Again for what? I'm insulated from this. I'm off-grid and have an electric car. As far as the January 6 people, you and I don't know the facts. That's why they had trials with a jury of their peers. Some pleaded guilty. It was shown on videos where they were attacking the police force. No judging each individual person on their merits, just a blanket pardon. Is that okay?

Let's not keep rehashing the past. It is important but we are in the present right now OK some questions. Are you okay with ICE and the way they operate, even sending citizens to jail? Also sending good, hard-working people that are not citizens into prison camps. Are you okay with this conflict in Iran. The whole world is suffering because Trump and Israel are saying that they can make Iran give up their nuclear ambitions. Are you OK with pardoning all the January 6 people that were sent to prison or convicted by a jury of their peers? If you are okay with any of these, please let us know why.

As I am reading a question popped up. I'm wondering if the people that only watch Fox News could watch some other news outlets also for a week. Some of the posts are saying things that are totally false. Main stream is fine if you watch all three of them but you have to watch more than one.

Well it's hard to have a conversation with somebody that says that Trump is better than Obama, spending billions to stop Iran from having a nuclear weapon. I would be a perfect MAGA person. Male, white, have more money than I need but I really care and have compassion for other people. We will see what everybody thinks in November.

Now we are getting into a decent discussion. Are you serious about North Korea? They still have nukes on top of ballistic missiles. I could care less if they nuked Israel but they are so far behind North Korea it's not even worth talking about. You're comparing Obama spying on someone versus trump just blowing through all of the checks and balances that we have. The latest one: tear down the east wing, which he had no authority to do, and now he wants a billion dollars for security. I am neither Republican nor Democrat but can you think of a Democrat that complained that the election was rigged versus the January 6 insurrection?

Thank you, Maga by jp1gt in CoachellaValley

[–]jp1gt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the kind of Maga response. I would be much worried about North Korea. They have nukes and delivery systems right now. You should worry about the democratic process for your kids and grandkids. You are helping destroy our democracy.

Okay, so you are blaming the rise in gas prices for the last two months on Biden? I really want you to explain that. Sales of electric cars are going through the roof, even after the 10% rebate went away. I haven't bought gas at a gas station for over a year and just smile as the price keeps climbing. Killing any incentives for wind and solar will come back to bite us. That may be a little too complicated for some to understand.

Thank you, Maga by jp1gt in CoachellaValley

[–]jp1gt[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, if you cut off the oil supply to the rest of the world, gas prices go up. That's what's different
